  1. 🚀🌕 Oh, look! Another *revolutionary* article about the #Moon, because surely no one has ever thought to look up before! 🙄 Apparently, dragging around a 3D model is the new cutting-edge way to feel like an #astronaut, minus the cool space suit and zero-gravity hair. 🛰️✨

  4. 'Mittelalterlich' #FotoVorschlag

    An der Kathedrale in Salamanca (Spanien, erbaut im 12.-14. Jahrhundert) prangt ein Stein-Astronaut an der einen Pforte. Keine mittelalterliche Figur, sondern ein Witz der Steinmetze, die bei einer Restaurierung 1992 in Erinnerung an Juri Gagarin, diese Figur erschaffen und eingesetzt haben.

    Passt vielleicht auch zur momentan laufenden Weltraummission.

  5. Ich mochte den #Marsianer als Buch und Film sehr, der #Astronaut (bzw. #ProjectHailMary ) ist vergleichsweise enttäuschend. Romantischer Kitsch, schwülstigen Engelschöre, "unrealistische" SF und nur wenige originelle Einfälle. Ich rate ab, trotz Quasi-Empfehlung durch #minkorrekt .

  6. Growing Salty

    Ngangla Ringco sits atop the Tibetan Plateau, breaking up the barren landscape with eye-catching teal and blue. This saline lake sits at an altitude of 4,700 meters, fed by rainfall, Himalayan runoff, and melting glaciers and permafrost. The lake, like many inland bodies of salt water, has no outflow. Instead, water evaporates from the lake, leaving behind any salts that were dissolved in it. Over time, those left-behind salts build up and make the lake ever saltier.

  7. This Company Wants to Build a #Space Station That Has #ArtificialGravity
    Founded by crypto bro and programmer #JedMcCaleb, #VastSpace will run two missions to #ISS and aims to launch its first #spacestation, #Haven1, by the end of 2025.
    The missions, still without official launch dates, will fall within #NASA’s private #astronaut program, through which the space agency wants to promote the development of a space economy in low Earth orbit.

  8. Space Force Android
    These well built, advanced androids were used as security and boarding troops during operations aboard space stations and vessels, as well as deposited on the ground on moons, asteroid mines, and other planets such as Mars.

  9. Today we finally went to see #TheMoonWalkers immersive show at #Lightroom in London. Words/photos do not do it justice; it was absolutely incredible. We both cried! We also had the unexpected honour of briefly meeting former #Astronaut & #Cosmonaut #JerryLinenger

  10. #LGBTQ+ People in the #Space Industry
     
    …"Although there have been over 600 people in space, there has never been an openly LGBTQ+ #astronaut … it's important for us to examine the industry's historical treatment of LGBTQ+ people, and to think about how we as an industry are going to change going forward"…

  11. You mean the first LESBIAN in space

    It’s the 41st anniversary of the launch of STS-7, when astronaut Sally Ride became the first lesbian in space aboard Space Shuttle Challenger. Love wins :drgn_flag_lesbian:

  12. 📆 Nov. 14, 2022 #Artemis is most definitely not reducing the barriers to doing more in #space or on the #moon. The cost 💰 and time ⌛ spent on #SLS and #Orion have set the #SpaceProgram back.
    Now that we are reducing 〽️ the #cost 💵 of #SpaceAccess, we should be able to have more relevant goals that are of greater interest to #society.
    #Robotic 🤖 missions have always been much more #science-driven and more #efficient, by orders of magnitude, at returning #knowledge 👩‍🎓 for the investment. nytimes.com/2022/11/14/opinion

  13. I was 13 and I wanted to be an astronaut. Unfortunately that never did come to pass. Miss you, Sally. You were magnificent.
