All Things Tech

The Space Station passed by our backyard last night for seven minutes. It was like a fast moving star. Do you know it can circle the world for an hour?

A little info about it:

You are welcome Karen, if you are interested, the next launch is on April 9.The Expedition 65 crew will be launched from Kazakhstan.

Quite fascinating. We are certainly getting there...

Even though they are not selling the human version yet but the dogs are available for $75K a piece

That could be an extra 10K 

Our future people are going to have to be brave and go into space: perhaps even to Mars. But they'd have to be able to go on an airplane without fear first. If you're scared of flying, you're going to be terrified of space travel. Plus, there is no gravity in space, as we know.

NASA is doing everything they can to advance the human race into space: and they will get us there. I, myself, don't fear flying, but going into space is a different matter. Although I am sure I'd be able to handle it: even enjoy weightlessness.

As for Mars: there are various issues with going there. One is that gravity is 5 times lighter than on earth. This means if someone was born and raised on Mars, going to earth would crush their bones, due to greater gravity on earth. So a Martian would not be able to land on our planet.

The second problem is the weather conditions on Mars. There are dust storms and the suchlike. Then there's the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. There is the construction that would have to be undertaken. There is a great deal to learn and overcome before anyone can go to Mars.

That's interesting. Have you downloaded the health check?

Exciting times for you.

I recall you were thrilled with the new job at the campus when you started, are you still happy there? 

So it's a genuine and safe app.

Am I the only one that uses a Mac? Just curious.

No. I also just got Windows 10, so I'm not going to update to 11 any time soon lol I always let them work out a lot of the kinks for years.

As everyone knows, I can defeat any spellchecker. 

I use both Karen, my personal computer is an  iMac27, I also got an iPad Pro, gifts from my husband and my son.
