One Of My Favorite Scenes.

So excited for this. I will be in DC at this time!

50 years ago, three Apollo astronauts rode this 363 foot tall rocket, the Saturn V, embarking on one of the greatest missions of mankind – to step foot on another world. On July 20, 1969, astronauts Buzz Aldrin, Michael Collins and Neil Armstrong made history when they arrived at the Moon. Thanks to the Saturn V rocket, we were able to complete this epic feat, returning to the lunar surface a total of six times. The six missions that landed on the Moon returned a wealth of scientific data and almost 400 kilograms of lunar samples. 

In honor of this historic launch, the National Air and Space Museum is projecting the identical rocket that took our astronauts to the Moon on the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C.

This week, you can watch us salute our Apollo 50th heroes and look forward to our next giant leap for future missions to the Moon and Mars. Tune in to a special two-hour live NASA Television broadcast at 1 p.m. ET on Friday, July 19. Watch the program at www.nasa.gov/live.

I love this!

So beautiful! I miss this team.

Stargate SG-1 Friendships

One of the many things I love about this show is that they weren`t afraid of intimacy between friends. They early on established that SG-1 is a group of people who are very close to each other and care deeply about each other. Like Sam put it into words once: “We were a team, Teal'c. No one can even begin to understand what we went through together, what we mean to each other.” So it was only natural they were comfortable with each other enough to share a hug or touch in the moments of great discomfort or the great joy.

Oh Daniel. I’m so sorry. (Hated this) :(

Comparing the rotations of objects in the Solar System. Just look at them lol.✨🪐

To everyone that's confused, the planet Venus rotates very very slowly, with a single revolution taking about 243 Earth days, and Mercury rotates slowly, but not as slow as Venus.

Here’s another photo of De (looking awesome in his coat, vest and tie) during the Star Trek production team’s visit to a NASA facility in 1967.

The photos below have been posted before by me and others (check out @star trek nasa visit), but I like to have them all together in one post, so there you go.

Reblogging because this is brilliant.
