New image processing techniques “refreshed” older Hubble data showing a portion of the Eagle Nebula. This structure is 9.5 light-years tall and 7,000 light-years distant from Earth, and is one of many nebulas in the Milky Way.

A good article.
But I wish journalists would stop using that phrase favoured by major partes: "hung parliament".

It is of course meant to imply chaos.

When in fact a minority government is more likely to deliver real progress, in accord with voters' intent. #auspol

If we elect a hung parliament, voters are sending a message that can't be ignored
Voters have demonstrated they're not afraid of creating a bit of political disruption to the major parties.

Mike has been a friend of mine since we were young reporters at the @washingtonpost.com in the 1980s. He brims with talent, integrity and commitment to the truth. This is exactly what I expected and he had hoped he could stave off, which is a trash move by trash people. Throw them out.

A far too regular & relevant reminder that there's nothing we can do about the US - but there's a lot we can do to make sure it doesn't happen to us

👇 Nearly two-thirds of major sporting teams in one state are backed by gambling money.

Kids can’t watch a game without seeing a betting logo.
We need a federal ban but the government has done nothing.
And as we head into another weekend of sport, kids will be harmed.

Enough. Ban gambling ads. Now.

Entrenching the two party system might be good for the major parties & their donors - but it's not good for us, our kids & grandkids.

To counter this let's grow the cross bench!

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

"Sneaky, excessive and unjustified"

No wonder the major parties don't want any parliamentary scrutiny of their Financing Elections Bill.

A political donor will be able to donate up to $640,000 in a year. How is this taking the money out of politics?
