Animated gif of Juno/JIRAM 3.5-micron observations of Io from December 27, 2024. This gif covers roughly 45 minutes of time as Juno passed Io at a distance of 74,444 km. The eruption at West Illyrikon was so intense that it saturated the detector and caused internal reflections within JIRAM's optics

From the No Kings parade here in Tucson

Car with signs about what democracy looks like and solidarity with neighbors
Car with signs about how hate doesn’t make us great and to keep one’s hands off science people and country
Car with no kings signs
Car with let them eat cake sign

Did you know that as a pitcher, there is no limit to how many strikeouts you can get in an inning? Just a fun weird baseball fact.

Gritty is already an astronaut. He is alien who found a liking to human hockey. That isn’t a costume. He just showed up one day.

Sign of a good commentary team. Switch to watching the Cubs-Rangers game. See the Rangers have a pitcher named Leiter. I start wondering, “hey, I wonder if he’s related to Al Leiter?” Immediately they start talking about his father, Al Leiter.

I'm with Stephen King on this one: the 60s are worse if JFK hadn't been shot. the Voting Rights Act and Civil Rights Act fail. JFK gets stuck in Vietnam as he keeps trying to show that he's "tough on Communism". Apollo 11 lands on the Moon 2 years late and the Apollo program is cancelled after 13.

Well, hello there little fella. Juno's Stellar Reference Unit captured this view of Thebe from a distance of 5,000 km on May 1, 2026 during PJ83. science.nasa.gov/photojournal...

small moon on the edge of a dark frame. There is a crater on the terminator, the boundary between day and night on Thebe.

It's at this moment, Timmy realized that adults, and even the President, can be complete dumbasses.

Thankfully that's a two seater because my shoulder hurts just from watching that. Great shots!

A story in two news alerts

Two phone notifications from AP News. One suggesting that Maine Gov. Janet Mills is an underdog and that she's used to being underestimate as she runs for the Senate at age 78. The other says she is ending her Senate bid. These alerts are separated by 13 hours in time.
