This is an edited comedic image of the full Moon set against a starry space background. The Moon has been digitally altered to add a deep vertical cleft running directly down its center, making the entire spherical Moon visually resemble human buttocks. The meme plays on popular conspiracy tropes that claim NASA hides the true appearance of the Moon's hidden far side from the public, turning the conspiracy premise into a silly, vulgar visual pun.

This is a humorous meme using the popular 'person ignoring chaotic background fight' template. The foreground shows a NASA astronaut, labeled the Artemis II crew, sitting calmly at a table looking at his phone while a full brawl breaks out behind him. The fighting groups are labeled: NASA supporters are fighting against moon landing deniers and flat earthers, who all argue over the upcoming moon mission while the actual mission crew simply ignores the chaos. The joke pokes fun at how conspiracy theorists and space fans fight online while the actual mission team just carries on with their work.

This meme pokes fun at flat Earth conspiracy theorists, visualizing their reaction when looking at new photos of a spherical Earth captured by NASA's Artemis program crew. It uses a dramatic close-up shot of an astronaut (Joseph Cooper from the film *Interstellar*) staring out a spacecraft window to represent this uncomfortable confrontation with evidence that contradicts their conspiracy belief. The on-image text contains a minor typo, spelling 'believers' as 'believeers'.

This meme showcases a historic, one-of-a-kind photograph capturing three iconic aviation vehicles together: a **Concorde supersonic jet** flying overhead, a **NASA Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (modified Boeing 747)** with a Space Shuttle mounted on its back parked on the tarmac, and a commercial jet in the background. The caption *"This photo can never be taken again"* is accurate, as the Concorde was retired in 2003, and the Space Shuttle program concluded in 2011, making this specific combination of aircraft in this context impossible to replicate. The image highlights a unique moment in aviation history, evoking nostalgia for these legendary retired aircraft.

This image is a screenshot of a Twitter (now X) thread featuring a wholesome interaction. User Naomi 😎 H opens with the urgent line "EVERYONE LISTEN" before announcing their exciting news: "I GOT ACCEPTED FOR A NASA INTERNSHIP". The post gains significant engagement, with 158 comments, 129 retweets, and 3447 likes. The standout moment is when Homer Hickam—renowned author of *Rocket Boys* (a memoir about his journey to becoming a NASA engineer, adapted into the film *October Sky*)—replies with a simple, genuine "Congrats.". Naomi responds enthusiastically with "Wow, thank you so much", and Hickam follows up with "You're welcome". This interaction feels particularly meaningful because Hickam's personal story and career are deeply tied to NASA, making his recognition a special milestone for an aspiring space industry intern.

A 2x2 collage meme. Top-left: An animated blonde woman in a blue floral dress with the text 'I can't believe he didn't cry during Titanic!'. Top-right: An animated dark-haired woman in a black top with 'Do men even have feelings?'. Bottom-left: A photograph of NASA's Perseverance rover on Mars with a caption: 'NASA's Perseverance rover loses its hitchhiking pet rock after more than a year together on Mars'. Bottom-right: An animated bearded man with a somber expression, likely reacting to the rock loss. The meme humorously contrasts human skepticism about men's emotions (related to Titanic) with the implied 'grief' of the rover losing its rock, suggesting even inanimate/non-human entities can have emotional attachments.

A meme featuring a screenshot of a 2017 news article from The Express Tribune's Technology section with the headline 'Mars missions may be all-female to avoid astronauts having sex during 1.5-year journey'. Below the headline, there is a photo of four female astronauts in blue NASA uniforms posing in front of a spacecraft. The article shows 32,756 shares with Facebook and Twitter share buttons. A Twitter comment from Adrienne Adele Cox (@AdrienneACox) is overlaid at the bottom, reading 'Should we tell them? I wanna tell them..', which humorously critiques the article's premise by implying same-sex relationships were not considered in the logic of preventing sexual activity during space travel.

That will be a great 1.5 years journey!

The image features astronaut Leland Melvin in an orange NASA spacesuit, sitting and interacting with his two golden retriever dogs, Jake and Scout. One dog is licking Melvin's face while the other looks up at him, both appearing happy and excited. The background includes an American flag and a model of a space shuttle. Above the image, there is encouraging text: 'If you're having a bad day, remember that Astronaut Leland Melvin chose to pose for his official NASA portrait with his two dogs, Jake and Scout. You're welcome.'

The meme is divided into two sections. The top section displays an image of solar panels with overlaid text reading: 'US town rejects solar farm amid worries it would "suck up all the energy from the Sun"', mimicking a news headline. The bottom section features a large, heavily distorted yellow face with exaggerated facial features—wide, glassy eyes, raised eyebrows, and an agape mouth—labeled 'NASA scientists:' to visually represent shock, disbelief, or amusement at the town's scientifically unfounded concern about solar energy.

A screenshot of two tweets from X.com. The first tweet, posted by WeRateDogs (@dog_rates) on 4/6/20, features a photo of a brown bulldog named Nellie walking on grass with a large, transparent bubble surrounding her head, humorously framed as an 'astronaut' on a 'spacewalk.' The caption reads: 'This is Nellie. She's an astronaut. Please don't interrupt her spacewalk. 13/10' (a signature WeRateDogs over-10 rating). Below this, a reply tweet from NASA (@NASA) on the same date references Neil Armstrong's famous moon landing quote, adapting it to: 'That's one small boop for the pup; one giant boop for pupkind.' accompanied by a paw print and rocket emoji. The tweets have engagement metrics: 682 comments, 32K retweets, and 261K likes for WeRateDogs' post, and 148 comments, 4.4K retweets, and 65K likes for NASA's reply.

The image features NASA astronaut Anne C. McClain in a spacesuit with the American flag in the background. A circular inset shows another woman, later identified as her ex-wife Summer Worden. The text overlay states that Worden admitted fabricating claims of being the victim of the 'first crime committed in space,' referring to an incident where she accused McClain of accessing her bank account from the International Space Station. The original 9Gag title humorously references the retraction by joking that 'crime rate in space isn't 100% lesbian women anymore,' alluding to the same-sex relationship context of the dispute.

A three-panel collage featuring the Voyager spacecraft in deep space, personified through text overlays. The top-left panel shows the spacecraft against a dark, starry background with the caption 'I'm so cold,' expressing the harsh conditions of space. The top-right panel, similarly showing the spacecraft, includes 'It's lonely here,' conveying isolation. The bottom panel depicts the spacecraft near a bright light source (likely the Sun) with 'Please don't stop listening,' a poignant appeal for continued attention to the mission's data. The meme evokes empathy by humanizing the iconic spacecraft, which has traveled beyond our solar system.
