A new video by Rational Thinker on how radioactivity was discovered. His other videos are also very well done and I highly recommend you check out his channel. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQTv...

Sorry, don't know the author of this shitpost, but it's pertinent nonetheless even to this day.

The 3-day Special Military Operation in Ukraine is going according to plan. Pay no attention to the graves in the foreground or the pillar of smoke in the background. It's all fake news.

Must be good to have allies, huh? youtu.be/t5Jc9yTtirU?...

Greece is a terrific guy. This has been a public news announcement, thank you for your attention on this matter.

Interesting video by SpaceX in which they do not shy away from talking about some of their setbacks when it comes to bringing up Starship V3. I'm sure more failures are in store in the future because it's a major redesign, structural changes, Raptor 3 engines, etc... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANe_...

Shoutout to all Croatian firefighters, both land and air crews. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ug1i...

Well, isn’t this a sight for sore eyes! 😍 Our beloved Hubble appears in this amazing image from one of Vantor's WorldView Legion satellites. It was 36 years ago today that Hubble was launched in the bay of the Space Shuttle Discovery from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. Credit: Vantor.

So the Falcon 9 rocket has now tallied up 600 *landings* of its 1st stage booster. Never mind the fact that it actually launched as many times over a period of just more than 10 years since they managed to land the first one, a feat incredible enough. (1/2)

THIS is what I was wishing and waiting for - human-held VIDEO of that moment.

Picture of the week - Odesa…😢

Blue Origin's current version of the New Glenn rocket might well take the crown of the space launch vehicle with the lowest thrust-to-weight ratio at liftoff, ever. And to think I thought Atlas 501 variants were slow to get off the pad...

All remaining power to the defense systems!

Let me get this straight (see what I did there?). Trump wanted NATO countries, who he previously accused of being cowards, to intervene and open the Hormuz strait, without even informing them of the impending attack on Iran. And now he's enforcing a naval blockade of that same strait?

Congrats, Hungary! 🇭🇺

"Freedom 250"? Who tf are you kidding? With that orange buffoon in the Oval Office, the "great" U.S. of A. has never been less free in my entire lifetime. But keep on believing this unsubstantiated bullshit, your school system has been set up for that for a long time now already. flic.kr/p/2s6T9x9

Just when I think the Artemis II crew captured the best images they downlink stuff like this.... flic.kr/p/2s6Hfnk

Good luck tomorrow, my Hungarian neighbors.

The conclusion of pretty much the only happy, uplifting story this year...

I've looked at pretty much all solar system objects, different probes, what have you, the whole shebang. I maintain that (in my opinion) Earth is the most beautiful planet in our solar system.

Angus: This is a president who says the only constraint on his actions is not Congress, not the courts, not international law, but, quote, “my own morality, my own mind.” There is no morality in a man accused of being a rapist…

If I was presented with Artemis II closeups of the Moon and asked to guess if it's Rhea, Mercury or the Moon, I think I'd eliminate Rhea because of its low gravity causing topography to be much more pronounced. Gets tricky after that, I'd give myself an 85% chance of identifying it as Moon imagery.

I'm a sucker for crescents in the dark and also a bit of lens flare (not J.J. Abrams-levels, though, thankyouverymuch) so this, by default, is an immediate favorite. flic.kr/p/2s6wfG1

Pure rocket pr0n ❤️‍🔥

The truest thing I’ve read today….🤣

This is possibly the most incredible tracking video of a rocket launch that I have ever seen, and Shuttle had some really incredible videos too! Just look at those gorgeous flame dynamics and then the booster separation... 🔭🧪 #Artemis

Can't make up my mind on which of these two "Earthset" shots I like more. One is almost perfectly timed so that the southern "horn" of Earth's crescent contacts the Moon, the other really drives home that Earth is, indeed, way back in distance. Sources: flic.kr/p/2s6etDN flic.kr/p/2s6et1Z

Sorry for this, I just couldn't help myself.

You know what I'd have loved to see from this Artemis 2 Earthset sequence? Handheld video, like in the good old Apollo days. Video from cameras fixed on solar arrays is fine, but nothing says "this was a human being filming it" like the jitter when they're trying to track something while floating.

Oh, wow. So many other worlds visible in the background of the Artemis II view from eclipse, peeking out of the haze of the solar corona. Thanks @tunctezel.bsky.social for labeling!

Um OKAY. Breathtaking photos from the Artemis II crew's lunar flyby and eclipse viewing

Waiting for our home planet to photobomb that solar panel camera external view any minute now.

Less than 40 minutes now until the Artemis 2 crew breaks Apollo 13's record of distance from the Earth achieved by a human crew. Moon flyby observation campaign is about to begin. Watch live at www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3kR...

Ukrainian Mi-8 crew shoots down Russian shaheed kamikaze drone

Incredible footage from a United Airlines flight of the Artemis II launch.

Spaceflight Now livestream had better tracking camera views of Artemis 2 liftoff than NASA's official coverage. Perhaps some food for thought? www.youtube.com/live/ut72917...

I love this guy's videos. Check him out if you're not already familiar with his work @asianometry.bsky.social youtu.be/M55XzxjmON0?...

This is an excellent summary of the US War on Iran current situation. I’m an existentialist and borderline absurdist and even I struggle with the current moment. This summary is just fantastic.

Trump last night: „We are helping NATO with Ukraine, so NATO should help the US to keep the Strait of Hormuz open.“

🚨🔥Full video showing a Russian Ka-52 being shot down and its crew killed after ejection by a drone operator from Ukraine’s 59th Brigade. Pokrovsk front.

I'm no fan of the Iranian regime, but whoever was responsible for this targeting solution (and make no mistake, this wasn't a missile gone awry by a few meters, this was a dead-on hit, so it was *intended*) should get their head on the chopping block. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/w...

The "very stable genius" is asking for Ukrainian help with dealing with Iranian drones overwhelming air defenses in the Persian gulf countries, after cutting off all military support to Ukraine in the past 8 months from U.S. Monty Python material.
