America’s next leap is underway.. Godspeed Artemis II 🇺🇸

Liftoff. The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon. Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

@_free_f0rever_ @James_Hawke1 The light from the black hole is seen from the accretion disk around the black hole, not the black hole itself. The enormous amount of mass being superheated by extreme friction from orbiting M87* produces large amounts of radio waves. Notice the light AROUND the BLACK hole

Cosmologists will tell you all about black holes in space.

Please stop with the AI what is that

Artemis II is on schedule for launch tomorrow at 6:24 p.m ET. We’re monitoring an extremely complex vehicle, but everything is lining up. The rocket is healthy, the spacecraft is ready, the crew is in position, and the weather is looking good. America is on track to return to the Moon.

The countdown begins. Teams at @NASAKennedy have arrived to their stations at the Launch Control Center. We are about 48 hours from the launch of the Artemis II mission around the Moon. go.nasa.gov/4bHcwzx

@Tanker434 @Cmdr_Hadfield

@Cmdr_Hadfield Artemis is not going to the moon, they are going around it. Stop lying to the unwashed masses...

If schedule holds, these 3 giant rockets will launch in the next 3 weeks. From left to right: New Glenn - satellite launch now, planned for the Moon Starship - test flight 12 now, planned for the Moon Artemis - to the Moon and back with 4 crew aboard Pushing the very edge of our capability as we learn how to more safely & cheaply reach space, to explore all that exists beyond. @nasa @SpaceX @blueorigin

oh hell nah they stole his shading, line thickness and saturation

NG-3 Update: We're targeting launch of the @AST_SpaceMobile BlueBird 7 satellite for no earlier than Friday, April 10.

TIME’s new cover: SpaceX is racing to build its most powerful rockets yet with the goal of returning humans to the moon. Gwynne Shotwell is leading the charge alongside Elon Musk. Read it here: time.com/article/2026/0…

@bill64burner @not_pennington All the show does it make it longer to reiterate a point they've already made several times even earlier in the episode. Some additions are good, like Oliver getting hurt acting as a catalyst and setting Mark off, but the confrontation with Titan sucks

@bill64burner @not_pennington His reasoning in the comic is very logical and not "off the rails", its pretty much the same reasoning he gives in the show. The same post-Angstrom murderous anger is shown in the comic without making Mark look incompetent and weak like he does in the adaptation

The Titan scene in season 4 is a microcosm of the shows larger writing issue. For example, they want you to think that Mark has the same anger issues in the comic And the thing is, people who can’t read or actually understand narrative will be like oh he’s angry it’s the same But no What they did with Titan in episode three is an example of staged severity

NASA is advancing nuclear power and propulsion in space to accomplish President Trump’s national space objectives. With SR-1 Freedom, launching in 2028, we will demonstrate nuclear electric propulsion and deliver SkyFall helicopters to Mars. In collaboration with @Energy, these capabilities are key to future missions to Mars and beyond. A new chapter of deep space exploration begins. 🚀

We've announced a series of transformative initiatives to achieve America's National Space Policy, reflecting upcoming opportunities for world-changing science and discovery. Learn more about our plans for the Moon, Mars, and beyond: go.nasa.gov/3PG9mDv

BREAKING: @NASA to launch first Nuclear-Powered mission to Mars called Space Reactor-1 Freedom - First EVER mission with nuclear-electric propulsion to travel beyond Earth orbit - Launching NET December 2028 - Features a nuclear fission reactor to generate electricity - This electricity will power ion thrusters for propulsion - Repurposes Lunar Gateway's Power & Propulsion Element (PPE) as the bus - Carrying a payload of 3 Ingenuity-class Helicopters to Mars, called Skyfall 📷 @NASA

We'll host a live event Tuesday, March 24, at 9am ET (1300 UTC) to provide an update on implementation of the National Space Policy and preparation for returning to the Moon's surface by 2028. A press conference will follow. How to watch: go.nasa.gov/4bGQv2q
