Not bad for a few BILLION less than NASA probably spends on diversity training.

According to the news this will make eleven astronauts on the ISS with only nine beds, so two will have to use sleeping bags attached to the walls until four return to Earth next week.

On the other hand, one of the ones who went up today is the wife of one of those already up there, so maybe they can double up.

Pretty astronaut! https://www.nasa.gov/astronauts/biographies/k-megan-mcarthur

No tictac, no care.

Cool @ss $h it, i have been following it. Get up there and get amongst it.

They resemble Imperial crew members, don't they?



Watching the YouTube live stream showing yesterday. At more than 4 hours before launch the astronauts are put in those suits that look very uncomfortable and tight from the way they walked and then at 2 1/2 hours they are put in the spaceship and buckle in and at 1 hour the door is closed until launch. What if they need to go to restroom after they are put in the suits at 4 hours mark?

It hardly even made the news what with all the "important" other stories about covid and "social" stuff

What an exciting time to live. People in Orbit and Pics from Space and Planets a helicopter flying on Mars. All this plus Covid 19, Social unrest, Invasion of the SW border by Kids and the WOFF update B+ H and E ' LL.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who see's the similarity between now and 1969. When man landed on the moon it was juxtaposed with a grueling foreign war, civil unrest and massive cultural/political upheaval at home. I think many people are still moved by these type of accomplishments, it just seems to be a lot less significant to the people who decide what we should be concerned with.

In 1968 / 69 there was a pandemic too, which everyone seems to have forgotten about. Not trivial either:
