A little chunk of VeeFriends for Teachers just landed in my inbox

Thankful 💚

My students will be THRILLED to receive these special collectables

How did this happen??
@jeremyknowsVF notified me as soon as the @RemixGG_ game contest started. J and @veefriends wanted to support MY students and MY classroom by offering prizes locally for them.

Thank you @krainak for seeing me and more importantly investing in the creativity of these young people.

PS: Teacher is keeping the hoodie 💚🤖

It's cool that these analogous missions are happening in parallel 58 years apart; Polaris Program in many ways is a modern commercial Project Gemini, developing new technologies and reaching new heights, all ahead of future deep space missions. Both missions featured Earth-orbit apogee records and spacewalks.

So many good questions! Sarah Gillis did an amazing job playing “Rey’s Theme” from @starwars by John Williams. Inspiring and full of hope!

[Scott Manley @DJSnM]

Would love to know how the mechanics of playing the violin in space change. Specifically the bow now doesn’t have the natural weight of the arm, so how much practice did Sarah get before this final version.
Also, I’m wondering if this was kept out of vacuum, wood has lots of natural volatiles that can out gas.

@HTownAstro713 Let’s gooooooooo 🚀🤘🏽

@coolguytoknow @AjmcmillNFT Such a great pin!

The Polaris Program team is incredibly honored to share this global music moment with the world!

@Gillis_SarahE played a space-qualified violin on board the Dragon spacecraft and sent us the footage and audio back via Starlink. We mixed this footage alongside a set of beautiful orchestra performances, both from a dedicated assembly of professional performers in the United States — as well as youth players from around the world.

Joining us in this moment is John Williams, the legendary composer who is responsible for some of the most iconic scores in the history of film and music. I had the honor of photographing him alongside the crew in Los Angeles. His soft and gentle presence is unlike that of anyone I've ever met, and it was a unique privilege to watch him share this moment with Sarah and the entire crew.

In addition to being an engineer at SpaceX, Sarah is a remarkably talented classically-trained violinist who has been playing since a young age. As access to space continues to expand through commercial missions like Polaris Dawn, it is high time that we send more and more artists, poets, and creative individuals to space. This is one big step toward that future.

Enjoy the music from space and around the world!

It’s coming along! Still need to do touch up work and deciding if I want to add a cool resin pour top layer. What do you think! 🤔

SpaceX is turning dreams and renders into reality

Take a second to go outside tonight and take a look at our wonderful Moon! After all, it’s Observe The Moon night!

Luckily, I took our telescope out LAST night because I live in #newengland and I KNEW better. Clouds tonight. But still have these pictures to dream about Luna with…
