so international space station astronauts apparently dropped a tool bag during a spacewalk. and if you look outside when the ISS is in your region, you can see it with binoculars
The tool bag is now orbiting our planet just ahead of the ISS with a visual magnitude of around 6, according to EarthSky. That means it is slightly less bright than the ice giant Uranus, the seventh planet from the sun. As a result, the bag — officially known as a crew lock bag — is slightly too dim to be visible to the unaided eye, but skywatchers should be able to pick it up with binoculars.
To see it for yourself, first find out when you can find spot the space station over the next few months (NASA even has a new app to help you). The bag should be floating two to four minutes ahead of the station. As it descends rapidly, the bag is likely to disintegrate when it reaches an altitude of around 70 miles (113 kilometers) over Earth.
Some days, I've made peace with my disabilities. I've accepted that this is my life, and my symptoms will likely never go away.
Other days, I'm filled with rage that /this is my life and my symptoms will likely never go away/ and no amount of crying in doctors offices and various medications will fix me.
I'm enraged that medical professionals seem to think that because my blood work is normal, there's nothing more they can do.
Some days, I can be happy with the few tasks I can still do, or that I can still work part time.
Other days, I'm furious that life just /isn't fair/.
Today though, I'm just sad. Sad that doctors seem to not care about the invisible illness. They don't seem to care about people with chronic pain with no evident cause.
I’ve forgotten half of the characters and long ago decided I’m not continuing the show, but just happened to catch a glimpse of When Calls the Heart, and the new mountie oogled at Faith and then asked her to dance… WHERE’S THE DOCTOR? WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM??
yk what if I could make a single wish for myself it wouldn't be to have money, it wouldn't be to find love or anything like that. it would be to remove every and any physical health issues I have, until I die of old age. Like an actual miraculous cure. I'd be able to go for walks and runs and be able to dance again, I wouldn't have any asthma attack ever again, I could eat everything I want (within reason) without feeling sick or shitting blood afterwards. I would be painless and never hurt a joint again by rolling over on my couch or slamming a door a little to hard.
oh yeah, just finished watching this little piece of media. but it was like whatever. i mean, i'm completely normal about this, y'know? like, totally cool
*the camera cuts to me going in circles in my room with unhinged smile on my face, muttering something indistinctly and laughing histerically every two minutes*
