How often does it happen that a hugely popular guitarist moves on and starts a completely different career. Also the caption: astrophysicist “and guitarist” in that order. I learned he also collects antique stereoscopes #space #spaceexploration #guitar
Well that's a great point.
He does seem to have quite a #saviorcomplex and his having so completely inserted himself into government positions him to make sure it's his company that gets to Mars first.
I'm not averse to #spaceexploration and am well aware of the technological breakthroughs that it has brought. But we have a many existing issues on earth that are going to get worse very quickly with these funding cuts.
We need balance here.

After more than nine months on the International Space Station, two astronauts are a step closer to returning home following Friday’s launch of a crew swap mission. Phys.org has more:
Hat noch wer heute Abend im Raum #Oldenburg oder sogar in #Norddeutschland dieses Phänomen am #Himmel gesehen? Sah aus wie ein #Komet, bewegte sich west-/nordwestlicher Richtung aber langsam gen Horizont. Ist da irgendwas verglüht, wenn ja, was? Konnte bisher keine Infos dazu finden.
Gerne boosten.

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*).

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:
In 2022, NASA's DART mission proved we have the capability to deflect an asteroid.
It successfully altered the orbit of Dimorphos by 33 minutes! This is a remarkable step for humanity! #Innovation #SpaceExploration

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?
