Humans last went to the Moon fifty two years ago today. Apollo 17, final mission of the Apollo program and the last time we ventured beyond low Earth orbit, launched from Kennedy Space Center #OTD in 1972. Images: NASA flic.kr/s/aHskm64ger
A color photo of the Apollo 17 lunar rover. The sun is just outside the frame, causing long shadows and substantial optical artifacts. An astronaut in the distance is seen in profile. The rover has a large radio dish mounted on the back.One of the Apollo 17 astronauts standing with the rose. Their visor is a reflective gold color, while copper-colored foil wraps many of the components of the rover. A large, umbrella-like radio dish is mounted on the from of the rover.

The arc of the planet cuts down the middle of the photo, with part of Earth occupying the left-hand side of the frame. There is a great deal of swirling white cloud cover over blue oceans and brown land masses. Madagascar is visible, as well as parts of Mozambique and Zimbabwe.

Why the young are fleeing to Portugal
Rory Sutherland has narrated this article for you to listen to. The legendary music producer Rick Rubin once asked me why I had never moved to the United States. The answer, I think, comes down to an important trade-off: quantity of earnings vs quality of consumption. Historically, once you had a job, there was a limit to the lifestyle choices you could make Whereas the United States is certainly a better place to earn and accumulate money, Europe is, on balance, still a better place to spend it. (Which may explain why Rick asked me that question at his summer

Good evening.
Looking East over Lake Michigan at sunset. The lake takes up the bottom half of the photo; it is an inky and dark blue. The sky above is a dusty rose and pale orange, with a yellow belt of Venus.

Today at the Tennessee Aquarium, a little boy was holding his baseball cap in front of the glass and taking pictures that looked like fish wearing a hat. His mom said “Stop putting your hat on the fish!” He looked completely dejected, and when she turned around he said “But it’s why I came here.”

And if you go through the iron gate in the tall yew hedge you will find yourself in a tiny green room. A little garden of Japanese maples and hellebores, honeysuckle, hydrangeas & single roses. A copper planter of ferns and potentilla sits on a rectangle of moss. 🌱
A small green space in the garden between the two yew hedges. No flowers at all, just layers of green acers and honeysuckle. There is an old planter in the middle full of ferns.

ON TOMATO SALADS: I saw a friend take them out of the fridge, make the salad, then put it back in the fridge “to dress later”. No, no, and no. All usual salad rules are suspended for tomatoes: they must be salted, herbed, and dressed well ahead and left to infuse at room temp. You’re welcome.

The 1974 Nobel went to her advisor, Antony Hewish. She was left off. The 1993 prize went to Russell Hulse and his advisor, for a pulsar discovery they made in… 1974. Burnell and Hulse were both 24yo grad students when they made the discoveries, but Hulse is a man. Gratuitous sexism. 🧪🔭

Neighborhood murals ranging from whimsical to heartbreaking (Rogers Park, far north side of Chicago).
Six panels showing a rainbow-colored line of faces that make up a block-long mural titled “The Sacred Guardians of Consciousness.” They have third eyes in their foreheads, and a vaguely Mayan look.An underpass mural portraying native fish of Lake Michigan.A junkyard art exhibit with a large mural of Medusa, her face and snakey hair blue, with glowing orange eyes.Flyers posted along an underpass, in rainbow colors, each with the name of someone murdered by police. Some say “Don’t kill us!” Others show names of victims, and talk about their lives and the loved ones they were taken from.
