so international space station astronauts apparently dropped a tool bag during a spacewalk. and if you look outside when the ISS is in your region, you can see it with binoculars
The tool bag is now orbiting our planet just ahead of the ISS with a visual magnitude of around 6, according to EarthSky. That means it is slightly less bright than the ice giant Uranus, the seventh planet from the sun. As a result, the bag — officially known as a crew lock bag — is slightly too dim to be visible to the unaided eye, but skywatchers should be able to pick it up with binoculars.
To see it for yourself, first find out when you can find spot the space station over the next few months (NASA even has a new app to help you). The bag should be floating two to four minutes ahead of the station. As it descends rapidly, the bag is likely to disintegrate when it reaches an altitude of around 70 miles (113 kilometers) over Earth.
i have such embarrassment about sharing my love of star wars with my loved ones because this series is not like. Good. but i am deeply and abidingly obsessed with it ya feel
Actually I’ve already processed all five stages of grief in regards to a beloved author from my childhood very publicly making the jump from “milquetoast liberal with unexamined biases” to “actively dangerous bigot who will double down into perpetuity” and will no longer be basing any part of my identity on her intellectual property! Thanks for asking!
New poster I recently finished! The best throuple <3 This is based on that picture that was going around a few months back, from Twelfth Night - I def had some feelings the first time I saw it and had the idea to draw these 3 based on it! I had so much fun, I love the three of them so dang much <3
