If you’re ever wondering which side of a galaxy is closer, just look for the dust lanes. That’s the side that’s closer. (The dark lines on the disk are dust lanes)
Andromeda Galaxy (M31) located ~2.5 Mly away in Andromeda. M31 contains over a trillion stars and spans ~152,100 ly
Satellite galaxies M110 (~2.67 Mly) and M32 (~2.46 Mly) also visible
Decent night for stargazing

I’m trying to use my voice recognition to play Lux Aeterna Requiem for a Dream, what do I end up searching for? “Looks at hernia requiem for a dream”. AI is the future.

Can I suggest that Everyone in the US right now, especially Minnesotans, start wearing very visible American Flags? The image of ICE actively attacking the American flag will be a wake up call to many. #ice #minnesota

Hey America! Just in case you haven’t realised it yet, 2026 will be the year of massive civil disobedience. You guys need to stand up for each other and stop sitting by and watching people and institutions get picked off one by one. Go cause some good trouble. Before it’s too late.

We’re seeing the sort of gun violence we only expect in America play out at our beautiful Bondi Beach. All SydneySiders are in shock and I think there will be growing anger over the next few days. I’m personally disgusted, angry and upset.

I attended the Southern Hemisphere Black T-shirt Convention tonight at Accor Stadium in Sydney with over 70,000 people. It’s the old Olympic Stadium, …, hang on, I’m being told it was the Metallica concert and I might have been the only person in a floral shirt. #metallica #sydney #m72

@profaliceroberts.bsky.social thanks for the wonderful show last night at the State Theatre. It’s truly an amazing journey that we’ve been on from cells to civilization. A real treat to see you bring it live!
