So We Terraform The Planet; But The Planet Areoforms Us.

I call this one "Terraluna."

In memory of the crew of the Challenger on this sad anniversary.  Too many photos depict the moment of explosion and the destruction.  I like to think of her as in this photo, returning a crew safely to earth.  RIP to the crew and those who have sacrificed in the exploration of the final frontier.

Okay I KNOW I'm not the only one who notices this.

See this guy?

This is The Brain, a nasty DC villain who shows up in Teen Titans.  Does anyone else think that the brain looks like the secret love child of: The Grim Reaper:

And a fucking DALEK!?

Reblog if you see it

The complete aesthetic of this blog.

I officially bow down to the artists working at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). Also, thanks to NASA for recognizing and celebrating the power of art like this. 

These STUNNING posters can all be downloaded directly from JPL (in hi-res). And their mere existence is reason enough for a new Wednesday theme: World Tour Wednesday. 

Stay tuned for some more awesome posters that are out of this world* and worth touring

NASA chief: ‘No changes’ to space station launches after dramatic Soyuz rocket failure

Jim Bridenstine told reporters that Russian experts have a “really good idea” of what caused the rocket to malfunction, sending the two-member crew on a hurtling escape back to earth.

“I fully anticipate that we will fly again on a Soyuz rocket, and I have no reason to believe at this point that it will not be on schedule,” NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine told reporters.

That could mean another launch before mid-December, when the three-member crew on the space station — an American, Russian and German — was scheduled to end a six-month mission.

“No changes have been made. The investigation is underway,” Bridenstine added.

I’m just going to reblog this for future use. Followers(the few of you), feel free to check it out.

i am watching Big Bang Theory online with this link if you need it !!

Oh yes.  I'm familiar with this suit. It's called the MIT BioSuit. Unlike other spacesuits of the past which provide the minimum atmospheric pressure needed for well, survival, the MIT BioSuit provides the pressure through mechanical counter pressure. For those of you who don't understand such terms, its really, really skintight.

Although this may resemble science fiction, this is an artist depiction of a possible space suit of the future. Many aerospace accomplishments were forged in the minds and imagination of science fiction.
