🚨SPACEX TO LAUNCH FIRST-EVER HUMAN POLAR MISSION: FRAM2 CREW... GOING WHERE NO ONE HAS BEFORE Monday night's Falcon 9 launch will send Dragon spacecraft on unprecedented journey orbiting both Earth's poles in low orbit. This mission marks the first time humans will fly a complete polar orbit - venturing over both Arctic and Antarctic regions. The veteran Dragon capsule previously carried Crew-1, Inspiration4, and made history during Polaris Dawn with the first commercial spacewalk. The four-person crew will conduct 22 research studies including taking the first-ever X-ray in space and growing mushrooms in microgravity. Source: SpaceX RTshow more

Major Tom. This is an empty space suit released... into orbit. On February 3, 2006, astronauts from Expedition 12 pushed an old Russian space suit away from the International Space Station. The suit was fitted with radio equipment and turned into a tiny satellite called SuitSat. As it drifted through space, it broadcast signals for a short time before the equipment failed. From Earth, it looked eerily like a floating human figure, silently moving through the darkness of orbit. For months, this lifeless suit circled our planet no astronaut inside, no control, just a hollow reminder of human presence in space until atmospheric drag finally pulled it back down. Some called him Major Tom, when ground control had the last message…show more

The kind of view that makes you stop scrolling... for a moment. ✨ Captured in a timelapse from the International International Space Station, this sequence follows Earth as auroras ripple beneath the station and sunrise slowly edges over the planet’s curve. What begins as a quiet glow on the horizon becomes a full sweep of daylight in seconds, a transition you can only witness from orbit 250 miles above our world.show more
