"Here, the star chose to stay"

The star will hear
the passion resounding through the silent cosmos.
The star will answer
the surge of curiosity from this blue planet.

#OnThisDay in 1961, the Vostok 1 mission launched with cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin aboard. The 108 minute mission was the first crewed spaceflight in history, and made Gagarin an international celebrity. #InternationalDayOfHumanSpaceFlight

Welcome back to Earth, Artemis II.

The mission marked a record-breaking orbit of the Moon, but it is also a reminder that as humanity's presence in space expands, so does the environmental impact.

Happy #InternationalDayofHumanSpaceFlight, celebrating the first human flight into space #OnThisDay in 1961.

Did you know there is space #archaeology? Studying life on the International Space Station shows how a 'space culture' emerged.

Ohne sie wäre es deutlich schwieriger, von einer Zukunft im All zu träumen - oder dafür zu recherchieren.

Wir wünschen euch allen, aber besonders denjenigen, die auf irgendeine Weise daran beteiligt sind, einen wunderschönen #InternationalDayOfHumanSpaceFlight. (sb)

Larks they were in lift-off, swallows in soaring.
Soaring metal is flight and nest together…

A Home in Space Edwin Morgan Laid-back in orbit, they found their minds. They found their minds were very clean and clear. Clear crystals in swarms outside were their fireflies and larks. Larks they were in lift-off, swallows in soaring. Soaring metal is flight and nest together. Together they must hatch. Hatches let the welders out. Out went the whitesuit riggers with frames as light as air. Air was millions under lock and key. Key-ins had computers wild on Saturday nights. Nights, days, months, years they lived in space. Space shone black in their eyes. Eyes, hands, food-tubes, screens, lenses, keys were one. One night – or day – or month – or year – they all – all gathered at the panel and agreed – agreed to cut communication with – with the earth base – and it must be said they were – were cool and clear as they dismantled the station and – and gave their capsule such power that – that they launched themselves outwards – outwards in an impeccable trajectory, that band – that band of tranquil defiers, not to plant any – any home with roots but to keep a – a voyaging generation voyaging, and as far – as far as there would ever be a home in space – space that needs time and time that needs life.

And, as a bird, flee owre the wa’ o’ the world

On #InternationalDayOfHumanSpaceFlight, we mark how far exploration has come; from Gagarin’s first spaceflight to exciting missions like #ArtemisII.
Which makes us ask: what can support life?
