Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
@NameCanBeBland@AnthropoceneMe1 A lot of it does. Then a lot gets eaten. Some gets used as biofuels but all that is used as biofuels is reabsorbed next year when the plants grow again.
Man the Artemis stream today
What an incredible thing to experience live
Coolest part was the crew seeing surface flashes during the solar eclipse
Basically the sun was blocked out, so they could see meteorites hitting the moon every few mins
Just wow
@lostisreed So interesting fact. Seneca, Illinois, which is on the Illinois River that connects to the Mississippi river and Lake Michigan, was actually used to create boats for the D-Day landing. I live near there and there are boats and barges transporting things all the time.
I’ve talked before about the number of former high schools in Illinois that have left their former schools and gyms behind. Today’s #illustriousGyms highlight video is one of those gyms, but this one is a little near and dear towards my heart. It was where I started high school, but after a merger I graduated on the other side of town. #JolietCatholic and its tight and unfriendly confines was a home court advantage many schools dreaded to play in. It was torn down in 2024. This is its story.

@SubxNews Kind of an odd spot to claim no one is there. Its 4:30 on a Friday (workday) and you are on Upper Wacker driving away from Michigan Ave. There is lower Wacker below you which is quicker to drive & the people are on the river to your right, or River North/on Michigan behind you.
.@flexpa is ensuring your health data is free, it’s your data and you should be able to do whatever you want with your health data. look at it, assess it, connect it to AI, whatever you want to do.
@jco871@SubxNews There is also a lot of people in the video as he says no one is here. hahaha
Dont get me wrong I get the safety complaints having lived around the corner from where he is filming for years but it is just an odd spot to call it out.
Times change. This choice – this harder choice – does not.
Those who make it do so not because it was easy. Not because they wanted praise. But because that’s who they are.
Today, the 126th Army-Navy Game honors all who have made that choice.
