Michael Collins took this picture of the lunar lander which Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin where inside. Behind is Earth. The photo has become known as “Everyone in the world except Michael Collins.”






In our modern world it often gets forgotten just how incredible this moment in history was.

Exactly. This photo is amazing and the story behind it is great.

Hopefully these next 4-20 years give us the same thrills as the start of NASAs missions in the 50s

Artemis and the manned Mars mission are exciting to think about.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
