Only tangentially related but I&#x27;d like to share it as space nerds (like me) may love it:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mainenginecutoff.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2019&#x2F;05&#x2F;downlink" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mainenginecutoff.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2019&#x2F;05&#x2F;downlink</a><p>This is a small mac app getting real time satellite images, and using it as your wallpaper. One of the source is Jaxa&#x27;s Himawari-8, hence the link.<p>Also, the podcasts from Anthony Colangelo (same page) are pretty good to keep up with the space industry

The engineers (and press?) look so excited in that photo. Wonderful to have something positive on a national level to root for. While I&#x27;m happy for the USA&#x27;s women&#x27;s soccer victory, I suppose I prefer to root for the technical triumphs more. ;-)

I&#x27;m glad this mission seems to go way better than the previous one.

Big achievement. Mind bogglingly complex mission.

I wonder what it would take to attach a booster to an asteroid and bring it in earth orbit

Amazing! Looking forward to what they will find out once they start drilling.
