Cleaning up our precious Earth has become a high priority 🚨. Unfortunately, the pollution problem even exceeds our planet. Researchers estimate that as of January 2019, there were some 34.000 (‼️) pieces of debris floating around in space with a diameter of more than 10 cm. — ‘Floating’ might not be the right word...they’re orbiting at speeds of at least 28.000 to 30.000 km/h 😱 and can cause serious damage to both spacecrafts and astronauts 😷. — The American Department of National Defence and Canadian Armed Forces are now asking scientists and engineers for help with this ‘space cleanup’: more info via the link on our profile 👀 — #SpaceTrainingAcademy #spacetraining #astronomylover #astronomyposts #astronomyfacts #spacetravel #spacetraveler #spaceflight #spaceporn #spaceshuttle #spacestation #rocketscience #rocketlaunch #educatingspace #astronautlife #marsexploration

One of yesterday’s press headlines caught quite the attention 👀. As it seems, a crashed Israeli lunar lander ‘spilled’ #tardigrades (the well-known and extremely resilient micro-organisms) on the Moon 😱🌚. Even though they are in a dormant state...we can now say there actually IS life on the Moon 🤙🏻. — I got a call from a Belgian radio station about this phenomenon: the full link can be found in the bio section of my profile 😉 — #SpaceTrainingAcademy #spacetraining #astronomylover #astronomyposts #astronomyfacts #spacetravel #spacetraveler #spaceflight #spaceporn #spaceshuttle #spacestation #rocketscience #rocketlaunch #educatingspace #astronautlife #marsexploration

🚨 Press conference ALERT! — #SpaceTourism, it might just be the next big thing 🛰. For years now, human kind has been investing time and money into this brand new travel niche 💫. The first tickets to the boundary of space have already been sold. BUT (there's a but!)...traveling through space requires a LOT more preparation than your ordinary road trip 🚗. Luckily, #SpaceTrainingAcademy has designed a certified training program at @kattevennencosmodrome specifically for those who are planning to embark on a space journey. Yesterday, our founder Nancy announced this astronomical partnership to the press. @destandaard covered our story. Read the full article here: http://bit.ly/Space_Training_DS! You can also find the link in the bio of our profile! Of course, we're also offering space introduction courses that are less 'invasive'. Check out our 'light' workshop: http://bit.ly/SpaceIntroductionDay — #SpaceTrainingAcademy #spacetraining #astronomylover #astronomyposts #astronomyfacts #spacetravel #spacetraveler #spaceflight #spaceporn #spaceshuttle #spacestation #rocketscience #rocketlaunch #educatingspace #astronautlife #marsexploration

Today’s a remarkable day...and I‘m absolutely over the moon 🌚 about it! You know who else was? The #Apollo11 crew (Armstrong - Aldrin - Collins)! — Exactly 50 years ago 🤩, two of them, Armstrong & Aldrin, set foot on that gorgeous, greyish white natural satellite of ours in a giant leap for humanity 🙏🏻🙌🏻. — The third one, Collins, stayed on the main spacecraft in orbit around the moon. He’s the narrator in a splendid #GoogleDoodle that was released yesterday in celebration of the 50th anniversary of this historical #moonlanding 🎉. — Missed it? Then here’s your chance 👀...full video available through the link in the bio section of my profile! — #SpaceTrainingAcademy #spacetraining #astronomylover #astronomyposts #astronomyfacts #spacetravel #spacetraveler #spaceflight #spaceporn #spaceshuttle #spacestation #rocketscience #rocketlaunch #educatingspace #astronautlife #marsexploration

Tonight’s a great time to look up at the sky 🔭👀...not to be overly romantic, but because there’s a partial #LUNARECLIPSE 🌒 starting at 22h01 Belgian time. — Half an hour before midnight, this Full Moon will peak at about 9,6° above the horizon of Antwerp, my hometown 🚀! — Why does this event excite astronomy enthusiasts across the globe? Well, not only is a lunar eclipse an interesting phenomenon to witness 🌙, it’s also exactly on the launch of the legendary #Apollo11 ( = the historic #moonlanding) 👩🏻🚀! — #SpaceTrainingAcademy #spacetraining #astronomylover #astronomyposts #astronomyfacts #spacetravel #spacetraveler #spaceflight #spaceporn #spaceshuttle #spacestation #rocketscience #rocketlaunch #educatingspace #astronautlife #marsexploration
