Rather troubling that the president is so unwell as to be promoting AI-induced visions of himself as Jesus while beefing with the pope, but it’s made even more bizarre because it’s happening while the VP is Catholic and saying nothing

The #Artemis II crew capsule Integrity’s side hatch is open and recovery crew are going in to assess the astronauts and (hopefully soon) pull them out

Those four #Artemis astronauts went from weightlessness to a 3+G re-entry to splashdown and now they’ve been at 1G bobbing in the ocean for half an hour while they wait to get pulled out of their little tin can. I do not envy how their stomachs must be…

Splashdown! Vehicle is stable and upright. “A perfect bulls-eye splash for Integrity and its four astronauts!” #Artemis

Right now the #Artemis II capsule is engulfed in hot plasma as it plunges through the atmosphere and will be out of communication for another 3 minutes. Holding my breath.

I try really hard to always be courteous to my fellow internet denizens but apparently a quick way to get on my bad side is to be misleading and/or inaccessible with space/science things. Science should be for everyone and misinformation about it…

Long-wavelength radio astronomy is some of the only science that would get a major benefit from being on the lunar far side. The Moon blocks radio noise from the Earth & presents the possibility of ground-based astronomy with no atmospheric interference.…
