Today marks the tenth anniversary of the Jaques Station’s historic jump that eventually led to the founding of Colonia.

🛠️ Greetings Commanders.
We will be performing brief maintenance on the Elite Dangerous servers which will involve a restart. You will only be briefly disconnected and will be able to log back in afterwards.
This restart will take place at 12PM BST.

📢 WE’VE GOT BIG NEWS!
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is on track to launch in early September of this year. #ICYMI @NASAAdmin announced last week that Roman is eight months ahead of schedule and under budget!
Learn more about the observatory and how we got here: nasa.gov/Roman
Make sure to follow the mission on social media accounts to stay up to date.
It's our home.
This Earth Day, see our planet as our Artemis II astronauts saw it with these new images from the mission.

A new ship is coming next week and will be available for credits immediately! Find out more and get an update on Operations coming in June: fron.dev/0a43
One week has passed since Artemis II returned to Earth after a historic mission around the Moon. We laughed, we cried, and we pushed the boundaries of what’s possible, setting the stage for future innovation and exploration.
We’re just getting started.

Artemis II may have splashed down, but our photos and videos from the mission are still rolling in! Keep an eye on the latest: nasa.gov/artemis-ii-multimed…
Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: nasa.gov/artemis-ii-multimed…
A little (ok, a LOT) of #moonjoy this morning from the @NASAArtemis crew. They're doing lunar and planetary science rn, and soon they'll become the humans to travel furthest from our planet, surpassing the 1970 record set by the astronauts of Apollo 13.
Come watch with us!
LIVE: Watch with us as the Artemis II astronauts make their closest approach to the Moon, traveling farther from Earth than ever before. xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1dGYljDRv…
This really is history in the making. Goosebumps and tears - and yes it’s all real (the feels AND the space flight).
Replying to @NASA
Liftoff.
The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.
Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

The Artemis II astronauts placed a micro SD card carrying the names of 5.6 million people (who submitted them online between last September and March 27) inside Rise, their zero-gravity indicator, earlier today

I'd almost forgotten what it feels like to put a new build out! Hopefully, this was worth the wait, and I'm looking forward to hearing backer's feedback on the new Radial Menu and Task Management systems.
New / Changes
• Added a new radial menu to replace the NPC and Holo-Display pop-up menus.
• Clicking the left mouse button while looking at objects in the world will now trigger the most relevant default action for that object.
• Pressing F (Action Key) while looking at objects in the world will now bring up a context-aware radial menu.
• Updated the chair prop handling system to be the same as the player character version.
• Updated the Holo-Display so that clicking on objects now sets a "Command Target"
• Added a "Use CMD Target" button to both the Helm and Sensors stations.
• Added new "Orders" buttons to the Helm and Sensors panels that list current station-relevant orders.
• Added the ability to cancel ongoing orders.
• Added the ability to queue up tasks for the NPC crew.
• Built a whole new multiplayer chat system from scratch.
Optimisations
• Significantly improved the tracing/sensing code for how the player character knows what it is currently looking at.
Fixes
• Fixed bug 2528: Polarisation on the ceiling centre window blacking out stars.
• Fixed bug 2521: No Mission Clock
Notes
• Default actions for objects will be designed to make the experience as slick as possible. For example, left-clicking an empty chair will have you immediately sit down, while pressing F will bring up the various NPC options. Similarly, in the future, left clicking an apple will allow you to move it around using physics, whereas pressing F would give you options such as "Hold" or "Eat".
• This build represents the beginnings of proper task/order management on the ship. Simply, raise a shipwide order, and the Task Management system will create and track individual bridge station tasks as needed, which can be completed by both Players and NPC crewmembers interchangeably.

The X-59 successfully made its third flight today, & @NASA's excited to have the quiet supersonic jet in the air again! With Flight #3, the aircraft took off+landed near @NASAarmstrong & flew for about an hour while its team evaluated performance. More flights are expected soon! nasa.gov/mission/quesst/

ALT NASA\u2019s white, blue, and red X-59 research aircraft flies over the Mojave Desert near NASA\u2019s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, during its third flight. The aircraft is centered in the frame, viewed from above with the canopy, both wings, NASA and X-59 logos visible, and the landing gear down with one wheel visible. Below, rugged terrain transitions into the smooth texture of a dry lakebed as the aircraft, nearly 100 feet long, flies toward the right side of the frame.

Captains Log MFS Day 3,372 - Now reporting a position of 36,122 Light Years from Earth we re-establish communications after a 4 day blackout due to as of yet undetermined reasons. With communications re-established we return to CODE BLUE.
