"Welcome to my old neighborhood." Our @NASAArtemis II astronauts woke up on the sixth day of their mission to a special message recorded in 2025 by astronaut Jim Lovell, the pilot of Apollo 8.

During Easter 1982 the bacteria that causes most stomach ulcers and can lead to gastric cancer was first discovered.

Robin Warren (left) and Barry Marshall (right) tried and failed to grow the organism several times. It was only when the agar plates were left in the incubator over the five-day Easter holiday that numerous colonies of the bacterium developed. It became clear that a new bacterial genus had been isolated, which was eventually named Helicobacter pylori.

In 2005, Marshall and Warren were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discovery: https://t.co/8s8TWpF1jh

Reform is set to issue England’s largest council tax rise in Worcestershire. A rare display of efficiency by the party, breaking their election promises ahead of schedule

Both the US and UK have a housing crisis. But it is so, so much worse in Britain - and not just in London.

Once you account for average incomes, the data is stark.

Terrific piece. Reminds me of this piece of YouGov polling: we all think the past was better, we just can't agree on when

My first time-lapse. Thanks to some instruction and tips from @Astro_Ayers, I caught my first aurora. After seeing the result, I told her this felt like fishing. Prepping the camera, the angle, the settings, the mount, then setting your timer and coming back to hope you got a catch. And after catching my first fish, I think I’m hooked. Thanks, Vapor!

Beautiful auroras passing over southeastern Asia and Australia.

#BlueGhost caught her first look at the solar eclipse from the Moon around 12:30 am CDT - notice the glowing ring of light emerge in the reflection of our solar panel as the Earth began to block the sun! We hope to downlink more imagery soon once our X-band antenna warms up from the cold temperatures faced in the darkness of totality. Stay tuned! #BGM1

Key chart to keep in mind as the Conservatives suffer their worst ever defeat:

The Tories didn’t lose this election because they were too right wing on some issues or too left wing on others.

They lost because voters of all stripes judged them to be incompetent and dishonest.

Cost of compulsory national service: £2.5bn a year.

Cost of pay rise for junior doctors that ministers insist is “simply unaffordable”: £2bn a year.

Remembering Elliott Erwitt (1928-2023), a remarkable photographer and long-time Magnum member whose lens beautifully captured the human experience.

July 2023 was the hottest month on record, according to our global temperature analysis. Overall, July was 0.43°F (0.24°C) warmer than any other July in @NASAEarth's record, and it's likely due to human activity. Details: https://t.co/2DTIfL8S1Q

An open letter to @JNJNews. Stop pursuing the secondary patent of bedaquiline. YOU KNOW that millions of people will be unable to access lifesaving treatment for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis if you extend the patent. YOU KNOW it violates your credo. https://t.co/JArPHWpmv5

Meet the crew of Artemis II — they will be the first humans to travel to the Moon since Apollo 17 in 1972, and will launch atop NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and Orion capsule as soon as late 2024:
