Close-ups of Pluto, the discovery of a new Earth-like ‘exo-planet. And now, an internet hit on an effervescent tablet into the space. NASA knows to draw attention in the past weeks. Therefore, there is hardly a day goes by that published by the American space agency, not a press release.
On July 16th we received through the New Horizons mission of NASA for the first time, a bit of an idea of how dwarf planet Pluto and two of its moons look like: upper plains towering icebergs of up to 3,500 meters high from
.
A week later it was announced that 1,400 light-years from here, astronomers had detected a planet that resembled the earth’s distance from a sun-like star is similar to the distance Earth-Sun. Planet, “Kepler 452b ‘was discovered by the NASA satellite Kepler.
Yesterday a video was put online about something much less spectacular: an effervescent tablet. But the images speak to the imagination. And that beat underneath makes the experience extra entertaining. Astronaut Terry Virts from the International Space Station allowed to dissolve an effervescent tablet into a floating water globe. What happens then is almost art. This is also thanks to the high resolution camera, which NASA uses to make space projects more than ever on screen. This also should help advance knowledge.
