Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1

The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.

So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.

So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.

Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.

And the probe is working again.

From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

all day today I was doing an assignment on astronomical exercises where I had to make a star map of any object. I made a map of the open star cluster Beehive M44

I'm very tired, but I like the result and I want to print this and hang it above my desk

#woah!! #space

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

you guys all know i'm in the panopticon too right? just because i'm in the tower doesn't mean i should be treated any differently. all of you can see me just as well as i can see you. my position is worse actually because you're all looking at me at once while i can only point the spotlight at one of you at a time. have some compassion. we're all in the panopticon here. we're all in the same boat

#this is a joke but also this is literally the plot I came up with for iterator!theta #oc tag

biologist here! why are plants green? well they suck up air from the sky (blue) and mix it with the sunlight (yellow) i fucking love science.

Got bored so I want to hit my already-existing OCs with the Iterator Beam. Figuring out their names is very tricky, though

#figuring out their lore? easy #names? I’m drawing a blank #personal

anyways i love gourmand. i love them. honestly comfort character/campaign i play them when i DONT want a challenge they're so <3

#I love gourmand. centipedes are trivial deal with because of crafting #you can basically make infinite spore puffs #also rolling is really easy. wheeeeee #rain world
