I’m exhausted, y’all. Here, have some #spacenerd goodness from #artemis2
Part of the Integrity capsule is seen in the left and a larger than normal moon is seen on the right side.
Been watching the #artemisII video feed from #nasa today and it's been exciting to see the moon get bigger over the course of today.

A Lego minifig stands beside a pile of computer printouts.
Margaret Hamilton, the woman who wrote the Apollo mission computer’s OS, and mother of the science of software engineering has her own Lego minifig!

Two iPhone 4s flew on the last shuttle flight.
That was the last time a smartphone flew on a NASA mission till now.
Now there are several iPhone 17 Pro Maxs on Artemis II.

Whew. Factchecked myself and were both right! Reid Wiseman fought for the Z9 since it will fly in later missions and good op to test it. Last minute addition to the manifest! petapixel.com/2026/04/02/a... #SpaceNerd
Dang.
Lucky! You're living my dream 😀

Be sure to clear your calendar this Wednesday evening to watch the Artemis II launch! #scienceNerd #spaceNerd
NASA just dropped the clearest images ever of our Solar System's planets. Jupiter's storms. Saturn's rings. Pluto's icy surface. These aren't illustrations. They're real worlds. 🪐🌍✨

After a series of preventable injuries on interstellar trips, astrophysicists have released a manual on safe sex in zero-G environments.
They've titled it, "The Comet Sutra".

Second outing for this photograph taken looking down on an art project my kid and I did many years ago aligning with their class topic at school. Yes I was that irritating mum that loved an 'art project' and fancy dress costume day challenge etc. Polystyrene spheres covered in different coloured tissue paper, sweet wrappers and printed with various textures. Each is accurately (I think) representative in colour of planet. Colours range from deep Ribena-purple, blues, greens, creams, fiery reds and oranges, and even a lilac. Photographed against a black worktop from a former house. Eventually they were strung on fishing wire to became a mobile of the planets.

“The Gigamoon” is absolutely mind-melting. 🌕🔥
A 1.3-gigapixel mosaic made from 280,000 photos- sharp enough to spot the Apollo landing sites.
Andrew McCarthy really said, “What if we photographed the Moon in 4K… times 300?”

I am become astronaut, recliner of worlds.
Found a capsule at the Davidson Center for Space Exploration in Huntsville, Alabama. Naturally, I climbed in.
🧠💭: "Is this what it's like to orbit your own thoughts?"

I don’t think I’ll ever tire of being so close to Kennedy Space Center. I’m such a fucking #SpaceNerd
I think I'm finally going to give No Man's Sky a shot. Looks fun!

A slightly fuzzy picture of the crescent Moon, Jupiter, and Venus in a pre dawn sky
Probably my last stupid early morning at the track for a while, on a breezy warm morning with some clouds in the sky.
But just enough clearing to catch Jupiter and Venus doing their usual show, along with a sliver of waning Moon!
