Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: The #JWST has found the origin of the oldest Fast Radio Burst (FRB) ever detected, traced to an ancient metal-poor galaxy. The signal traveled 10.6 - 11 billion years, nearly 80% of the age of the #universe. #space #astronomy

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Well-known to #UFO & #scifi communities, Zeta Reticuli is a binary system of 2 sun-like yellow dwarf stars, both visible with the naked eye. They are extremely far apart, 100x the distance between the Sun & Pluto. #space #astronomy

Some quotes hit harder today. We have a long way to go, but I believe the #solarpunk, #postscarcity, #optimistic #futurist reality of #StarTrek is possible. I believe we have the power to make it happen, together. Rest in peace, captain. #StarTrek #picard #sirpatrick #rippatrickstewart

Babe wake up, new dwarf planet just dropped! Dicovered by the Rubin Observatory, "2026 ED138" (for now), is about half the size of Pluto at 1000km (600mi) wide, and is 6AU further from the Sun. It joins the other 5 known dwarf planets. #space #astronomy

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Uranus smells like farts. Not even joking. The upper atmosphere of Uranus contains hydrogen, helium, methane, and importantly, hydrogen sulfide, which would give it a distinct rotten egg smell. Credit @spaceinnutshell #scifi #astronomy

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Neptune has the strongest winds in the solar system, reaching speeds up to 2,100 km/h (1,200+ mph), which break the sound barrier. #scifi #astronomy

Sneak peak of the Atlas Rush How-to-Play video! Full video coming soon! Was it necessary to #render this in #Blender when we have physical prototypes? No. Was it unnecessarily complicated? Yes. Was it fun? Also yes. #gamedev #indiegames #boardgames #indiedev #3dart #scifigames

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Jupiter's moon Callisto, in addition to being the most cratered object in the solar system, is also the only Galilean moon outside Jupiter's deadly radiation belt, making it a prime target for colonization. #scifi #astronomy

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Ever feel like the days drag on but the years go by quickly? You might be on Mercury. There, the time from sunrise to sunrise takes ~176 Earth days, but a year is half that, ~88 Earth days. Credit Digital Astronaut #space #astronomy

Dystopian fiction hits different when real life often feels like a Black Mirror episode. For that reason, in Atlas Rush, we wrote Terra (Earth) as a post-scarcity society, at the dawn of the warp age. We love optimistic #futurism. We wanted to share it in our little sci-fi #space #boardgame. #scifi

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Where did you come from, Phobos? Astronomers debate whether Mars' larger moon is a captured asteroid, or a remnant of a Martian impact. JAXA just launched its MMX mission today to find out. Img credit #JAXA #space #astronomy

We listened. The one thing that stops most people from buying from small #indie #game stores is the shipping cost. Today, we're happy to announce FREE shipping on all US orders for the #Dragonlings #cardgame and #plushie! https://shop.bupgames.com/products/dragonlings-card-game #boardgames

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Just in time for spooky season, astronomers have found the first green star, and it's a zombie. WD J1330+6435 is a dead white dwarf, still consuming the debris of its planetary system. Img credit Mark Garlick #space #astronomy

Posting cool #space #facts until the Atlas Rush #Kickstarter: Ever feel like you're spinning in circles? Well, you are, just not as fast as Haumea. This dwarf planet spins so fast at 1,863km/h (1,158mph) that its rotation deformed its surface into an egg shape. #space #astronomy
