The USS Vicksburg is being towed toward the port of Brownsville, for final dismantling and scrapping. Commissioned in 1992, she served in the United States Navy until being decommissioned in 2024 following a costly program that failed to achieve operational readiness. 🫡

Tag! #OTD in 2020, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft "tagged" the asteroid Bennu, successfully touching down and capturing this view of its descent, six-second tag, and back-away burn. The samples were successfully returned to Earth.

Eight years ago today, BepiColombo began its journey to Mercury. 🚀 On 20 October 2018, the ESA/JAXA mission lifted off from Europe’s Spaceport aboard Ariane 5, beginning one of the most complex journeys through the inner Solar System. Since then, BepiColombo has travelled billions of kilometres, using planetary flybys to gradually adjust its trajectory towards the closest planet to the Sun. Eight years after launch, the journey that began in Kourou is entering its final chapter, bringing BepiColombo closer to the world it was built to explore. A journey that started with Ariane 5, and continues to push our understanding of Mercury further. #LaunchingAmbitions @esa @JAXA_jp @CNES

There's been a lot of arcs and sparks on the top of Gigabay tonight. There seems to be some serious electrical issues.
