Air Traffic Control and outer space are main interests. Mostly in English, some in Norwegian.

Er det like mange feil i de sakene hvor jeg ikke kan så mye om temaet mon tro? Må jo nesten anta det, for noe er feil stort sett hver gang media skriver om luftfart. Denne gangen ved @vgnett

@newslars Flott oversikt over planene om å returnere til månen! Men månen er ikke alltid mørk på andre siden. Det er plenty av lys i perioder på det meste av månen, men noen kratere blir aldri fullt opplyst. Forklares fint her:

.@pavilladsen og @tv2nyhetene Ja, det tok bare ni måneder det. Er så lei av at man skal prøve å tjene penger på falske, overdrevent negative spådommer. Dette kan dere ikke ha trodd på ordentlig!

Hey @FlyrNorway, what does the FOX say? Eller, mer spesifikt, hva skal vi kalle dere? Spenningen er til å ta og føle på! Hilsen ATC (veldig) nær dere!

Good morning from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, where launch of SpaceX’s next crew mission to the International Space Station is set for 5:49am EDT (0949 GMT).

Weather looks favorable, with light winds and a few clouds in a moonlit sky over the spaceport.

On today’s abort test, SpaceX aims to trigger an abort of the Crew Dragon capsule 84 seconds after launch on a Falcon 9 rocket.

The rocket is expected to break apart — possibly in a high-altitude fireball — while the capsule deploys chutes for splashdown. https://t.co/aocyihhVRd

Amazing views over China on the way to Hong Kong earlier. This time lapse shows the very high terrain, up to 20000 feet, to the north west of Lanzhou. #timelapse #viewfromtheflightdeck

@SpaceflightNow Revert to VAB!
Add more boosters! 😎
