Truly fascinating. I zoomed in with my Mastcam-Z camera on a Phobos solar eclipse. This detailed video can help scientists on my team better understand the Martian moon’s orbit and how its gravity affects the interior of Mars, including its crust & mantle. go.nasa.gov/3OqRl73 pic.twitter.com/q45H…

I’ve been “pedal to the metal” lately, focused on my drive to the upcoming delta. But I’ve also spotted a few interesting things along the way: look closely and you’ll see part of the parachute and capsule I rode in on. Definitely wouldn’t be where I am without them! pic.twitter.com/JyJL…

Lootboxes, at the very least, need to tell you the drop rate before you open. Imagine if every single time you went to the bathroom, you didn't know if you were gonna poop or pee. So you stand up and the poop just falls out your butt onto the ground. That's what lootboxes are.

@thoughton No, sorry, we don't have such a feature. We think that it's not a good idea to embed fullscreen websites on other sites, and we highly recommend simply mapping a domain or a subdomain if you want the visitors to see the full version of a Readymag project.

A problem with May’s article in today’s Telegraph is she assumes the country will ‘come back together’ if her deal passes. This is nonsense. One obvious point: the causes of brexit were not in general anything to do with the EU, therefore leaving it will solve nothing.

My 3 year old deploys politeness as a weapon. “You need to be asleep now.” “No thank you, dadda. I am awake thank you.” And then talks to himself, half awake and half asleep, like a child in a horror movie. “No. I am Ash. I am a little boy.”
