1.**Simulation of the International Space Station (ISS)**
Many obodo countries collabo come build this station wey dey travel above us reach 250 miles This station na where many experiments wey dey better our life for planet earth dey happen. U go surprise say this station dey see 16 sunrises and sun sets for one day because he dey run 17,000km/hr. Compare this one for wetin you dey run for third mainland bridge, 100km/hr
E get one water cleaning system wey dem develop for the ISS, something like that fit help places wey no fit get clean water.
He get plenty disease wey we fit treat well well now due to experiments wey dem perform for the ISS. Cancer and osteoporosis be dey part of the disease.
The results wey dem carry come dey give other people jobs sef.

2. **Generation of Mars Rovers

To your left and right is the Spirit and Curiosity Mars rovers.
Dem get better instrument for bele and better camera for head and sabi do experiment wey science students no fit do. And because human never get liver go do this kind experiment themselves. For many many years dem don forward better picture and data to us. Based on logistics, we done dey sabi Mars small small. As Spirit don waka plenty places for Mars, he don finally jam one pothole and no fit move again.

3. **Apollo 11 Capsule and the heat shield**

Na this capsule carry the first 2 humans Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, go land for the same moon wey we dey see for night. As the capsule be like danfo for this picture so, the name na the Command Module and them attach am for wetin be like where him dey park for moon, Lunar Module. For people wey sabi the matter well well, them say “It was made of aluminum and had a crew compartment that could accommodate up to three astronauts, as well as a separate equipment compartment that held all of the necessary instruments and equipment for the mission”.

***The heat shield***
Make una imagine okada man wey they drive without helmet and he come dey speed, na breeze go scatter him face finish. For spacecraft wey dey comot obodo Earth and him come dey return, na heat be him own problem. Na why dem design wetin dem call the heatshield wey dey protect everything wey be dey inside the capsule. For Apollo 11 command module, na ablator them they call the kind heatshield wey him get. The heat shield be dey attached to the back of the capsule and make he fit protect the spacecraft and its crew from the kind hell fire heat and friction generated during reentry into Earth's atmosphere. The ablator material get better ingredient like resin wey dem apply for honeycomb-like structure, give am strength tanda and him fit withstand the extreme heat and pressure of reentry. As heat dey burn am, na so he go dey peel away like onion.

4. **The F-1 rocket engine**
The F-1 rocket engine na the type wey dem use for the first stage of the Saturn V rocket, take do the Apollo program wey carry astronauts go Moon. The F-1 engine collect oga for single-nozzle, liquid-fueled rocket engine wey dem ever build, he fit fire 1.5 million pounds-force comot for ground. Na one kind science student kerosene this F-1 engine dey use ooo-RP-1 and dem come combine am with oxygen wey be like water. The F-1 engine no too get wahala, he come still dey reliabile, come finally add enormous thrust wey fit carry load comot for ground.

5. ***Neil Armstrong space suit***

This Neil Armstrong's space suit, dem make am especially for the Apollo 11 mission. The suit get many many layers of material. In fact, the oyinbo plenty for wetin the materials they do- “A pressure bladder, thermal micrometeoroid garment, and outer protective covering, all of which worked together to protect the astronaut from the harsh environment of space”. The suit get all the thing wey fit allow the astronauts them survive. You sef go don think am, the suit big no be small, but he still they flexible for their job. Na the one wey Neil Armstrong wear na him dey for this picture.

6. **The Mercury Spacecraft**
Before man carry comot go Moon, na this Mercury spacecraft bin help us practice how we go dey travel go space. Na this one carry the first American Astronaut, Alan Shepard go space and bring am back for our backyard.

7. **The Mercury Primate capsule**
Because nobody won peme for space, we gas send animal go first make he tell for their body as he dey be for there. Na so we take carry Chimpanzee for this capsule wey you dey see so. Ham the chimpanzee, also known as Ham the Astrochimp, was a chimpanzee who was trained by NASA for the space program in the early 1960s. He was the first hominid to be sent into space, and he flew on the Mercury-Redstone 2 mission in January 1961. Ham was chosen for the mission because of his intelligence and physical abilities, which made him well-suited for the rigorous training required for spaceflight. He was trained to perform a number of tasks in the spacecraft, such as pushing buttons and flipping switches, and he successfully completed his mission, reaching a maximum altitude of 157 miles and returning to Earth safely.

