a shower date but I really just want to talk about space news the whole time
I don’t have space news queued up for this but I do have a history MYSTERY lesson 🤓
I’ve acquired this neat seemingly space-related mug to drink shower cocktails out of. It references the Louisiana Du Pont factory from 1982 (before it was steeped in all the human and environmental rights issues that came to light) and on the reverse a picture of earth (?) with Saturn-like rings (?) and the word PONCHARTRON across it. Underneath it reads “Off-Planet Safety.” Google research and image search found nothing. Du Pont was producing neoprene fabrics which they did use in the space program so maybe that’s the connection?
Okay back to the shower 🚿
