In support of stand up for science here is an image of galaxy M51. Beautiful night. Clear and no moon
I like hard sci-fi too. Would love recommendations from others. Given that I love Kim Stanley-Robinson's Red/Green/Blue Mars series, I really enjoyed 'The Terraformers' by Annalee Newitz recently. I've been pressing @aptshadow.bsky.social's Children of Time on everyone for years, too.
Instead of WW3, why don't we call it the Global Special Military Operations?
Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together. This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.
OpenAI head of robotics just resigned over company deal with the Pentagon saying…

Me mata ese principio de incertidumbre. Por desgracia, buena parte de las notas de prensa científicas son así :(

Add Tucker Carlson and friends to the list.
So let me get this straight ...
1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil
Another week, another #PublicDomainFriday!

Buen análisis pero hay que entender que Trump es el Mulo: su objetivo no es la estabilidad, es el caos.
Stacked! The Vega-C rocket that will launch @science.esa.int's aurora-watching Smile satellite is being built up at Europe's Spaceport.
Stage 1...2...3... and 4 are on the launch pad.

Again: Not hyperbole, misinterpretation, or a joke that Christian Dominionism is a strain of apocalyptic accelerationism which VERY LITERALLY SEEKS to hasten their vision of the Biblical end of the world, & the people who believe this have VERY CAREFULLY worked their way into the halls of U.S. power
This is the Blood Moon again, but this time 30 6-second images stacked. I think it might have gained a little bit in detail, but I might like the color better on the first one. #Astronomy #Astrophotography
