A black and white photo of Katherine Johnson, the "Hidden Figure" that sent man into space

A photo of Vanessa Wyche, director of the Johnson Space Center and NASA's highest ranking civil service member

Let it be known that Katherine Johnson was the reason for the first astronauts in space.

And now Vanessa Wyche, head of the Johnson Space Center and NASA's highest ranking civil servant, is the responsible for the longest manned space flight in history

Every single one of the astronauts who went to the moon and back on Artemis II was educated at a public school.

Thinking of the teachers who poured into Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen tonight. You helped send a kid to the moon!

Hooray for the talented Navy divers. ♥️

Rest in peace, Perel.

I love Lou’s thin. And enjoy the deep dish with family. But the killer is the salami crack on the Malnati’s salad. Nothing like it!

“War itself is, of course, a form of madness. It’s hardly a civilized pursuit. It’s amazing how we spend so much time inventing devices to kill each other and so little time working on how to achieve peace.”

Rest in peace, Jacqueline.

I love How Comics Were Made. And the funding lead-up to its launch.

Adding Flong to my list now.

@cblouke.bsky.social if you didn’t expand the original post yet, it’s part of long, valuable thread. Worth a read.

Question of the season.

This is the face of a lunar scientist who has just been told that the #Artemis II crew saw SEVERAL impact flashes (the flashes when meteors hit the lunar surface) in real time 😃 🌓💥

Rest in peace, Jaantje.

Unfortunately this is cool as hell

Calm tech: what the mind needs to focus Calm Tech: Texture, environment, and what the mind needs. A talk by Amber Case at reMarkable.

A few people asked about more talks and info after my talk at #ATmosphereConf Here is one I gave about neuroaesthetics and what the minds needs at reMarkable headquarters in Oslo, Norway! remarkable.com/using-remark...

Having been there as a K-12 CIO at the very beginning of Web2.0, social learning…and then 1:1…and still here for AI…. We’re doing as little intelligent design now as 20 yrs ago.

Our transportation+urban design muck-ups are a century older, so I keep pulling threads there, hoping for some wisdom.

It’s not a direct line, but a few things converged for me the past five yrs:

-reading The Power Broker (R. Caro’s book on R. Moses urban design impacts)
-visiting Europe a bit more and missing good transit each time I’m back home
-following @tomflood.bsky.social and @brenttoderian.bsky.social

Amber is the best of thinkers! And, one of my beacons for almost 20 years now in the evolving technology+human domain.

Sorry to miss this event. Following now and hope to catch it next year.

Text from the Univ of Iowa exhibit description page: Automobiles were embraced by the public well before there were adequate roads on which to drive them. In fact, in the 1920s there were only a few hundred miles of hard-surface roads to accommodate millions of vehicles. The Lincoln Highway, a series of roads spanning the continent, was designated in 1913. It evolved into the interstate system - a massive public works project that slashed through cities and contributed to urban sprawl. In the first decades of the twentieth century, the automobile was often considered a menace as careless drivers collided with horses and with each other, ran over animals, littered the roadsides with garbage and invaded private property. As the century draws to a close, some would say that little has changed to alter that view. The interstate highways and secondary roads are more crowded than ever: the roadsides are lined with strip malls. But we have not lost the desire to come and go as we please. The obsession with "automobility" continues.

In a phrase: technology adoption curve at organizational/societal scale. Broadly.

I’ve been using automobile adoption as a similar thinking frame lately, esp w/ the growing reconsideration of the things we got wrong in century before, e.g. ecosystem design.
