we don't stage on bump limit due to the rest of /sci/ being so slow compared to sfg (which would mean the being filled with old sfg threads)its either page 10 or image limit

>>16950862I thought i'd taken a pretty cool picture of the moon once. It just blows my mind that this is a picture taken by a human being just yesterday.
I liek this 1
>>16950874Wait...so there are stars in space?
>>16950873There's been a push for the last few years for generals to "go go go", usually led by a single obstonent anon claiming the title of OP when nobody else wants him to, making new threads often and rapidly.I think Hiro is behind it to increase apparent traffic here for ad revenue purposes.
>>16950920its a night shot, the sun is hidden behind the moon
>>16950933Night???
>>16950934as in the sun is not visible. Im translating it into normie terms
>>16950936so youa re bullshitting? shut the fuck up then and stop replying to me.
>>16950957it's called lunar night, yes it's night
I heard our based nigga is making Reddit seethe
>>16950967did he mention that he's a Christian again? He does that a lot
Let's say you are given the opportunity to go to Mars when upon reaching the ripe old age of 50. You are guaranteed to die there, there's no return trip. You'll be able to fuck around for a week on a rover before running out of supplies. Do you take it? What about the moon?I've always wanted to die on Mars, but probably not at 50.
>>16950986I'll take it right now, I'm not looking forwards to another 40 years of muddling around waiting for it to be over.
>>16950967
>>16950988You're 10 years old?
>>169509861 week is retarded but I'd go if there was at least a basic self-sustaining farm even if untested.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqnHn_LS9zs
>>16950995Reading comprehension eludes you anon, maybe one day.
The wake up music choice has been awful. They have shit taste in music, and feels very feminine.

>>16951033I think that graph is going to get old in a few years
>>16951037probably, but for now, the chart is relevant as its almost 60 years of human flight to moon
>>16951008https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dm3Ml9g_cs
>>16951024The corona and colors during the eclipse were insane, I think that plus the Earth pics are gonna influence how people depict space for decades to come.
>>16951066Yeah, it's very different from what I imagined it would look like. I thought it would be a repeat of Apollo, but I'm very happy it turned out the way it did.
>>16951033Interesting. if apollo 13 had failed the crew lost, it would have gone backwards by 1 since Jim Lovell had been to the moon already on Apollo 8. Instead it increased by 2 since the other crewmembers hadnt been.
>>16950967based
>>16951033have to get those numbers up
The greenscreen flickered off for a split second. Ohnonono
i'm worried about the heat shield bros
>>16951097Logically then, we need to have more Apollo 13s
Next SLS core stage will roll out in the coming weeks. Full speed ahead
>>16951142>needs to use AI to push the "space is le fake!" narrativethat about sums up the intelligence of the "people" that believe this
>>16951008my nigga, never thought I'd see Klaus in /sfg/.
press conf starting.
GET YOUR ASS TO MARS - Artemis II crew 2026
>>16950962kino
ship has left port
>CNNcheck>womancheck>asks about toiletcheck
Nice little whore on screen today
>>16951168DID BLUE BUY PIONEER ASTRONAUTICS?
>>16951210those fucks never got back to me after I applied to them
>>16951211Nevermind, Voyager bought them
>>16951179Prove the photo is fake
Damn, up to 6 flashes.
>>16951177SLS is spanking the shit out of Starship
>>16951233Explain how any detail in the photo other than the crew members line up cinematographically with the image from the livestream, because they clearly don't.
>>1695124393bil, 2 launches lmao
>>16951003low moonjoy post
>>16951233>space denier doesn't understand how burden of proof workscan't say i'm surprised
>>16951180Surprised to hear that, i should have been posting in these threads sooner. I'm a fanboy of Schulze, Tangerine Dream/Froese, Eno, and others from that era of early emusic. This historic moment earned it. >>16951063Comfy.
>>16951270I have 500 albums you'd like
this was a good week
I have toilet fatigue
>>16950862this seriously some space engine ahh shican hardly believe a real person took it yesterday
>>16951286I didn't do shit except sit/lay down and watch these niggas go around the moon. Comfy as fuck.
*BEEP*
>>16950986I have a chronic illness that will kill me around then for sure so if I make it that far I'd definitely take it.
>>16951248You would shit your pants if you saw how much SpaceX burned on Starship thus far
>>16951274I've been curating an /sfg/ youtube music playlist. Please, post more!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sy3L3lQaLVoRelated. A one-man psychadelic rock artist I like is releasing a space themed album next month.
>>16951327Lightdreams. it's literally an album about oneil cylinders lol

