On the one hand, these communities used a loophole to skirt the state's requirements for having a dependable water supply.
On the other, signs and portents ya'll.

Mr skull is smart enough to only stare at the moon 😀

@carlysagan Plants with burned out retinas 😂

@carlysagan All this time I've been getting my energy from food like a chump 😂

TIL about 'sun gazing', a form of meditation that involves staring at the sun to supposedly absorb its energy directly. How did we reach this point???

The response to a dire report saying no new petroleum production was $1.5 trillion in new production by 2030. Goddammit.

Sending people and stuff to the Moon and beyond doesn't do any good if you can't talk to them. That's where NASA's Deep Space Network comes in, with ground stations in California, Madrid, and Canberra.

@carlysagan Getting as specific as space lasers says that you have a functional design written down somewhere

ESA's Swarm Charlie had to hastily avoid a small spacecraft yesterday - the 6th time for the year. It's getting real in LEO and it's only going to get worse.

I've been contributing to GLOBE Observer for several weeks now, part of which involves timing an observation to coincide with a monitoring satellite being overhead. Missing a pass because I'm at work feels like being too busy to hang out with a friend. Saying a whole lot about my job.

@carlysagan I can't take credit here. This fact comes from the observatory.

@DrFunkySpoon I mean on Jupiter, as a testament to the dish's sensitivity to radio waves.
