Adding a journalist to a top secret government group chat about dropping bombs *IS* the kind of thing people who aren’t super politically literate can understand and find shocking/notable/disqualifying. Dems should seize on this and never ever let it go. I hope to hear about it in a decade

@jetcitystar.bsky.social any chance we can get these guys into a weekly aviation chat if that’s still happening!? Saw the talk, and it was FANTASTIC!! They would love to spread their work and talk to the community!

Glad to see that @darkskyintl.bsky.social has identified Cottonwood Canyon State Park in #Oregon as a Dark Sky Park.

UPDATE: New Date for the #SEAAEROSPACEBBQ
Seattle Aerospace BBQ
Saturday April 5th, 2025

Why the change of dates?

A fantastic account to follow here on Blue Sky is Marcia Smith of @spacepolicyonline.bsky.social. She covers everything to do with government policies for the space industry/military/and beyond.
Definitely on my daily list of people to see what they’ve published.

Recently saw the #aurora, Northern Lights. Really cool!
