Welcome to the Moon and Beyond On Monday - it's Space Exploration Day! 🚀👨‍🚀

July 20, 2026

Good morganite, friends. A very happy Monday to you all! It's time to grab your cup of tea or coffee and enjoy some friendly conversation with one another.

Since time immemorial, our ancestors will have looked to the skies at night and felt equal measures of awe and terror when they saw things like 'falling stars' and comets streaking across the darkness. The moon will have been a beacon and helped give rise to the understanding of the consistent passing of time and the seasons. As time has passed and technology has allowed us to look beyond our own planet, and then beyond our solar system, many mysteries about what's 'out there' still remain! Today, as the occasion marks the anniversary of the first moon landing, let's see interesting things about our closest companion and the space missions that ultimately got humans there, but also have a bit of fun with speculating about what may lie beyond, including classic sci-fi scenes, and of course our favourite 'spaced out' cartoon moments!! 🤔🌜🌠🪐☄️🌌📡🛰️✨🚀👨‍🚀👩‍🚀🤩😉😄😺 There's no obligation to post images. The only thing we hope you do is enjoy yourself.
