TOTAL SUCCESS!!! LUR-1, THE FIRST 100% BASQUE SATELLITE, ESTABLISHED CONNECTION WITH EARTH!
After the rocket launch that took place yesterday, Basque scientists have been able to establish connection with the Basque micro-satellite today, proving it's a successful mission!
Tumblr media
Lur-1 - Earth-1 in English - was 100% designed and built in Euskadi. It weighs only 57kg and is now orbiting Earth at 7km/s. It's designed to have a working life of 5 years, and during this time it will send high definition pictures of the Basque coast and geography to follow their evolution. It's also equipped with a Basque invention called MICE, a system that allows the satellite to be fully desintegrated during re-entry to avoid space rubbish and be more sustainable. MICE has been adopted by the European Space Agency for all of their rockets and satellites.
Tumblr media
Euskadi is one of the economies with the most healthy and growing space industry, which represents 5,4% of its GDP.
So you can compare, Spain's space industry is just 0,1% GDP.

Why is that planet so scary? Basically every titan is dead, and i doubt one little baby could hurt you.
Tumblr media
The Cartologist: Nothing can hurt me but a Titan! I don't want to be hurt at all!!
Tumblr media
The Cartographer: Can you all just stop bringing this up? Just because you're desensitized by everything in existence being able to hurt and kill you doesn't mean you should keep shoving it in a child's face. It's obviously upsetting him, why do you have to keep picking at it after the answer has been made clear? It's incredibly disrespectful and rude.

Fitzroy had also enjoyed the dubious honour of being present at the execution of Anne Boleyn, along with his friend Henry Howard. It is tempting to see this as a deliberate taunt by Henry, showing his condemned wife the fine son that she had failed to give him. But the King's boast would soon backfire. Less than two months later, Fitzroy followed Anne to the grave. His final illness seems to have been sudden. It was first reported on 8 July, and he died on the twenty-third of that month at St James's Palace. The cause of his death was cited as 'consumption', and it seems likely that he had been suffering from tuberculosis. There were also rumours of foul play. In an echo of his royal master's openly expressed fears, Wriothesley declared that the King's 'base son' had been 'privily poisoned by the means of Queen Anne and her brother Lord Rochford, for he pined inwardly in his body long before he died'. But such rumours often attended sudden deaths, and there is no evidence to support this one.

i should have known today was going to be f*cked up when i checked the Shinee tag before going to bed early this morning and saw that the unofficial sign merch for the fans going to the Japan tour with all five members had been pulled and replaced with official merch from SM that only had the three that are currently active. that should have been a sign from God that some f*ckass sh*t was about to go down the vibes were off
#shinee#minho#choi minho#taemin#lee taemin#key#kibum#kim kibum#i said i wasn't going to talk about this but ykw i have to talk about it. i am weirdly detached and i am grateful that i ate before i#saw that sh*t but i'm going to talk about it bc the more i think about it the more pissed i am#look. i'm at most maybe two or three shades darker than Minho. i have heard these kinds of comments from 'friends' in the past#and i'm not going to pretend that it didn't hurt bc it did. it did and you can see that it hurt him too bc he had to laugh it off and Kibum#and Taemin are two grown ass f*cking men who should know better. and as much as i love them i am thankful that their asses#are getting lit up on social media and people are talking about this bc it's 2023. you don't f*cking say that to your friend#this is the same sh*t they did to Haechan. we literally just had a reporter criticize Taecyeon's skintone at one of the press conferences#for Heartbeat a couple months ago asking if he didn't think he was too dark for the role there is still the trend of lightening#idols' photos in official merch and ones taken at fan events WE ARE STILL DOING THIS KIND OF SH*T#whatever internalized issues with colorism Taemin and Kibum have they need to sort it out. go see a therapist idk something#but don't take that sh*t out on someone so close to you you consider them family. don't do that#Jjong is looking down from his satellite disc trying to beat their asses and God is holding him back again by his collar#but just barely. the satellite beams are so the rest of the fandom can get signal to do their work and call out the bullsh*t#going to spend the rest of the day reblogging Minho sets listening to Heartbreak in between Mirotic streaming#and trying to watch the rest of SOTB. that's all i can do atp

Even if W.I.T. managed to down the satellite that offered Internet connections to the whole world, it ultimately comes down to the person who set the events into motion and his ultimate aim.
The Tinker sought to bring out the Inspector so as to challenge him to a final showdown. Turning the human race mad was just a happy coincidence as far as the Tinker was concerned.

2, 4, 6 and 12 for the enstars ask game 🩵
ask game
2. who did you first produce?
Kaoru n Chiaki because I started Eng during AtoZ and really thought they were sillies. And they are but oh my god *stares at Crazy:B*
4. what got you into enstars?
Any complaints about my hyperfixation can be redirected to @chadsuke because they started posting about it when eng dropped and I got curious and it's all been downhill since then.
6. how long have you been in the enstars fandom?
I started playing a little over a year ago I believeeeee or a little less but I only really got into it around Tempest release in Eng, and it kinda took over after Night Club Eng, which I remember was over Labor Day weekend because I had to do some of the tour days while at camp LMAO
12. what was your favorite event?
That's been released in Eng? Probably A Dark Night's Passing (the Double Face introduction). It was my first event 5* outside a tour and I just really love =EYE= as a song. Quality stuff. Night Club is a close second. I'm super excited for Ariadne next though and Obbligato. Do not get me started on that one.
