Mar 24 2022: 2nd Moon lander · OneWeb + SpaceX · ISS · exoplanets milestone · ORCs · space lettuce

Stay up to date with space and astronomy and what is going on in the universe! Blue Origin is definitely going to be bidding again, and NASA is (to my knowledge) not allowed to consider the previous bid or the associated complaints and lawsuit when evaluating this proposal.

Oh and just FYI for those who got excited about NS-20, the launch was postponed a few days and Pete Davidson is no longer going to be onboard!

Great video, thanks for the updates. I'm 52, grew up on Star Trek, TNG and Star Wars and didn't know until we actually discovered another planet outside of our system that we had never discovered another planet before. It was just something I had assumed we had knew of. And to think now, there's 5000 that we know of. That is just so fantastic. Thanks again.

You need to join the cast of How the universe works. You would be a great additional to the show.

I may have to pull out of the Mars pool. Not going all that way without a full salad bar.
I was really glad to see the Cosmonauts 🖕🏽 Putin. And thanks to Roscosmos by confirming that fact by denying it. 💙💛

Do you know how loooonnnggg it's going to take to explore all those planets? We still haven't traveled outside our solar system. Could someone please invent an Improbabilty Drive already?
