Before the sun got started this morning, the moon still had something to say.

It still seems unreal to me that humans will soon be flying back to the moon! They will be returning to Earth at a speed of 40.000 km/h, the fastest ever reentry of a crewed spacecraft.
To get an idea what such a reentry looks like, I made this remastered version of the Artemis 1 reentry from 2022 with trajectory data overlayed.

I hate this shit actually - if the world wasn’t full of f**kwits ruining it for everyone civilization wouldn’t need saving!
What a load of w**k!!!

SpaceX is putting its longstanding focus of sending humans to Mars on the back burner to prioritize establishing a settlement on the moon. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/09/companies/spacex-mars-moon-musk/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #spacex #mars #moon #elonmusk #space #rockets #nasa
I am glad #ElonMusk is pivoting away from #Mars first & focusing on the #Moon 🌖 right now.

Previously Musk was Mars first, Moon 🌕 is a distraction.

I think a good old fashioned space race 2.0 on the moon will also benefit humanity by redirecting energy away from imperialistic desires on Earth & move them towards building off world cities.
Our eyes do such a great job selectively compensating for such a bright object without messing everything else up. The camera is like, "what do you want to see: normal sky/stars and blown out moon, or a nice moon and everything else underexposed?"

Many people know about #Istanbul sunsets. what is less known is that once in a while the city also manages to deliver moonrises as well. (I certainly didn't know and I live here...).

Seattle-based #Interlune was created to seek out and harvest #helium3 and other resources on the #moon - but now it's also aiming to help #NASA build base camps and other infrastructure on the lunar surface. https://www.geekwire.com/2026/interlune-excavator-helium-3-moon-construction/ #Space #Artemis
Where Silence Glows
Pure magic as the great red moon quietly rises. The sea greets it with a brief unrest, then gently settles again. You stand there, silent, witnessing the moment as the night takes reign.
