After more than 12 years the (possibly) last episode of the Space Rocket History Podcast came out yesterday:

On this day in 1183 BCE, traditional reckoning of the Fall of Troy marks the end of the legendary Trojan War. #Troy #TrojanWar
On this day in 1916, Easter Rising: Irish rebels launch an uprising in Dublin against British rule and proclaim an Irish Republic.#Ireland #EasterRising
On this day in 1967, Soviet Cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov dies in Soyuz 1 as its parachute becomes entangled. The first man to die during a space mission. #Soyuz #Space
Welcome home, NASA Astronaut Don Pettit, and happy 70th birthday!
Yes, 70!
This marks the end of MS-26 with 220 days in space and 93.3 million statute miles in travelled in space.
Da scheint jemand etwas gegen Amerikaner zu haben, oder will zumindest keine Berichterstattung mit einem von ihnen zeigen.

Die Erde im #Mondschein: Dieses #Zeitraffervideo aus #Fotoserien der #ISS zeigt erleuchtete Städte, die schimmernde #Atmosphäre und leuchtende #Wolken bei Mondschein. Normalerweise könnte man bei #Dunkelheit nur die Städte sehen. Die Fotos wurden 2016 während der #ISS-Expedition 46/47 aufgenommen. Ein faszinierender Blick auf den wunderschönen Planeten bei #Nacht. 🌍✨

Hallo #Startrek - und #Weltraum -Fans!
Beim Blättern im #Space -Kalender fiel mir heute der Eintrag vom 27. März 1968 auf: #Vulkan training group selected.
Dahinter verbirgt sich ein einmaliges Experiment: #Schweißen im Weltraum. Durchgeführt wurde es auf #Soyuz 6 1969 und die Schweißnähte waren wohl gut, jedoch: "...While welding, Kubasov almost burned through the hull of the vehicle's Living Compartment".
#Scotty, beam me up, und Sorry Mr #spock

✧ Apollo 9 ✧
Apollo 9 was the third crewed mission in the United States Apollo program. Launched by a Saturn V rocket from the Kennedy Space Center on March 3, 1969, and flown in low Earth orbit, the mission flight-qualified the Lunar Module (LM), showing that its crew could fly it independently, then rendezvous and dock, as would be ...

Later today, the first commercial launch of an #Ariane6 rocket is planned, after the maiden flight in July 2024 that was mostly successful. Ariane 6 had been the backup launcher for #Euclid for many years.
Originally and for many years, Euclid was slated to launch on a Russian #Soyuz from French Guyana, which changed following the invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent stop of collaboration of #ESA with Roskosmos, the company behind Soyuz.
After this, Ariane 6 became the primary launcher on launch slot 4 or 5, but given that Euclid was almost ready for launch already in 2022, alternatives were looked into, and in the end Euclid successfully launched with a US company on 1 July 2023.
So we've been following #Ariane6's development for a while. All the best for this launch 🤞🤞🏽🤞🏻.
Next #ESA #astronomy mission to be launched with Arianne 6 is the #exoplanet satellite #PLATO, towards the end of 2026.
