For the first time ever, astronomers have unveiled the shape of a supernova explosion just a day after detection, as the blast was breaking through the star’s surface.
Achieved by our VLT, this feat will help us understand how massive stars die: https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso2520/

Rooting not just for a Game 7 of the World Series, but another 18 inning game that goes so long on Saturday night that the clocks fall back at 2am before it’s ended and everyone gets tremendously confused about what time it is.

Truly what the hell were they trying to prove letting Ohtani face the lineup a second time when he barely got through the first time.
Guessing pre-game plan was for Ohtani to get 9 outs and Dave didn’t adjust. .
He’s pitching on 3 days rest with the whole staff behind him! WTH

Maybe time to bring in glasnow idk. Ohtani barely got through the order once, but got the strikeout when he needed it most.
0-0 top 3

Obviously, Ohtani didn’t have it. Left him out there too long.

Fall has officially arrived.
That means days are getting shorter, the weather is turning cooler, and winter is on the horizon.
