Screenshots of tweets & embedding them seems the best route to go, IMHO.
FWIW, I've noticed that clearing your cache/cookies for the twitter site will reset the annoying pop ups.
...Some people really don't understand why this happens, and I think the slow photo backfill and/or non-visibility reflects poorly on NSF. It also makes the page jump around while you are trying to read or look closely at something in the thread.
The update thread has gotten so noisy it's getting to be not worth the effort to read.
Any twitter crap stuck in there usually shows up in the discussion thread again and again and again and again.
..Maybe a compromise. A second update thread for Twitter only. In 10 years its content will have evaporated and Twitter can take it's true place in the historical record.
Agreed. It's turned into a twitter aggregator. ...Yeah, that. Crossposting is also lowering the quality.

It also makes the page jump around while you are trying to read or look closely at something in the thread. Happens on many sites and can be annoying... especially when you click on something only to discover it moved during the page update and I end up going somewhere I didn't want. Would you prefer synchronous loads and wait until all of them complete before displaying page? Think most would say no. How does this "reflect poorly on NSF"?
It should be a simple straight forward thing to get the original twitter poster to agree to allow the pics on nasaspaceflight.com.
