Gentle. Men.
Born a year after Edwin Hubble discovered that our Milky Way galaxy was just one of countless other galaxies that populate the universe.

Smart, kind, and gentle. Not sure if they make 'em like that anymore.

RIP Jimmy Carter (1924 - 2024).

Awesome shot!
You like comets?

We discover dozens per year. Occasionally, one's visible to the unaided eye.

C/2024 G3 is just such a comet. Look for it this coming week. Photo by Astronaut Don Pettit aboard ISS, during one of the 18 dawns per day.

At the moment, mansion-sized Asteroid 2024-YR4 has a one-in-fifty chance of hitting Earth in the next eight years.

Now might be a bad time to reduce spending on Science. Just sayin’.
