This gorgeous reflection nebula is high
This combines 36 hours of imaging on a 115mm triplet across 2024 and 2025, taken from my Indiana backyard. 🔭🧪

Europa Clipper registra imagem rara de Urano durante experimento de navegação no espaço profundo
A sonda Europa Clipper, da NASA, registrou uma visão inesperada enquanto atravessa o espaço profundo rumo ao sistema de Júpiter. Em 5 de novembro de 2025, uma de suas câmeras de referência estelar capturou uma imagem do céu que, além de dezenas de estrelas, revelou também o planeta Urano, visto como um ponto luminoso maior próximo à lateral esquerda do quadro. A foto foi feita durante um teste de calibração da navegação da espaçonave, procedimento essencial para garantir que a missão mantenha sua orientação correta ao longo da longa viagem até Júpiter.

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

After 4 years of war with the Nazis, Stalin and the Russians had conquered Berlin.
After 4 years of war against Ukraine, Putin and the Russians still have not taken all of Pokrovsk just 40 km from where they started their invasion.
Russia is the one who NEEDS this "peace" deal.

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

Yesterday’s sad convo.
Me: When growing up, the world felt like it was always getting better.
Mother: I feel badly for young people who don’t have the same hope we did.
A pic of my mother (a MD/Phd who spent her career fighting diseases) in a hopeful time.
May our children find hope again.

You know who DOESN’T have impostor syndrome? That’s right, impostors
No surprise: “AI peer reviewers recommend the acceptance of unsound papers created entirely by AI more than 80% of the time, a new study has found.”
Surprise: the article still tries to spin it positive for “human-AI collaboration.”
People, please draw the correct conclusion.

AI peer reviewers are fine with AI-fabricated papers
