dhuartson: Don't let anyone talk you out of spending $15 on a new hobby. That $50 will be the best $400 you ever spent.

This is not wrong.

11x14” oil painting of a handheld pinball game with blue-grey background

I hope at least 5 people are excited for Pinball prints on Wednesday! This painting has sort of been neglected during all the Artemis hype, but I love it. Whoever buys the original will get the mini pinball game I used as reference too 👾 #SpaceArt

Artemis II told through 10 mini paintings 💚

OMG, how do I pick my fav? Separation; Rise; Earth Rise (or was that set); Splashdown. How can I pick one?? They are all awesome!

there’s really no dignified way to eat a chocolate rabbit, it’s a bit like an ortolan bunting

Surely @darthbluesky.bsky.social has already been alerted, but just in case...

a two panel meme panel 1 - geordi signalling 'no' with the text data centres and images of data centres Panel 2 - geordi signalling 'yes' with the text "data centaurs" and a crudely edited image of the character data from star trek pasted on top of a centaur

do you ever wake up at 3am and think "shit that's a good idea, I better write that down so I can share it later on"

If one more app that I have been successfully using with no major complaints for at least a decade incorporates AI I will lose my shit

I now realize you were not talking about baseball players. 😊

So tired of shows that make their night episodes so dark that you can't see what is going on. Look, if you don't want me to see your show, just say so, or better yet, don't make it. I am just starting to give up and move on or stop watching.

Oh yeah. IZ's voice was so smooth. Just incredible singer.

OMG, I just saw a fake generated pic of the landing. WHY? The actual pictures from NASA are so amazing, royalty-free, and easily available. There is just no need to make fake images.

We pack a handful of folks into a tin can loaded with explosives. The computers are running Windows and the toilet is malfunctioning. We hurl them at a distant rock. Everything about where they are is deadly. And it is sublimely beautiful, one of the greatest things we’ve done as a species. #Artemis

Astronauts Victor Glover and Christina Koch in their orange astronaut suits as they sit inside the side of a helicopter after it has landed

LOL, trying to stay offline and do my work, and friends are sending me

"LOOK AT THIS NEW PIC!" texts ....

This one is worth it.

First PoC and first woman to go around another world. Don't stop talking about this point. It's important.

#Artemis: Welp. That was the best movie ever!

what do you MEAN my flight will be late, i just watched something from THE MOON land on time

Thank god I don't drink. I'd be hammered by now!

A couple of funny things from the @Artemis return.

1) "We have 4 green seats". Someone (not me): "They are all sick?". Me: "No, I think that was the status"

2) Asking astronauts who have literally just flown the to fucking moon, "Did you remember to push the button"?

Oh humans. You are so human.

Have we all chewed our fingernails off yet? No? Just me?

#Artemis: Right down the centerline of the reentry corridor.

Yeah, to all you space jockeys out there, that is what us noobs out here like to hear!

Huey Lewis is a fascinating case study in making solid gold out of just whatever is lying around. One of his biggest singles is a song where he just lists a bunch of cities where people like rock and roll. The man could literally sing the phone book and it would be a hit.

Ran into one of my old college buddies today

dude was one of the most cracked devs I knew. like reverse engineer a os from binary cracked

found out she transitioned.

I asked her why, and this hit me like a ton of bricks,

"kiran, a computer contains no techbros, but millions of trans sisters"

Some confusion in the Artemis press conf about the issue with the helium pressurization system in the ESM oxidizer system. The issue is with an internal leak of helium here that is bigger than expected and could be a concern for later lunar orbiting missions. Also, ...

The four Artemis astronauts embrace inside the Orion Capsule. American and Canadian flags, along with equipment and hardware are surrounding them.

This is such a great photo.

Probably the best of all the #ArtemisII photos.

Diversity, international collaboration, humanities, science, art, engineering, the desire for exploring, the drive of human curiosity, the reward of years of dedicated hard work, and just pure joy.

It's all in there.

#Artemis astronauts are now past half way back and are pedaling as fast as they can to speed up the capsule so they can get home faster. It's been a good trip, but they have shows to binge!

The Artemis II trajectory in an Earth-centered frame. It makes a figure-8 like shape, with a tight turn around the Moon

The Artemis II trajectory in an Moon-centered frame. It makes a squiggly line, but unlike the other representation, this show a calm turn, a nudge from the moon returning the astronauts back to Earth

We are used to seeing the #Artemis II path in an Earth-centered frame of reference, which makes it appear like they fly to the moon and make a hairpin turn back!

If we look at the a Moon-centered frame, we see that it's not a hairpin turn, but more of a nudge, pulling the astronauts back to earth!

Well, we (@cosmicds.bsky.social), turned my little viz demo into a real thing.

Perspective is important for drawing orbits 💫! Explore how a the shift in reference frame changes how the #Artemis II orbit is drawn! #astronomy #dataviz #moon

Artemis II crew is on its way home. So what did they accomplish The Artemis II has completed its lunar flyby and is now on its way back to Earth. The 10-day mission will end this week on Friday. It was the first crewed lunar flyby in 50 years. Katie Mack, an astro...

I talked to CBC-Kitchener-Waterloo Radio this morning about #Artemis II and they recorded a little video version of the interview afterward (with similar questions). You can watch here: www.cbc.ca/player/play/...
