Evidently I have been suspended from X. I can look but not forward or comment. I don't know why; perhaps I was intemperate. They tell me that I can petition to be unsuspected. I wonder why I would bother. X is like yelling at the stars. Nothing is accomplished. Anyone else here have that experience?

I've about had it with the Senate emotionalism. Judiciary is a MAJOR committee assignment. We need hard chargers, with good legal minds, not Sociology & Rehabilitation Counseling degrees. We see every day the results of Jeff Flake, Thom Tillis, John Cornyn, and yes, Lindsey Graham. Vote for Ralph Norman to get Lindsey Graham's sister OUT of the US Senate and OFF the Judiciary Committee!

Explanation: The Dark Doodad Nebula drifts through southern skies, a tantalizing target for binoculars toward the small constellation Musca, The Fly. A dusty interstellar cloud, it's seen against rich starfields just south of the Coalsack Nebula and the Southern Cross. Stretching for about 3 degrees across this telescopic field of view, the Dark Doodad is punctuated near its southern tip (upper right) by yellowish globular star cluster NGC 4372. Of course NGC 4372 roams the halo of our Milky Way galaxy, a background object some 20,000 light-years away and only by chance along our line-of-sight to the Dark Doodad. About...

The Douglas DC-3 was mass-produced during World War II. Today, one of the few still remaining transports passengers in Colombia’s jungle.We were cruising at eight thousand feet, low enough to make out individual trees in the rainforest below, when a towering wall of midafternoon cumulus arose before us.There was no way around it — it was many miles wide — and no way over it because we were in an 84-year-old Douglas DC-3, arguably the most legendary plane ever mass-produced yet one without a pressurized cabin, which limited how high we could fly.As the plane and the storm closed in...
