Jour 099, orbite 1532 – Dans ce timelapse, on me voit en train d’installer le matériel pour Astro Pi Mission Space Lab de @ESA__Education au niveau d’un hublot appelé WORF (World Observation Research Facility); il s’agit de l’un des endroits préférés des astronautes pour prendre des photos de la Terre 🌍. Mission Space Lab met au défi des élèves : il s’agit de calculer, avec la plus grande précision possible, la vitesse à laquelle la Station spatiale internationale se déplace. Cela nécessite d’analyser les données des capteurs ou de la caméra des Astro Pi que nous avons à bord pour déterminer l’orientation et le mouvement de la Station alors qu’elle orbite autour de la Terre. 👏 Félicitations à toutes les équipes qui ont travaillé sur ce défi — et tout particulièrement à celles dont les programmes ont été déployés à bord de la Station ! Il n’y a jamais d’obligation d’installer un timelapse lors d’une activité – le temps est compté, impossible de vérifier qu’il est parfaitement net après quelques images, du coup celui-ci est un peu flou 😅… Désolée… 🎥 @ESA / @NASA #εpsilon • @esaspaceflight • @esa_fr • @Space_Station • @NASA_Johnson • @CNES

Really excited to kick off the BBC’s space podcast ‘13 Minutes Presents: Artemis ll’ with myself, Maggie Aderin and @KristinFisher . This is a daily podcast bringing you all the news on the Artemis ll mission as it happens. First episode is out today on @bbcsounds. bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/w13xt… #artemis #launch #moon #astronauts #podcast

The countdown is on! 🚀 Artemis II lifts off tomorrow at 11:24pm BST, sending four astronauts around the Moon. 🌔 The UK is playing a role in NASA's historic return to the Moon, with @goonhillyorg providing critical lunar comms tracking. 📡🌒 Find out how to watch. 👇

.@shaunthesheep has arrived at @NASAKennedy and is at the press site, ready to cheer on his fellow astronauts for #Artemis II 🚀🐑 From Mossy Bottom in Europe to the United States - he wouldn’t miss this for the world!

Artemis is the story of a partnership of nations. Europe plays a mission-critical role. At the centre of this mission is Orion: the spacecraft that will be the crew’s home in deep space. What keeps Orion alive and moving is the European Service Module – provided by @ESA. For the first time in more than 50 years, humans are going back to the Moon. ESA, with its Member States, will go down in history as being indispensable in the telling of this story. And this is just the beginning. ESA is proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with its international partners. Together, we are extending humankind’s presence beyond Earth. No matter the circumstances, we believe cooperation remains our most powerful engine for the future.

The @paralympics have begun!! Fantastic to see British ESA astronaut John McFall carrying the flag at the opening ceremony. John himself is a Paralympian, winning a medal at the 2008 Beijing games. Great to see @ParalympicsGB and space being so well represented last night in Paris. Good luck to everyone involved over the next 11 days. Looking forward to seeing lots of incredible sport and competition. #paralympics #space #paris2024
