This happens to social distancing norms when you make ~180 people wait in a small airport for testing of #COVID. Social distancing norms are flouted, and you risk being INFECTED, all the while when you were waiting to be tested. Scene at @aaiagtairport. 1/n
That's it, folks. No private company had ever put humans into space before today.
Never.
And you witnessed it. What a bright future is ahead of us if we do not lack the courage and grace to go forward into it.
Wow, wow, wow!
SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket launched the STP-2 mission at 2:30am this morning. The two side cores, flying their second mission, returned to land successfully at Cape Canaveral.
It was incredible. Simply incredible.
It seems to me you lived your life
like a rover in the wind
never fading with the sunset
when the dust set in.
Your tracks will always fall here,
among Mars' reddest hills;
your candle's burned out long before
your science ever will.
#ThanksOppy. I owe you so much.
Wow! My first ever abstract got accepted for #LPSC2019. Abstract #1371 is all about an Indian Ordinary Chondrite, which fell on Feb' 07. #Meteorites

#HistoricMoment: Watch as the Chang'e-4 probe makes a soft-landing on the moon's far side. China National Space Administration (CNSA) on Friday released the first video from the lunar lander, which touched down on the previously unexplored side of the moon on Jan 3.
Absolutely beautiful video created using still images taken by the Cassini spacecraft during its flyby of Jupiter and while at Saturn. Shown is Io and Europa over Jupiter's Great Red Spot and then Titan as it passes over Saturn and it's edge-on rings. NASA/JPL/Kevin M. Gill
