Look, I think the Balogun red card was dumb, but the overturn smells so dirty. #Belgium has every right to be furious. Maybe #UEFA should consider leaving #FIFA. I'd rather #USMNT wins cleanly without Trump's thumb on the scale. Ridiculous. #WorldCup #Soccer www.uefa.com/news-media/n...

I was struggling to find a good post for #July4th, but then stumbled on DSCOVR and thought it was perfect. Happy #America250 #Science #Space

Absolute respect to #CapeVerde for a world class showing against #Argentina. Best game of the #WorldCup so far. #Soccer

Argentina beat Cape Verde 3-2

Argentina saw off a spirited Cape Verde side in one of the most incredible World Cup knockout matches in recent memory.Cristian Romero and Lisandro Martinez struck in extra time for Argentina, either ...

I love Pochettino and #USMNT #USA That was a tough game and they did it. Congratulations! #WorldCup (VAR can suck it)

Should have been 9-0. "Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

Comet 3I/ATLAS, the interstellar visitor that blew through our solar system, might have been a truly ancient relic. A new analysis of its unusual composition suggests the comet could be up to 12 billion years old, dating from the earliest era of our galaxy. 🧪🔭 esawebb.org/news/weic2613/

Measurements of specific element varieties by Webb’s NIRSpec (Near-Infrared Spectrograph) instrument show how different the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is from comets originating in our own Solar System. Researchers used NIRSpec to measure carbon-13, which contains an extra neutron, relative to the more common carbon-12. They also measured the abundance of heavy hydrogen, which is a hydrogen atom with an added neutron.

Webb’s NIRSpec found a surprisingly large amount of heavy hydrogen, with a low abundance of carbon-13, indicating that 3I/ATLAS came from a place very different from our own Solar System. Researchers say early analysis of these results indicates that 3I/ATLAS was ejected from its origin system billions of years ago.

Also eliminated was Haiti by Brazil, but at least they took it like champs. Made solid plays and attempts the entire way through. This game was... not that. Ouch.

paraguay somehow holds on for an entire half with 10 guys and turkey is out of the world cup and the united states wins the group I have never seen a team so completely snakebit, turkey could buy a nyc mayor more easily than a goal this world cup

Good job #USMNT especially Freeman for 3 WC goals so far! Didn't know y'all switched to playing rugby in the second half lol. Still less chaotic than that 6-0 Canada/Qatar game. #WorldCup #Soccer

For the first time since 1930, the USMNT has won back-to-back games in the men’s World Cup.

The Croatian goalkeeper Livakovic' deserves props for that onslaught of saves he did in like 2 minutes. Great game. #WorldCup #England #Croatia #Soccer

I had a wonderful time today at the GT 1000 & GT 2000 Instructor Development Conference. Thank you #GeorgiaTech OUESS. I'm looking forward to teaching #GT1000 this upcoming Fall.

Carl Sagan's The Demon-Haunted World remains eternally relevant: “I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; ... (1/4)

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “The world we’re moving into will look more like the one before the modern era than like the one we grew up in,” Katya Ungerman writes. “It will be saturated with the supernatural. Everyone will believe in something. The question is in what.”

@hankgreen.bsky.social Hey Hank, I just watched your video. Yes, #Artemis II was capturing the reflected #Moon e.g. a "moon glint" in the ocean. Check out the analogous "sun glint" reflections captured by #DSCOVR epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/galleries/20... #Science #NASA #Space

It occurs to me that having everything centralized on the cloud might has some downsides. #EduSky #AcademicSky 🙃

I have a wild idea. Let's take all the private student loan lenders, liquidate them, and jail the C-suites? If I have to read one more desperate post by an 18 year old thinking their life is over because they signed a predatory Sallie Mae loan, I'll scream. #EduSky #AcademicSky #StudentLoans

This is not an expanding supernova, but a "light echo" as light (from V838 Monocerotis) travels through an already present nebula illuminating it over several years. #Science #Space #Astronomy See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V838_Mo... This is similar to the #MIT light-camera: youtu.be/EtsXgODHMWk?...

Dead trees remind me of whale-fall, but for forests, as these collapsed titans (pic: fallen White Oak) decompose into soil/humus which sustains future generations of plant and animal life. #Biology #Science #Ecology
