Today, the Cowboy family mourns the loss of Mary Wallace “Wally” Funk — proud OSU alumna, aerospace pioneer and our “Space Cowgirl.”

Wally lived a life defined by courage, perseverance and an unshakable belief that the sky was never the limit. As part of the Mercury 13, she helped expand opportunities for women in space exploration, and in 2021, at age 82, she finally fulfilled her lifelong dream of going to space.

When Wally returned to Stillwater, she inspired our students to keep going, keep learning and “make it happen.”

She dreamed as big as the sky. She stood for what mattered. She finished what she started.

The Cowboy family extends our deepest sympathies to all who loved and were inspired by the perseverance and passion of Wally Funk.

The World Cup is using OSU-developed bermudagrass! ⚽️

Tahoma 31 is used at over 400 facilities, stadiums and golf courses worldwide.

In the annual NFL Players Association report card released in March, Tahoma 31 was graded by NFL players as their favorite grass to play on.

Have you looked up what our @NASAHubble telescope saw on your birthday?

If we could do it, you can too. 🐶👊

Good luck on finals, Bulldogs!

Today is the Met Gala. Here are some things to keep in mind while engaging in Met Gala discourse:

— The Met Gala is a fundraising event that supports the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute.

— The Costume Institute preserves historical garments, curates public exhibitions, and educates people on how clothing reflects and shapes culture.

— In a political climate when public arts funding is being limited or contested, private fundraising efforts like this are even more important.

— Many organizations hold galas to raise money for their missions. This includes organizations focused on the arts, LGBTQ+ rights, environmental justice, and medical research. The Met is not the only institution that holds galas.

— The Met Gala raises money through ticket sales. Major fashion houses such as Gucci often purchase entire tables and invite celebrities to attend the event in their designs. For brands, this functions as a form of marketing, similar to advertising or runway shows. But here, that spending also helps fund a public cultural institution.

— Members of the public can later visit the museum and see exhibitions that contextualize fashion as part of cultural history. And their tickets are relatively affordable because they have been subsidized by these fundraisers.

— Not all clothing is meant to be practical or "presentable" by conventional standards. Some garments are made as artistic statements. Even if you wouldn’t wear something to the office, you can still appreciate the creativity and technical craft behind it.

— Events like this provide work for countless tailors, embroiderers, textile specialists, and artisans. These people often work on other types of cultural productions, such as the costuming for films, theatre, and TV shows. The Met Gala helps sustain these craft industries and thus keeps the production quality high for the areas of culture you care about.

— Traditional black tie is never wrong for a gala. In fact, this is how men traditionally dressed for the Met Gala for much of this event's history. Not everyone has the personality to pull off an avant-garde outfit, so they shouldn't be forced into one.

the crew getting to meet a hero of early human space travel seems like such a Star Trek plot anyway
And Vulcans having a non space faring pre warp neighbor they politely leave alone? Also very in character

No one does propaganda as well as NASA. It's cuz they actually listen to the person in the meeting that goes "okay but what if we did the workplace safety posters like we're in a really cool sci-fi movie? Because we basically are in a really cool sci-fi movie."

Artemis Mission Route in 3D
- This animation visualizes the Artemis mission trajectory in a dynamic 3D perspective, showing how the spacecraft travels through the Earth–Moon system while all celestial bodies are in motion. Instead of a static path, the Sun, Earth, and Moon move simultaneously, revealing the true complexity of orbital mechanics. The result highlights how the Artemis route is not a simple curve, but a constantly shifting trajectory shaped by gravity and motion. This view provides a clearer understanding of how modern space missions navigate through space in real time. Right now, Artemis is on its return path to Earth and is expected to arrive back soon as it completes its mission. The sizes and distances of the Sun, Earth, and Moon are not to scale and are adjusted for visual purposes.

Earthset.

The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.

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."
