@Buccigross I figured the March '25 prediction was impossible after his injury this year, but a couple multi-goal games and it could totally happen. Has been fun tracking your projections on this for 15+ years!

75 away from the record, 895. I Still like March of 2025 to break the record when Alex Ovechkin is 39. Then he can go for 1,000 career goals if his heart desires and plays until he’s 42-43. Chara played till 45, Jagr 46.

Dude, the debt ceiling is irrelevant.
Congress needs to pass bills for the spending for each agency, so that waste can be voted down and cuts made where it makes the most sense. Until you do that, you are going to have a deficit, and will have to raise the artificial debt ceiling
Ed Krassenstein@EdKrassen
Glad to see that Republicans took Trump's demand to raise the debt ceiling out of the bill. If republicans are going to lower the national debt, you can't increase the debt ceiling. That's just silly.

Oh. So in other words, Congress should do the job they should have competed in August 2024 to craft individual bills for each branch of government…
These people are all ridiculous clowns
Ian Jaeger@IanJaeger29
BREAKING: After the failure to pass the continuing resolution, Thomas Massie calls for separating each bill and voting on them each individually instead of a big combined bill. “Separate the bills and vote on them individually…Individual bills for each issue.”

@TimFernholz Not correct. LRO continues to be operated by the Space Science Mission Operations Project at Goddard. The Principal investigator for LRO’s LROC camera does work for IM now, however.

Intuitive Machines says it is taking over management of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter from NASA, which is a key tool for monitoring activities on the Moon's surface

Happy TAG Anniversary!
Lockheed Martin Space@LMSpace
Tag, you're it! #OTD in 2020, @NASAsolarsystem's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft "tagged" the asteroid Bennu, capturing this view of its descent, six-second tag and back-away burn. TAGSAM, the spacecraft's sample arm we built, collected the largest asteroid sample ever delivered to Earth.

Congratulations to the @ESA_Hera team! This is a really exciting mission to follow-up on NASA’s #DARTmission asteroid impactor
NASA Solar System@NASASolarSystem
Congratulations to the @ESA_Hera team! The mission will perform a detailed post-impact survey of the asteroid Dimorphos, where NASA's #DARTmission demonstrated a method of asteroid deflection. About DART: science.nasa.gov/mission/dart/ About Hera: esa.int/Space_Safety/H…

Happy 1-year sample return anniversary!
ARCHIVED - Dr. Nicky Fox@NASAScienceAA
Today is the first anniversary of #OSIRISREx’s return to Earth — the first U.S. spacecraft to collect and return a sample from an asteroid. 🌠 From its successful journey to and from asteroid Bennu to the invaluable data it has sent back, OSIRIS-REx is transforming our understanding of space and the origins of our solar system. This mission is a shining example of scientific discovery and the spirit of exploration! 🔬🌌

@LaurieofMars I hope space exploration will be a prominent theme in the USA Semiquincentennial celebration (as it was in 1976)

And btw,
@AIP_HQ
is a great resource for reporting on science and technology policy news and developments. You can sign up for their newletters here:

This story from @AIP_HQ does a great job of highlighting some of the concerns related to a lack of US government investment in science and technology and weakness in STEM workforce development.

@WillECutlip @DrPhiltill Always want to see more advocacy for Science @ NASA - provides an amazing return on investment. But the current situation is as much to do with congressional disfunction as to a lack of advocacy.
English
@WillECutlip @DrPhiltill Current situation is a direct result of the last debt ceiling deal. 2024 SMD budget was 11% less than what NASA had planned to. 2025 will be similar reduction. Hard to respond to those kinds of cuts when you have complex multi-year programs that must meet a launch window…
English
Please read for a clear picture of what’s happening with the VIPER mission. Cancelling it is a very, very bad path. Think of the political message it sends to the world. Think of the marginal cost to get what is IMO the most important science NASA can do, bar none. 1/2
Lee Billings@LeeBillings
Via @sciam: NASA seeks to cancel VIPER, a potentially revolutionary lunar rover. Instead, the agency now plans to launch literal deadweight in its place, for a total cost of about $800 million. Scientists are understandably outraged. By @michaelgreshko scientificamerican.com/article/nasa-c…
English
@WillECutlip @DrPhiltill SMD budget was cut significantly in last years funding bill and its likely to be flat again this year, when the multi-year programs in work required a growing budget to stay on track. Cancellation of VIPER sucks, but tough choices need to be made, glad I don’t have to make them.
English
@DrPhiltill There’s no way you can read this as anything other than a total failure of leadership 😟

Also the anniversary of the first landing on Mars! I feel lucky to have heard many stories about the mission from my first NASA mentor, Jerry Soffen, who was the Project Scientist.

Humans first set foot on the Moon, 55 years ago today.
NASA Artemis@NASAArtemis
One small step. Humanity’s first giant leap was achieved on July 20, 1969, when the #Apollo11 mission landed on the Moon. Today, we have huge boots to fill as we make progress toward #Artemis II and prepare for humanity’s next giant leap: Mars!

It would be really cool if the media people now DEMANDED that Trump go do an hour long off the cuff press conference covering complex foreign policy, since, you know, they're so interested in who would be the best President and all.

Our #OSIRISREx mission went to asteroid Bennu to learn more about the early solar system. Early analyses of the returned sample reveal organic molecules and surprisingly, phosphates, which indicate that Bennu may have once been part of a wet world. go.nasa.gov/3XCsMLt
