Dscp - Blog Posts
help! what's a DSCP and what does it have to do with 17776?
So you've stumbled into the DSCP tag and you think. What on earth is this madness. Is it an actual fandom? Why is this in the tag?
*Spin around and whips off my shades* Hi. I am Mimi! I'm the irl RP mod of DSCP the roleplay, and I play Riley, one of the in-character mods of DSCP the space program!
DSCP stands for Deep Space Communications program, it's the shorthand for us to keep track of a 17776/20020 inspired roleplay in a 17776 discord server.
The RP is set in the 17776 universe, all laws from the original web series applies (sentient space probes, immortal humans, etc.)
In universe, DSCP is a NASA program for humans to keep in touch with sentient spacecraft. It’s a chatroom styled RP takes place in a discord channel. You can learn more about the history of this fake space program in this blog’s about page.
It’s considered a “stream” because it is “broadcasted” to the public, like how the 17776 trio’s conversations are in canon! DSCP could be considered a “space probe discord server with like, one channel“ to Juice/10/9’s “space probe group chat”.
At one point, we decided to fuck around with the idea of fake “fandom blogs”, who reacts to the DSCP chat when it’s live and enjoy it like ye average mainstream media. The DSCP fake fandom is an ironic exploration of a typical tumblr fandom, complete with fanart, discourses and parasocial relationships with the stream's casts. These are all make believes! The muns are all very nice irl.
There’re only a few people who actively plays around in the fake fandom space, but they have multiple blogs so it might give the illusion of it being “a huge fandom”. It’s not! All of the fake fandom blogs’ posts are tagged with #unreality, or it will be written in their bios, to differentiate from average RPer who are just posting about their OCs.
The tags we use are #dscp, #dscpcast and #dscp probecast.
Finally, if you’ve read this far into the explanation of our nonsense and still feel like you want a hand in this, DM me! I’ll give you an invite link to the server. The rest of the server is still a 17776/20020 fan space, so you can feel free to hang out if you aren’t interested in the RP.
you know what would be cool?

The James Webb Space Telescope: Art + Science Continuing to Inspire
The James Webb Space Telescope – our next infrared space observatory – will not only change what we know, but also how we think about the night sky and our place in the cosmos. This epic mission to travel back in time to look back at the first stars and galaxies has inspired artists from around the world to create art inspired by the mission.

It’s been exactly two years since the opening of the first James Webb Space Telescope Art + Science exhibit at the NASA Goddard Visitor Center. The exhibit was full of pieces created by artists who had the special opportunity to visit Goddard and view the telescope in person in late 2016.

Since the success of the event and exhibit, the Webb project has asked its followers to share any art they have created that was inspired by the mission. They have received over 125 submissions and counting!

A selection of these submissions will be on display at NASA Goddard’s Visitor Center from now until at least the end of April 2019. The artists represented in this exhibit come not just from around the country, but from around the world, showing how art and science together can bring a love of space down to Earth.
More information about each piece in the exhibit can be found in our web gallery. Want to participate and share your own art? Tag your original art, inspired by the James Webb Space Telescope, on Twitter or Instagram with #JWSTArt, or email us through our website! For more info and rules, see: http://nasa.gov/jwstart.
Webb is the work of hands and minds from across the planet. We’re leading this international project with our partners from the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and we’re all looking forward to its launch in 2021. Once in space, Webb will solve mysteries of our solar system, look beyond to distant worlds around other stars, and probe the mysterious structures and origins of our universe and our place in it.

📣 Attention, space explorers! Our Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope presents: two new coloring pages! Unleash your creativity to bring these celestial scenes to life.
Nancy Grace Roman, NASA’s first chief astronomer, smiles out at us from our first coloring page. She’s considered the mother of our Hubble Space Telescope because she helped everyone understand why it was important to have observatories in space – not just on the ground. If it weren’t for her, Hubble may have never become a reality.
The Roman Space Telescope is named after her to honor the legacy she left behind when she died in 2018. Thanks to Nancy Grace Roman, we’ve taken countless pictures of space from orbiting telescopes and learned so much more about the universe than we could have possibly known otherwise!
The second coloring page illustrates some of the exciting science topics the Roman Space Telescope will explore. Set to launch in the mid-2020s, the mission will view the universe in infrared light, which is like using heat vision. We’ll be able to peer through clouds of dust and see things that are much farther away.
We anticipate all kinds of discoveries from the edge of our solar system to the farthest reaches of space. This coloring page highlights a few of the things the Roman Space Telescope will help us learn more about. The mission will find thousands of planets beyond our solar system and hundreds of millions of galaxies. It will also help us unravel the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy, represented by the gray web-like pattern in the background. With so much exciting new data, who knows what else we may learn?

aight then, keep your secrets
.lmao
.i like these ones a lot and i've actually made the first and second a couple times. i don't know if they taste good though, since i. yeah.
Grant, why don't you respect the Hubble?
GRANT: I think he’s a decent person, but he’s also… insensitive, and kind of pathetic.
.hes always like this hes always like this why the hell is voy always like this i
.fuck
.juice is right. i need a break
