Some of the hardest stories I have ever written have been my own. Six months ago today, I was leaving the hospital after receiving a permanent & life-changing surgery. On September 21, 2022, I ended over 25 years of pain & suffering by having my uterus & fallopian tubes removed.

"Over the last 80 years, we have built the greatest innovation engine that the world's ever seen... And the other countries have paid attention and they wanna copy it and we shouldn't make it easy for them"

NEW: Results from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) suggest that Dark Energy, a force that is pushing the Universe apart, may be weakening. That MIGHT mean that the Universe will end in a big "crunch" after all. (by @Chandelis )

Special thanks to @utmbhealth marketing team & @NPR’s @Chandelis Duster for reaching out on this, and striving to provide accurate reporting!

[Christopher Clarke @EconChrisClarke]

Recently @Chandelis asked me about the role of Smoot-Hawley on the Great Depression. It wasn't the cause, of course, but it worsened the economy. The economic effect was smaller for the US & larger for other countries.

I come from a family of firsts and I am grateful for the dedication of my parents to Florence, Alabama citizens. I am in awe of their resilience and loving spirit despite everything they went through. Proud of you both and ❤️ you forever. #BlackHistoryMonth

[Chandelis Duster @Chandelis]

Happy Birthday and Happy Black History Month to my dad, Joe Duster! He became Florence, Alabama's first Black firefighter on September 21, 1981. And my dad broke more ceilings: He was also the city’s first Black lieutenant fire inspector and first Black fire truck engineer. ❤️

[Chandelis Duster @Chandelis]

And Happy #BlackHistoryMonth to my mother, Ethelene Duster, Florence, AL’s 1st Black deputy director of the Lauderdale County Emergency Management Agency. Here is a photo of her by the NWS with other EMA Directors on January 30, 2003 at the Weather Field Office in Huntsville, AL.

The Geminids will peak this weekend. But keep in mind it is competing with the brightness of the moon that will be full this weekend. More of my reporting below: https://t.co/J18pMBW4ij

The International Space Station shifted its orbit Tuesday to avoid a piece of debris. The debris was "small," the U.S. Space Forces-Space told me. More of my reporting below:

Reported on air and online about C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, a comet that will appear starting this weekend. If you don’t get a chance to see the comet, you won’t be able to see it again unless you’re immortal because it won’t be back for 80,000 YEARS. Read my reporting below:
