You'd be surprised how much shit uses Windows as a platform or Windows tools...we have surface tablets for communicating with Houston in the ISS that function 50% of the time, flight apps written SPECIFICALLY for windows....despite linux being 90% of a missions actual system backend...etc etc

less than 3 minutes from surpassing Apollo 13's record for farthest travel from Earth

Did you come from Facebook? That sounds like a statement you'd find on there.

I only recently learned just how far away the moon is. It's crazy to think it looks as big as it does to us.

It'll blow your mind once you find out how far away the sun is and how big it looks

It'll blow his mind to realize that both the moon and sun are the perfect distance away to look roughly the same size despite the sun swallowing the moon millions of times over.

Did you know the moon is moving about 1.5 inches away every year? In a few hundred million years we won't get any more total eclipses.

See them while you can.

I choose to have faith that future species will develop the technology to move the moon back into place, possibly by hollowing out a portion of it and installing gigantic rocket thrusters.

We can't even agree that climate change is real man.

if memory serves there was a whole plotline in the (no longer canon) Star Wars books, it's been probably 20 years since I read them but I think Corellia or maybe even the whole system had planetary engines essentially and was artificially piloted together or something

It was also a thing in the Ringworld series, with the Puppeteers.
