As a fellow scientist, I can't say enough how much I LOVE every clip/quote/eager question from the Science room. We are the same. What a career day for all of these folks! Sending you all the biggest cheers in your epic career day. #NASA #ArtemisII

The communities in the Nome region need food for their dogs. #Alaska #Dogs

#UglyDogs this is a reminder to all of us. Trackers are fickle and not always accurate. Try not to panic, but if you do head over to igivearod.com as there are matches being made until the Red Lantern crosses the line. #IGiveARod #Iditarod54 #Mushersky

This is so beautiful. Thank you @blairbraverman.bsky.social for sharing stories of your pack for all of these years and especially for sharing such a personal experience of letting go. Change brings grief and grief brings change. Much love. ❤️

It's hard to think about retiring from racing, because mushing is, and will always be, a huge part of my life. So I took a journey with my older dogs, who have retired themselves. They've taught me so much over the years; now, they're teaching me to live with change. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/18/m...

Current #Iditarod54 leader Jessie Holmes is out of White Mountain and incoming to Nome this evening! Just a reminder that #igivearod runs until the red lantern (the final musher) arrives safely into Nome. Let’s go Jessie and team!

First #Iditarod54 mushing team expected to reach Nome around 12:45AM ET tonight! There's usually a free livestream available. Will confirm and post a link later.

Hey, #UglyDogs! I wanted to give the #IGiveARod a little boost, so I'm raffling off a small dog painting to anyone who has donated at least $5 US to one of the #DonorsChoose campaigns on the list. 1/3 #watercolor #art

Inside the Iditarod Sled Dog Race, an Alaska Native Tradition With Cultural Flair

Hän Gwich’in musher Jody Potts-Joseph has outfitted all 16 of her Iditarod dogs with handmade beaded blankets made by Alaska or Canadian First Nations artists! The time and love that went into these, wow... 📸: www.vogue.com/article/idit... #Iditarod54

While the mushers are (mostly) doing their mandatory 24 hour rests, it's a good time to check out the #Igivearod and help some charities and schools along the trail. We're up to almost $3,000 raised in just over 3 days of race time! Lots of room to grow! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Q made a wedding registry for his Kobuk, if you care to sponsor dog jackets, etc! Or just read through for a glimpse into equipment. (I'm with his family and showed them this and his cousin pulled me aside, concerned, and said "Does Q know what watersports means?") www.zola.com/registry/bra...
