We had a powerful show of solidarity with our Palestinian sisters and brothers in Dublin yesterday. Israel's genocide, apartheid and ethnic cleansing rage on and our government still refuses to impose sanctions and end our complicity. We go on. #FreePalestine #SanctionsNow

Timelapse of the Southern night sky captured alongside my telescope imaging session.
While visiting the dark and beautiful skies of Ensenada, Puntarenas, I decided to record a timelapse of the southern horizon as my telescope tracked nebulae.

"It began as a mistake. Philip Glass wrote a single piece, Music in Twelve Parts, the title referring to the number of lines of counterpoint in the score. He played it for a friend, who, as he recalls, responded by saying, 'That’s very beautiful; what are the other 11 parts going to be like?'"

I think it would be really helpful if everyone posting their very cool takes on the state of music journalism this week would also encourage people to subscribe to worker-owned outlets & support independent writers trying to make new things happen

We've never seen this level of detail, as the star's remains stream back out to interstellar space. Our Sun will look something like this 7 billion years from now. 🧪🔭
