Dahling you simply must read this book! It’s all about this devious little caterpillar who simply gorges himself on all manner of divine things

when i was a kid i decided that killing people was bad therefore war was bad therefore the military was evil. and adults would tell me it's more nuanced than that and i would understand when i grew up. well i'm a grown up now and idk i still think that killing people is bad and war is bad and the military is evil

“But liking that is cringe!!” Okay but have you considered that I don’t care?

do you remember when force awakens came out and everyone was talking about stormpilot? do you remember during the rise of skywalker press tour the entire cast was asked if reylo or finnpoe is better and everyone said finnpoe? do you remember when all we had were two scenes and a lip bite? do you remember his jacket? do you remember that's one hell of a pilot? do you remember how we used to run?

I just really love how human this mission feels. Both the crew and the ground making fun jokes and references ("amaze, amaze, amaze!") or things like Glover saying "hello baby!" to his family back on Earth, or how "moon joy" has become the team's favorite phrase, or those craters being named "Integrity" and "Carroll," or the astronauts being encouraged to describe how seeing the moon makes them feel (and doing so to a moving degree), and also describing how much working and talking together improves their capabilities on all fronts, and both sides constantly telling each other how excited they are and that there's "smiles all around" Not that missions like Apollo never had stuff like this, but it's different hearing it all live. Wonderful experience all around.

Learned recently the Artemis II mission is carrying a 1in. x 1in. piece of the canvas used in the Wright brother’s Flyer, oohhh man. I love technology but I also adore beyond everything the sentiment for the past we attach to advancements, because a lot of people think there’s no need to remember the time we could barely figure out plane flight while blasting off to go briefly orbit the moon.

There’s sometimes a mindset of science purely for advancement, the next big thing, which feels both distinctly human and un-human (inhuman? Uhhhh) It’s our nature to go as far as we can, build until we hit something that can actually stop us. Learn and see it all. But we’re also the people that saw shapes in the stars; we have to give it all meaning. Artemis II is only one part of a much larger plan, but by itself it’s still an incredible feat. Every step of the way has meaning to the world, and taking a single square inch of fabric to make us look back is a really nice reminder of all of it.

An Artemis plush being in the NASA Mission Control Room during Artemis II's journey is the sweetest thing and it makes me very weepy 💖

sailor moon kitty overseeing the mission control room in houston as we leave orbit to head for the moon??? based.

Watching a live stream of the moon from the comfort of my living room while I sip on a hot chocolate and read a book about space. No notes.

I could get more poetic about this, but Artemis 2 is taking the first woman up from Mother Earth to see Selene... women really rule the world, and are the whole universe

wild that we started this season with buck going Oh eddie has a new work bestie. he doesn't need me as much anymore. meanwhile eddie pulled at least three expressions yesterday to suggest he was contemplating moving into buck's roof cavity to keep a closer eye on him

[vonlipvig]

can we pretend that astrophage in the night sky are like shooting stars? i could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now.

favourite yaoi-goggles moment in project hail mary was carl telling grace "you know who you are" and then the next shot was grace with a rainbow plastered over his face in the light.... beautiful symbolism for the yaoi community no notes

[linalogged]

Project hail mary is quickly creeping up my list of best space movies ever because what the hell do you mean they didn't use any green screen? that rocky is a mix of practical effects (puppetry) and cgi? that the composer daniel pemberton made sure to use as much human body percussion and "earthly" sounds to root the film back to its sense of humanity? its really just the perfect movie.....
