Aus Gründen habe ich mich gestern gefragt: Wenn wir eine gewisse Menge an Flugverkehr zum Mond 
und zurück hätten, und beim Landen und Starten auf dem Mond jeweils Triebwerke benutzt werden müssten 
, d. h. CO2 oder andere Gase ausgestoßen würden - wie lange würde es wohl dauern, bis auf dem Mond 1. ein Klima und 2. ein Klimawandel entsteht? 
Das ist eine ernstgemeinte Frage.

@ewen@photog.socialTaking a break from reality to watch high-speed film launches of the Space Shuttle.
Stepping back in time to a world when NASA was sending humans into space using a lot less computing power than your new TV.
It's a very calming video, watching thousands of pounds of fuel ignited as the shuttle and it's boosters slowly rise into the sky. 45mins of rockets on fire.
Very special.
@spaceflight@spacey.spaceWe've arranged a #society based on #science and #technology, in which nobody understands anything about science and technology. And this combustible mixture of #ignorance 
and #power 
, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a #democracy 
if the people don't know anything about it ? https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Carl_Sagan#Quotes

@martinemussies@socel.net Rocket Science & Autism (yes, I can and so can you)
When I say I love learning, I mean it. From neuroscience to cuneiform, my autistic brain thrives on deep dives into complex subjects. That's why I’m currently taking "Rocket Science for Everyone" at Yale University via Coursera.
Here are six fascinating facts I learned about orbital mechanics—yes, the physics that keeps satellites in space!

My crew and I used a spinning machine to simulate the lunar gravity to study the growth of the sprouts in that condition!

My name is Benedetta (Benny) and I am Italian.
I am a science communicator and an Analog Astronaut.
My goal is to become the next Italian woman to fly to space!
I am a citizen scientist for NASA and also an asteroid huntress

It does not need #rocketscience to start a (local) #solarpunk revolution. People skills are the spark
Mechanic @drrjv@vmst.ioThis is not #RocketScience: More Guns = More Dead People
“Guns are the problem. Guns. Not mental health. Not gangs on campus. Not students arguing over social media posts. Guns. Without guns, the sickening news alerts that plague our smartphones would disappear.
As the media examined Monday’s school shooting in Wisconsin, we were told that “It’s complicated” and that there are “no simple answers.” That may be true up to a point, but the unifying factor in school shootings is guns”

Ignition: An Informal History of Liquid Rocket Propellants by John D. Clark (foreword by Isaac Asimov !!!!) is one of the best non-fiction books I've read in a long time (heck, it's better than a lot of the fiction books too).
Sure, there's a lot of chemistry, though most of it is understandable if you took high school or college chemistry. #Books #RocketScience #Chemistry #Space

1929, October 15th, Frau im Mond (Girl in the Moon) premiered at the UFA-Palast cinema next to Berlin Zoo. It wasn't Fritz Lang's first #SciFi movie and not just another masterpiece after #Metropolis, but mind blowing with predictions. The visual accuracy was achieved thanks to advisor and rocket scientist Professor Hermann Oberth.
Here You can watch it in color...

, #Ariane6 blasted off on July 9 and successfully carried out a series of trials. But the mission ended with the launcher coasting in orbit without releasing its final batch of payloads. The #Arianespace CEO said the failure had been traced to a #software flaw that would be repaired before the next launch. https://www.reuters.com/technology/space/ariane-6-set-new-launch-this-year-after-software-flaw-identified-2024-09-16
