50 Years of Space Missions on a Single Map!

Good Morning, SuperForest!

I just read that National Geographic posted an incredible map up on their site in which you can trace every space mission from the past 50 years. Every. Single. One. And the resulting image is nothing short of fabulous!

Absolutely amazing! I couldn’t take my eyes off of the stunning piece of work. And during the time I spent observing this map, I also discovered how much of a geek I really am. (lol)

With love,

How Many People Are in Space Right Now?

Because I know this is a question that each and every one of us (give or take) often wonders about (sometimes), Brad Eshbach created How Many People Are in Space Right Now? A simply charming little site which makes me wonder, “How did I ever get by without this?” (lulz)
