An unusual gray body looks like a more jaggged version of the Earth's moon, but close up. Craters and stripes run across much of the surface. Please see the explanation for more detailed information.

You’re doing a great job! Looking forward to reading.

loved every second of Bad Bunny. That message of inclusion and a celebration of cultures like Puerto Rico’s is just what America needs right now. Plus, his music just gets you in motion. 10/10

I wonder what will happen to the photo archives

Important report with many long term implications for the nation.

Great episode!

Thanks for sharing — good 🧵

A light orange (cream) cat lounges on a pile of soft blankets, stretching its front legs forward with front paws crossed. The cat looks calmly toward the camera with relaxed ears and alert eyes. The blankets are gray and blue, resting on a red fleece blanket patterned with small snowmen, creating a cozy indoor scene.

Forever cute and cuddly

A sepia-gold movie poster for “The English Patient.” A close, intimate image shows a man pressing his forehead and lips to a woman’s brow as she looks up at him with her eyes closed. Soft, glowing light creates a romantic, nostalgic mood. At the top, the tagline reads, “In love, there are no boundaries.” Along the right side are the cast names Ralph Fiennes, Juliette Binoche, Willem Dafoe, and Kristin Scott Thomas. The title “The English Patient” appears near the bottom, with film credits in small text beneath.

The English Patient

He says look how they have them. Some are legal, others not. They are missing their family. They were kidnapped. In Hopkins, Baltimore. Many have been punched by agents, one man in the face. They are suffering. 10 days without being able to bathe. They are hungry.

The silhouette of an intriguing dark nebula inhabits this cosmic scene. Lynds' Dark Nebula (LDN) 1622 appears against a faint background of glowing hydrogen gas only visible in long telescopic exposures of the region. In contrast, a brighter reflection nebula, vdB 62, is more easily seen just above the dusty dark nebula. LDN 1622 lies near the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy, close on the sky to Barnard's Loop, a large cloud surrounding the rich complex of emission nebulae found in the Belt and Sword of Orion. With swept-back outlines, the obscuring dust of LDN 1622 is thought to lie at a similar distance, perhaps 1,500 light-years away. At that distance, this 3 degree wide field of view would span about 100 light-years. Young stars do lie hidden within the dark expanse and have been revealed in Spitzer Space telescope infrared images. Still, the foreboding visual appearance of LDN 1622 inspires its popular name, the Boogeyman Nebula.

Picture of Martin Luther King, Jr with happy birthday message

Today, we honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., whose vision of justice inspired a nation to confront segregation and imagine a more compassionate society. With an unwavering commitment to racial equality, Dr. King challenged systems of oppression and dedicated his life to building a more just world.

Throughout history, change is most effective when people speak up. I am encouraged by the increasing number of people, especially those in the sports world, who are speaking out — and hope we can inspire more to do the same.
