Back to back sold out nights at Kinnick Stadium on Fourth of July weekend had sparks flying🎇
Each night 70,000 fans participated in the best tradition in sports, the wave to the University of Iowa Children’s Hospital.
We were joined by a trio of Hawkeye legends: Super Bowl Champion Dallas Clark, Quarterback Brad Banks, and Olympic Medalist Spencer Lee!
Thank you to each and every fan who made this weekend extra special. We'll be sure to keep waving on our way out!👋💛
Happy 250th Independence Day, America! 🇺🇸
Hubble's birthday gift to the nation is this new image of NGC 6426, a glittering star cluster that looks like a sparkler waving on a dark night.

This reporter explains the insane process of turning American football stadiums into natural-grass soccer fields for the World Cup.
Some of these stadiums normally use artificial turf, but FIFA requires World Cup matches to be played on natural grass.
I work at a public library, we have a lot of space themed toys in the kids section and today a group of them were pretending to be the artemis crew and playing with our helmets 🥹🥹🥹
We don’t have a classroom management problem.
We have an emotional regulation crisis that teachers are being asked to handle.
Somehow, “classroom management” has turned into:
• de-escalating trauma
• supporting anxiety and depression
• calming panic attacks
• breaking up fights
• being cursed at, threatened, and even assaulted
• being the counselor, social worker, and crisis team
And at the same time…
we remove the very things that actually help:
• recess
• movement
• art
• play
• connection
Teachers aren’t trained for this.
And they shouldn’t have to be.
Classroom management was never meant to do all of this.
It’s about:
relationships
rules
routines
responsibility
That’s it.
It was never designed to replace what families, communities, and systems failed to provide.
And until we stop offloading every societal failure onto schools,
teachers will keep drowning under expectations no human can meet.
Make new friends, but keep the old.
A new photo captures the Moon's near side on the right (the side we see from Earth, identifiable by its dark splotches) and its far side on the left. The Artemis II crew are the first to see the far side with human eyes.
That's us! 🌍
The Artemis II crew captured beautiful, high-resolution images of our home planet during their journey to the Moon. As @Astro_Christina put it: "You guys look great."
