Gorgeous historic photograph: Eleanor Roosevelt & Edith Sampson at the UN in NY, 1950. Roosevelt chaired the Human Rights Commissions effort to draft the Declaration of Human Rights & Sampson was the first Black US delegate appointed to the UN. Sampson was born #OTD in 1901.
A black-and-white historic photograph of Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962), former First Lady and human rights champion, and Edith Sampson (1901–1979), a trailblazing lawyer and the first Black U.S. delegate to the United Nations. Seated closely at a table during a United Nations General Assembly event in September 1950, the two women share an intimate, joyful conversation, radiating warmth, mutual respect, and historic significance. On the left, Roosevelt leans forward with a bright, wide-mouthed smile, her eyes crinkling with genuine delight. She wears a structured, textured blazer featuring intricate decorative embroidery along the collar, lapels, and cuffs, with a large, pale orchid corsage pinned to her left lapel. To her right, Sampson leans in attentively, resting her arm over the back of a chair while holding a pair of dark eyeglasses. She looks directly at Roosevelt with a warm, engaged expression, her lips slightly parted as if speaking. Sampson is elegantly dressed in a dark, structured blazer accented with subtle white piping along the seams, a structured, tilted fabric hat, and prominent oval drop earrings. The background is softly blurred, showing a dark, formal event setting with the indistinct face of a man in a suit and tie sitting behind them. The lighting is soft yet focused, highlighting the expressive faces and detailed textures of the women's clothing. The composition tightly frames the pair, emphasizing their close connection and the groundbreaking nature of their diplomatic partnership during a pivotal era for international civil and human rights.

Wishing you all a peaceful evening as night falls in Anton Pieck’s (1895-1987) fairy-tale world. Sweet dreams, all you kind ones ♥️✨
A full moon shines over an ancient European-looking village that rests against a series of hills at dusk…an ancient tree stands nobly in the foreground with its branches in beautiful silhouette… the village is reminiscent of the settings of old, literary fairy tales…there is a quiet enchantment to the scene. a

Beyond the foreground partial sunlight illuminates colourful maples before they shed their golden leaves.

Engineer, physicist & NASA astronaut Sally Ride was the first American woman in space, 1983. #WorldSpaceWeek 🚀 + Wrote/co-wrote 7 books to help encourage children to study #science + Co-founded Sally Ride Science to inspire young people in STEM & promote STEM literacy #WomenInSTEM
A historical photograph of Dr. Sally Kristen Ride (May 26, 1951 – July 23, 2012)—the first American woman in space—inside the flight deck of the Space Shuttle Challenger during the STS-7 mission in June 1983. Dr. Ride is positioned in the center of the frame from the chest up with a warm, engaged smile. She wears a light-blue NASA flight jumpsuit adorned with an American flag patch on her left shoulder, a NASA insignia on her chest, and a name tag that reads "SALLY." A lightweight communications headset rests on her curly, dark brown hair, with a thin microphone curving toward her mouth. Her right hand adjusts a component of the headset wire near her ear. The background is filled with the dense, intricate instrumentation of the shuttle's overhead and aft control panels, packed with gray switches, dials, and circuit breakers. The tight framing, soft interior lighting, and candid composition emphasize a focused yet calm atmosphere, documenting a milestone moment for women in STEM and space exploration.

Toad speeds down the hill on the sled, thinking Frog is still on the sled with him. Frog is not.

Astronomers have captured the clearest view yet of Sagittarius A East, a supernova remnant located right next to our galaxy's supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A* (which packs 4 million solar masses)! 🌌✨ #Astronomy #MilkyWay #Chandra
This composite image provides a view of Sagittarius A East (Sgr A East), a supernova remnant near the center of our Milky Way galaxy. Astronomers used a special technique to separate Chandra’s view of Sgr A East from other X-ray sources in this crowded region, allowing them to study its diffuse emission and map elements including iron, sulfur, argon, and calcium. Lower-energy Chandra X-rays are shown in green and higher-energy X-rays are shown in blue, combining to appear purple near the remnant’s center. Radio data from the NSF’s Very Large Array (red) and submillimeter data from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (dark blue) complete this multiwavelength view. Credit: X-ray: NASA/CXC/McGill Univ./M. Balakrishnan et al.; Radio: NSF/NRAO/VLA; Sub-mm: EAO/James Clerk Maxwell Telecope; Image Processing: NASA/CXC/SAO/P. Edmonds, N. Wolk
