How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Venus Pop?

You’re telling me the rock is going around a ball of nuclear fusion in way that is consistent with our understanding of how rocks go around balls of nuclear fusion? Fascinating. It’s just a catchy headline, isn’t it? I’m guessing the discovery isn’t too revealing?

I know right? It's really cool, there's tons of knowledge out there that people just don't know

What are the implications? Uniquely low orbit? Fast orbit? I’m a layman but I’m curious as to why this means something.

Orion 8 inch Dobsonian. The Apertura 8 inch Dob looks good too. Like so much else nowadays, telescope prices are way up.

Listen, it’s what you do with it that counts.

At the southernmost end of the Texas coast, east of Brownsville.

The "when" is less clear. Maybe late March if we are lucky.

Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer

[Psyche](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psyche_(spacecraft))

I agree with the top-level comment. In terms of crewed spaceflight: Polaris Dawn. First private EVA.

Top 5

Juicey - mission to explore the icey moons of Jupiter.

Chandrayann-3 India’s lunar lander and rover

SLIM- jaxa’s first lunar lander.

Rocket labs Venus mission.

Xuntian (possibly launching?) The Chinese space station telescope. Same resolution as the Hubble but 350 times larger field of view.

Psyche the runner up.

The size of the star doesn’t matter if the star knows what to do.

Any evening launch. They are beautifully lit up by the sun and get a lot of people interested in this stuff, especially out here in LA where not many know about the space connections here.

Okay. That’s fine. From my way of thinking, I would rather speculate and kinda dream “what if” scenarios about topics that aren’t already pretty well understood. For example I’m super curious about things like dark energy, dark matter, and quantum entanglement topics that aren’t really understood yet.

It’s actually well known that black holes are not empty inside. It’s quite the opposite actually. They’re so inconceivably dense that the gravity from it’s mass causes the space time curvature to be so extreme that it’s basically stretching the fabric of space at a rate that not even light can escape, which is why they’re dark.

I'm in dfw. Where's the launch?

Juice? Psche?

Sure, but if you are already buying every rocket you consider an option then there are not many ways to switch.

So not an M class planet then?

I think the difference between gas giants and the smallest brown dwarfs is their origin. Planets are formed in the proto-planetary disk while stars are formed in a nebula as the center of a system

According to Google, there are different requirements for different roles. For commander or pilot, it is 158 to 190cm. For mission specialist it is 149 to 193cm. However, if you are aspiring astronaut, do check with NASA first.

and it will be our undoing
