@chockenberry This is my fear, too. Their elections can’t be trusted so they’re going to do something about it here in the US.

Record turnout, landslide victory for the people of Hungary!

Congratulations!

Comet R3 (PanSTARRS) Brightens
Image Credit & Copyright: José Rodrigues

Explanation: Comet R3 is brightening rapidly -- will it survive? C/2025 R3 (PanSTARRS) has been slowly brightening and extending an ion tail since its discovery last year. This shedding mountain of dirty ice puts on its best sky show this month, though, because it passes its closest to both the Sun (April 19) and the Earth (April 25). The featured image, showing R3 already sporting a tail extending over 10 degrees, was taken two nights ago from Sion, Switzerland with the big mountain Bietschhorn on the left. Comet R3 will be visible during mid-April before sunrise. Although the future brightness of any comet is hard to predict, the brightness of R3 makes it already a good camera comet and it may become visible to the unaided eye in the next week. Comet R3's physical future is also unknown because, like Comet A1 (MAPS) earlier this month, it may disintegrate when it passes its closest to the Sun. Or it may live to leave the Solar System.

Per The New Yorker, the reorg “shuts down the Service’s nine regional offices and relocates its headquarters from Washington, D.C., to Salt Lake City” where the “Service will now have, instead of a regional headquarters, a ‘state coördinator’ in the capitals of states where it has large holdings, and I think it’s safe to predict that these people will service connections to the interests that value timber more highly than those that value, say, water filtration, much less backpacking.”
