95 years ago today, the Lowell Observatory announced they had found the elusive ninth planet, which they named #Pluto.
They were wrong.
Why is Pluto not a planet? Here's my latest Substack article, "Pluto is Not a Planet."

Our photo group did a night hike to reach this special and secretive spot in the salt flats of the Altiplano in Chile. I did a 20 second exposure with a 14mm lens, while a flashlight revealed this incredible blue lagoon. Another otherworldly place on Earth.

View of my neighbor’s house, with, who knows what kind of cloud.
Many mostly small, bright objects scattered over a dark background in space. In the top half on the right is an elliptical galaxy, a round light larger than the others, with a slightly warped ring of light around it. In the bottom half there is a barred spiral galaxy, big enough that we can see its bluish arms and its core in detail. Other objects include distant galaxies and nearby stars.
WAKE UP BABE, THE FIRST NEW HUBBLE IMAGE OF 2025 DROPPED!!!

I just had the most amazing night. We are in Reykjavik, Iceland chasing my dream of seeing the Northern Lights for the 2nd time - first time in Alaska there was too much cloud cover. I was crying, lights were dancing, it was truly magical. 🧪🛰️🚀👩🏻🔬🔭

People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

If I followed you it’s because you seem interesting and we have some things in common :) Feel free to follow back— I’m excited to connect with cool people!
The German Space Agency has a cool outreach project: The SpaceBuzz One is a truck resembling a rocket, offering a 15-min VR spaceflight experience. Participants sit in motion seats, wear VR headsets, and explore Earth from an astronaut's view, before their virtual moon journey.
