image of solar eclipse showing a dark circular moon with 2 bright pink prominences on either side and a fringe of white corona surrounding it.

Another film negative scan. This image is of the great eclipse on July 11, 1991. I was on a cruise ship in the Gulf of California, making photography difficult. The prints showed little coronal structure or details of the amazing prominences. Digital enhancement brought out both! #astrophotography

the question was not meant for you.
reposting so the clueless ones will wake UP!
No, I no longer think the land is for everyone.
Look around at the disrespect people that live in the USA
have for the land. Plastic, cans, cigarette butts.
trash etc.☮️

Know a lot about it & I've talked a lot about it. So the answer is yes to your question. I know about the situations in our history. And I am going to say this now though. Reparations notwithstanding, which I believe in, this fucking place is for everybody. Go ahead and try and breathe on the moon.

where have you been ?
1980's 🤬 the Con .NY city.

I'm watching @maddow.bsky.social like I do every Monday and her gfaw that Russia is helping Iran while Trump cutting economic pressure on Russia is simultaneously outrageous and expected. Yet, the idea of Trump calling Putin from the golf course knowing Russia is helping Iran says it all.

if this involves giving $$$. No thank you.
I have known for years how awful many men,
and women are.
Mob mentality.

Court records reveal gutting of DHS oversight: ‘Incredibly dangerous’ White House claims watchdogs perform ‘all required functions’, but number of deaths in custody at 20-year high

Until we have real midterms, we have been conquered. We are being threatened with the loss of life and liberty every fucking day and so many beautiful humans are paying for this devastation with their lives. If we do not have midterms, there will not be a United States at all in 20 years. Gone.

Yes, It IS!
As long as people feed their minds with
the chaos around them, they will absorb that dark energy.
Like a swarm of insects.
Break away, David Bowie , 🎶 Dance . Let's Dance.

The higher the frequency of JOY!
Lets Dance! tune out noise.
