Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.
Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl
🚨 APOCALYPTIC SKY JUST TURNED BLOOD RED — AND PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO PANIC
Entire towns swallowed in a red haze in Western Australia as a powerful cyclone pushes massive dust clouds inland, turning the sky blood red and orange.
• Daylight erased in minutes
• Air turned thick and unbreathable
• Visibility gone
• The sky doesn’t look real anymore
They’re calling it a dust storm driven by Cyclone Narelle.
But people on the ground say it feels like the world just changed.
Like something crossed a line we weren’t supposed to reach.
Do you believe this is normal… or a sign of something much bigger?
We continue to actively monitor the potential for the biggest snow storm of the season for some this Sat & Sun. Most will see at least a few inches, w/ double-digit totals possible w/i the band of heaviest snow.

JELLYFISH CLOUD! New pictures coming in across Florida from the SpaceX launch this morning! It has this unique look because the rocket and the plume are high enough above Earth that it’s illuminated by sunlight, but down near the ground for us it's still dark before sunrise.
The University of Minnesota dance team is arguably the most dominant program in all of college sports, and no one is talking about it.
Today, they’re competing in the national finals in both Jazz and Pom at UDA Nationals.
That’s not an anomaly.
That’s the norm.
Minnesota’s dance team has won 23 national championships since 2003—the most in college dance history. Year after year, they’re either standing on the top step or right next to it. They’ve produced viral routines (like the 2024 Jazz to Aerosmith’s “Dream On” that blew up with millions of views, even catching Aerosmith’s attention), international gold medals, and a standard that other programs openly measure themselves against.
That’s dynasty-level stuff on par with Oklahoma State wrestling (34 NCAA titles) or UNC women’s soccer (21+ titles), but in a niche where they own the record books even harder.
This is what sustained excellence actually looks like.
And here’s the part worth sitting with:
Many of the dancers on that floor today have massive social followings. They drive visibility. Engagement. Culture.
Yet they receive no scholarships.
No NIL money.
No headlines outside their sport.
What they have instead is process, pride, and a ruthless commitment to the work when no one is watching.
In an era obsessed with exposure and compensation, Minnesota’s dance program keeps answering the same question the same way:
What does mastery look like when the outcome is overlooked and the reward isn’t monetary?

Tune in to Varsity TV for highlights if you missed it. LSU and Ohio State also brought the heat this year.
Below are a few clips of the UofM dance standard and athleticism over the last few years, plus their full 2026 jazz routine.
