I would like to offer my most humble thanks to whomever in my house put a box of thin mints in the freezer weeks ago.

in all seriousness, the apollo 13 mission is one of those real life things that sounds completely made up
I've updated my human spaceflight lists at https://planet4589.org/space/astro/web/index.html By my definitions, Peggy Whitson was space traveller no. 426, now on her 4th flight. Shoffner, Al-Qarni and Barnawi are space travellers nos. 645, 646 and 647.
In 5 hours, 4 humans (private mission) are launching to space. Space travel is the bleeding edge of the engineering humans have created as a species. This is why I believe in us. Ad astra. 🚀
SpaceX rocket 'go' to launch four private astronauts on Ax-2, a mission filled with 1sts, today
Axiom Space's Ax-2 is the first private mission commanded by a woman and carries the first Saudi woman into space and first Saudis to visit the International Space Station.

America’s first space station was in trouble after launch. Vibration had caused its micrometeorite & sun shield to get dislodged and hit one of the solar panels. Power was dropping. Temps were rising. Toxic materials were leaking. Not great. So they sewed a new one. By hand & saved the station.

One of the many reasons I love to spot the station (https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/) is because I can look into the sky and imagine the seven people living on that pinpoint of light - and remember that I have accomplished essentially nothing in this world.
Spot The Station
See the International Space Station! As the third brightest object in the sky the space station is easy to see if you know when to look up.

Big ol' welcome to @poppynorthcutt.bsky.social! I came for the stories of Apollo Mission Control. I stayed because she's a badass feminist.
