Cosmic Jellyfish Seen Over Russia -

A man-made spacecraft....

Soyuz-2.1b missile launched from the Plesetsk cosmodrome - But what is its purpose? And why does it spray so much stuff in the atmosphere?

Viime yönä näkyi rakettilaukaisu ainakin pohjoissuomessa. Täälläpäin oli pilvistä.

I seem to be in a bit of a #space mood 🪐🔭 at the moment 😅, so I remembered that I once visited the #Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC and wrote a short blog post about it. I thought I would share it again here:

Trump Just Lost a War for America — No One's Done That Since Nixon **UPDATED**

TLDR Trump loosed the dogs of war, screwed the pooch, and now gets to eat a dogshit sandwich. He won on day one and lost everything. Iran's regime literally changed — new Supreme Leader, wartime mandate, unified population — and the US is still bombing...

Soyuz "Globus" Mechanical Navigation Computer Part 1: Grand Opening

Just finished reading the third in the #Apollo Murders series by Canadian polymath Chris #Hadfield. I’ve very much enjoyed the first two and the third is just as good; possibly even a titch better.

I sincerely hope he writes more, even if not in the same series. He’s got great skill at the thriller genre; at the same level as Bagley or Deighton. He’s just that good.

Honestly, Commander Hadfield is seemingly able to perfectly do anything he puts his hand to. Novelist, astronaut and ISS commander, fighter test pilot, musician (he did a Bowie cover IN SPACE!!), author of a children’s book and his memoirs, owns a 55 T-Bird and Piper Comanche which get used regularly… Honestly, he’s making the rest of us look bad and needs to do something poorly! Bah!

I’m kidding, but he does seem to be perfect at anything he puts his mind to.

Read these books. You’ll thank me later.

Very highly recommended
