The Chandelier Cluster ✨🌟
Every "lightbulb" in this cosmic chandelier is actually an individual star, located about 27,000 light-years away.
This is a globular star cluster, which means it's a tightly packed group of stars held together by gravity: https://t.co/GTbyXKTwi5
Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who is glad to see that, unlike CBS bending the knee to trump and ruining shows like 60 Minutes, ABC is telling trump to f*ck off with his attempt to control ALL media.

☀️🌍 Aujourd’hui, 21 juin, c’est le solstice de juin. L’hémisphère Nord atteint son inclinaison maximale vers le Soleil, ce qui en fait le jour le plus long de l’année. Dans l’hémisphère sud, c’est l’inverse, avec le jour le plus court de l’année.
Happy summer solstice ☀️

The story and celebration of Juneteenth started in Galveston, but its impact is felt far beyond Texas.
Generations of Americans refused to accept that freedom should belong to some and not others. They understood that freedom is something to cherish, and that each generation must continue the fight for justice and equality.
Today, we celebrate all of the joy of Juneteenth. And we recommit ourselves to ensuring the promise of America belongs to all of us.

Barack and I were so honored to have @AkunyiliCrosby create our portrait for the Obama Presidential Center. Her artistic brilliance shines through — and the way she infused such life and joy into the piece is truly extraordinary. We love it, and we think everyone who visits the Center will too!
It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby — a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist — to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display in the Hope and Change lobby at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.
