Yet another person finding a new home here! I’m into space diplomacy, Borges, and resisting the void of modern architecture.

If I followed you it’s because you seem interesting and we have some things in common :) Feel free to follow back— I’m excited to connect with cool people!

The German Space Agency has a cool outreach project: The SpaceBuzz One is a truck resembling a rocket, offering a 15-min VR spaceflight experience. Participants sit in motion seats, wear VR headsets, and explore Earth from an astronaut's view, before their virtual moon journey.
