@Erdayastronaut @maxpolyakov and @ashleevance !! Make it happen!

@ChrisDMarshall @thespacemike @SpaceX @elonmusk SpaceX isn’t a public company, so the above Grok answer would only apply to Tesla right?

I’ve been doing “music in space” workshops and research and, as you may expect, there are extra challenges to how you hold necks, press strings, and create friction.@Cmdr_Hadfield talks about all of the “buzzing and popping” that occurs when he tries playing guitar in space. It’s not possible to hold the guitar to your body easily either, so the feeling is totally different… you don’t get that lovely acoustic vibration in your chest. Since violin is clutched at the chin/shoulder, it has an extra advantage over other instruments, but I have to assume there are challenges to pushing down with the bow on the strings…. This is why I’m obsessed with the music gloves or other wearable instruments that can flow with the environment and the free floating body! Can’t wait to see what new tools we create to make music specifically for that environment!

@dmasten Vyvanse can do awful things if taken by people who don’t need it. Why do you think controls should be loosened?

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

@DrPhiltill I hope Blue picks it up. Or ULA

[Phil Metzger @DrPhiltill]

NASA should at least find a company willing to take over Starliner and run its operations, like ULA took over flight operations for Atlas & Delta rockets from Boeing & Lockheed. The operator should work towards a commercialization plan.

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

Boeing is incurring a huge loss on Starliner, but I wonder if they’d consider selling the IP and hardware to Sierra, Rocket Lab, Relativity, Firefly or Northrop for cheap. Would need a ton of work to fix the issues but a huge shortcut in dev for those companies. Is that possible?

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

@SpaceKate Someone should make an AI to color the nighttime video 😂

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

@wendoverpro Can we get a Logistics of Jet Lag covering the planning, testing, finding a place to sleep etc etc. like, how do you go pee when you’re being chased?!

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

@NASASpaceflight @Alexphysics13 Haha I bet the simple solution is change their licence to hard landing on barge, then it can’t be called a mishap. And if they land it cleanly, just a bonus.

[Matthew Dominick @dominickmatthew]

A quick behind the scenes look at how we setup portraits of ourselves peering out of a Dragon window into the stars from Starliner's cockpit window.

I wasn’t prepared for this timeline

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

I tried really hard to like it… but this week absolutely ruined it for me. Bad Star Wars.

I have been giving #TheAcolyte the benefit of every doubt I can. But it’s a sloppy, sloppy show without a sense of clear purpose or direction. It’s a collection of events more than a story. Just one person’s opinion.

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

@rookisaacman is that you up in the air buzzing YC this evening?! *waves*

[Lisa Stojanovski @LisaStoj]

@Cathrinmachin You and your husband need to go to your local Congressperson. USCIS won’t help you.

[International Space Station @Space_Station]

There is no emergency situation going on aboard the International Space Station. At approximately 5:28 p.m. CDT, audio was aired on the NASA livestream from a simulation audio channel on the ground indicating a crew member was experiencing effects related to decompression sickness (DCS). This audio was inadvertently misrouted from an ongoing simulation where crew members and ground teams train for various scenarios in space and is not related to a real emergency. The International Space Station crew members were in their sleep period at the time. All remain healthy and safe, and tomorrow’s spacewalk will start at 8 a.m. EDT as planned.

[Jari Makinen @jarimakinen]

They have landed, but let's see in what state the lander is. This is the first US soft landing on the Moon since Apollo 17 in Dec 1972.

[Max Fagin 🚀🔴🌐☄🌘 @MaxFagin]

My entire career, it's been received wisdom that Mars was the hardest place to land in the solar system. The 7 minutes of terror, the EDL demon, etc. But the moon is reminding us today that no space landing is easy. Even "just" DDL is still unbelievably hard to get right!
