I made a thing to help me find RSS feeds, and I really liked it. So I made it prettier so you can use it too, if RSS feeds are your thing.

As it turns out, in my corner of the fediverse there’s a ton of them…

The reason I didn’t do any live posting about the Starship launch is I was frantically working on this. Here's my take on the launch (including video from the launch and flight because WOW SpaceX put on a good show here)

Happy moon landing day (hopefully!) Intuitive Machines’ lander is set to attempt the first soft moon landing for a U.S. spacecraft since Apollo 17 in 1972. The attempt will be at 5:30 pm ET, you can watch on NASA TV.

I will be live posting updates!

OKAY. Let’s break down what we’ve learned about the Intuitive Machines mission and talk about, given what we know, was it a success?

A daring mission to revive a defunct NASA telescope? Let's talk about Spitzer Resurrector and speculate on why the Space Force (and not NASA!) is interested in this mission.

Wondering why the Intuitive Machines moon lander has a Columbia Sportswear logo on it?

That’s because it’s basically wearing a Columbia jacket. I break it down in my latest video.

In San Antonio, waiting for the eclipse and the cloud cover is pretty terrible. How is it wherever you are??

The Deep Space Network is currently communicating with Voyager 1!!!! Really hoping it's more than just repeating ones and zeroes

soooooo Odysseus's laser range finders aren't working. They are using NASA's LIDAR now (part of why they needed the extra orbit) but that doesn’t sound ideal.

skrishna, 1 month ago to space

This week’s space news is here!

• There’s a fix in the works for Voyager 1!
• What did the eclipse look like from space?
• How did the moon turn itself inside out early in its existence?
