Wonderful! Can wait to get to see new images =D
I love how space agencies give unique names to their satellites and spaceships!
looove nasa all the way 😉
@ordi75 Do you suppose they each have their own “Department Of Acronyms Netting Appropriate Media Exposure” (DO A NAME)?
حقا شء رائع
@deedubya286 I didn’t mean it in an ironic way…
Oh well, I should add a smiley to my sentence next time I write something.
@ordi75 I didn’t think you were being ironic and I wasn’t either — well, maybe a little.
I like the names too, i just sometimes have a bit of a laugh thinking about how hard they must work to come up with a cool sounding acronym.
@deedubya286 True that, there must be someone working in NASA whose daily job is to come up with them, haha.
obama shuts down nasa and now these clowns waste est. thousands of tax payer dollars on busting some 74 yr old woman, holy shit…
NASA intend to sell to other countries , informations which they have not the technology or even the simplest organization to obtain, because of the political-economical mess those same countries are the final responsibles.Nevertheless it is becoming each time more suspicious that the infiltration of corruption is a safe way to put those countries under scientific-monetary submission.
@raperitoenamorado1 Nice. But I prefer the Baikonur team,cause they developed all the stuff by themselves, not importing nazi scientists.
