The largest and sharpest image ever taken of the Andromeda galaxy — otherwise known as M31.

It is the biggest Hubble image ever released and shows over 100 million stars, thousands of star clusters in a section of the galaxy’s disc stretching across over 40 000 light-years.

@PaprikaGirl_JP Lovely. Do you keep water in the bowl? Put water on the flower base?

@NukitToBeSure I love the communication back and forth

@obenkarp Does it flow year round?

@DellCares @Dell @DellCares i’m not getting any response to my direct message

[Anne Hoff @EmbodiedMoment]

@Dell my printer stopped working, I tried everything I found online, nothing worked. I called your support line and was told to call a Dell store. A Google search tells me there are no Dell stores. I called back and asked for further support and your agent hung up on me.

@obenkarp What’s the plan for this space?

This is one of my favorite videos of all time. As a child psychologist, it’s a perfect example of joint attention, preverbal communication, and coregulation.

@obenkarp About 50# maybe?

🚄 Japan’s L0 Maglev is set to become the fastest passenger train on Earth.

- It uses no wheels
- It hit a mind-blowing 375 mph (603 km/h) world record.
- It operates by hovering 4 inches (10 cm) above the tracks using magnetic repulsion
- It uses superconducting magnets cooled to -452°F (-269°C) to lift, guide, and propel the train, completely eliminating friction.

This thing doesn’t ride on rails, it levitates and glides like sci-fi magic.
When it eventually enters service (estimated for 2034-2035), it’ll slash the Tokyo–Nagoya trip to just 40 minutes.

Japan didn’t just build a faster train… they built the future of ground transportation.

Absolute engineering flex.

@tokyo_todd It sounds like you have no regrets!

Japanese engineers developed a “Sword Tip Visualization System” for the Fencing World Championships, and it makes fencing look absolutely incredible to watch.
