  1. Whats the name of the asteroid

  2. Fraud NASA fake garbage.

  3. This is total stupidity.

  4. Nasa likes to show off its talents but in reality it's behind china in space station race. By 2030, RUS will turn off its control module in the ISS and leave the Station for good. Without the Control module running, the ISS will slowly enter a decayed orbit and descend into the earth atmosphere to plunge into the ocean graveyard by 2033 or later. In a meantime, China plans to expand its current Tiangong Space Station (TSS) from 3 modules to 12 Modules to accomodate up to 10 astronauts. Nasa has none.

  5. We’re still fighting in the Middle East, let’s not act like a new rocket is going to thrust humanity into the future

  6. Looking to mine an astroid.

  7. 🍗🥩🥓🍔🍟🍕🌭🌮🍖 can't resist good food

  8. Eat, drink, and enjoy your weekends everyone
