#NASA's #NEOWISE mission ends after a decade of cataloging near-Earth objects. The spacecraft, which detected 1,600 new asteroids and comets, burned up on reentry to #Earth's atmosphere a month ago #space theconversation.com/neowise-th…


Here is a #NASA news article about issues of the #Artemis Moon landing program, which has no reference whatsoever to #SpaceX, a company that was previously freely advertised by NASA. The only indirect reference to SpaceX is "along with the human landing system" (#HLS). That system was awarded by contract to the company.

Interestingly, no reference was made to possible delays to #Artemis3 caused by SpaceX developing/building/testing the HLS . Aren't there any? 🤔

For some reason this depresses me the most. More than reading about Dr. Fucking Oz becoming part of the healthcare system administration in the USA. (source)

USA's healthcare system is a joke in terms of providing healthcare for people. It is a for-profit business, that's all. So making it worse is not something that depresses me that much especially since I live in Europe and I get great free healthcare. But to see NASA being run by those who want to exploit the space....when NASA is by far the leading agency in space, is quite depressing.

The Idiocracy is here, led by no other than the United States of America.

NASA's visualization team created a beautiful preview of every phase of the Moon in 2025, hour by hour.

The best part: Watching how the Moon's appearance changes due to its inclination, oval orbit, and libration (wobble).
