Wow, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture of the stars from space.

It’s like a thing we don’t realise from most of the pictures, but when the astronauts are up there, they can see the stars, they just don’t show up on film if there’s something bright in the shot.

And they don’t twinkle! No atmosphere to get in the way.

Ok, I am dumb and didn’t read the description. Those aren’t stars, they’re drops of astronaut pee.

Oh goodness. Stafford and Schirra pee. They took a photo of it? LOLZ

Oh, Wally. :) I actually think it’s quite pretty. It reminds me of that Windows screensaver from 1993.
