This is my flag.

It stands for unity, freedom, peace, democracy, equality, civilization, diversity, rule of law, science, beauty and strength.

There is nothing more important to fight for.

A major milestone for sovereign in-orbit servicing in France 🇫🇷

@exotrail has been selected under #France2030 to lead a mission with Astroscale France and @EutelsatGroup to demonstrate the end-to-end deorbiting of a OneWeb satellite by 2030.

We made history. On just our second flight, we became the first commercial space company from Europe to deliver satellites into orbit. Mission 'Onward and Upward' successfully lifted off and deployed payloads into orbit. A new chapter for European spaceflight. More: https://t.co/EQ8NvB6lEo

The Voyager 1 spacecraft celebrates 48 years in space today!

After visiting Jupiter and Saturn, Voyager 1 became the most distant human-made object on Feb 17, 1998. It is now more than 15.6 billion miles from the Sun, zooming through interstellar space. https://t.co/qbF8DFf1RA

Happy launchiversary, Voyager 1! 🥳

48 years ago – on September 5, 1977 – Voyager 1 launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, to study Jupiter and Saturn up close.

Today, Voyager 1 is about 15 billion miles (25 billion km) from Earth – and still revealing secrets of the cosmos!

This snake-like robot is slithering into the future of exploration.

It's called EELS and was developed at JPL with the goal of autonomously exploring hard-to-reach places throughout the solar system, like icy crevasses to deep craters.

Happy #WorldSnakeDay! 🐍

L'Europa non investe poco in R&D, ma investe male, perchè politica e imprese hanno timore dell'innovazione e si muovono in ordine sparso. Il gap di investimenti rispetto agli USA è enorme nelle modalità: il budget federale di R&D in USA è 13x quello federale europeo, dove dominano i sussidi nazionali, frammentati e non coordinati.

📢 NEWS: Hey space debris, we're watching you from every angle! 👀

ADRAS-J has completed not one, but TWO fly-arounds of the upper stage, confirming the planned capture point has no major damage.

This milestone sets the stage for future removal and a sustainable space environment!

Voto utile?
Noi abbiamo un voto che si è dimostrato, negli ultimi 30 anni, inutile pensando di essere utile.

Thank you for having host us onboard, it was really a pleasure, goodbye #OPSSAT 💫

We’ve just received OPS-SAT’s final ever image. ❤️

It was taken off the southern coast of Australia at 22:15 UTC on 20 May.

But every cloud has a silver lining. The OPS-SAT mission will come to an end tonight, but the OPS-SAT name will live on. More info soon.

Ieri 2h45 per fare il tragitto casa #lavoro, praticamente quanto la durata totale di viaggio in un giorno normale. Tra l'altro ultimamente questi giorni normali scarseggiano nell'efficiente #lombardia

After the nozzle failure the on board guidance apparently had a contingency mode to handle the loss of one engine and continued to the landing.

Compare this to Chandrayaan-2 and Luna 25 where the software was incapable of adapting to the situation.
