Crescent Moon and Jupiter with its Galilean moons.

Don’t need a passport for domestic travel 😮‍💨

oh, you’re a fan of spaceflight? name every crewed mission.

Space Colony by Jinsei Choh (1982)

I asked Jared Isaacman, the new head of NASA, if he wanted to put his own boots on the moon. This was his response:

While you slept last night, completely motionless in your bed, our galaxy shifted millions of kilometers through the cosmos. You woke up in the same room, on the same planet, but unimaginably far from where you were the night before. The Milky Way does not glide silently through the universe. It is racing through space at about 600 kilometers per second, carrying with it billions of stars, planets, and everything they contain on the journey. It is a good reminder that, even when life seems motionless, you are always in motion.

′′ Ella es azul ′′ Lo dijo Yuri Gagarin el 12 de abril de 1961 cuando vio nuestro planeta mientras realizaba el primer vuelo en el espacio tripulando la Vostok 1 hacía la primer órbita alrededor de la Tierra. Por eso celebramos hoy el día del cosmonauta! 🧑‍🚀 La exploración espacial no es sólo experimentación. La tecnología espacial también se utiliza para las comunicaciones, la navegación, la televisión por satélite, así como para otros retos e investigaciones científicas. 🌎✨🚀 Imagen: portada revista ©️ Time 1961

We are the first humans to witness a sunset on Mars. For 4.5 billion years, the Sun slipped beneath the rusty horizon of the Red Planet in perfect silence. No eyes had ever seen it. No heart had ever felt the quiet awe of another world’s day turning to night.Tonight, that changed forever.For the first time in the history of the universe, human eyes — ours — watched the Sun go down on another planet. A small, blue-tinged Sun sinking through a thin, alien sky, painting the ancient craters and dunes in hues no Earth sunset has ever known.Let that sink in.We didn’t just send machines this time. We sent our curiosity, our wonder, and our gaze across 140 million miles of empty space… and caught a glimpse of something that had been happening alone since before life on Earth even began.This is more than a photo. It’s a milestone in the human story.We are becoming a multi-planetary species — one sunset at a time. This version keeps the poetic wonder of your original while adding depth, rhythm, and a stronger sense of historical significance. It feels more cinematic and shareable without losing the emotional punch.

#artemis #artemisGeneration Wow.

@go4gordon Crazy how the logo and flag survived that much heat.

This crew brings me so much joy

🚨: There have been thousands of generations of humans, and you are alive to witness the first photo of a Sunset on another World.😮 This is a real photo of the sunset on Mars.

📍Esta es una foto que muchos prefieren no mencionar: Valentina Tereshkova (la primera mujer en el espacio y heroína del programa soviético) condecorando a Neil Armstrong en Moscú. Sí: la URSS reconoció públicamente el alunizaje. No hubo “dudas”, ni “montajes”, ni teorías conspirativas dentro del propio Estado que compitió contra Estados Unidos en la carrera espacial. Al contrario: celebraron el logro, lo validaron y lo integraron en su narrativa científica. La foto es de 1970, cuando Armstrong visitó la Unión Soviética en una gira diplomática y científica. Lo recibieron con honores, lo llevaron a centros de investigación y lo trataron como el primer ser humano que pisó otro mundo. Cada vez que alguien intenta revivir el mito del “alunizaje falso”, basta recordar esta imagen: si ni la URSS lo negó, ¿por qué todavía hay quien sigue negándolo?

CHRISTINA KOCH GREETING HER DOG AFTER RETURNING FROM THE MOON IM GONNA CRYYY 😭😭😭

When that one your niche micro interest with a small internet community becomes the mainstream world event for two weeks (spaceflight)

Big fan of Robert McCall art. I think these are oil paintings maybe ? I really like the style.

Thank you for following Artemis II. We’re just getting started. Welcome to the Artemis generation.
