Welcome home Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy! 🫶
The Artemis II astronauts have splashed down at 8:07pm ET (0007 UTC April 11), bringing their historic 10-day mission around the Moon to an end.
Orion's main parachute has deployed. The spacecraft has a system of 11 chutes that will slow it down from around 300 mph to 20 mph for splashdown.

I vividly remember this occasion... It was 30 years ago.
He interviewed me for a series for a Dutch TV channel. You can see in the picture the opening of a game I won against Wolfgang Uhlmann, sacrificing 2 pawns for a huge attack on the kingside. We analysed this game together during the interview that he picked himself. Do you know why this one? Because it was the moment when he realised that I am... a special player, he said in the interview. His statement gave me a lot and encouraged me.🙏
Many years later, in 2020, we changed the roles, and I conducted an interview with him (you can watch it in the BIO). I respected his chess, his artistic vision of chess as a practical player and as a chess composer, and respected his character.
Rest In Peace, Jan Timman 🕯️

"The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth and truth be defamed as lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world — and the category of truth versus falsehood is among the mental means of this orientation — is being destroyed." – Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)
