I haven't been very active here lately as everything is becoming more shitty... If you're still interested in the stuff that I was posting, find me in the fediverse: chaos.social/@ripper I have no plans for going to bluesky or threads, so no need to ask for that. :)

It's gone to 11 folks! The number of toilets in space has GONE TO 11! 4 on the ISS, 2 on the Tiangong space station, 1 on Shenzhou 14, 1 on Soyuz MS-22, 1 on Soyuz MS-23, 1 on Crew Dragon Freedom, & 1 on Crew Dragon Endeavour. This is a new space record.
There are 10 toilets in space right now. Soon to be 11. 👀 (Yes, that would be a new record.)

Asteroid Sar2667, about a meter in diameter, was expected to fall near the French city of Le Havre at 02:59h UTC. I drove to a photogenic spot close to home in the south of the Netherlands to capture it, just as the sky cleared. #asteroid #meteor @IMOmeteors @apod

In the picture there's also a banana for scale!
☀️🔭👁️ Can you observe sunspots without a telescope? Yes, in fact NOAA AR 13190 is so large it's visible with a pair of eclipse glasses (& a☁️free day😛). The daily @UniGraz ⚪️light☀️image on the ESA #SpaceWeather Portal is shown below with🌍to scale! 🌐swe.ssa.esa.int/kso-S107e-fe…

Splashdown. After traveling 1.4 million miles through space, orbiting the Moon, and collecting data that will prepare us to send astronauts on future #Artemis missions, the @NASA_Orion spacecraft is home.

😮 Flashback to flight day 13 of #Artemis I, check out this time-lapse of the Moon transiting across Earth, captured by @NASA_Orion! 👍
50 years ago, the Apollo 17 astronauts captured an iconic Earth view of the “Blue Marble” as they set sights on the Moon. Today with #Artemis, this time-lapse footage showcases the Earth-Moon transit as @NASA_Orion captured our home planet and the Moon on flight day 13.

😮 They're in! The hi-res pics from the point of @NASA_Orion's maximum distance from Earth during the #Artemis I mission, taken yesterday by a camera on one of #OrionESM European Service Module's solar arrays 👉 flic.kr/ps/sv14h #ForwardToTheMoon
Flight day 13: Orion reached its maximum distance from Earth during the #Artemis I mission when it was 268,563 miles away from our home planet. Orion has now traveled farther than any other spacecraft built for humans.

Not every day you get to see how the Moon eclipses Earth from a unique vantage point in space, live. 📸 Space selfie from one of the European Service Module's solar wings, more than 430 000 km from our planet, right now. It will last approximately 90 minutes.

At the @MetalabVie hackathon last weekend I finished the racks for my @SortimoGmbH T-Boxx G screw boxes. Of course they are massively over engineered with the use of the CNC machine and original rails. Thanks to inspiration from @donttrythis I put them on wheels for easier use.
