"Vega also has an exciting future ahead, because it will become the Pole Star in the year 14,000 CE, thanks to the Earth’s precession. Who knows what the world will have become by then?"

Perfect for your 4th of July weekend cookouts: A soundscape of the recurring nightmare of Trump 2.0, where spectacle, mind control, racism, nationalism, fascism, drone on; dissolving into the eternal night.

Between constellations Cassiopeia and Perseus, the Double Cluster (NGC 869 & NGC 884) sparkles with 7,500-year-old light, as a satellite streaks through orbit. #Night #Stars #DoubleCluster #NGC884 #NGC869 #Cluster #Space #Astro #NightWalk #Sky #NightSky #Nuit #Noche #Nacht #PineBarrens #Pinelands

Listening to the owls hooting through the cold night air.

... And over all eternal Wisdom broods, In silent watch above the shining maze, And from the outposts of their solitudes Binds all in chorus of majestic praise. — From ‘The Winter Firmament,’ by Elizabeth Donaldson #Stelliferous #TheRebelStargazer #Stargazern #Stars #Night #Dark #NightSkies
