noooo! get the kitty out of the box! any box but that one! nooooo!
An interesting model of our solar system’s path as it travels through space in the Milky Way.
Certainly a departure from usual models that show the Sun as a static object, which it certainly isn’t
I had no idea this was happening. Where are we going?
To fuck some shit up
Around the center of the Milky Way, which is heading towards the Andromeda Galaxy. And our whole Local Group is moving towards the Virgo Cluster.
But we’ll never actually reach the Virgo Cluster because space is expanding between us and them faster than we’re moving towards it.
Motherfucking science.
Cool!

Due to my strong personal convictions, I wish to stress that this image in no way endorses a belief in the “JIF” pronunciation.
Ditto. I don’t care what that guy says, he should’ve said something 10 or 15 years ago. It’s too late now.
Were going to space!

Good news, everyone!
The bad news is that this will be the last season :(
The Earliest Days of NASA
Maria Popova, at Brain Pickings, happened upon a treasure trove of early NASA (and its airplane-only predecessor NACA) archive photos. They are really something. From biplanes to the Mercury capsule, pre-1950 aeronautics seemed to live by the motto of “If we build it, then we can go there.” That’s a sentiment we could use a bit more of.
Yes please!
