Blorbos from my space agencies
History changed on October 4, 1957, when the Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik 1, the world's first artificial satellite. It was around the size of a beach ball, weighed 83.6 kg (183.9 pounds), and took about 98 minutes to orbit Earth on its elliptical path. This ushered in a new age of political, military, technological, and scientific developments, and although the Sputnik launch was a single event, it marked the start of the space age and the U.S.-U.S.S.R space race.
This year's Artfight was quite fun, despite having lesser energy to draw due to IRL issues. Made most attacks with my trusted 4 year old iPad and 3 attacks on PC. Got to draw some great characters anyway and received just amazing artworks of my OCs *chef's kiss* Thank you a lot 🫶 ❤️

It's the JWST personification from @robinwaaaaa, such a cool personification of this rad space telescope. Already did this meme with my hexagon man, thought it would be funny with another one lmao
