I still have a FB account since it's the only contact I have these days with a lot of my highschool friends. I logged in earlier today and saw this "NASA is a hoax" garbage in my "suggested" feed.

There's nothing in my history to suggest I have any interest in conspiracy theories. My friends are probably right-leaning on average (I'm from a small town in the south - so it goes), but I clicked and none of them are in that group. So I'm sort of assuming this is promoted. Joy.

There’s a clip that regularly goes around the internet of an astronaut doing something like drinking a glass of water and they just let it go and are shocked when it drops. I’m sure the same thing happens in space when they set something down and not perfectly still and it kind of floats away.
