And here is the view from the Moon!

Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost lunar lander took this image of the eclipse around 3:30 am CDT on March 14 from the Moon’s Mare Crisium. It shows the Sun about to emerge from totality behind Earth.

On today’s #CyberSecTotD we are continuing to talk about data breaches. I’m going to divide this tip into two parts: actions you should do to protect yourself from data breaches, and what you should do immediately after you find out you’ve been involved in a data breach.

I've never seen one before - no one has - but I'm guessing it's a white hole.
A groundbreaking new study proposes that black holes, which absorb everything into an inescapable void, may eventually transition into “white holes” that eject matter and energy into the cosmos.
Groundbreaking theory may transform our understanding of ‘white holes’

A fascinating thread with great links for more info.
The chance of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting out planet in 2032 is now 1.5%, or 1 in 67.

The OVERWHELMING likelihood is that the asteroid will miss Earth.

But for the first time ever, we might have to seriously consider a deflection mission soon.

Word of the day is ‘matutolypea’: extreme grumpiness in the morning.

From the Latin ‘Matuta’, Roman goddess of the dawn, and the Greek ‘lype’, ‘grief’. Put them together and you get ‘morning grief’.
