NOT SURE WHY MY ASKS KEEP BEING LABELED AS ANON BUT QWEEN I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTIONNNNN.
More feministic, but we love that shit gurl! Your stories are so pro girl all the while being pro boy, and i feel like that's really hard to even out with literature when writing as it's easy to show bias. who are your top five greek girlies and why? WOMENNNN!
Why can I say? Women are the blueprint 😍 not all men are bad. They wouldn't be men if they were bad. Hades and Persephone are equilateral because Hades is also just as good. At his kore (wink, wink) he has heart, but he's more hardened; maturely so.
Five is giving me so much room! My lists is in no particular order, because I really can't decide, but fuck these women really are powerful. So powerful and so, so underrated.
Persephone. For her transformation, for choosing herself.
Artemis. For defying what all the BOYS in her life decided to amount her to, and made that possible for other women.
Hera. Dealt the worst card of husbands, yet still resumes her reign as Queen of the Gods with an iron fist.
Athena. Setting the newest standard for women, and further believing in them even at their worse.
Galanthis. For taking the jump for a woman in need, and wearing her punishment with pride.
Galanthis deserves sooooo much more recognition. She owns my heart 🥹
It's so important we educate young girls of these heroes, as in many different ways I feel like they'll forward themselves for exactly that. THEMSELVES. A man isn't necessary in your story of transformation. It's your own guidance, and your own self-faith.

Moonbound: One Year Since Artemis I
On this day last year, the Artemis I rocket and spacecraft lit up the sky and embarked on the revolutionary mission to the Moon and back. The first integrated flight test of the rocket and spacecraft continued for 25.5 days, validating NASA’s deep exploration systems and setting the stage for humanity’s return to the lunar surface.
Tumblr media
On Nov. 16, 2022, the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket met or exceeded all expectations during its debut launch on Artemis I. The twin solid rocket booster motors responsible for producing more than 7 million pounds of thrust at liftoff reached their performance target, helping SLS and the Orion spacecraft reach a speed of about 4,000 mph in just over two minutes before the boosters separated.
Tumblr media
Quite a few payloads caught a ride aboard the Orion spacecraft on the Artemis I mission: In addition to a number of small scientific satellites called CubeSats, a manikin named Commander Moonikin Campos sat in the commander’s seat. A Snoopy doll served as a zero-gravity indicator — something that floats inside the spacecraft to demonstrate microgravity. 
Tumblr media
During the mission, Orion performed two lunar flybys, coming within 80 miles of the lunar surface. At its farthest distance during the mission, Orion traveled nearly 270,000 miles from our home planet, more than 1,000 times farther than where the International Space Station orbits Earth. This surpassed the record for distance traveled by a spacecraft designed to carry humans, previously set during Apollo 13.
Tumblr media
The Orion spacecraft arrived back home to planet Earth on Dec. 11, 2022. During re-entry, Orion endured temperatures about half as hot as the surface of the Sun at about 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Within about 20 minutes, Orion slowed from nearly 25,000 mph to about 20 mph for its parachute-assisted splashdown. 
Tumblr media
Recovery teams successfully retrieved the spacecraft and delivered it back to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center for de-servicing operations, which included removing the payloads (like Snoopy and Commander Moonikin Campos) and analyzing the heat shield.  
Tumblr media
With the Artemis I mission under our belt, we look ahead to Artemis II — our first crewed mission to the Moon in over 50 years. Four astronauts will fly around the Moon inside Orion, practicing piloting the spacecraft and validating the spacecraft’s life support systems. The Artemis II crew includes: NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen.

As we look ahead to Artemis II, we build upon the incredible success of the Artemis I mission and recognize the hard work and achievements of the entire Artemis team. Go Artemis!

I have never been able to shake off how the name Katniss was chosen from a hardy, tuberous plant whose botanical name is Sagittaria.
Sagittaria alluding to Sagittarius, known for being represented by the Archer. Bow and arrow.
Sagittarius is also sometimes alluded to Orion, the Hunter, famous for his friendship with Goddess Artemis.
Artemis, protector of young girls. Her favorite place to dwell in forests. Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt, who favored archery.
Suzanne Collins, the woman that you are, thank you.

Meet the Four Artemis Astronauts Who Will Fly Around the Moon
Tumblr media
Today, we revealed the four astronauts who will fly around the Moon during the Artemis II mission, scheduled to launch in 2024. Get to know them:
Christina Koch
Tumblr media
Meet the first member of our Artemis II crew: mission specialist Christina Koch. Koch visited the International Space Station in 2019, where she participated in the first all-woman spacewalk with Jessica Meir. She began her NASA career as an electrical engineer at Goddard Space Flight Center.
Jeremy Hansen
Tumblr media
Representing the Canadian Space Agency is Jeremy Hansen from London, Ontario. Col. Hansen was a fighter pilot with Canadian Armed Forces before joining the Canadian Space Agency, and currently works with NASA on astronaut training and mission operations. This will be Col. Hansen’s first mission in space.
Victor Glover
Tumblr media
Victor Glover is our Artemis II pilot. Glover is part of our 2013 class of NASA astronauts and was the pilot for NASA’s SpaceX Crew-1 mission. He’s logged 3,000 flight hours in more than 40 different aircraft.
Reid Wiseman
Tumblr media
...and rounding out our Artemis II crew: mission commander Reid Wiseman. Wiseman lived and worked aboard the International Space Station as a flight engineer in 2014. He also commanded the undersea research mission NEEMO21, and most recently served as Chief of the NASA astronauts.
