An [almost] perfect mission from NASA/ESA and Artemis. If only Microsoft Outlook, Toilets and Sat Phones worked, eh? 🤪

Coh-spar.

What? No he hasn't. He is supporting the illegal war by claiming "defensive actions." Total crap. He is so far up Trumps arse, he could see his teeth from the inside.

Churchill would have pissed on Trump. If Starmer had any balls, he would tell him to fuck off. I served through the Gulf War and I don't want anymore British troops to die for American hubris.

I try to stay silent on politics on this a count but I have had enough of the madman Trump. He is a deranged lunatic and the most dangerous man in the World. The sooner he's gone, the better. If only American voters had some balls.

Trumps latest attack on the UK and Sadiq Khan is deplorable. We fought for the USA after 9/11. We lost souls to the USA's illegal war. Now he spouts lies about the UK and degrades his closest ally. His crazy statements about the UK "taking back the North Sea" are the words of a deranged lunatic.

As a veteran, I concur.

Chris Murphy: "It won't be the billionaire children of Donald Trump and his buddies that die. It's going to be the children of middle class and poor families all across this country that are gonna die for a war of choice, a war of vanity, an illegal war."

I am concerned to see the escalation of conflict in the Middle East, and that the UK has allowed the US to use its bases for strikes on Iran. No matter how the Prime Minister tries to redefine offensive as defensive, this is a mistake.

The Sun imaged from a moving ship in Norway today. The Dwarf 3 is awesome!

We had a good show of the Northern Lights in Tromso, Norway tonight. Quite a few guests joined me on Deck 9 of the wonderful #VikingVela #VikingOcean #myvikingjourney

It's so cool that the fbi is basically the make a wish foundation for one podcaster

I have no problem with anyone making a nuclear holocaust film for the modern age. I do have a problem with them calling it Threads.
Threads is a film made in 1984 that still speaks to this day. There can only ever be one.
Make your film… but find your own story and call it something else.

I've spent 3 months of the year in Norway for the last 6 years. I've never been to Svalbard though. One day!

Load of incels.

Thanks to @iansample.bsky.social at the Guardian for covering the devastating funding cuts that are being proposed for UK (astro)physics, and the dire impact these would have on young researchers. Will UKRI/STFC reconsider? Will the UKGov step in?🤞👩‍🔬🧪⚛️🔭

How the hell did the USA go from this classy couple to Trump? The mind boggles!

Hello Bluesky user—are you, yes you, approaching 50?

Well, I have some bad news and some good news: you are at increased risk of dying a horrible painful death from colon cancer—BUT—there is something you can do to prevent it!

Yes, you should schedule your colonoscopy today!

I had a colonoscopy 3vyears ago that revealed zip have Ulcerative Colitis and probably have had it for 50 years, hence symptoms I have endured for all that time. I'm now on medication and currently in remission. Get yourself checked!

Saturn has 274!
