I haven't been very active here lately as everything is becoming more shitty... If you're still interested in the stuff that I was posting, find me in the fediverse: chaos.social/@ripper I have no plans for going to bluesky or threads, so no need to ask for that. :)

It's gone to 11 folks! The number of toilets in space has GONE TO 11! 4 on the ISS, 2 on the Tiangong space station, 1 on Shenzhou 14, 1 on Soyuz MS-22, 1 on Soyuz MS-23, 1 on Crew Dragon Freedom, & 1 on Crew Dragon Endeavour. This is a new space record.

There are 10 toilets in space right now. Soon to be 11. 👀 (Yes, that would be a new record.)

Neben dem Screenshot ist eine runde, helle Fläche im Bild, darauf steht "CAD, CAM und CNC-Workshop Konstruieren mit FreeCAD und Fräsen auf der CNC-Fräse im Metalab".

Asteroid Sar2667, about a meter in diameter, was expected to fall near the French city of Le Havre at 02:59h UTC. I drove to a photogenic spot close to home in the south of the Netherlands to capture it, just as the sky cleared. #asteroid #meteor @IMOmeteors @apod

Splashdown. After traveling 1.4 million miles through space, orbiting the Moon, and collecting data that will prepare us to send astronauts on future #Artemis missions, the @NASA_Orion spacecraft is home.

😮 Flashback to flight day 13 of #Artemis I, check out this time-lapse of the Moon transiting across Earth, captured by @NASA_Orion! 👍

50 years ago, the Apollo 17 astronauts captured an iconic Earth view of the “Blue Marble” as they set sights on the Moon. Today with #Artemis, this time-lapse footage showcases the Earth-Moon transit as @NASA_Orion captured our home planet and the Moon on flight day 13.

😮 They're in! The hi-res pics from the point of @NASA_Orion's maximum distance from Earth during the #Artemis I mission, taken yesterday by a camera on one of #OrionESM European Service Module's solar arrays 👉 flic.kr/ps/sv14h #ForwardToTheMoon

Flight day 13: Orion reached its maximum distance from Earth during the #Artemis I mission when it was 268,563 miles away from our home planet. Orion has now traveled farther than any other spacecraft built for humans.

Not every day you get to see how the Moon eclipses Earth from a unique vantage point in space, live. 📸 Space selfie from one of the European Service Module's solar wings, more than 430 000 km from our planet, right now. It will last approximately 90 minutes.

At the @MetalabVie hackathon last weekend I finished the racks for my @SortimoGmbH T-Boxx G screw boxes. Of course they are massively over engineered with the use of the CNC machine and original rails. Thanks to inspiration from @donttrythis I put them on wheels for easier use.
Two roughly square shapes racks made from thick dark plywood on castor wheels are standing in front of a wall. In one of them there are five identical boxes. The other one houses a sixth box at the top, revealing blue plastic rails on the side walls. A transparent plastic container is also in this rack.

The picture shows a small flatbed CNC machine made from Aluminium profiles. In the working area a piece of dark plywood is mounted.

Multiple sheets of plywood are placed on top of each other on a workbench. One of them is thin and nicely textured. The oder ones are thick and dark. Also, they have holes and slots machined into them. Beside the plywood a cordless drill and a lot of tools is lying around.

A dark, thick piece of plywood is lying on a workbench with some paper underneath it. Five blue plastic rails are mounted on top of it. More rails are lying next to it. Also there is a cordless drill. Screws and a lot of other stuff is lying on the workbench too.
