Let's learn about some medical research that just left Earth on Artemis II, bound for the silver sphere in the sky. It's AVATAR, but it doesn't involve blue aliens. It stands for "A Virtual Astronaut Tissue Analog Response" & it looks like this USB drive-sized device.

We’re at teen art club again 😎

Watching this Artemis II live steam from NASA and feel like this, with this song. youtu.be/SO5XAQD88mQ?...

It is a weird thing for a bunch of monkeys with oversized brains to do though. You wouldn't have put money on us eventually whizzing around in space a million or so years ago.

A little love for the Moon today

The Artemis II astronauts are on their way to seeing the far side of the Moon! Just 24 people in the history of the human race have seen it with their own eyes.👀 This is what the Moon's far side looks like! It is dominated by Lunar highlands; there are fewer dark areas (maria) due to thicker crust.

All this about perigee and apogee makes me think someone’s about to be turned into a white rabbit. 😆😜

Godspeed, Artemis II!

Captain Angel, "Spock what are you waiting for, take the shot." Spock, "I do not wish to harm him, but to merely subdue him. Setting phaser to Stun." Weird Al, "Thank you, you're a very Enterprising crowd! This next one is called 'Spock You Like A Hurricane!'" Spock, "... switching to Vaporize."

Are we there yet "It's the Moon, stop saying 'Are we there yet'" Oh sorry Are we there YET

First little April rain storm of the year means it’s time for this beautiful song :) youtu.be/saa98l0yDYQ?...

Boosting for any #NYC fans :)

Artemis is ready for launch. Will you be watching?

me and my normal sized coffee

I’m sure @scalzi.com would agree! :)

484) Hopebot. Finds you in the darkness and tells you that at the end of every tunnel is a light, no matter how bleak the future looks it is still unwritten, you are alive and a human being with mind, the universe's last defence against entropy. Rise. Continue. Be. #SmallRobotsRemastered

In honor of (hopefully) today's launch of NASA's Artemis II mission, the first crewed mission to orbit the Moon in more than 50 years, here is a to-scale graphic of exactly how far away the Moon actually is. (Click image to expand.) You could fit about 30 Earths between the Earth and the Moon!

Whan that Aprille with his shoures soote, The droghte of March hath perced to the roote, And bathed every veyne in swich licóur Of which vertú engendred is the flour; … So priketh hem Natúre in hir corages, Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages Happy April from me and Chaucer.

Office/business cats :D They all have very important jobs. Daz said I missed out the most important job of getting the coffees 😂

Remember that when you look into the abyss the abyss looks back into you

Always weird when planets get destroyed and *coughs* no one knows how

Happy Trans Day of Visibility. I know trans people and I know fascists who are making life difficult for trans people. The trans people are pretty cool and I'm glad I know them. The fascists can go fall down a deep dark hole.

We literally threatened to invade a NATO ally THIS YEAR. TWO MONTHS AGO.
