Description:
The Fernsehturm (German: [ˈfɛʁnzeːˌtʊʁm] ⓘ; English: Television Tower) in central Berlin was constructed between 1965 and 1969 by the government of the German Democratic Republic, or East Germany, as both a functional broadcasting facility and a symbol of Communist power.<br/><br/>It remains a landmark today from its position next to Alexanderplatz in the city's Marien Quarter, part of the district of Mitte, visible across most suburban districts of Berlin. With its height of 368 meters (1,207 ft) (including antenna) it is the tallest structure in Germany, and the third-tallest structure in the European Union. When built it was the fourth-tallest freestanding structure in the world after the Ostankino Tower, the Empire State Building and 875 North Michigan Avenue, then known as The John Hancock Center.<br/><br/>Of the four tallest structures in the European Union, the Fernsehturm is 2 meters (6.6 ft) shorter than the Torreta de Guardamar, 0.5 meters (1.6 ft) shorter than the Riga Radio and TV Tower, and 8 meters (26 ft) taller than the Trbovlje Power Station. The structure is also more than 220 meters (720 ft) higher than the old Berlin Radio Tower in the western part of the city, which was built in the 1920s.<br/><br/>Thanks and credit to Google Earth Studio.

_otd-in-space-april-23-ranger-4-launches-on-failed-moon-mission.webp "On April 23, 1962, NASA launched the Ranger 4 mission to the moon. <br/><br/>After the first three Ranger missions failed, NASA was really happy with the successful launch of Ranger 4. But the fun didn't last long. After a picture-perfect launch on an Atlas-Agena rocket, Ranger 4 stopped transmitting telemetry data. Tracking stations picked up an empty signal from its radio transponder. Without that telemetry, mission control couldn't confirm that the spacecraft had deployed its solar panels and high-gain antenna. When they tried to send commands to its on-board computers, they got no response. They could tell from fluctuations in the radio signal that Ranger 4 had not stabilized itself like it was supposed to. Instead, it was tumbling around in space with its solar panels still tucked in to its sides. While the mission was essentially a failure at that point, Ranger 4 did become the first American spacecraft to reach the moon. It crashed into the moon's far side three days after the launch.")
