About Cesti Dagostino

This is the web site for Cesti Dagostino, an avatar in the virtual world of Second Life. She manages to snatch some time from her real life avatar occasionally, although she is not able to be online as often as she wants. Cesti's home is a collection of rooms and platforms dispersed above her land, which is where she often hangs out.

SDO launched

Cesti — Thu, 02/11/2010 - 16:08

Yesterday's attempted launch of NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory was canceled because of strong winds, but that doesn't mean NASA would give up launching it. Likewise, certain avatars like myself wouldn't give up trying to watch the launch, and we got to see the SDO launched today.

Futilely waiting for SDO launch

Cesti — Wed, 02/10/2010 - 08:31

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory will observe space weather due to the Sun in great detail. Considering how I love astronomy, I couldn't help but join the meetup for the SDO launch on the Astronomy 2009 Island. Unfortunately, the winds were too strong for a safe launch, so the SDO won't be launched today. Wishing for better luck tomorrow ...

Spaceport Bravo being auctioned

Cesti — Wed, 10/14/2009 - 17:54

Spaceport Bravo is the other half of the International Spaceflight Museum, but lack of funds means that the island is going to be auctioned off. That is a pity: Spaceport Bravo had a replica of the venerable Saturn V rocket and the Space Shuttle, not to mention a copy of the Vehicle Assembly Building where NASA's rockets are put together. But without sufficient funds, it can't be helped.
