If you don’t know the amazing time we’re living in when it comes to spaceflight, then please educate yourself. What a freaking time to be alive to see the achievements being accomplished every single day! Ad Astra Per Aspera!
@insightCr474@FronteraSpacial Technically shorter tower but only because of the new OLM. And the ship did get slightly taller, but V4 will be a real difference in height
Welcome home Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy! 🫶

Liftoff.
The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.
Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.
@NASASpox I know it’s a long shot… but I’m actually studying at Embry Riddle in Daytona right now to do just this. Would you have any words of advice or suggestions for a young student with these big dreams?I would like nothing more than to explore the stars with the worlds finest 🚀✨🇺🇸
I had to get some @krispykreme#Artemis donuts in anticipation of tomorrow. And the Moon is just looking so nice and bright tonight in preparation for its visitors really soon 🚀🚀🚀
Tomorrow, we launch.
At sunset tonight, Artemis II waits on the pad, ready to carry astronauts potentially farther than any humans have traveled in more than half a century.
The next era of exploration begins.

One the most underrated players in league history, congratulations on your retirement @LavonteDavid54 🫡🫡🫡
@Buccaneers Caught this pick of him with a few other Bucs at the last game last season. My first time attending a football game. But little did I know it’d be the last one for Lavonte, and the last with Mike as a Buc😭🏴☠️
So sad to see @MikeEvans13_ go
Figured now’s a good time to post his last walkout the tunnel as a @Buccaneers
Glad I was there to see his last game, he’ll always be a Buccaneer for life 🏴☠️
Take care of our guy San Fran
