Did an emergency episode with @astroramiemad.bsky.social who spoke about what his family has gone through in the last week and expressed his trauma. Take a deep breath and listen. Syrians must reckon with where our current government is falling short, not brush it aside. youtu.be/J9JwpybVSb0

This is an article I wish I could've written, but halfway through it would've been laden with cursing and random letters as I pounded on my keyboard with my fists.

We are continuing to process data from receiver sources individually. Additional processing confirms #AI171 departed using the full length of Runway 23 at Ahmedabad. RWY 23 is 11,499 feet long. The aircraft backtracked to the end of the runway before beginning its take off roll.

Looking good! Seeing as @esaearth.esa.int still isn't active on Bluesky, here's an update for you from us, with love ✌️🫰 One last look at @eumetsat.int's MetOp-SG-A1 and Copernicus Sentinel-5A at Airbus in Toulouse before they leave for the launch site and fly on #Ariane6🚀 📸 @esa.int - S. Corvaja

Yup. All three of my professionally published books were stolen and used to create a machine that is turning people's minds into mush. Meta SUCKS. Delete your Facebook, Instagram, and Threads accounts. I already did a while back.

Nice thing about Arabic is that the word for Wave is (Maouja موجة) and the word for Particle is (Jousaim جسيم). Each starts with the letter the other ends with; makes niceashup Jousaimaouja جسيموجة or Maoujousaim موجسيم for Wavicle 😅 @neildegrassetyson.com @startalkradio.bsky.social

Blue Ghost is on the Moon! Images are coming in now from what appears to be the first fully successful commercial lunar lander. Over the next 2 weeks, it will drill, study lunar dust, and observe an eclipse of the Sun...by the Earth. 🧪🔭 fireflyspace.com/news/firefly...

Would the Moon still gravitationally slingshot the asteroid towards Earth? .. is that considered within the probability numbers? @neildegrassetyson.com @ukspaceagency.bsky.social

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

This Syrian child is the only survivor of an entire family that lost their lives as a result of the explosion of war remnants in one of the houses in the town of Al-Nayrab in the Idlib countryside, Syria.

The probability that asteroid 2024 YR4 might impact Earth in 2032 has risen to 2.8%. This means that it has surpassed the chance of impact briefly held by the much larger asteroid Apophis back in 2004. @esaoperations.esa.int ☄️🔭

The truth too unpalatable for politicians to lay out is if you cant see a GP, the likelihood is that it isn’t an immigrant – who is on average younger and healthier than you – ahead in the queue, but one of the growing number of older people. Me for @metrouk.bsky.social metro.co.uk/2025/02/19/n...

In 1748 BCE, a man feels so “discredited” by a woman named Amertum that he declares before 13 witnesses: “As long as she talks, I will not bring her into my house.” It’s a flawlessly preserved legal record of a bizarre situation.

Labour is upping the ante on anti-migrant politics just to learn that Farage & the Tories can always, always go further than them. It’s real people who are caught in the crossfire of politicians trying to outdo each other on toughness. How we treat people matters. #r4today

Astronomers in ancient Assyria were sometimes exempt from performing the “ilku”, or tax in the form of labour, and that wasn’t always a good thing. Those excused from state-mandated labour to carry on their scholarship in service of the king sometimes faced violence.

In this ancient Assyrian letter, astronomers complain that they can’t do their jobs or teach astronomy “because of the ilku-duty”, a type of taxation in the form of labour. “we cannot keep the watch of the king, and the pupils do not learn the scribal craft” cdli.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/artifacts/33...

Important update on Asteroid 2024 YR4: After another week of observations, the odds of this football-field size asteroid hitting Earth on Dec. 22, 2032 have now risen to 1.9% See, there is hope in the world ✨

The French President congratulates the President of the Syrian Arab Republic, Mr. Ahmad al-Shara, on his assumption of the presidency of the Republic via a phone call. The Syrian President received an invitation from the French President to visit France in the coming weeks.

Something else to thank EM for. "The sustained rate of daily reentries is unprecedented," says Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard Center for Astrophysics who tracks satellites. "They are retiring and incinerating about 4 or 5 Starlinks every day." @planet4589.bsky.social #astronomy

This is not only infuriating and mind-boggingly dunderheaded, it's possibly unconstitutional (depending on where the orders come from).

The impact date on Earth would be 22 December, 2032. This is where we've calculated the asteroid could hit (credit Daniel Bamberger/Wiki Commons). A lot of the risk is over water, but quite a few populated areas too in South America, Africa, and Asia. (4/x)

The chance of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting out planet in 2032 is now 1.5%, or 1 in 67. The OVERWHELMING likelihood is that the asteroid will miss Earth. But for the first time ever, we might have to seriously consider a deflection mission soon. Let me explain. 🧵 (1/x)

Well, it has to be this: youtu.be/bf725n9KILA?...

Losing NOAA would be devastating. Project 2025 authors want to get rid of it because it monitors climate change, and privatize the information it currently provides for free, so you'll have to buy information about the weather and the winds (imperative for mariners).

The SDF (PKK) militias targeted a vehicle carrying female workers in Manbij, rural Aleppo, as they were heading to work in agricultural fields. The vehicle was transporting more than 30 workers. The Syrian government must act swiftly to scorch the earth beneath the SDF terrorism.
