Astronomers predict a "rerun" of a supernova blast will be visible around the year 2037. The powerful gravity of a galaxy cluster has warped its light so much, the light has to go through multiple mazes of clumpy dark matter to reach us: https://t.co/ebiIBB7IHi https://t.co/a7kNAXkc3H

Astronomers spot the same supernova 3x—and predict a 4th sighting in 16 years. An enormous amount of gravity from a cluster of distant galaxies causes space to curve so much that this "gravitational lensing" effect has astronomers to observe the same exploding star in three different places.

The Expedition 65 crew is back on microgravity research aboard station today after kicking off September with three spacewalks in less than two weeks. https://t.co/51uWpy6qeh

Not a bad view of Cargo Dragon out of Endeavour’s window. Our vehicles are only separated on @Space_Station by about 5 meters. The Cargo Dragon is docked to the forward docking port and we are on the zenith port. https://t.co/QwJXhRg2jU

Thought I’d share some pics of this amazing place I visited recently. Observatories on the Roque de los Muchachos, Isla de La Palma, part of the European Northern Observatory

Space Booms
Hi. Has anyone got any info on Space booms that have been used in previous missions? It will be good if the boom is as per a small cubesat (say 3U or 6U) but any mission will work. I have read about certain mechanisms but have failed to get info on numbers. So if anyone can help in this regard.
