Africa: Black Holes Spew Out Powerful Jets That Span Millions of Light-Years - We're Trying to Understand Their Whole Life Cycle: [The Conversation Africa] There is a supermassive black hole at the centre of nearly every big galaxy - including ours, the Milky Way (it's called Sagittarius A*). Supermassive black holes are the densest objects in the universe, with masses reaching billions of times that of the… newsfeed.facilit8.network/TJVF #BlackHoles #Astrophysics #SpaceExploration #Cosmology #MilkyWay

As many others have noted 'A City on Mars' is an excellent book that everyone should read.

But if you haven't got the time, then spend 18 mins with the authors in this excellent interview explaining why 'Humans on Mars' is extremely challenging and likely not happening anytime soon.

I would go as far as suggesting 'A City on Mars' be used in the curriculum as it *really* applies a lot of critical thinking and analysis to many concepts that Musk bros perpetuate.

It could - in a way - be a tool to stop the next generation of Musk-bro-thinking styles.

March 16 couldn’t arrive soon enough for NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams. That’s the date set for the two “stuck” Boeing Starliner crewmembers who have been living at the International Space Station ever since their 10-day mission turned into a nine-month saga. @Spacecom has more:

Thousands of rockets have launched into space over the last several decades. But what would it take to build an elevator that goes from Earth to space? Thousands of meters of cable, for starters. @sciencefocus has more on this impossible-sounding idea that more people have been giving serious thought over the years.

@Lazarou Go fast and break things once seemed innovative and brilliant to me. It turned out to be a giant money black hole and an endless stream of worker injuries. Who would have thought that others do space stuff in certain ways for a reason?
