Bon allez on crache le morceau : la FFL est en réalité un projet secret du ministère des sports lancé en 2017 avec pour mission d'énerver nos athlètes pour qu'ils tapent tout le monde aux JO de Paris
On a trip to Nunavik, my brothers and I stood in awe of these bright northern lights dancing above us, hinting at the majestic interaction between the Sun and the Earth’s magnetosphere.
The French-based student project #Meteorix aims to send a nanosatellite in orbit to observe shooting stars from space, providing much needed information on meteoroid and #SpaceDebris re-entries

Data collected by @OSIRISREx's approach to asteroid #Bennu has revealed water locked inside. The mission team aimed three instruments towards Bennu during the approach and began making these first scientific observations. Learn more: go.nasa.gov/2G9RsFc #AGU18

For the second time in history, a human-made object has reached the space between the stars. Now slightly more than 11 billion miles (18 bil. km) from Earth, @NASAVoyager 2 has now left the Sun's protective bubble & is flying in interstellar space: go.nasa.gov/2GjlBSi #AGU18
Good luck @Astro_DavidS !! We’re all looking forward to following your mission from the ground.
It’s the eve of The Big Day for CSA astronaut @Astro_DavidS ! Tomorrow, he will launch to the @Space_Station for a mission of about 6 and a half months. Stay tuned for more info about how you can watch our LIVE event. #DareToExplore

My first picture on #Mars! My lens cover isn’t off yet, but I just had to show you a first look at my new home. More status updates:

Earth's atmosphere is an incredibly complex and dynamic system. Estimating atmospheric densities at satellite altitudes is necessary for accurate orbital predictions. See the latest review article comparing various empirical models here: doi.org/10.1016/j.paerosci.2…

Happy 20th #Birthday to the International #SpaceStation🛰️👩🚀!!
Humankind's most amibitious outpost has witnessed 113973 sunrises, homed astronauts from across the globe and continues to add to our collective knowledge of the Universe🎇
@esaspaceflight @ISS_Research @Space_Station
Thanks @ConcerningCtzns for this beautiful illustration!
did you know that when we finally scuttle this planet and try to escape to mars, we might burn up in a planet-wide forcefield of our own floating trash?esa.int/Our_Activities/Opera…
.@moribajah on the need for an international #SpaceTrafficManagement framework. “Uncertainty and ignorance are not the same thing.” Knowing where our #SpaceDebris are and classifying them is crucial for safe space activities #IWLR2018
Day 4 of #IWLR2018 is coming to a close. Very informative workshop on the benefits that #LaserRanging can provide to the international community. Looking forward to tomorrow’s special workshop on #SpaceDebris Management and Remediation.

Here’s a little bit more on the SSO-A launch. With coverage like this, maybe we can start having a more open discussion & advance sharing of data critical to ensuring safety of flight & preserving the space environment: leonarddavid.com/cluttering-…
