We're going around the Moon. Come watch with us. Artemis II's four-astronaut crew is lifting off from @NASAKennedy on an approximately 10-day mission that will bring us closer to living on the Moon and Mars. The launch window opens at 6:24pm ET (2224 UTC). https://t.co/X27QJejNDt
Nominal translunar injection burn complete. The Artemis II crew is officially on the way to the Moon.
America is back in the business of sending astronauts to the Moon. This time, farther than ever before.
Happy 96th birthday to Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin! 🎂
We wish him the utmost health and happiness as he completes another orbit around the Sun.
This photo was taken 60 years ago this November as Aldrin embarked on his first spaceflight: Gemini XII.
¿Cómo se Descubrieron las Microondas para Calentar Comida?
Hoy en día usamos el horno de microondas casi sin pensarlo: calentamos café, recalentamos comida o descongelamos algo en cuestión de minutos. Está tan integrado a nuestra vida diaria que cuesta imaginar la cocina sin él. Sin embargo, lo que pocos saben es que el uso de las microondas para cocinar fue un descubrimiento completamente accidental, fruto de la curiosidad científica… ¡y de una barra de chocolate derretida! https://t.co/HpUQ6rjKjC
INCIDENT: We are currently monitoring an unidentified flying sleigh entering NATO airspace. The track originates from the North Pole and is flying an erratic path🎅 No NATO jets have been scrambled.
Georg Cantor introduced the concept of different "sizes" of infinity, which is counter-intuitive when you first encounter it. For many people, the idea of infinity means something without end, unlimited and universally same-sized. But Cantor, through his work on set theory, demonstrated that there are hierarchies of infinity—some infinities are indeed "larger" than others.
On this day in 1969, Apollo 11 entered lunar orbit and the crew got a close-up look at the Sea of Tranquility, where Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin would land in lunar module Eagle the next day.
Where were you #OTD (in fact, on this exact day – Friday, July 18th, 1969) 56 years ago? I can tell you where I was…on the way to the Moon! Happy #Apollo11 Friday!
@USAmbMex I highly recommend going downtown to visit the National Art Museum (Munal - Museo Nacional de Arte) and then having lunch across the Plaza at “Los Girasoles” (which has original recipes from the Chapultepec Castle - including pistachio soup).
@pedroferriz3 A los pobres los lanzo el remolcador a la deriva de la intensa corriente. Debería de haber habido 2 remolcadores y se debieron tomar precauciones por la fuerza de la corriente. Probablemente tiene responsabilidad el servicio de remolcadores. Pobrecitos cadetes!
