🚀🌌 Voyager 1 has left the Sun's protective bubble—the heliosphere—and is now traveling through interstellar space, over 25 billion km from Earth. Launched in 1977, it's the most distant human-made object ever. Yet even after nearly 50 years, it isn't close to another star. At its current speed, reaching the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, would take tens of thousands of years. A humbling reminder of both human curiosity and the unimaginable scale of the universe. ✨

We don’t have shoulder pads and helmets in our contact sports either 😉👊🏻
They do flyovers a little more dangerously in South Africa

Don’t fall for what you see on the internet! Here is a clear video of the Arlink Pilots, displaying their skill at DHL Cape Town Stadium, before the Springboks and All Blacks match. Haters around the World, are trying to ruin our cultural practices! This was pure gold.

This is how the Solar System travels around the center of the galaxy, taking 225 million to 250 million years for a full orbit.

Every second, the Sun ejects 1.5 million tons of material into space at hundreds of miles per second, but Earth's magnetic field protects it from the solar wind. [🎞️ NASA]

This is what happens when a Black taxi driver causes an accident and the White driver of the other vehicle requests insurance details! Violence erupts and it becomes a free for all assault on the White man with a metal tyre lever to the head! Normal crime?
