Anyhow. came across this picture of the #Moon taken during daylight through our telescope in 2020. The photo was actually done with a mobile phone right up to the eyepiece, so a very amateur bit of astronomy!
“We are at risk of a Wild West scenario due to the rivalries between competing space agencies and commercial interests. … A new International space treaty is urgently needed.”
Probably no #Vulcan#rocket maiden launch in early May because of problems with its #Centaur V upper stage! "Keeping you posted," the ULA CEO just tweeted in https://twitter.com/torybruno/status/1641270272987676672: "During Qual testing of Centaur V structural article at MSFC, the hardware experienced an anomaly. This is is why we thoroughly & rigorously exercise every possible condition on the ground before flight. Investigation is underway. Vulcan will fly when complete." And so the #Peregine#lunar lander stays grounded.
The original #SegaCD version of #Lunar The Silver Star remains far and away my favorite version. I dislike the story changes the made to Silver Star Remake, and prefer the battle system of the original. Most importantly, I think the original Sega CD opening video completely, utteraly blows away the #PSX and #SegaSaturn opening videos.
There exists on an OST in japan a very rare full length rendition of the JPN version of the sega CD opening that completely 100% rules: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6QY1vxo_EQ

Close to the center of this image is the crater Malapert A, where the #Odysseus spacecraft has come to rest on its side. The pole itself is 300 km further away in the darkness.
