Exciting news! I just saved thousands of dollars a month from my bills by not paying my utilities, rent, groceries, or car payment. I can’t wait to see how this turns out for me, I’m learning so much about saving from DOGE!

Proba-3 is a highly under-publicized new space mission. Two spacecraft will fly in formation to create solar eclipses on demand. The same tech could eventually lead to huge, virtual space observatories & telescopes that can bring other Earths into view. 🧪🔭 www.esa.int/Enabling_Sup...

A moonscape last night. Mare Fecunditatis is the smooth region towards the left, crater Langrenus (132 km wide) is near the center, and crater Petavius (177 km wide) to the right. You can see the Messier craters in the middle of the Mare, probably formed by a low angle impact. #astrophotography 🧪🔭⚛️

This is NGC2683, the "UFO Galaxy". A field #galaxy, meaning it is gravitationally alone. It is about 30 million light-years away from us, receding from us at 410 km/s. This is a single 30 sec exposure through my 21cm aperture #telescope. #Astrophotography 🧪🔭⚛️

In my self-defense classes I focus on how most people are socially conditioned to follow the norms of a civilized, polite society — and there is a MENTAL SHIFT required to use violence to defend from violence. I'm reminded of this while watching our elected officials dithering and delaying. 1/
