I just played the demo for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream. It’s actually really good. My very first post on Bluesky was an L take. I’ll definitely buy the game whenever I get around to it. 💙

LOS ANGELES - URGENT! I'm heartbroken that my friend and neighbor has only a few days to live. We must find a loving forever home for her 2 kitties, Kit (F/grey/white) & Caboodle (M/black). Both 3-4yrs old, total sweethearts. Please ask around and send anyone interested my way, thank you ❤️
Today marks 25 years since the Animal Crossing series began! Check your mailbox on your island – there's something waiting for you!
Some folks in the Anti-AI and Pro-AI community believed I used AI image generation to make this thumbnail. We've now had to change the image due to these groups fighting about it and causing problems.
It's not AI. It's not even fake goo! It's real. Here is how it came together: (1/6)

SH2-284 - Emission nebula in Monoceros
Sh2-284 is a massive emission nebula and active star-forming region located about 15,000 light-years away in the constellation Monoceros, the unicorn.

I ultimately don’t care what people think, I’m loving #Starfield so far. I just started a few days ago, and while it’s taking time getting used to, it feels rewarding just simply immersing myself in the world. (Lockpicking sucks though.) I like how the game uses a NASA aesthetic too!

Six 4x4” acrylic paintings from the Artemis II mission
I miss my 24/7 space show 🥲
What an amazing week filled with science, space, and art! Taking a few much needed days off, but I plan to make a couple more Artemis minis before I release them next month 🫶
The four Artemis astronauts embrace inside the Orion Capsule. American and Canadian flags, along with equipment and hardware are surrounding them.
This is such a great photo.
Probably the best of all the #ArtemisII photos.
Diversity, international collaboration, humanities, science, art, engineering, the desire for exploring, the drive of human curiosity, the reward of years of dedicated hard work, and just pure joy.
It's all in there.
Guys I’m so emotional that they splashed down safely and successfully 😭 welcome home you amazing brave humans!!! 🔭🧪
Happy splashdown day!!!! The Artemis II astronauts are coming home and as always you can watch it happen live on NASA’s YouTube
An image capturing the Moon surface in the vicinity of the Carroll Crater. About 3.5 miles across (5.6 km in diameter), the proposed Carroll crater is on the nearside of the lunar surface on the western edge and would be visible from Earth with powerful telescopes. Credit: NASA
A Crater of Remembrance
The small, bright spot in the center of the image is the crater that the Artemis II crew have proposed as Carroll, after Commander Reid Wiseman’s late wife. The proposed Carroll crater is on the nearside of the lunar surface. Credit: NASA.

We got lucky in Garland TX, the clouds parted just before second contact! #astrophotography
Two years ago today looking through medium clouds in southern Oklahoma… who else saw this incredible sight? It was my first time witnessing a total solar eclipse!
“Brings back memories” Mf the game is less than 3 years old
Diving back into the Flower Kingdom today! Which #SuperMarioBrosWonder world brings back memories?
Both are beautiful and incredible but from very different missions at very different distances. Today’s a great day for misinformation and fake images/attributions, stay safe out there folks (3/3)
Earth set: the illuminated crescent of earth is visible above the illuminated crescent of the moon. Swirling clouds are visible over blue ocean on Earth. The moon in the foreground is a grey brown and pockmarked with craters
That is incredibly far from both the earth and the moon, allowing for this particular sense of scale. By contrast, the Artemis II astronauts were at most ~250,000 miles from earth/4,000 miles from the moon. That gives you this sort of perspective! (2/3)

A high resolution image of earth fully illuminated. In the lower left region, the far side of the moon is lit up as it transits the earth, appearing about 1/4 the size of the planet
I’m seeing this picture going around today being dropped in with the other amazing Artemis II shots, but this is not an Artemis photo!!!! This was taken by the DSCOVR satellite in 2015, from a distance of a million miles from Earth. 🧪🔭 (1/3)

The signal has been acquired and here is the Earth from the Orion spacecraft. 🔭 🧪 #astrophotography #Artemis
7:02 p.m.
The Artemis II crew has reached the mission’s maximum distance from Earth at 252,756 miles, setting a new record for human spaceflight. This milestone places the crew 4,111 miles farther from Earth than the Apollo 13 mission in 1970.
#Artemis 🔭🧪
The Artemis II crew have safely come around the Moon and I can get some sleep. Have a good night everyone. Been a brilliant and memorable event. 🔭 🧪 #Artemis
7:24 p.m.
The Artemis II crew witnessed an Earthrise as Orion emerged from behind the Moon, moments before the Deep Space Network reacquired the spacecraft’s signal and restored communications.

An image of the Orion spacecraft with the crescent earth in the background. Annotations labelling Orion “4 people” and earth “8.3 billion people”
The first image we get after comms come back is us. All of humanity is in this shot. And I’m crying again. 🧪🔭

Don't forget that this mission isn't just about science. It contributes to carving the Moon up between nations and corporations to exploit its resources. #PlanetSci #ArtemisII
Artemis II has officially broken the record for farthest humans from Earth set by Apollo 13. But Apollo 13 was never meant to travel as far as it did. It got its record due to a near-disaster.

The crew of Artemis II is experiencing a total solar eclipse RIGHT NOW from just a few thousand miles above the lunar surface. Here's why it's cool and what they could see 🧪 🔭

“Copy, Moonjoy…”
— Artemis Mission Control to Integrity
Great images from #NASA of impact crater Mare Orientale, now in full view. Blue line is a very rough estimate of where far and near side meet. Its position changes due to lunar libration.

Not only is Artemis II the first mission in the history of NASA to have a dedicated science officer at Mission Control...
...but they get this cool insignia as well 🚀🔭⚗️
