A mash-up of #JamesWebb and #Hubble - the spiral galaxy NGC 1566. Note the alluring blue haze at the galactic core on the #JWST side.

JWST, the bottom-right side, uses near- and mid-infrared light. Hubble, the top-left portion, uses visible and ultraviolet light. #CosmicRelief #space

A big bopper I spoke with recently suggested adding paywalls to some of the VotingInfoHQ.com sections.

The idea's appreciated, as $ drives politics and it's unlikely that established, DC Dems would fund an outsider org like this one.

But it goes against the heart of the HQ. Access is everything.

Ah so it turns out Spoutible allows 3 accounts per phone number, and I don't have burners ready to go. ( @VotingInfoHQ @Kedro @PeaceAndResist )

So the space catharsis / cosmic relief will run on this handle. Caretaking has gone from full time to round the clock, so it's easier for me anyway rn.

Heyo All, hope this finds you well. I've decided to open @JWST to house the space-themed posts and will nestle that as cosmic relief in the Civic Square on VotingInfoHQ.com.

I've spoken with some bigger players over time, but for now the HQ remains a solo op - which means anything goes (for now)!

Mount Erebus: the world's southernmost volcano on Earth and Antarctica's highest active volcano.

Erebus fires out about $6,000 of gold each day (around 80 grams, 20 micrometers or less at a time).

And yes, there's an active lava lake in its summit crater, since ~ 1972. #NatureIsATrip

If you ever see this equation out in the Wild, just remember the answer is easy as pie.

Because the answer's Pi. All you have to do is memorize the equation and wait to impress someone, one day, maybe!

Keeping the theme for the #SpoutibleJukebox - here is one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard.
#ArvoPart - Spiegel im Spiegel (Mirror in the Mirror)

Contemplative, empowering and calming, I don't know why but this song grips my heart.

Yep, this is a new one! That 2022 image was of M87's supermassive black hole - and also from the EHT. This one is wayyy bigger too (6.5 billion Suns, says Space.com).

Great recall, here's that blurry / awesome chaos:

Is this a new image? I remember the photo from 2022, and it was far more blurry! This is so cool!

Absolutely, glad to share! I have had to read up on a lot to kind of understand it myself 😂.

Always here for puns - intended or not, by the way.

My favorite theory (that probably doesn't hold) is that black holes are doorways, on the other side is a "connected" white hole somewhere else.

Glorious image. Most of the text is way over my head, no pun intended but that image is not losing my interest. Thank you!

Mesmerized by this first image depicting polarized light and magnetic fields around #SagittariusA * (Sgr A*) - that supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy.

Sgr A* is about 4.3 million times the mass of our Sun, just a littttle bit bigger.

Been a while since the #SpoutibleJukebox got some new tunes added. This version was popularized, of course, in O Brother Where Art Thou. #folk

This is, apparently, the global distribution of penguins mapped. Maps and naps are just so great. Where was I? Penguin census, right. I'm not sure how to verify this info so I'll just believe it whole-heartedly.

"IRAS 23385 and IRAS 2A (not visible in this image) were targets for a recent research effort...to discover that the key ingredients for making potentially habitable worlds are present in early-stage protostars, where planets have not yet formed."

Hot stuff.

Drummed up some new options for the Civic Square art, the color scheme's definitely improved. Do any of these stand out as a good option for the new main #art ?

After settling on one, will need to do some editing to make it not feel too busy.

4. Nail-Biting. MONTHS! And #Voyager1 finally responded to a space-poke from NASA Command with a decodeable message.

Voyager 1 apparently asked: You up?
