NOT JUST TEXAS— EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE SHOULD CHECK- it’s easy. Do it several times- this regime cannot be trusted anywhere!

Balancing the US deficits require three things. 1. Cut spending 2. Increase revenue 3. Ensure you are collecting everything due in a timely manner. I haven't seen any actions from either party that addresses all three of those. The US will have massive deficits until all 3 happen at the same time.

Japanese scientists have confirmed a monumental discovery: asteroid Ryugu contains all 5 nucleobases essential for DNA and RNA. By analyzing 5.4 grams of material returned by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft, researchers identified adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil in similar proportions.

I personally planned those Saturn Orbit Insertion images!!! And what a rush it was to actually see them! Saturn's rings ... closer than we'd ever been before and 23 years after Voyager 2 sped through the neighborhood. 📰🧪🛰️❤️

#OTD 1 July 2004 (30 June US time), the NASA/ESA/ASI Cassini-Huygens spacecraft entered orbit around Saturn, the first to do so. This is the first image of the planet's rings received after orbit insertion. www.esa.int/ESA_Multimed... @carolynporco.bsky.social @cmundell.esa.int @science.esa.int

After becoming the first spacecraft to enter orbit around Saturn, Cassini-Huygens sent back a photograph of a portion of the planet's rings. It was taken by the spacecraft's narrow-angle camera and shows the dark, unlit side of the rings.

Hubble Space Telescope image of Arp 25, also known as NGC 2276. The lopsided galaxy has a core offset to the upper left and a spiral arm separated from the others. It is interacting with a nearby galaxy, just out of frame. Credit: NASA, ESA, STScI, P. Sell Source

Against the black background of space, which has distant stars and galaxies scattered across, is a large spiral galaxy filled with streaks of blue and pink. The galaxy has warped spiral arms that wrap clockwise around its bright yellow core. Toward the upper right, one of its arms appears to be breaking away from the rest of the galaxy.
