You know what else often happens in war? Children die. 60 of them. That happens too. Children.

For the first time in like forever we’ve had a couple of clear nights back to back. So here’s another astrophotography shot while I still can.

The Rosette Nebula.
About two hours of 10 second captures with a wee bit of processing on my iPhone.

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.

We really are not a very good-natured country.

Need a break from the horror show?
The M42 nebula in Orion. Taken with my Seestar S-50 Astro photography thingy. I hope to add more data to this as the evening wears on.

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Love this! I own both a Meade LX-10 telescope and a Seestar S-50 astronomy camera. I’ve yet to capture this nebula but will put it on my to do list.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need β€œmore training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them toβ€”impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
