Horsehead Nebula. Pretty pleased with the quality. I didn’t expect the “horsehead” to be visible at all. :). #astronomy #space #photography #nebula
The red giant Betelgeuse is so large that, if it replaced our Sun, it would engulf all 4 of the inner planets of our solar system. Nearly reaching Jupiter, but not quite. #Astronomy #Astrophotography #Betelgeuse #Orion #Nature #Unistellar #stars

This is insane. Many of those restrained for hours are US citizens. Please share these events, vote for change and pray it doesn’t get even worse.
This shit is dystopian. Blackhawk helicopters, zip-tied kids, and racial segregation vans.
ICE is terrorizing communities.

Let’s cheer because the market is up today, and celebrate the lunatic that set the house on fire for finally allowing the fire dept to use water. The market is still way down, our allies aren’t, forget the environment, civil rights is headed to the 1950s. Yay! #trump #politics #GOP #economy

I did my personal banking with Chase for 35+ years. Chase pays almost NO interest on savings (0.01%) or checking. Aside from a branch network, they offer almost nothing special. Don’t be like me, if you’re with them or any bank paying no interest, consider switching. #finance #bank #money #retire
