>>285 gotta say that's a lotta good arguments. might turn me into a mercurynigger.
>>278 dumbass nigga never heard of the kármán line
hop wen
>>286 Don't know. Bored trannies is the most likely explanation. A lot of the profiles I've checked out advertise their pronouns. Even the furnigger SpaceBasedFox (confirmed for browsing /sfg/) has joined in on the larp.
>>220 >>271 their tits are too small. we wanna see big freefloating bazongas.
>>285 >technically on average the closest system to every planet FUCK YOU CGP GREY GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY THREAD REEEEEE
found you space frens, not gonna post more "sfg is dead" for at least the next two weeks, this time it died for real :(
>>206 >Looks like China is targeting 2029 for their crewed landing attempt. is this delayed? i remember it was always before 2030.
I saw someone theorise that mercury could be the exposed core of Theia. There's probably no way that's true but it's a cute notion so I'll choose to believe it for now.
NASA Astronaut Don Pettit Soyuz MS-26 Re-entry and Landing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DmBm9gP460 just entered peak heating
>>296 >peak heating now leaving peak heating, max g was 4.2 declining, waiting for chutes deploy
1 minute till touchdown
>>297 nominal, crew feeling great, 1000 metres, 900 metres above ground
>Tips over Soyuz legacy.
gonna be real with you guys, in terms of recovery helicopters > boats
manned landings should be a daily occurrence by now... its 2025 wtf
Petit landed on his 70th birthday. Next on /sfg/: Sun Apr 20, 2025 14:29 CEST SpaceX launches NROL-145 from SLC-4E, Vandenberg SFB, California, USA; Sun Apr 20, 2025 19:51 CEST 52246 Donaldjohanson : Lucy Donaldjohanson Flyby Following its launch aboard an Atlas V in 2021, NASA's Lucy spacecraft will fly past asteroid 52246 Donaldjohanson, a C-type asteroid in the main belt, at a distance of 596 miles (960 km). The flyby will serve as a dress rehearsal for Lucy's main mission: the exploration of multiple Jupiter Trojan asteroids. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OL9_0sagfBg Mon Apr 21, 2025 10:15 CEST SpaceX launches a cargo Dragon to the space station, from LC-39A, Kennedy Space Center, Florida, USA;

wip making circles in GIMP is so annoying
>>143 If the signature on K2-18b actually does happen to be life, it puts a big statistical lower bound on the number of life bearing planets in the galaxy. We can only detect one in fifty, or even one in one hundred planets by the transit method: for every one we detect, there are 49 to 99 that we miss. Just one detection like this means there is a lot of life out there.
Kyplanet is a pretty good exoplanet covering channel, rare to find space focused channels that aren't either braindead popsci or thunderfagging. He just made a decent video on >>143 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7wOpJmGkmA
>>310 This video's narration is incredibly repetitive. The smug "Acktchually" thing is that five-sigma bullshit raising its head outside of particle physics when it has no fucking business sticking its nose outside of highly statistically dependent datasets, and the detection on K2-18B exceeds the interstellar medium and comet finds by five orders of magnitude (1 part DMS in 600,000 H2, versus 1 part in 10 BILLION for the interstellar medium and its closely matching cometary find).
>>268 god i wanna fuck io
>>196 The lowest point on Mars is badwater crater in the hellas planitia, i hope they go there and the Valles Marineris
>>311 >repetitive Fair enough, I think the guy is a 20yo and writing isn't his strong suit. They can't all be Homemade Documentaries tier. >Sigma bullshit I also dislike this being thrown around like a buzzword, but here it's warranted. Since news outlets were using claims of "it's le 3 sigma" to promote the discovery, it has to be addressed since it was plainly wrong.
>>311 meaning what
>>315 It's more nitpicking than debunking.
how many 2 weeks left before the next starship attempt?
>>317 Probably about two
>>308 What do you use for guidance? Do you just draw a grid or does GIMP have aligning tools? I've been using Paint.NET my whole life so I don't know which is better for infographics like this.
>>308 can you not just hold shift with the ellipse tool to make a uniform circle?
bros...
>feds pushing this europa war trend on twitter to obscure search results for europa the last battle Least obvious kike psyop.
>>322 Why would anyone care about a random movie from 2017?
