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).

While at NASA/JPL the other day, I visited an old friend: the hand assembled and colored map from the first Mariner 4 tv image. A geologist got impatient waiting for the image processing folks to assemble the image, so they printed out the raw values onto tiny strips, stapled them to a wall, and hand-colored it with pastels. To save the map, it was sawed out of the wall and framed as a gift to the Lab director. Recently remounted and preserved. #NASA #JPL #Map #Mariner4 #Pastels #Geologist


The view from NASA's Artemis mission yesterday is just...words fail me.

Do people like threads here? I guess we'll find out!

Between meetings today I thought I'd talk about # # and all the exciting # we can expect from it starting in a few months!

(Yes, I made this travel mug ❤️)
