I took this shot of Orion last night at the Okie Tex Star Party. We had 7.5 clear nights in a row and it was a fantastic event. I haven’t slept much but it was worth it! #okietexstarparty#orion#blackmesa#deepskydude
This is Ken Paxton's mugshot.
He was indicted on 3 felony counts for investment fraud.
He was reported to the FBI by his own staff for bribery.
He was impeached by his own party for corruption.
Now he’s the Republican nominee for US Senate in Texas.
Together we will stop him.
SpaceX has been granted ANOTHER $2.29 billion contract from the US Space Force.
Musk’s empire was built with welfare from the American taxpayers and fools dumb enough to believe in his lies.
@PaulMSmithphoto Nah man. We can’t pollute an area that’s on the mend. Covid killed many of these companies and the light pollution has decreased over the years. We’re well on the way of cleaning this area up.
Observing the Moon ✅ Now it’s your turn.
We’re inviting skilled observers to monitor the Moon’s surface for meteoroid‑impact flashes using a telescope with video capability. Your recordings will help quantify impact rates and refine models of crater formation and lunar interior response.

Earthset.
The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.
"Welcome to my old neighborhood." Our @NASAArtemis II astronauts woke up on the sixth day of their mission to a special message recorded in 2025 by astronaut Jim Lovell, the pilot of Apollo 8.
One last look at Earth before we reach the Moon.
This view of the Earth was captured on April 5, the fourth day of the Artemis II mission, from inside the Orion spacecraft. The four astronauts will reach their closest approach of the Moon tomorrow, April 6.
@Tonysracing@kmh Time will tell. HLS was awarded to SpX but that can change. BO is currently working on a lander and it looks like they’re going to beat Starshit.
