Reply to comment by Hustler-1 in This is what the sky looked like during the spacex rocket launch by Zommerfeld
I would be surprised if that's something they specifically aim for. Probably start with final launch preparation in the morning and then launch in the afternoon or so, depending on how much time they need. They don't need to reach any specific orbital plane so they can make a long launch window for all the things that will cause delays.

Just think, that little dot is every thing and person that ever was, it is our only home.

I’d give anything to see one of those.

You know what, that part I kinda guessed.
Not sure what tipped me of, maybe the fact that he literally wrote “Don’t look up” in the comment, but it’s hard to know for sure.

Neil deGrasse Tyson said that a similar experience led him to pursue astronomy as a career.

The universe is vast; human beings are insignificant. You cried because you have begun to see that truth. Let go and get over yourself and you'll achieve the inner peace we all seek. Oh... alcohol helps too.

In short, i think so. I had a similar experience when i was a teen. Black rock dry lake bed in nevada. I could read by the light from the stars. I think about it still and get emotional

It's many times too small to reach the ground, it'll entirely burn up in the atmosphere.

First sentence from the NASA page:
> With Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon, using innovative technologies to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before.

I'm glad to hear you enjoy this kind of thing! I had a quick look at your post history and you have made some really great stuff, keep it up!
When I first saw this I was wondering how you had generated the left and right images and thought you may have been using images captured at different times to simulate the lateral separation. That is a super neat way of approaching this stereogram, and it would explain why it works so well since you only have motion along a single axis (minimising vertical disparities, which can cause issues).
Unfortunately the stereo images I have made are rather boring, usually a texture patch that is magnified in one eye to give the impression of slant. However, it is something I would like to dabble in when I have some time off. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for anything you make in the future!
