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. 🌍✨

There is no Planet B.

✧ 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.
