he/him, standing with 🏳️⚧️, 🏳️🌈 and 🇺🇦 “it is better to disable one streetlight than to curse the light pollution” 90% Reply Guy and shitposting, 7% science and astronomy pix, 3% attempts at humor. You’ve been warned. Bio: scientist since I was 4 years old, and still loving it. Header pic is a partially eclipsed moon in a field with a few stars.

Ignorance is not a bliss - it's a missed opportunity! I'm a street dog from Madagascar. Not entirely white. Not entirely (but mostly) friendly. Not afraid of the big dogs. Rarely bark at others - unless on duty. Learned to speak last year. I let my human do the work. He's into breaking 'software' (never smelt or tasted that), feeding and walking me ...
Isle of Wight based picture seller. I run a small gallery selling my husband's landscape photography. Previously I worked as a project worker in a centre for the homeless and rootless and later in homeless prevention/tenancy support. I tend to post photos of the Isle of Wight , boost other photos that appeal to me, share what music I'm (and others I follow) are listening to. In my case it's usually rock! Give me nature, animals, music, vegan food, Coventry City FC and I'm happy!

#introduction Irish artist living in Brazil. I paint and draw every day, sometimes with friends, organized groups, sometimes life models. A lot of what I do is just out of my head. I am a human producing human, handmade, art. I sell originals and prints #FediGiftShop.
'This Is My Glasgow' is a photographic project from Colin M. Drysdale, author of 'Glasgow Uncovered: 18 Walks Through its Past, Present and Future' - available from all good bookshops. Unless otherwise stated, all photos are my own.
Astronomer, researcher at Helsinki University, discoverer of dozens of planets, notably the candidate habitable world #Proximab around the nearest star to the Sun, Proxima Centauri. Made of stardust. Climate breakdown could be the solution to Fermi paradox. There is no planet B. The account may contain incurable doses of science.

The White House announced a plan to cancel over 50 #space missions as part of a devastating 46% cut to #NASA #science.
The proposal would likely eliminate thousands of jobs at an agency that has just launched astronauts to the #Moon for the first time in decades, and dozens of other space missions would see their operations reduced or slowly wound down to a halt.
The following missions are to be cancelled:
-
The Habitable Worlds Observatory being built to search for #life on dozens of Earth-like planets beyond our Solar System while addressing fundamental questions about our #Universe.
-
OSIRIS-APEX capitalizes on the exceptionally rare 2029 Earth flyby of the potentially hazardous #asteroid #Apophis to advance planetary defense strategies and reveal how Earth’s #gravity alters an asteroid’s surface and interior.
-
The ExoMars Rosalind Franklin rover will deliberately search for signs of life on #Mars by analyzing the composition of samples collected from as deep as 2 meters below the surface.
-
The DAVINCI mission is an atmospheric probe that will be deployed to our sister planet, #Venus, and provide the first detailed measurements of the composition and chemistry of its #atmosphere.
-
Initially focusing on #Jupiter’s interior, atmosphere, and aurora, #Juno is already orbiting Jupiter and has expanded during its extended mission to be a full system explorer capable of investigating the Galilean satellites, rings, inner moons, radiation belts, and boundaries of Jupiter’s magnetosphere.
-
VERITAS will create unprecedented, global, high-resolution datasets of Venus designed to answer a fundamental question for rocky #planets: how did Earth and her twin Venus evolve into two entirely different examples of planetary #habitability?

🚀 We just sent a team of humans to the moon and safely home.
Not one bit of generative AI was used or needed.
You don't need it in your office or organization, either.
We can do great things without pillaging public resources and funds for a scam.
