Those are my favorite as well. Something about seeing the deep field images and knowing every dot is a whole other massive galaxy, full of planets and possibilities just excites my imagination.

Thank you! Wouldn’t happen without you guys
For real! Pluto was always this little blob growing up, then it had a fuzzy heart, and then to be able to see it with as much resolution as we did is amazing. It’s a curious and beautiful little dwarf
Yeah that one really makes you think about how insignificant things here are in the grand scheme of things.
This is mostly going to be northern hemisphere, but it should be the same from anywhere in the northern hemisphere for the most part
I saw that congrats! I got tied up with work and haven’t been able to post as much here, but more people are posting so it’s awesome.
I love Carl Sagan, he died when I was 10, but man did he have a huge impact on me.
Really? I wasn’t aware of that, super cool.
That’s what I do, but they were mentioning that they wanted to browse all, but the memes were ruining it for them. I’m usually on all so I can keep an eye out for new communities to join
Must’ve been to my teen son.
Just block the meme communities and it makes this place a much more engaging site. There’s obviously not the same level as reddit yet, but with time it will get there.
I think this is a terribly disheartening quote. It’s very true. But it’s sad that there’s basically zero hope for us as a people to come together to do great things that benefit our species and the others trapped on this planet with us. We’re doomed to a future of selfishness and violence
I keep bouncing between this one and Jerboa. I like Liftoff a little more, as it’s easier to handle multiple instances and accounts, but I wish that it had mod tools so I wouldn’t have to go my communities in the browser or PC to do anything mod related.
When I was in primary school I used to dream of being able to visit Europa someday. The tidal forces from Jupiter keeping the sub-surface ocean warm enough to potentially harbor life was always fascinating to me.
I can’t wait for the Clipper Mission, but I hope that we get a chance to send a submersible to explore the oceans in my lifetime.
Wow, that’s so stupid. Wonder which politician that regulation benefited.
Glad to have you. I used to follow a bunch on Reddit too, waiting to find a good earthporn one here still
