As @nasa works toward a permanent presence on the Moon, the Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative, announced #OTD in 2018, is a vital part of the plan. Through CLPS, companies competitively bid to bring experiments and supplies to the Moon! go.nasa.gov/3ASxubU

Burping baby stars! (Really)

Young stars often shine in bright bursts as they consume material from surrounding disks. These luminous eruptions are signs of feeding binges as the growing stars devour material from disks of gas and dust that surround them. go.nasa.gov/3H12Tgl

Regulators, mount up! 🌟

Data from @ChandraXray and @SOFIAtelescope reveal a star cluster that regulates itself—allowing only a limited set of stars to grow before expelling most of the gas from the system. This process likely slows new star creation: go.nasa.gov/3Vz1GRg

ah. Ok. It’s a little strange with the gamepass EA games on PC so I wasn’t sure if there was an extra loader involved since there’s that “extra EULA” message on their games. Thanks!


Sonified stars ⭐🎵

This sonification brings an image of the star cluster Pismis 24 to life through sound. Scientists assigned pitches to elements of the image so we can experience its data in a new way!

Curious about stars? The Sun is a main sequence star, which means that it converts hydrogen into helium in its core in a process that keeps it from collapsing. It’ll become a red giant in about 5 billion years when it runs out of hydrogen. Learn more: universe.nasa.gov/stars/types/

They Might Be Giants have two songs about the process of the sun. Which one is more accurate describing the process?

On flight day 13 of the #Artemis I mission, @NASA_Orion reached its maximum distance from Earth, 268,563 miles away from home.

Orion has now traveled farther than any other spacecraft designed to carry humans to deep space & safely return them to Earth. go.nasa.gov/3Fd8hf1

It's not even that far. You can still see where you launched it from.


The second set of International @Space_Station Roll Out Solar Arrays were delivered on Nov. 27. Once installed, they will be part of the plan to provide a 20-30% increase in power for station research and operations. Find out how iROSA tech got its start: go.nasa.gov/3DyCcvQ

The USS Hornet (CV-12) was commissioned #OTD in 1943. 26 years later on Nov. 28, 1969, the Hornet delivered the crew of Apollo 12 inside the Mobile Quarantine Facility to Pearl Harbor.

Which other Apollo mission did the USS Hornet serve as the prime recovery carrier for?

Portal with RTX releases on December 8th gamingonlinux.com/2022/11/port…

this screenshot has me the opposite of excited, videos also didn't help. It looks like they found too few surfaces to justify the RTX shine on, and then decided to go overboard and apply it to absolutely unneeded surfaces and places.

Fun fact. The writer of this toot and the HST were both launched on the same day. 4/24/1990. We are forever linked

And how many of those stars are dead? That is what trips e out the most about space is how vast it is. So vast that light's speed seems like a crawl and it dawns on you that every time you look into the sky you are looking at millions of years into the past.

Great!! Finally someone recognized that SW companies infiltrated public schools thus protecting their oligopoly.
in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

These companies have systematically showed over the last 6 years that they don't want to — and simply won't — play by the rules. Alright then. It's now time for Europe to acknowledge their decision, and to simply move on to better products. Good riddance, and please don't come back 🥰 😁

The southeastern shore of the Hudson Bay forms a near perfectly curved shoreline.

Called the Nastapoka Arc, this curved shoreline has prompted an ongoing debate over its formation.

1) Continental collision 2 billion years ago: Trans-Hudson orogeny (most likely explanation)
2) Ancient impact structure, but no evidence of material so not likely
3) Ancient impact crater with so much geological processes since, evidence of impact is lost.
4)Circular tectonic plate on a continent made it pull apart like a puzzle.
