Blue Origin suffers a rocket failure today. Non-manned mission, the capsule escapes safely. Launch starts around 1:19:00

DadHawk sometimes specializes in reporting SPAM. Like now for example.

It is beyond my understanding thinking about the size of some of the curves in that dust.

The pillars are composed of cool molecular hydrogen and dust that are being eroded by photoevaporation from the ultraviolet light of relatively close and hot stars. The leftmost pillar is about four light years in length.[7] The finger-like protrusions at the top of the clouds are larger than the Solar System, and are made visible by the shadows of evaporating gaseous globules (EGGs), which shield the gas behind them from intense UV flux.[8] EGGs are themselves incubators of new stars.[9] The stars then emerge from the EGGs, which then are evaporated.

Didn't watch live, but did watch the video. Too bad it was so foggy would have loved to have seen clearer shots.

The booster landings are amazing, to the point where they still don't look real. Would love to see that in person. Too bad there wasn't enough fuel remaining to try to recover the main booster.

Artemis I launch hopefully tonight. Really want to stay up and watch it live, but not sure I'll make it. I guess I'll watch it time delayed on Wednesday.

It's up there. No failures. Yet. Hope it goes off without a hitch.
If the SRB's or the MRB's didn't decide to blow up, everything else looks good.

Beautiful launch. As a "child of Apollo" it gave me the same goosebumps as watching the Apollo/Saturn rockets. Godspeed Artemis I!

Possible naked-eye comet will visit Earth for 1st time since Neanderthals in 2023


Quote:
According to NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the comet has a period of around 50,000 years. This means that prior to it coming to within around 100 million miles (160 million kilometers) of the sun on Jan. 12 and 26 million miles (42 million kilometers) of Earth on Feb. 2, the last time it came so close was during the Upper Paleolithic period on Earth.
