I impersonate some of your favorite spacecraft, planets, and the entire solar system on social media for a living. (Tweets here are entirely my own, though.)

I believe my mom's name is on one of those chips. When I learned it would arrive on the very date of her 80th birthday (Feb. 18th 2021 of all days?!), I figured 'what the heck' and added her name (didn't know at the time, but turned out she only had about 23 months left):

The names of nearly 11 million Earthlings are riding along with Perseverance as it explores the Martian landscape. (This view was taken on Tuesday.) There's still time to send your name to travel with @NASAArtemis astronauts on their journey to the Moon! go.nasa.gov/artemisnames

Finally! Tens of thousands of asteroids are found each year. Yet 2026 had ZERO through Jan 6. The drought is over. Possibly as big as a jet liner. Possibly as large as a football field. Meet 2026 AA. Blame the Full Moon for the drought.🌕 Expect many more soon.

"How can I relax you just killed my f*cking neighbor!? You got her in the f*cking face. You killed my f*cking neighbor. How do you show up to work everyday? How the f*ck do you do this every day? You're killing my neighbors, you're stealing my neighbors. What the F*CK man?" Horrifying. They let her die there, bleeding out. Her kids' toys in the passenger-side door.

a video taken by the eyewitness, Emily Heller, shows agents denying a self-identified physician access to the victim and telling bystanders to “just relax.”

The Trump administration spent the first half of the week constructing an alternate reality about Jan 6th, which with all saw with our own eyes. It will spend the back half of the week making up an alternate reality about the ICE shooting, which we all saw with our own eyes.

“Do what the government agents say or you deserve to get shot” is not the patriotic American take some people think it is.

On January 6th, I hid reporters in my office because police couldn’t get them into the safe room. We used a special knock so we knew they weren’t insurrectionists. Anyone trying to whitewash that day is lying. It was violent. People feared for their lives.

Whether 2025 was the best year you've had, or...not, we’re moving on to 2026. This weekend brings a big, bright full Moon. That Moon will be shining down on us all year, through the highs and the lows. We hope you, and your 2026, are looking up. 🌕💛 science.nasa.gov/moon/

I just don’t understand why everyone is letting Nick Shirley get away with posting incorrect facts and sometimes straight up lies. He’s failed to disclose a relationship with Polymarket as required by FTC law, and yesterday completely lied about the location of a group of celebrating Venezuelans. Is this being honest with his fellow man? Aren’t LDS mormons supposed to serve others and be honest? How is any of this serving anyone?

Five years ago, a mob of insurrectionists — fueled with conspiracies and lies, and incited to violence by a mendacious conman clinging to power — stormed the Capitol. It was a Day of Infamy. But now — five years later —we know that the infamy was just beginning — a cascading failure of the institutions we thought would be the guardrails of our Constitutional order. open.substack.com/pub/charliesyk…

A team using @NASAHubble has made the first confirmed detection of a new type of astronomical object: a starless, gas-rich, dark-matter cloud, nicknamed Cloud-9. Here's what this object is teaching us about dark matter and the early universe: go.nasa.gov/3YYPVqU

Mark Kelly is more of a man than you ever will be Pete. His service to our nation has been exemplary, while your tenure as SecDef has been shameful. History will not kindly remember your incompetent role in this dark chapter of American history.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth@SecWar

Six weeks ago, Senator Mark Kelly — and five other members of Congress — released a reckless and seditious video that was clearly intended to undermine good order and military discipline. As a retired Navy Captain who is still receiving a military pension, Captain Kelly knows he is still accountable to military justice. And the Department of War — and the American people — expect justice. Therefore, in response to Senator Mark Kelly’s seditious statements — and his pattern of reckless misconduct — the Department of War is taking administrative action against Captain Mark E. Kelly, USN (Ret). The department has initiated retirement grade determination proceedings under 10 U.S.C. § 1370(f), with reduction in his retired grade resulting in a corresponding reduction in retired pay. To ensure this action, the Secretary of War has also issued a formal Letter of Censure, which outlines the totality of Captain (for now) Kelly’s reckless misconduct. This Censure is a necessary process step, and will be placed in Captain Kelly’s official and permanent military personnel file. Captain Kelly has been provided notice of the basis for this action and has thirty days to submit a response. The retirement grade determination process directed by Secretary Hegseth will be completed within forty five days. Captain Kelly’s status as a sitting United States Senator does not exempt him from accountability, and further violations could result in further action. These actions are based on Captain Kelly's public statements from June through December 2025 in which he characterized lawful military operations as illegal and counseled members of the Armed Forces to refuse lawful orders. This conduct was seditious in nature and violated Articles 133 and 134 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, to which Captain Kelly remains subject as a retired officer receiving pay.

It is a tragedy that 250 years on since the founding of the first modern democracy, the US is now lead by the very thing the Founding Fathers sought desperately to avoid - rule by the capricious whims of one man.

President Obama couldn’t create a healthcare program without full scale condemnation. President Biden couldn’t forgive student debt without calls for him to be prosecuted. The orange felon covers up child sex crimes and bombs other countries and republicans are pleased.
