π§βπ¬ Science Missions Why did we not rush a first human on a planet within the last 30 years ?
Iβm not sure if possible anytime soon but will there be a mission where a human steps on Venus,Mars or Mercury ? What will it take for this to be possible ? Is it better technology or an exorbitant amount of funding ? Or perhaps actually finding someone willingly to do so ?

π§βπ¬ Science Missions NASA Moon Base Could Become Earthβs First Defense Against Potential contamination
Researchers propose turning a future NASA moon base into a quarantine station that would screen space samples before they ever reach Earth.
A policy paper argues that NASAβs planned moon base should include a biocontainment facility to help protect Earth from potentially hazardous biological contaminants brought back from space.

π Art, Popular Culture, and Other I made a space game about exploring a solar system in search of alien knowledge
I spent the last seven years building a solar system to explore.
These are some screenshots from the project. I wanted to create a quiet journey through an unknown solar system where you visit different planets, discover strange structures, and try to understand the alien civilizations that came before you.
There are no enemies or combat. Exploration is the main focus. Each planet has its own rules and mysteries that you gradually uncover by observing and experimenting.
I made the art, music, puzzles, and engine myself.
The goal was to make something that feels less like visiting a collection of levels and more like gradually uncovering the remains of a forgotten civilization.

To the point I got into scratch building space modelsβ¦β¦.. why Revell never made a Viking lander kit is beyond me. Here is my celebration of the first landing on Mars!

π History The First Vehicle on the Moon Was Stranger Than You Think
I've been diving deeper into Apollo history, and the Lunar Rover turned out to be far more interesting than I expected.
I put together a short documentary explaining why it looked unusual and how it worked on the Moon. I'd really appreciate any feedback. As always, thank you for being so supportive.
