l'involuzione scientifica 😂

Se non erro è un fake, ma l'ho già sentita piu o meno cosi' già altre volte in vari documentari anche con piloti nasa (credo il suo compagno di viaggio) 🙂 e se ci pensate però, è la spiegazione quasi piu' sensata dopo il" non ci sono piu' i fondi" per andare sulla luna, perchè per marte, guerre etc, li hanno abbondantemente...

Stesso discorso vale per i russi, abbandonato da subito anche loro qualsiasi progetto per la luna.

A maggio 2022, AstroSamantha è decollata per una nuova missione spaziale, lasciando sulla Terra per oltre cinque mesi marito e figliolanza; per questo motivo è stata duramente attaccata dalle donne. In un clima patriarcale come quello italiano, noi donne siamo così impregnate di maschilismo da essere diventate le peggiori nemiche di noi stesse. Inoltre, si può dedurre che il livello di capacità di comprensione e approfondimento dell’italiano medio è sempre più basso, forse legato all’impoverimento del suo vocabolario, forse anche all’assorbimento acritico degli stereotipi. Sono qui per stimolare lo spirito di ricerca delle persone. Uomini o donne che siano. Auguratemi buona fortuna! #StefiPastoriGloss #lamoreindossacollantdicarne #stereotipi alla base della #violenzasulledonne #samanthacristoforetti #cristoforetti In foto : una costruzione della #futuraingegnera Sofia https://www.instagram.com/p/CmDxvVdNKpt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Prev -> #I mean I’m pretty sure there’s at least one Trekkie up there with a uniform so

Ask and ye shall receive. (Samantha Cristoforetti of ESA)

maybe the problem w remakes of old kitschy sci-fi shows is that sci-fi means something fundamentally different than it did when these stories were made, it's almost a different genre now bc the level of fantasy dramatically goes down the more scientists do the shit we were dreaming about. If u wana do justice by trek u need to remember that it was almost entirely about magic. Automatic doors were magic. Food recycling was magic. people hanging out in space for long periods of time was magic and thats why they dressed like gay cyber wizards and that's why if u don't let them dress like gay cyber wizards ur missing the point

Towel Day

Towel  Day on May 25 is an annual holiday created to celebrate author Douglas  Adams by his fans. Adams wrote the classic sci-fi novel, “The  Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.” This day was organized in memory of  him after he suffered a sudden heart attack at the age of 49. His fans  wanted to find a way to commemorate his life’s work, and after having  one towel day, its success made it a yearly event. On this day, fans  carry towels around everywhere they go. Today, we are celebrating this  holiday with a towel wrapped around our necks because, we too, love  Douglas Adams!

History of Towel Day

Towel  Day is celebrated on May 25, two weeks after the date of Adams’s death  in 2001 — May 11. The day has, over time, received the status of being a  kind of ‘‘geek holiday’’ due to its connection with the popular series.

Why  a towel? It’s said the towel holds much importance in “The Hitchhiker’s  Guide to the Galaxy.” Adams wrote about towels as being the most  helpful item for an interstellar traveler. In chapter three of the book,  he writes, “A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing  an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value  — you can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold  moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble sanded  beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep  under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of  Kakrafoon…” and so the uses go on.

Adams’s strongest advice was  “Never go anywhere without your towel.” This day has been celebrated now  for 19 years and is a great occasion for science fiction fans all over  the world to come together and rejoice … with their towels. It is said  that Adams was a humorous writer and witty character and that this day  reflects his lovable silliness.
