I appreciate you recognizing us as the OG. We've tracked every launch since 2009!
Who is in space, they seem like nice people, I love the Smarter Every Day crew. (They actually tried to buy my domain years ago.) Pretty lame that they're running those insane Starlink ads but it is what it is.
A good concept, I like it! But pleas make ads less invasive. I understand we all need to pay our bills, but that shouldn't interfere with the user experience.
Besides that, I didn't know there were so many guys in space as we speak!
Safari on MacBook Pro sees the time text wrapping in such a way that when the time is pushed to the next line, it literally overlaps partly with the "Total Time in space" label. The time is halfway up the letters of the label.
And these are the biggest ads I've seen obscuring a webpage in a very long time!
This is better than the Magic 8-ball. I DO like the visuals after clicking the Magic 8-ball though!
Neat. Destin has a great talk that he gave to/at NASA about Artemis a few years ago.

Lai Ka-Ying. Nominative determinism!
"Laika" is the generic dog name in Russian. Means "barker".

I feel like this post is just an AI slop copy of that site designed to grab free ad revenue.
I've flagged it and recommend others do the same.
This website is unusable without closing out advertisements upon advertisements...
Maybe you should create whoisinspacewithnoads.com? :D
How about a new TLD, .noads?
Yeah warning to mobile users, too. Basically unusable website because of the ads.
I miss the ad free web.
Interesting. I don't see any ads, even with my ad blocker turned off.
Those SpaceX suit photos look dumb. I very much prefer the traditional look of the Russian and Chinese crew photos.
They remind me of a “face-in-the-hole” board (1) photo.

Anyone else read this as WHOIS in space? Was ready to find out which TLDs had Galactic Coordinates for contact details
We’re all in space bro
Whoisdangerouslyfarfromthesurfaceofearth.com doesn’t have the same ring.

Someone on HN that does not use ad block? This is still so confusing for me. Why not spend 40 seconds and never see any ads more?
Or AdGuard on a Raspberry Pi paired with Tailscale and never see ads on any machines you own again even on cellular.
Looks great with ublock origin running with default settings, fyi.
The adsense on this site annoys me. It's run by Dustin from Smarter Every Day (at least it was in 2023 https://x.com/smartereveryday/status/1631364605426511872). In the past, the site did not serve ads.
The helmet portraits look goofy as hell.
not enough ads, i could almost see the content
Call me crazy... but there's something about their faces. Almost like all of them are brothers and sisters. Creepy in a way.
Who is in space? Well, Tim Curry of course!
I guess we’re doxxing people now
Didn’t know humans are spending that much time in space, over a year wow! I guess they need to workout daily to keep the muscles intact?
whois in space? what about RDAP in space?

Whole website for an ad btw
