Before you follow me:
• I like space.
• I don't like Elon Musk.
• SpaceX builds incredible rockets.
• SpaceX is not Elon Musk.
• Liking rockets is not the same as worshipping billionaires.
• Criticizing SpaceX doesn't mean I want it to fail.
And fuck fascism.
Getting our cameras ready for Artemis III🚀
A July test fire of a hydrogen burn-off ignitor at NASA Stennis is providing data for the agency to dial in the perfect camera settings for the @NASAArtemis III launch in 2027.
Artemis III is intended to demonstrate integrated operations between the Orion spacecraft and test versions of commercial human landing systems before Artemis IV returns astronauts to the lunar surface.
About 10 seconds before NASA’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket lifts off from @NASAKennedy, hydrogen burn-off ignitors will safely burn off excess hydrogen gas.
Here’s the challenge:
This flare, which looks like a firework sparkler during launch, is incredibly bright.
Just like you might squint if looking toward the Sun, our high-speed launch cameras, recording at 400 frames per second, can react to intense light by closing its aperture too much.
Clear imagery is essential for post-launch analysis, real-time situational awareness during liftoff, and to verify hardware status in the event of a premature engine shutdown.
This test provides data so that cameras capture every detail without being overwhelmed by the flare.

@Lowcci@Voidsspace this IS the shit that homophobic straight men do, this isn't a contradiction. they are just like this, because homosexuality is a joke to them. anything relating to it is comical to them even if it is definitionally sexual assault.
@FranklinCamarg0@Luprimha Ocios que está mal visto disfrutar porque no estoy generando capital 24/7, o mejor aún que no me puedo comprar porque debí usar ese dinero para invertir o algo
YEY gracias por tanto capitalismo
Pluto isn't the 9th planet.
It's either:
The most famous dwarf planet
The 10th planet (Ceres is closer to the sun)
Or the 26th planet because you're just calling gravitationally rounded objects including moons a planet.
There is a way to make Pluto the 9th planet you know in your heart it should be: allow me to grind Mercury down into a Dyson Swarm.
@ThePrimalDino Dwarf planet" it's a perfectly fine title to have, why are we still fighting over this?
It's a "plant" worse than a "tree"? I don't think an object smaller than our moon should be in the same category as earth, furthermore, I vote for "gas giants" to be another separate thing

Nunca me había pasado que un préstamo se cobrara sin mi consentimiento, pinches empresas culeras, del puro coraje a ver cuando les pago, aunque sea con recargos
@gyattmosphere@naelcmsyhr@Phoumi1975 If I hadn't spent at least a few minutes a day on silly stuff to keep me sane at my worst I probably wouldn't be here. Don't underestimate mental health
De verdad me cuesta imaginar un escenario mas indigno para arruinar tu vida para siempre, que en un callejon pitero a pleno sol de medio dia, rodeado de puros borrachos apestosos.
