Guten Morgen @dlr_next
Ich dachte mir, auch wir können ja mal was zurückgeben!
Das Foto ist natürlich nicht von mir. Und schon millionenfach gezeigt. Aber man kann immer wieder nur ehrfürchtig darüber staunen!

Новостной дайджест для #РегулярныеВыражения 2024.06.14:
— В возрасте 90 лет погиб Билл Андрес, астронавт программы Аполлон, автор знаменитой фотографии ”Восход Земли”. Он умер, пытаясь выполнить петлю на маленьком самолёте.
Из 24 астронавтов, побывавших на и над Луной, в живых остаются лишь 6.

— Starliner совершил свой первый успешный пилотируемый полёт к МКС, доставив на борт 2 астронавтов. До этого этот-же корабль летал только с неживым грузом в автоматическом режиме.
Перед запуском была выявлена утечка гелия, используемого для нагнетания давления в маневровых баках корабля, но после очередной задержки его решили запускать не смотря на утечку. Во время полёта обнаружилось ещё пара утечек, последнюю, пятую утечку, обнаружили уже после стыковки с МКС.

I have a framed copy of his famous #Earthrise photo. Never get tired of seeing it.
The irony of him surviving a trip to the moon but dying in a plane crash on earth.
