The #AirIndiaFlight182 sundial marks the passage of the sun on June 23rd and identifies 08:41 AM EDT as the equivalent of solar noon in Ahakista, when the sun is oriented directly south of the Irish sundial and shines directly upon it.

The inscription on the Air India Flight 182 memorial sundial in #Toronto reads, "Time Flies / Suns Rise And Shadows Fall / Let It Pass By / Love Reigns Forever Overall".

Been a fan of @therichardpetty all my life and didn’t know until today that the King’s first @NASCAR Cup series race was in… wait for it…

Canada - at the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) grounds in Toronto on July 18, 1958. (The race was won by his dad, Lee.)

The @SunChips 'solar' billboard we designed for @Fritolay was unveiled on #EarthDay 2008 in #Oakland CA. See the time-lapse video here https://t.co/lWG5DplAjC via @YouTube. #SunChips

Still one of my proudest designs...

One of the best sunrises of the year in #Toronto is taking place this month https://t.co/fNPrTFcKzq via @torontodotcom #Torontohenge

Everything about the Artemis II mission is mind-boggling. But for me, the most mind-boggling part is realizing that they were dealing with a moving target.

@oldhockeycards Rod Gilbert. I’m guessing he had his spinal fusion surgery in ‘65-‘66 based on the number of games he played that season.

@Cmdr_Hadfield Good evening Cmdr. I agree it’s a stunning photo but why is there no day/night line? Especially since the sun seems to be behind Earth. Thank you.

Whatever that pitch call was by the coach, we like it. #SpringerDinger #BlueJays

Has anyone seen this type of circular pattern in snow before? It’s near my bird feeders so I’m thinking feathers?? But there are no tracks inside the circle. #snow #feathers

Toronto will receive an extra 90 minutes of daylight this month. Bring it on!

Calgary almost 2 hours more.
