Tänään luonnosta löytyneitä asioita:

- sadepisaraiset lumikellot
- melonin näköinen Finstones-kivi
- virtajohto
- kenkä (ei päässyt galleriaan)

Ensin mainitut olivat samassa paikassa metsässä kuin viime vuonnakin, toiseksi mainitun ajattelin piilottaa seuraavalla visiitillä Kivinokkaan. Viimeksi mainitut vein lähimmälle roskikselle. #lähiluonto #itähelsinki #finstones #kevät #löydöt

”’Se, että hanhet nyt sattuvat ruokailemaan pelloilla taas johtuu siitä, että ihminen on ottanut käyttöönsä kaikki ne luonnonbiotoopit, joissa linnut voisivat ruokailla. Tämä on muuten koko meneillään olevan ja yhä kiihtyvän luontokadon perussyy’, Knuuttila taustoittaa.”

This is not acceptable, plain and simple.

As I suspected, media are getting very confused about that #Artemis II Earth image, thanks to NASA’s poor original captioning.

This BBC article shows it as “Hello, world” without knowing / noting that it’s the dark side, illuminated by moonlight.

Then lower in the article it says NASA later released another image, this time showing Earth in near complete darkness with city lights.

Edit: not exactly the same image, but 19 sec apart with different exposures.

"If Trump wants to steal Greenland, he doesn't need tanks or missiles. He can just tell Microsoft and Oracle to brick the entire Danish state and all of its key firms, blocking their access to their email archives, files, databases, and other key administrative tools."

"Massive budget cuts for US science proposed again by Trump administration."
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-01105-7

"For the second year in a row, US President Donald Trump has proposed significant cuts to the budgets of major US science agencies…[The plan] includes a ban on using federal funds for subscriptions and publishing fees for some academic journals…Some of the steepest cuts would be made to the National Science Foundation (#NSF) and the Environmental Protection Agency (#EPA): the budgets of both would fall more than 50% in 2027 compared to their current levels…The budget for the US National Institutes of Health [#NIH] would drop 13%…The budget would increase funding for…the military, which would receive US $1.5 trillion, a 44% increase."
