We had a pretty big night in our little #planetarium at @towsonu.bsky.social, with our student presenters taking 165 visitors from our Science Complex on a tour of the universe!

Not fake at all. Every location between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn gets a shadowless noon twice each year. It only lasts for a moment, but for a short while the world looks like bad photoshop.

this is how I learned apparently Alabama is the only entire state that would have 0 post 8am sunrises and I'm fairly fascinated by this because it feels like it reinforces everyone's confusion that Alabama is in central time. lol

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!

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.

Ukraine appears to have won the Battle of Kupyansk. Russian Z-bloggers are now acknowledging a retreat — after months of lies from the Kremlin. The truth caught up. A meaningful Christmas moment for Ukraine. Slava Ukraini.
