ESA moves two missions to Falcon 9
ESA now plans to launch a space telescope and an asteroid mission on Falcon 9 rockets because of its loss of access to Soyuz vehicles and Ariane 6 delays.

Replacing Soyuz and Ariane 6 launches. Ariane 6 is the new rocket the ESA has been working on to 'compete' with the Falcon 9. Lol. It got pushed back to 4th quarter 2023, which I suspect is being optimistic.

Its odd, but I never thought about that. Our bodies really arent designed to function without gravity. Not surprising of course.

I wonder what the scale is like on that pic. Like how far is it from the knuckle to the end of the finger?

Proxima Centauri, our closest relative star, is 4.3 light years away. The sun is 8 light minutes away.
It's big.
