I like astronomy and physics.

A collapsible, toy-inspired robot; a space telescope with a fluid, self-healing mirror; and on-demand, custom manufactured spacesuits:

With the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts program, these visionary ideas could turn science fiction into science fact. https://t.co/wLrns0ZaXD

Thought I’d weigh in on the whole “alien” thing. In case you haven’t heard, in a congressional hearing there were credible sworn statements indicating the US government is in possession of alien remains, both biological and from their “craft”.

I’ve never seen firsthand evidence of aliens (since I’m asked constantly.) My relatively narrow perspective on the universe isn’t a good source of evidence in either direction though. There are many photos and videos of things I’ve seen and heard that I can’t explain, so I can’t definitively say one way or another if we’ve ever been “visited.”

No evidence was produced during the hearing, so right now all we have is sworn testimony, which frankly means very little to me. Worth investigation, but a claim like this that fundamentally changes what we know about the universe in such a profound way needs considerably scrutiny. Without evidence, I’m going to have to assume the whistleblower is either misinformed or intentionally lying for reasons I don’t understand. Maybe they wanted their 15 minutes of fame, who knows. Either way, I am glad this topic is getting attention and I hope whatever the truth is comes to light. I do hope I’m wrong, because recovering a FTL-capable craft could be a key way to unlocking the mysteries of the universe. Making this information public allows physicists from all over the world able to work on reverse engineering it, and would benefit humanity in tremendous ways.

I 100% believe there is other life out there. Whether or not we ever encounter it will be based on how rare it is and if we (or any alien creature) can move beyond our current understanding of physics to travel these distances.

What are your thoughts, do you think there are alien remains on Earth?

THEY GOT HIM 😭

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Starship liftoff in slow motion

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

As if the flight test was not exciting enough, Starship experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly before stage separation

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Launch attempt tomorrow

[NASA's Johnson Space Center @NASAJohnson]

One year. Four crew members. 1,700 square feet.

This summer, four volunteers will begin a yearlong Mars mission in this ground-based habitat, helping @NASA prepare for human exploration of Mars for the benefit of humanity.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Starship launch trending towards near the end of third week of April

[ARCHIVED NASA Exoplanets @NASAExoplanets]

Scientists made models for TRAPPIST-1 b: with an atmosphere and without. @NASAWebb's measurements matched the model for a planet without atmosphere. This bodes well for Webb's ability to study temperate, Earth-size planets, like other TRAPPIST-1 worlds. https://t.co/NbGCQAYPBx

[Axiom Space @Axiom_Space]

When astronauts return to the Moon as part of @NASA Artemis III mission, they will be wearing Axiom Space’s next-gen spacesuit. The new Axiom Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit will provide advanced capabilities. #AxEMU

[Astronomy Live @astroferg]

Here's a highly compressed 1080p preview of my footage. This is easily the best launch footage I have ever captured, stay tuned for the full launch to landing in 4K! Big thanks to @LCS_Big_Mike for running the focuser for me!

The fun thing about modern technology is that the faster it happens, the faster it happens.

[Tai @TajgurTweets]

@elonmusk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Human Spaceflight @esaspaceflight]

From liftoff to splashdown: the @NASAArtemis I mission in 1 minute.

A stellar flight and a wonderful collaboration with thousands @NASA, @esa, @AirbusSpace, @LMSpace and many more 👏.

Let's go #Artemis II ! 🚀👩‍🚀👨‍🚀🌔

Today General Mirosław Hermaszewski - The only Polish person that was in space (so far) had passed away. He was a huge inspiration for me when I was a little kid. Rest in peace.
