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.

Blue @KedroHeyo 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.12:49 PM - Apr 16, 2024
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

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.

For the #SpoutibleJukebox - a piano medley from the soundtrack of a personal favorite game (and the only RPG I've ever played through) #MassEffect !
Includes "Leaving Earth", "I Was Lost Without You", 2.6M+ views and counting, wow. 🚀

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:

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.

Bren @Bren_ieanGlorious image. Most of the text is way over my head, no pun intended but that image is not losing my interest. Thank you!07:32 PM - Mar 27, 2024

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.

I am a Man of Constant Sorrow. by Dan Tyminski.
Been a while since the #SpoutibleJukebox got some new tunes added. This version was popularized, of course, in O Brother Where Art Thou. #folk
For in this world, I'm bound to ramble.

Haven't forgotten you, #JWST 🤔💭🌌
"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?

Here in #LosAngeles - an unfinished skyrise, abandoned by a Chinese developer in 2019 that is now getting liquidated (it's complex and could relate to Trump's election + China's eco-push), got the #graffititowers treatment.
