30th best ORtg in the country and doesn't turn the ball over... without seeing film, he sounds like high basketball IQ just by the numbers, which is exactly what they need post Lipsey and Jefferson

Cats are great if you wanna see the contents of an animal's stomach without special equipment

I thought I had heard that they were simulating Moon gravity for the course, but I might have misheard or maybe that's another mission.

This is also a fake image. The details of the capsule are entirely wrong.

We did it.

I needed this laugh, fun times.

I don't know if it came from you, but I distinctly remember getting a handwritten postcard for this race, thank you for your effort in helping get it done!

I will say this, my first sniff of the WI SC race this time around came via a handwritten "dear voter" postcard. I'm certain I would have voted anyway (my record is nearly flawless since moving here), but shoutout to the volunteers with cramped hands for making sure.

Dane County had 50% turnout tonight, always room for improvement but not too bad given the circumstances.

Wisconsin liberals have just won another state Supreme Court election, in what is shaping up to be a blowout.

Importantly: Liberals are now sure to hold a majority on this court during the 2028 cycle and through at least 2030.

#Artemis II - We have the first image from yesterdays Lunar flyby captured by the crew on Orion

EARTHSET.

Humanity, from the other side. First photo from the far side of the Moon. Captured from Orion as Earth dips beyond the lunar horizon.

Do you have a plan to vote tomorrow? 🗳️ I'm excited to cast my ballot for Judge Chris Taylor for the Wisconsin Supreme Court. ⁠

Wisconsin has the chance to lock in a progressive majority for the next decade — let's get out there tomorrow and make it happen. ⁠

Absolute cinema watching that jar of Nutella escape contain behind the backs of the astronauts after packing other things away

LMAO, you Bublé!

It's frequently pointed out that NASA activities (and basic/exploratory science in general) have a fantastic return on investment, contributing far more to the economy than they take. But even if they didn't, no one's actually taking from the "cure sick people" pot to put money in the "rockets" pot.

NASA isn't why the US doesn't have universal healthcare, or a social safety net. The US doesn't have those things because politicians with the power to provide them choose specifically not to (with varying levels of support from voters). Enthusiasm for human spaceflight doesn't drive that choice.

Oh my gd, the Artemis II crew doing a parody of a bad 1980s sitcom intro from in space.

There's a nice #Artemis II mission tracker here: artemis.cdnspace.ca

LOTS of data about its current position, crew activities, and whether or not the toilet is currently "Go"

Looking through one of the four windows of the Orion spacecraft, a tiny crescent Earth is illuminated against the blackness of space and grows smaller as the crew journeys closer to the Moon. Part of the window edge is visible; the rest is darkness. [Alt-text slightly revised from ESA/NASA version]

We are so, so small. #Artemis

I clearly need a lunar geography lesson

1. Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
[REDACTED]; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world

What redaction from this Yeats 1919 poem is the most widely read book in modern African literature?

The tablets on Orion use VLC... they know what's up

*We were on our way to Tidbinbilla Nature Reserve when we saw signs for the complex (and all sorts of warnings to turn off cell phones and such), we actually had no idea it was there when we set out from downtown Canberra. Extra glad we took the time to check it out in retrospect!

Hearing that the astronauts are using the Deep Space Network for the first time in 50 years for human communication. We took an unplanned* detour during our honeymoon to visit the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex, which is one of three DSN facilities in the world.
