Terrain3D is an incredible add-on for Godot 4. Thank you @TokisanGames !
This is part of R&D for Liblast and Liblast Framework.
Based on CGI data from #NASA, that was interpreted frivolously to an 8x8 km area and then sclupted over to add detail that was missing from the original textures.

I’m just putting this out there…
If I had a Top Secret SCI clearance, and had conversations with my county’s sworn adversary (Putin), I would have had my clearance revoked, been arrested, held in confinement (flight risk) until my trial.
Why is #Musk not in jail? Money 💰 ???

NASA still hasn't decided on how Boeing Starliner astronauts will return.
But recent developments, and NASA's mention of an "unsuited return" have led to a lot of questions about why the launch and entry suits aren't compatible between Boeing and SpaceX. Let's dive into what that unsuited return means, how launch and entry suits are used, and why NASA didn't mandate compatibility here.

Why didn't NASA make Boeing and SpaceX's spacesuits compatible?
NASA still hasn't decided whether Boeing Starliner astronauts will return on their original spacecraft or a SpaceX Crew Dragon. But recent developments, and ...YouTube

Ex-Astronaut verunglückt: "Earthrise"-Fotograf Anders gestorben
"Earthrise", also Erdaufgang, heißt eines der berühmtesten Fotos der Erde. Geschossen wurde es von Astronaut William Anders an Heiligabend 1968. Nun ist der Apollo-8-Teilnehmer bei einem Unfall gestorben.
Congrats to #NASA for the successful landing of #Odysseus! 🌑🚀

She was the first woman on Mars. As she was landing, she ignored the original plan and headed straight for the Jezero crater, Mission Control would need to live with it. Once she stepped out she didn't hesitate. It took her a while but she finally reached the device. She opened her toolbox and got to work. After 20 minutes, she had replaced the rotor. She cleaned the dust with a cloth and said "fly baby, fly". It was 2054 and Ingenuity could fly once again.

Je to neuvěřitelných 40 let, co vznikla legendární fotografie, na které se Bruce McCandless vznáší mimo raketoplán bez jištění a používá k tomu osobní manévrovací zařízení Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU).
Tento způsob volného pohybu byl použit jen na třech misích raketoplánu. Po havárii raketoplánu Challenger v roce 1986 byl projekt MMU vyhodnocen jako nebezpečný a byl zastaven. #nasa

On Sol 1037 (three days ago) the Perseverance rover observerved this transit of Mars' smallest moon Deimos.
This timelapse was made from 177 Left Mastcam-Z images and shows the event at 10x speed.

Was the SpaceX Starship’s launch a failure or a success?
Ars Technica says "For those who know a bit more about the launch industry and the iterative design methodology, getting the Super Heavy rocket and Starship upper stage off the launch pad was a huge success." The company's development process is messier, but it's also much faster, says author Eric Berger.

#fosdem Update Tag 2:
Schade! Schon ist der zweite Tag vorbei.. Damit wir auch nur irgendwie mit dem straffen Zeitplan zurechtkommen konnten, saßen wir zwischenzeitlich einfach in Hörsaal A und haben uns per #Livestream in Hörsaal B eingeklinkt (wie die anderen knapp 20.000 Unique Viewers).

Do people like threads here? I guess we'll find out!
Between meetings today I thought I'd talk about #NASA #JWST and all the exciting #science we can expect from it starting in a few months!
