Nice! Skylab get's a second life 👌

Are there plans to make every switch in the flight deck work (even if they do not have a function)?

Yeah. Luckily it was a very sudden death, even without visible remains. No chance to notice/realize anything. You are just gone in the next second. That was the only good news here. No pain, except for the bereaved. I'm not an engineer. I would take a trip with Dragon/Soyuz to visit the ISS by...

So, not really "completely" destroyed (disappeared to dust) unlike some dramatic animations showed.

I was barely of legal age when construction of the ISS in LEO started. Now I am in my 40s. Life progressed on the entire globe and new history was written into the books. Well-known people passed away, as well as less known but no less important people: friends and maybe family members. But that...

Yeah. MMOD (Micrometeoroids and Orbital Debris) are quite common in Earth orbit. And orbital debris are artificial by nature. Hasn't anything to do with a ring system anyway.

A few dust particles, especially artificial, are not a ring or ring system. Earth does not have a ring system, like Saturn. It would restrict our access to space significantly. Maybe the Earth had a ring system in the past. But not today. One should not rely on old and outdated sources and...

Earth has no rings. There might be very few tiny dust particles, but it's not a ring or even a ring system. https://science.nasa.gov/earth/facts/

Probably the best TV studio band in Germany...

Yeah. In the end he was just a normal human being as we all are. But his utterances were more related to the import of the Islam, rather than to foreigners. Schmidt was actually "a better chancellor" during his last years in life I think. Back then, when he was in office, he wasn't really popular.

I remember when they recorded an interview and the cameras were rolling before, when he wasn't satisfied with the couch he had to sit on and ordered another chair: "Gib dem Hans-Dietrich auch einen!" 😂 It's on YoutTube ("Helmut Kohl: Der entsetzliche Stuhl"). He was actually very German, the man...

His amusement value was in fact high. Especially in combination with Norbert Lammert or Volker Kauder during his speeches. But as with some other politicians: wrong party. And his past in the GDR is quite foggy I think... But his show on YouTube is nice though, depending on the guest of course...

Depends on your choice of candidates 😂 But physiologically you are right 😜

Yeah, I wanted to mention it as well 😅

I think it's one of those empty phrases to escape criticism. Happened already in school, with bullheaded teachers that can't be fired or even shifted anyway. "Our politics are right. We just didn't communicate it well." "Do it better!" There are five fingers pointing toward the ballot paper...

Would be very useful for the losers in the parliaments. But they don't have to deal with the reality anyway 🤷‍♂️
