This is my eclipse sequence from Dallas Texas! Simply amazing. We were so lucky the clouds cleared just in time. #TotalSolarEclipse #Dallas #Dallas Eclipse #DiamondRing #Prominence #totality

This killdeer was chirping a warning at me as I came close--did not see her until she did. I thought she might be nesting--but when she got up to angrily run away--no nest. But, what beautiful feathers she has when her wings are extended! #birding #FloridaBirds #kildeer

Folks in the path of the Total Solar Eclipse may be in for an extra treat! During totality, the sky will turn dark as night and the stars and planets will pop out. If we are lucky we will also see Comet 12/Pons-Brooks, which is also in the neighborhood. #Eclipse2024 #comet

Nandy parakeet looking fabulous today.

Today the Mission To Psyche spacecraft sends big congratulations to SpaceX Starship from 9.3 light minutes away, on mission day 154. 😀🚀

The Mission To Psyche spacecraft sends its greetings from 419 times farther away than the Moon!

When you have three United States Naval Test Pilot School graduates in space at the same time, you know the International Space Station is in great hands! Even better, we don’t have to write a technical report following our flight. 😆

A planning application (2024/0087/FUL) submitted to City of Lincoln Council is asking for destruction of nationally significant archaeology for a private pool. This should not happen, we need to ask that it is protected.

Pesky antiquarian alert! Here is a plan and section published in 1884 by Venables of Roman remains a stones throw from the development being considered by City of Lincoln Council for a private pool. You can read the full report on the ADS website. It is not referenced in the DBA.

Important archaeology in Lincoln of Roman, medieval, and maybe even Viking date are at risk of destruction for a private pool. This goes against para207 and fn72 in NPPF. Our shared heritage needs us to ask that it is protected. Write your comments here: planning.lincoln.gov.uk/online-applica…

I ❤️ NASA JPL & all the great work their folks do. 8% of their workforce was recently laid off because GOP members of Congress are too busy posturing to take care of the business of passing the budget. 🤬 I’m gonna write my no good spineless Senators again urging them to act.

Did you know a Total Solar Eclipse will be happening on April 8th? The map below shows the path of totality. It is 50 miles wide. All the cities in the path will be lucky to watch day turn to night and back again.
More eclipse facts to follow.
