A new step in #rocket reusability.🚀 The Long March-10B rocket's first stage was successfully recovered on a seaborne platform using a net-capture system — the world's first such recovery of a launch vehicle. Different approaches. One goal: reusable spaceflight. #ChinaSpaceLaunch
A breathtaking new view of the #Sun from the @NSF Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, the largest solar telescope in the world! ☀️🔎 Let’s zoom in on details made possible only by the Inouye. (details below)
With high tide and tailwind, it is time to sail a smooth ride.

CME from sunspot group 4485 in the SW of the Sun. Its shock (but probably not the core) may reach us around 13 July. It's possible that this CME amplifies the preceding CME with potentially Earth-directed components.
The eruption was accompanied by a C6.0 Long Duration flare.
China successfully launched the Long March 10B carrier #rocket at the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in China's Hainan province on Friday, achieving its first controlled recovery of a carrier rocket's first stage.

DEAD.
👇 3 precious children of Batavia & Wheaton died July 3rd,
asphyxiated in storm-capsized boat on Geneva Lake.
Illinois politicos refuse to facilitate my life-saving heliogeophysical work.

A 100-million-year-old traffic jam? Not quite. 🕷️
We've uncovered the earliest known fossil evidence of queueing behavior in terrestrial arthropods—13 juvenile mites preserved in Cretaceous amber, marching head to tail in a nearly perfect line.
The fossils also provide the first evidence that mites used silk to keep the group connected, pushing the evolutionary origin of this behavior in terrestrial animals back by nearly 100 million years.

This nice looking M4.0 solar flare was just detected around AR 4482 peaking at 14:19 UTC (July 7). More details to following regarding a possible CME. https://t.co/aqK4Q6XdAY
