Starliner had 13 failed valves

Teams continue to work on Starliner's service module propulsion system inside of @ULALaunch's Vertical Integration Facility. @BoeingSpace has been able to command seven of 13 valves open that previously were in the closed position. Learn more: https://t.co/vlaOrJQa8q https://t.co/PsGfK8jUmE

The core of the Milky Way with Jupiter and Saturn over the Adirondack Mountains, NY. [1536 × 1920]

Just started to take photos of the stars in a village. Results were astonishing. I just wanted to show them to you guys and maybe get some info about them.

Perseid fireball slicing the Milky Way core - Single exposure from a few nights ago!

My first attempt at the Milky Way with an appropriate lens. I think it turned out pretty well! Taken in Lancaster, PA.

Maybe you’ve spotted the @Space_Station flying overhead. Here’s a chance to catch it on #Jeopardy! “A Visit to the ISS” will be a category this Tuesday, Aug. 10. Check local listings for showtimes. https://t.co/xn3XoG7PLn

Do you have to have a 3.0 gpa or higher in college to get a NASA internship?

On the website it says you have to have a 3.0 or higher in high school. I’m a sophomore and college and while I had higher then a 3 in college, I have a 2.9 in college. Will I not get a internship because of my 2.9 or is that only for high school?

How do stars “decide” where in the Universe to form?

Not entirely sure how to word this so not sure how to Google, either. But, if stars are just churning balls of dense gas, they must have gravity or some perceivable force pulling them into that sphere shape. So, that point in the center of the star where (the core?) everything is drawn towards - how is that determined? Are there just pockets of random pressurized areas in space to suck in gasses and create stars?

Any tips for shooting through a cell phone camera? All my photos look like this and I'm not happy with it.
