Be thankful it's not geese. I'll take the stupid turkeys any day over those asshole geese.

Geese are absolute assholes. When I lived in Germany we lived in the part of Bayern where they all go to breed. Fuckers were everywhere.

And they will attack your ass with sheer ferocity if you come any close to them. Locals would laugh at the dumb ass Americans trying to be cute with them.

The only animals that are bigger assholes than cats are fucking geese. They cross the road with zero fucks given.

I mean, arguably swans are the worst. Wild turkeys have attacked me the most times, though, occasionally from trees.

In my head I played 'Flight of the Valkyries' as turkeys dove from the treetops to attack you. It was fun, thanks for the random image.

Man, some of the turkeys I've seen here wouldn't even fit in a tree. They'd almost fit in as a Castlevania monster.

Back on topic...Inspiration coming home today. Some neat shots from the live stream, both of Earth and the inside of the vehicle.

Had a news alert on my phone this morning that started with "William Shatner, who played Captain Kirk in..." and thought "oh man, I really thought he'd be the last one to go," but it turns out he's going up to space.

I mean, the ride itself might do it. He's no spring chicken.

**TsingTao** · 2021-10-04 12:25

Yeah, can't expect the launch forces will do anything good for a 90 year old. There's a special place in Gre'Thor for Bezos if he kills Captain Kirk.

It's done, he survived.

I liked what he said afterward. It was very Shatner like heh.

**Meresgi** · 2021-10-13 22:09

Blue Origin getting celebrities and rich people into "Not actually space" is pretty meh

I liked what Shatner had to say though

On Friday (Oct. 15), skywatchers in Japan observed a flash in the atmosphere of the planet's northern hemisphere likely caused by an asteroid slamming into Jupiter, just over a month after a skywatcher in Brazil made a similar observation.

"The flash felt like it was shining for a very long time to me," Twitter user @yotsuyubi21, who photographed the flash with a Celestron C6 telescope, told Space.com.

They confirmed the observation with a team led by Ko Arimatsu, an astronomer at Japan's Kyoto University who takes part in the Organized Autotelescopes for Serendipitous Event Survey (OASES) project.

According to a tweet posted by the project, that observation included two different types of light, visible and infrared, giving Jupiter an eerie pink glow.

Well that took a turn...

Starship completed its first ever 6 engine static fire test today. We're getting close. Here's hoping the crow population can bugger off and let em launch the full booster soon.

The seven crewpersons on the International Space Station (ISS) had to take shelter today from a threatening debris field. The astronauts and cosmonauts took refuge in the Dragon and Soyuz spacecraft currently docked to the ISS. If the situation had become disastrous, this precaution would have allowed the crew to abandon the station and return to Earth.

After passing through the debris apparently without incident, the crew returned to the station. However, the ISS is passing through or near the debris every hour so the crew are keeping the hatches between sections sealed in case the station is holed. Planned activities with the station's robot arm have been cancelled and the crew’s busy work schedule is being amended. At present it is unclear how long the ISS will be under threat.

Does ULA have reusable rockets in the pipeline ?