Bro this is beautiful
U don see am na... people are thinking forward and creating things that will benefit mankind over there

But for here the majority of worthless fellows carry tribalism and religious bigotry on top their head like gala. No wonder the contraption till today still imports everything including toothpick, tissue, matchsticks and petrol.
Utterly awful lots.

8. **Rolls-Royce RB.211 Engine**
The engines were designed for use in large commercial airliners and military transport aircraft, and they were notable for their large size and high thrust. The first version of the RB.211, the RB.211-22, was developed for the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar airliner and entered service in 1972. The engine was rated at a thrust of 52,500 pounds-force and was capable of powering the L-1011 on transatlantic flights. Over the years, several other versions of the RB.211 were developed for different aircraft, including the Boeing 747 and the McDonnell Douglas DC-10. The engines were widely used and were known for their reliability and efficiency.

9. **The Lunar overshoes**
The lunar overshoes, also known as lunar overboots, were a type of footwear worn by the astronauts on the Apollo missions to the Moon. The overshoes were designed to be worn over the astronauts' regular boots, and they were made of a flexible, puncture-resistant material that was able to withstand the harsh conditions of the lunar surface. The overshoes were used on the later Apollo missions, starting with Apollo 15, because they provided better traction and protection than the lunar boots that were used on the earlier missions. The overshoes were an essential piece of equipment that helped the astronauts to explore and work on the Moon.

10. **The hatch system**.
Three astronauts died due to a badly designed hatch or door in the Apollo 1 mission during a routine prelaunch test. The astronauts, Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee, were conducting a routine pre-launch test on the launch pad at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida when a fire broke out in the cockpit of the spacecraft. The fire spread rapidly, and the astronauts were unable to escape from the spacecraft due to the configuration of the hatch and the pressure in the cabin. They died of asphyxiation before they could be rescued. The accident was a devastating blow to NASA and the space program, and it led to significant changes in the design and safety procedures for future spacecraft.

I would say, I agree with you 100%. We shouldn't all sleep and face one side. Let the people that are politicking be doing that. Let the inventors do theirs, so are the thinkers and the solution providers. We just need a suitable and fertile environment to blossom. But here we are, our survival is dependent on the outcome of a 4 yearly poll and it has profited us nothing since it firs held. Nigeria could as well be a morgue of prospects and ideas.

Nice one op. Hopefully I'll go to the moon someday.

Science has helped mankind.

If you dream it, you can achieve it. If you made that statement 10years ago, I would have said, you are joking. But, now it is possible, more than ever before. Imagine the advances we have made in the last 10 years. We built reusable rockets, landed first stages of our rockets and boosters. We have 100 % electric vehicles and much more, autonomous driving and AI. The world is hunting for talents all over, and you have access to these knowledge and more. So please, go for it.

Nice one. I will internalize the pidgin slowly. Why do scientists always use chimpanzees or monkeys to try out how it will work with a man. Always tying man to the monkey relationship, aren't there other animals? , I hate it

Good

Wow very interesting...

O.p nice but u wud have made more meaning if it was written in English not pidgin.some people can't read written pidgin

Perhaps if you knew more about genetics you would understand better.
This is because chimpanzees and other Apes have DNA very close to that of human DNA when compared to other animals
Scientists working with monkeys or chimpanzees isn't base on petty emotional sentimentally but logic...
So lets say a drug test works on a chimp there is at least 95% assurance it will work on a human

Thank you for the feedback. I have realized from my little sampling that many people don't just like the space jargons and become disinterested when its getting too detailed. The idea is just to give a local feel to these tech-advances and that it is not only designed for an Oyinbo man to know. Also, many people keep asking me the question, why are scientists traveling to space?
I am also an advocate of teaching STEM subjects in our own local Languages. Like I said, thanks for the feedback.

Cc: DisGuy, Justwise

You're so intelligent, your command of pidgin English is quite good.
Thanks for educating us
The pictures and the explanation.
I'm fascinated with space and anything astronomy.
Hopefully I'll travel to the smithsonian museum one day.

Cause their the only animals that is slightly next to human beings.

Love your command of Pidgin. Got me smiling . A nice thread you've got there
