Four months and 29 days later, I’m done walking (for now)!

Everyone in NYC needs to go outside right now. It's like 45 degrees with a little bit of intermittent sun and that needs to be soaked up as much as possible before it's too late in the interest of public health, you have four hours

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

the only real new yorker is eric adams

I am full of microplastics. I am a microplastic man

tomorrow marks two weeks out from your local turkey trot i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if you’re not hitting 120 miles this week that same high school kid will out kick you again start your overtraining now and beat that kid on thanksgiving

@PlanetaryGao unfortunately YouTube has been wall-to-wall fear-mongering ads, and the mailers have been prolific. but very few actual appearances, and not until after Zohran started skyrocketing. dude doesn’t even pretend to not hate the city. purely running on vanity.

I get that I’m in a bubble here but I have not seen a single hint that Cuomo is campaigning, like at all, not even gaffes And meanwhile Mamdani is doing 12 mile hikes

“I asked chatgpt” “I asked grok” I asked the diseased liver of a sacrificed lamb. We are not the same.

The entire month of May 2025 in the Sun’s atmosphere. Although the Sun produced a few large solar flares, sunspot numbers were the lowest we’ve seen since August 2022. We are likely now slowly moving towards solar minimum, but we still expect large flares throughout this decline!

This sunspot is larger than our entire planet

Today's partial eclipse from Paris in Halpha and calcium K 😎

My non-running colleagues will be THRILLED to once again hear me talk for 60 hours about people I don't know, looking for books in a forest, somewhere very far away, because a man smoked a cigarette near a gate #bm100

#TBT: This previously released image by the @NSF Daniel K. #InouyeSolarTelescope, operated by the NSO, shows the surface of the #Sun, a region of 82,500km across at a resolution of 18km. Adding Earth for scale really shows just how big - and detailed - this solar snapshot is!

It’s never been so over

#CASSINI-HUYGENS #SATURN MISSION Target Name: #Saturn Start Time (YMDhms): 2012-09-19 Camera: Wide Angle FILTER_NAME = 13x MT2 + BL1 opus.pds-rings.seti.org/opus/#/instrum… NASA/JPL/j. Roger

Aurorae overhead in Brooklyn!

Time lapse of Saturday's #Sun covering 5 hours of real time. A prominence flares off to the right and a large filament loop shows activity below center. 70 x 600 x 0.7 ms Ha < 0.7 Å in Lunt 40 at f/10.

The surface of the Sun at some ~5000mm focal length. I captured this image early in the morning during a spell of calm seeing conditions. Each convection cell measures approximately 1,000km (1.5 arcsec) in size. #astrophotography #telescope #sun #solar

Finally an observational tracer in disk integrated high res spectra of magnetic field strength, at least for a very active star.
