Fascinating: Arp 220 is the closest Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxy (ULIRG) to Earth! It is the result of a collision between two galaxies which are now in the process of merging (Credit: NASA, ESA, the Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA)-ESA/Hubble Collaboration, and A. Evans)

Wow! The Radical transparency is overwhelming!

Orion nebula, M42, last night. Fairly clear sky before the next storm and no moon. Never saw this by eye. Wow

Washington, D.C.'s performing arts center was named for President Kennedy after his assassination. But his vision for the arts as a cornerstone of democracy was shared by Eisenhower and Johnson. n.pr/48PMFnC

For your yellow collection. Flannel Bush from Venice, CA 5/7/2025

Dandelions are are one of the first flowers to bloom each spring, one of the last to bloom each fall, are good sources of nectar and pollen for native bees, honeybees and butterflies, flourish anywhere but deep shade, and are truly beautiful. I think they are only spurned because they are so common.

My grandson picked these for me🥰🥰