>>16951028astronauts wear glasses? I thought they and pilots had to have perfect vision to qualify
>>16951177how long was it between this milestone and launch for the artemis 2 sls?
>>16951353Might be bs but I heard zero g fucks with your eyes after a while
>>16951353they've relaxed their requirements
>>16951353some recent ISS astronaut said being on the ISS removed their need for glasses briefly, which is odd.>>16951357I wonder how much of it is never focusing on anything more than 1 meter away 95% of the time.
BLUE IS LAUNCHING THEIR RECOVERED BOOSTER FOR THE NEXT CUSTOMER LAUNCH???? jeez they must be confident.
>>16951177So Artemis 3 is done. Where is SpaceX?
>>16951366Blue stole technology from SpaceX

>>16951368No it's not done
>>16951024the condensation on the solar panel really makes this
>>16951380I doubt that is what you're seeing, unless it really is pee ice.
I hate having to crop images. 8mb 4chan when? I'll literally buy a Pass if it gets me a higher limit.
>>16951382oh wait, it's just the backside with circuits on it, isn't it?>>16951384The full res of this one on flickr is under 4 MiB but 4chan still rejects it as too large for some reason (heavily compressed?). The x-large works though
>>16951388on my MacBook it sometimes downloads as X mb, but then I open it in preview, crop it, and it jumps to X+Y mb (bigger!). So macOS fucks up the initial size estimation (perhaps)
>>16951384that bright bitch is literally asking for itasking for our big human cock to penetrate her
>>16951393she's already cumming over us with sodium

>>16951398I think he was talking about Venus anon
>>16950986>m.jpgKys faggot
>>16950962Yes...this...Though mankind may be small compared to Earth,their hopes are larger than their planet and theirdreams are as expansive as the sky.
>>16950986I don't have any kids so living past 50 sounds extremely boring so I'd definitely take the opportunity to go Mars even if I die "early"
I'm seriously pissed off Christina didn't give credit to the single cell organisms that gave rise to multicellular organisms, billions of years ago. If it weren't for them, she never would have been up there.

NASA had a meeting today to work on the A3 operation plan. Now, assume both Blue and Moonship are ready. Moonship won't be, but let's pretend:NSF: It appears that you think Orion will transfer crew to the HLS and then undock with crew left aboard the HLS, and then dock again to transfer crew back to Orion. And then do it again with the second HLS. That sounds ambitious, but it also sounds like each step is useful and is needed. Do we have any hint from NASA that this is the plan? The second docking of each pair would ideally have the HLS as the active docker and and Orion as the passive target.Consider Orion holds 4 astronauts. Two stay aboard. Which means the two sent over to the landers must be cross trained on both vehicles. Challenging.
>>16951429Imagine what it'll feel like to open up the hatch and look down at all that open space, then just float out into it.
https://x.com/BoeingSpace/status/2041526409588256948>We’ve delivered Viasat’s third satellite in the ViaSat-3 constellation. ViaSat-3 F3 arrived in Cape Canaveral today, where teams are preparing it for a SpaceX Falcon Heavy launch in the coming weeks.
Another BE-7 has completed acceptance testing and is now at Lunar Plant 1 in Florida. The high-performance, dual-expander cycle engine supports our Blue Moon lunar landers for the Artemis program and will help power the next era of lunar exploration.Blue: Giving mankind the stars!
Blue: From Moon dust to fresh air, our Air Pioneer technology turns lunar regolith into breathable oxygen, ready for astronauts returning to the Moon. At our Space Resources Center of Excellence in LA, we developed a reactor (left) that melts regolith simulant and passes a current through it to release oxygen and other gases. The gases flow into the purification system (right) and emerge as medical- and propellant-grade oxygen. A flight-qualified Air Pioneer at this same scale could provide the first breath of life for a sustainable Moon baseMeanwhile over at SpaceX, nothing much.
God bless America. God bless Blue.
why didn't they land there?
