38 Hours with the M81 Group

Over 38 hours, a garden #telescope captured the M81 #galaxy group. Dominant M81 boasts spiral arms and a bright core, while cigar-shaped M82 shows intense star formation due to their billion-year gravitational tussle. Eventually, they'll merge into one galaxy. The image also features NGC 3077 and distant integrated flux nebulae from our Milky Way.

You see, if you change definitions, a Recession through a Depression is just going through an Economic Session.

Put a down payment on that box of potatoes you’ve been dreaming of.

Don’t forget to donate the box to your domesticated homeless, out there. #Canada #US Our #Planet

So, if I'm understanding this right, the best *plan* the #elite can come up with is destroying the #planet by strip mining it of every available resource so .0000000001% of the population can have more #YachtMoney?

Does that about capture "the plan"?

Dwarf #Planet, Bright Spot

Dawn spacecraft captures a close-up of Ceres' northern hemisphere and bright spots, possibly icy regions, from its 13,600 km RC3 orbit. As Dawn prepares to move closer, Pluto awaits New Horizons' visit in July.

Does anyone remember the golden #Voyager record which sent encoded information about our own life form on voyages in the hope that an #alien life form would find it and decode it to communicate with us?

Now, for centuries, we have had a #planet right under our noses that looks like those rings are a giant #record

Could someone develop a record player that big to find out if it is coded #information left behind by an alien life form to communicate with us?

Space is full of great views to enjoy your lunch too :D

The #Feeling of deeply #Love is something very #Strange.
It's not only that it makes us behave like completely #Idiots.
No, in the #Extreme we will also freely give up our own #Life for this other #Special #Human only to make sure that there's a better #Chance of #Survival for them.
If this feeling among you and your significant other is #Mutual, then consider yourself/s the luckiest #People on the #Planet because this mutuality is very, very #Rare.
