@Theiss9030 Most likely, yes. But I'd like to see a waymo try. The cars aren't big and can do anything human drivers can, with better safety stats. The truth is we can't electrify or automate our way out of car dependence. It's no substitute for top tier public transport.

STS-114 astronaut Steve Robinson completed the first in-orbit repair of a space shuttle's heat shield 20 years ago on Aug 3. Tethered at the end of the @Space_Station's robotic arm, he carefully removed protruding gap fillers from Discovery's heat-shielding tiles.

Is the Helix Nebula looking at you? No, not in any biological sense, but it does look quite like an eye. The Helix Nebula is so named because it also appears that you are looking down the axis of a helix. In actuality, it is now understood to have a surprisingly complex geometry, including radial filaments and extended outer loops. The Helix Nebula (aka NGC 7293) is one of brightest and closest examples of a planetary nebula, a gas cloud created at the end of the life of a Sun-like star. The remnant central stellar core, destined to become a white dwarf star, glows in light so energetic it causes the previously expelled gas to fluoresce. The featured picture, taken in red, green, and blue but highlighted by light emitted primarily by hydrogen was created from 12 hours of exposure through a personal telescope located in Greece. A close-up of the inner edge of the Helix Nebula shows complex gas knots the origin of which are still being researched. Image Credit & Copyright: George Chatzifrantzis

I was at a police incident and a cop was telling people to never pick up folded money on the ground because it may have fentanyl in it. They are correct. If you find money on the ground, call me and I’ll properly dispose of it.

Have you ever watched a lightning storm in awe? You're not alone. Details of what causes lightning are still being researched, but it is known that inside some clouds, internal updrafts cause collisions between ice and snow that slowly separate charges between cloud tops and bottoms. The rapid electrical discharges that are lightning soon result. Lightning usually takes a jagged course, rapidly heating a thin column of air to about three times the surface temperature of the Sun. The resulting shock wave starts supersonically and decays into the loud sound known as thunder. On average, around the world, about 6,000 lightning bolts occur between clouds and the Earth every minute. Pictured in July 2019 in a two-image composite, lightning stems from communication antennas near the top of Volcán de Agua (Volcano of Water) in Guatemala.

History was made 75 years ago! On July 24, 1950, the United States launched the Bumper 8 two-stage rocket from a special place on the Atlantic coast of central Florida called Cape Canaveral. It was the first launch from the facility that, for the past 75 years, has seen thousands of rockets take to the skies, destined for Earth orbit, the Moon, planets, and beyond.

BREAKING: WSJ reporting that in May, US Attorney General Pam Bondi told Trump that he is among several names listed throughout the Epstein files. Surprising absolutely no one, they always knew Trump is in the Epstein files, and they support him anyway. Epstein is a known child sex trafficker, and knowing this full well, MAGAs continue to support him. Speaker Johnson literally shut down the House to prevent having to vote on this. This is who they are. Horrific.

What is going on with this galaxy? NGC 2685 is a confirmed polar ring galaxy - a rare type of galaxy with stars, gas and dust orbiting in rings perpendicular to the plane of a flat galactic disk. The bizarre configuration could be caused by the chance capture of material from another galaxy by a disk galaxy, with the captured debris strung out in a rotating ring. Still, observed properties of NGC 2685 suggest that the rotating helix structure is remarkably old and stable. In this sharp view of the peculiar system also known as Arp 336 or the Helix galaxy, the strange, perpendicular rings are easy to trace as they pass in front of the galactic disk, along with other disturbed outer structures. NGC 2685 is about 50,000 light-years across and 40 million light-years away in the constellation of the Great Bear (Ursa Major). Image Credit & Copyright: Stefan Thrun

Since a lot of people are confused about what this is, every telescope here is owned by a person. Each person can log in remotely to use their telescope to capture photos of space from our dark skies!
