Hello Everyone, Comet LEMMMON has been putting on an amazing show, and this is the wildest I have seen the tail. I captured this last night. I used my Celestron RASA telescope, ZWO ASI533MC color camera, and an Antlia L-Filter.

2025 US6 has been removed from the Minor Planet Center’s database. Word on the street is that it’s actually China’s DRO-B space probe, not a new mini-moon.

Another mini-moon? Maybe. Newly discovered 2025 US6 is officially listed as an asteroid. Unlike our quasi-moon 2025 PN7, this one is actually bound to Earth, for now. Its orbit is pure chaos. Enjoy it while it lasts. It’ll probably be demoted to space junk.

The Northern Lights over #sycamoregap is sadly something we will no-longer see. I made "Aurora" a few years ago, experimenting with pinks and torquoise in the sky rather than the lime greens we often see in photographs. Prints can be ordered. rebecca-vincent.co.uk/twitter-welcome

For all you “Christians” out there. Jesus was a refugee. Jesus was escaping persecution. Jesus was a Jewish man from the Middle East. He was not white. He was not “MAGA”. He did not own an AR-15. He taught peace, humility, kindness, & inclusion. (See: woman at the well).

The White House now claims it’s legally barred from using emergency funds to keep SNAP running. Journalists discovered that this directly contradicts the USDA’s publicly released shutdown plan (below). The White House wants to end SNAP and is lying to protect themselves.

USDA says it won’t tap emergency funds for food stamps, leaving 40 million set to lose aid next week — Axios

44% of Americans are paid less than a living wage by their employers, and forced to rely on taxpayer-funded social safety nets like SNAP. Programs like SNAP subsidize the profits of companies like Walmart, Starbucks and McDonald’s who pay poverty wages. Hope this helps.

Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?

The brain is a dense, thorny network of neurons, which come in many flavors and whose behaviors are controlled by a menagerie of molecules released on precise timescales. It is staggeringly more complex than an AI algorithm. quantamagazine.org/ai-is-nothing-…

皆さま、 レモン彗星の写真は沢山紹介しましたが、スワン彗星も忘れてはいけないと思い、撮影に挑戦しました。 とても恥ずかしがり屋なのか、太陽電池パネルの後ろに隠れていました笑。 ちょっと、顔を出した隙に撮影しましたのでご覧ください。 白鳥を思わせる美しさです。

“We judge that the primary driver of the US’s increasing authoritarianism is the increased frequency of executive branch overreach,” the assessment states. It also cites a “worrying” shift in public opinion among Americans, pointing to surveys that show a growing share who think…

Retired intelligence analysts confirm what the political scientists are telling us — and what the world outside is telling us — the goal of these people is the end of law, the end of democracy, and the end of a recognizable republic. theguardian.com/us-news/2025/o…

Yes. It’s not because his feelings were hurt. It’s because he wants to establish the dominance of lies over truth. He wants to establish that he alone can decide the truth and falsity of things, not objective reality, and that if he decides up is down, then down it is.

Of course it is easy to prove Reagan said what's shown in the Canadian ad, and it is not AI, as Trump claims — it was reported in his local paper at the time👇 — but what matters is that the president of the United States refuses to engage in good faith in any argument

After the Canadians ran ads featuring Pres. Reagan condemning tariffs, Trump lost his cool and halted trade talks. Watch my old boss, Pres. Reagan, DESTROY TARIFFS with clarity and conviction.  Trump is no Reagan.

I am opening art commissions again following a 10-month hiatus. I would love to paint your favorite galaxy, spacecraft, or Moon crater.

This is NOT an image of 3I Atlas, even though it has been circulating wildly. Only trust images with sources!!
