Loving the new X function that already translates the tweet, and you dont have to hit the "translate" post button anymore.

Btw If I text you this, it means I'm home safe

No Physics without Biology and Chemistry. The trio works hand in hand😅🤞

@SavvyRinu We never fit ask for good governance, na to become astronaut I want...?! When we are done getting things right, we can start thinking of finding a way to space. And that will be 8 billiin years from now

@I_8_it_here ANYTHING they do is a flex rn😅😅

Na the actual IJGB be dis.

A lot been going on in space I didn't even know.

I totally understand you but Nigeria has a Space Program... and most people don’t even know how deep it goes. From launching satellites to planning human spaceflight this thread will surprise you. Nigeria runs its space missions through National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA). Established in 1999 and the goal was to put Nigeria on the global space map. Nigeria built her first satellite NigeriaSat-1 (2003). Although built in the UK and launched from Russia. But here’s the interesting part…NigeriaSat-1 wasn’t just for Nigeria. It joined the Disaster Monitoring Constellation and helping monitor floods, wildfires, and disasters worldwide. Nigeria is also a contributor to global space efforts. Even despite challenges, Nigeria didn’t stop there. More satellites followed: NigeriaSat-2 (high-resolution imaging) NigeriaSat-X (partly built by Nigerians ) NigComSat-1R (communications & internet) Not everything went smoothly by the way NigComSat-1 (2007) failed in orbit after about a year. But instead of stopping we came back stronger. In 2011, Nigeria launched NigComSat-1R, a replacement, better, improved system. That’s resilience most people don’t talk about. Here’s something you may find wild though Nigeria once planned to send an astronaut to space. Yes… a Nigerian in space. (It didn’t happen but the ambition was REAL.) So Nigeria is quietly using space tech daily: Communication (TV, internet), Agriculture monitoring, Mapping & GPS, Urban planning, Security You’re probably benefiting without realizing it. Nigeria has satellites in space but doesn’t launch rockets (yet). Launches are done via Russia, China, etc. Nigeria’s space story is just getting started. And one day… We might see 🇳🇬 launching rockets from its own soil. Maybe in our lifetime or not.

@iamnasboi Farm the engagement, we understand

Am i the only one who doesn’t believe in the moon story?

All the sciences are super important, but you see Maths and Physics? Everybody’s daddy.

I can't wait for NASA's internships and other opportunities to be open to Africans. I also want to contribute to things like this at least before I die.

@estherannuduma Even Pilot is a reach these days...sigh

You can’t even dream of becoming an astronaut in Nigeria.

@Olub_Peace We have to remind ourselves that😅

NASA Engineers and Scientists weren’t not creating GRWM contents when going to class.

Don't mess with them[US]

Difference Between SpaceX and NASA NASA and SpaceX are both going to the Moon. But they are building completely different machines to get there. Here is the difference, explained simply. NASA builds like a government. Slow. Expensive. Extremely safe. Every single part is tested, certified, reviewed, and reviewed again. Their rocket, the SLS, costs $4 billion per launch. It cannot be reused. Once it fires, it is gone forever. Their capsule, Orion, seats four astronauts and was designed with decades of engineering tradition behind it. It is the most powerful rocket America has ever built. It is also the most expensive way to get to space that currently exists. NASA’s approach is: we cannot afford to fail, so we will take all the time we need. SpaceX builds like a startup. Fast. Cheap. Fail, learn, rebuild, try again. Their rocket, Starship, is the biggest rocket ever built by any human civilisation. It is designed to land back on its launch pad, be refuelled, and fly again within hours. One Starship launch costs a fraction of what NASA spends on SLS and the plan is to launch it dozens of times just to refuel itself in orbit before heading to the Moon. SpaceX’s approach is: move fast, break things, fix them in public, and make it cheaper every time. How They Work Together NASA is not competing with SpaceX. They hired SpaceX. The plan for landing on the Moon works like this. NASA’s SLS rocket launches astronauts in the Orion capsule toward the Moon. Meanwhile SpaceX launches Starship separately, fuels it up using 14 tanker flights in orbit, and parks it near the Moon waiting. The astronauts transfer from Orion into Starship. Starship takes them down to the lunar surface. They spend about a week on the Moon. Then Starship brings them back up to Orion, and they fly home. They are two completely different vehicles with two completely different companies but they all have one mission. In conclusion, NASA style: one perfect rocket, one shot, do not fail. SpaceX style: launch many times, fuel in orbit, land the rocket back, fly it again tomorrow. NASA is the architect. SpaceX is the contractor who figured out a cheaper way to lay the bricks. Neither can finish this mission without the other. That is what modern space exploration actually looks like.

@pathphamwarrior I'd rather wonder which one will ever solve their people's crisis such that they matter on the global stage tbh.

I low-key wonder which African country would be the first to send humans to the moon and back

@CallMeFreebies Omo I no dey see your tweets again o

Lmaooo na stan turned staff dey handle am not a regular fan

@WarMonitor3 @grok what is the Chagos island deal about?

Starmer has finally dropped the Chagos Island Deal. Great news...

Jos Massacre: Unmasking Foreign Influence in Nigeria On Palm Sunday, 29 March 2026, terrorists attacked the Gari Ya Waye community of Angwan Rukuba in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State, Nigeria, killing at least 30 civilians that the Tinubu-led regime failed to protect. Following the attack, many Nigerians, who have long been victims of US-backed terrorism, have, out of frustration and neglect by Abuja, begun cosying up to foreign actors like “Alex Barbir”, who poses as a US missionary alongside his compliant local partner Ezekiel Dachomo. For the Spearhead, Mayowa Durosinmi (@mayordeah_) explained the lost context of how foreign agents like Alex Barbir are embedded deep within networks like Equipping The Persecuted, and are all working, in the name of protecting “persecuted Christians”, to achieve the ultimate goal of furthering US imperialism in Nigeria.

This is the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) scholarship for undergraduates. In 2023, they paid ₦1.2 million yearly plus school fees until graduation, but now they pay ₦1.8 million yearly plus school fees until graduation. Applications are released every three years. The last application was in 2024, and the next is in 2027, except if there are changes. If you are still an undergraduate by then, watch out for it. There are other undergraduate scholarships available. I’ll share them on my timeline once they open.
