Re: Spaceships and astronomy
Fascinating, I'm not sure what bit was most amazing to me but it blows my tiny mind the preciseness and calculated risks involved in every tiny step at what was 16000 miles an hour?
When the rocket landed back what looked like perfectly onto the drone ship landing spot my jaw dropped.

These guys have the best view, start 3 minutes in unless you want the real "where the F@$! is it" experience

The visualisations of a black hole in the movie Interstellar were developed on supercomputers, by people like Kip Thorne. ISTR that there were something like 15 or 16 research papers published as a direct result.

They got here as soon as they could.
Gravitational waves from a merger of two black holes took 7 billion years to reach earth!

I do sometimes wonder if the cosmologists have delved so deeply into the math and instrumentation, that what they purport to know is mere fantasy. I don't think it is, but it does seem preposterous to be able to identify and measure such a phenomena.

If they arrived much sooner, no Earth to reach !!
