I continue to take advantage of the clear skies, steady air, and good placement to image Saturn in the early morning. There is a hint of structure in the rings interior to the Cassini division in this image from yesterday morning. Details in ALT. #astrophotography

Man redet sich immer ein, dass man erwachsen und vernünftig ist, aber glauben Se mir, das ist Quatsch. Ich bin nicht zu alt für Klingelstreiche, nur zu langsam!
Die schlechteste PR Agentur, ja sogar ChatGPT hätte gewusst, dass eine Ansprache an die LGBTQIA+ Ccommunity nicht mit "Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren" anzufangen hat. Wer schreibt denn eigentlich die Reden für unseren Bundeshajo? Ließt da keine Person mal drüber?
Doing research for my new book and looking at best ripostes to mansplaining. The favourite so far is: “Please don’t confuse your Google search with my PHD.” 👌🏻
Neuer Trend: Millionen junger Eltern nennen ihre Kinder nach Autos: Mercedes, Zoe, Isetta, Giulia, Adam. Nur so interessiert sich nämlich die Bundesregierung für sie.
Ohne das Informationsfreiheitsgesetz wären illegale Maskendeals nie ans Licht gekommen. Genau dieses Recht wollen CDU, CSU und SPD jetzt faktisch abschaffen. Das dürfen wir nicht zulassen. Jetzt unterschreiben: 👇 #IFG weact.campact.de/petitions/sp...

Sh2-176 is a very faint and relatively little-imaged evolved planetary nebula in Cassiopeia. Unlike compact, high-excitation planetary nebulae, Sh2-176 is highly evolved: the expelled shell has expanded and diluted over time bit.ly/4lB3t68 🔭#Astrophotographie🔭📷

Barack Obama@barackobama.bsky.social · 3mo agoThe young people in our @obamafoundation.bsky.social Leaders program give me hope. One of those leaders, Luisa Neubauer, is working to fight climate change and recently traveled to Antarctica. This Earth Day, I hope you'll check out her incredible story.

I think a desperate all-hands-on-deck moonshot effort to build EVs affordably is the only thing that could save any western automaker from being completely cooked

Das Vermögen der oberen 5% der Bevölkerung in Deutschland beträgt 7.920.000.000.000 € Das ist nahezu genauso viel, wie die anderen 95% besitzen. 10% davon als Vermögensabgabe bringt genauso viel ein wie 52 Jahre Mehrwertsteuererhöhung ohne dass einer diese Haushalte signifikant ärmer wird.
Final image from yesterday. Active region AR4402 near the limb of the Sun. Bright faculae are visible against the darker edge of the disk; areas where the sun's magnetic field breaks through the surface of the photosphere, or visible surface
First go at processing some of my Jupiter data from last night. This was using my Edge 8" scope and Baader barlow. Image measurement suggests it's undersampled at f/12 which is a pity as the seeing was very good for a change.
