Pillars of Creation AKA Eagle nebula/M16
Another ambitious project. I have shot this target previously at lower focal length but wanted to get real close to the Pillars so used Celestron C11 at 1950mm pushing the limits of autoguiding. Each Sub 300sec in SHO.Flickr

A judge has forced Elon Musk to disclose who helped him buy Twitter.
And to no one's surprise: Two rich Russians from Putin's inner circle were part of the deal. Their names are Petr Aven and Vadim Moshkovich, and allegedly they are related to companies on the list.
And clearly, EU parliamentarian Guy Verhofstadt is not having it.

Obviously, indirect Russian relations in itself is not proof of Russian influence.
I will do some more digging.
Elon Musk was just forced to reveal who really owns X. Here’s the list
Organizations linked to Bill Ackman, Larry Ellison, and Sean Combs, a.k.a. Diddy or Puff Daddy, were mentioned in the filing.Eleanor Pringle (Fortune)

A few were down like one beautiful pink dahlia, but for the most part, the flowers survived.
Our world is very small now, but I do believe we get just as much enjoyment from the flowers we grow ourselves as we would seeing them anywhere else in the universe.
We all found comfort in the fact that most of our flowers weathered the storm.
Now, off to surprise my husband. Every day, he requests bacon and eggs for breakfast and gets something approved on his diet instead, but today, he gets the real deal.
He will be so excited.

Bythotrephes longimanus (cederströemi), is called the Spiny Water Flea for obvious reasons. It is an invasive species introduced to #GreatLakes in the 1980s from Europe. They are a large (1.5 cm) and highly predaceous #cladoceran #zooplankton that eat 75% of their weight/d. They peak late in the year to huge densities at times. While they compete with planktivorous fishes, they are also a desired prey for fishes like Alewife and Yellow Perch.

Build with Nextcloud!✨
New developer features in Nextcloud Hub 8 from new SDKs, updates to the External Apps Framework, distributed AI compute, and so much more!
How can anyone be sure your app interfaces will remain stable from version to version, so you won't destroy important apps just by upgrading Nextcloud?
You already destroyed even featured apps like "News" and "Social." Nobody wants to expend effort for apps you'll discard on a junk heap simply by failing to acknowledge regression bugs. How can we trust your interfaces are worth learning now?
Espadas de plomo

Cuenta la leyenda que el emperador romano Cómodo gustaba de bajar a la arena del circo a batirse en duelo con los gladiadores. Enfundado en una ornamentada armadura, se hacía llamar 'Hércules reencarnado', y como Hércules, cuando su espada golpeaba los gladios de sus rivales estos estallaban en mil pedazos ante el impacto, ante el asombro y la algarabía del populacho.

No se puede ganar una partida si el otro tiene las cartas marcadas. Al final hay que romper la baraja y construir alternativas en otros lugares más verdes, lejos de nazis y trolls y bots porno.
O puedes quedarte a "dar la batalla" con tu espada de plomo.
