This is probably going to be my most inspiring photo of 2026. It's a moment that communicates so much though, I'm probably attaching way too much significance to it. In any case, Christina Koch is my Goddamned hero.

One thing that has bugged the heck out of me since the
#Artemis
II mission - is whether the astronauts experienced any time dilation as a result of their transit to the Moon. I ask this, being an absolutely shit house scientist.

Phil Lord & Chris Miller were unceremoniously dumped from Solo: A Star Wars Story a few years back. That they've kicked a banger of a goal w. Project Hail Mary makes me think what
