VLC cone spotted in space, mission accomplished
Text content
VLC is onboard the @NASAArtemis mission!
Overview
This image is a screenshot of a tweet from VideoLAN's official account, showing the iconic orange cone logo of VLC Media Player displayed on a laptop screen inside the NASA Artemis mission spacecraft in space. Two astronauts can be seen working inside the cramped space capsule, with the flags of the United States and Canada visible on the wall behind them, and a NASA watermark in the corner of the photograph. The joke here is that the famous VLC cone logo is literally located 'in space', matching the meme title.
