Astronauts have explained the profound effect that they've experience from viewing the Earth from space. Now imagine this. The sense of camaraderie, adventure and joy. This is magnificent. #DareToExplore @Astro_DavidS @csa_asc @DontLetGoCanada @SpaceMattersCA

Our friends, on the way here. The essence of space flight, in a timelapse showing the #SoyuzMS11 launch. I still can’t comprehend that there are humans riding on the top of this lone white streak into the great black open. Hi-Res:

It's been awhile since I've been in the journalism game, but as @marinakoren points out quite clearly — saying "off the record" isn't some 21st century magic spell. It doesn't give you automatic immunity. There Musk be an agreement.

"My first thought was why would 🇨🇦 be looking for astronauts when we didn't even have a rocket to launch them in space?" Garneau pondered this 40 years ago as he saw an ad in the Ottawa Citizen. (I'd love to manage ads for Canada's next astronaut campaign)

issue 02 of orbit went out this afternoon and I couldn't be happier with the new template/format building this as I go has been incredibly rewarding also realizing how underreported Canada's space industry is—there's almost too much news to jam into a weekly roundup
