Rapid Unscheduled Dissassembly (RUD). It's been a euphamism in the rocket industy for a few decades now.

When you see Timelapse images of the night sky and it gives the impression the stars move relative to the earth. Then some fucker stabilises a camera relative to the stars…

Head mash!

 

Remarkable detail within the night sky on that video. 

Getting into a dark sky area and stargazing is one of life's wonders.

The place we stay at in Crete is on the north coast just a mile or two away from the mountains. Nights driving into the mountains show numbers of stars I’ve rarely seen here.

I was up in those mountains at night a fortnight ago, crystal clear sky, no light pollution.

Where do the stars go during the day time?

To work, unless they're on nights.

Then right 

Consider that the earth is rotating on its axis at 1000 mph 

And around the sun at 67000 mph

 The solsr system is orbiting the milky way at 500,000 mph

The milky way itself is moving along at 90,000 mph 

Which itself is part of a galaxy cluster moving at 1,350,000 miles an hour 

Something like that

The James Webb Telescope has detected Dimethyl sulfide in the atmosphere of planet K2-18B - which is only produced on Earth as a bi-product of living organisms.

120 light years away and it can detect molecules in its atmosphere 

Sometimes I wonder if they just make it up 

Imagine sending a Uber rocket with ai bots all the way there to get a report back in 3000 years that says "no, turns out it was just some dust on the telescopes lens"

Mad innit.

The phrase "the larger Hycean worlds" sounds like something out of a sci-fi novel

Exciting

Because their version of Eve didn't eat their version of an apple in their version of the Garden of Eden.
