Folks, this is the *night side* of Earth as seen from #ArtemisII last night as they departed Earth orbit and headed out for the Moon. The Sun is behind our home planet in this photo, backlighting us, and moonlight is lighting the night side!

Writers! Applications are now open for the Launchpad Workshop!!
I went last year and I learned so much - my current project JUPITER RUINS EVERYTHING could never have been born without it.
Happy to chat it out in more depth if anyone has questions!

The one-week Launch Pad Astronomy Workshop helps writers and other creators learn about space science. It's fabulous and it's FREE! Applications are open now for the workshop in July. www.launchpadworkshop.org
Umm…no kids, the president doesn’t get to reclassify Pluto as a planet any more than he gets to reclassify air as a carcinogen.
I finally lost my shit about so-called AIs, LLMs, enshittification & everything fucking evil that @officialgrammarly.bsky.social is doing. I'm fucking furious, and not just about what 1 company has done. An open letter to Grammarly & the rest of the LLM hype machine www.moryan.com/an-open-lett...

ALL MN PROTESTERS
Absolutely nothing could be worse for our cause than violence and rioting. It is what ICE and Trump obviously want. Do not burn down our own city to protest invaders; they do not care; they will enjoy it. Do not do it. Do not let your fellow protesters do it.
This is not America.
There's some useful information here: bsky.app/profile/koja...
Wow, I wanna play that :)
That could help with lighting. But the other thing would be coming up with visuals for the different rooms/scenes. Maybe the computer gaming club will want to create those.
Do you have cove lighting?
Just gotta figure out a way to generate fulldome imagrey of the dungeon, etc.
Playing DnD in the dome. I gotta do this!

But the music will never stop.
One More Saturday Night—but our first without #BobWeir.
I was grateful for his music.
Thought he'd be the last to go. Will try to approach this the same way he did. Fare The Well, Bobby.
There's one hell of a band forming somewhere...
Oh I told them.
Who agrees? ✋

Do what it says.
Look at Earth - our home world - from the surface of Mars.
You are a terranaut on that fragile planet.
