3:30 PM ET

 

Oh sure. Couldn't grab a UNU to save my life yesterday when it was at 3pm. Now it's at 3:30 and I have to be at the bus stop. Doubt the kids are going to understand that mom couldn't make it because she had to predict the Oscars.

 

So, can we repeat the UNU's?

 

It's supposed to be a long one too. Not sure how long yesterdays went for. But that's a lot of categories to vote on. Maybe pick them up early from school so you can be home in time? lol

 

It says 35 minutes. I'll be gone right in the middle of it. Threw it back and am crossing my fingers for earlier or later tomorrow.

NASA's TRAPPIST-1e Travel poster

.. I am seriously considering downloading the raw, getting it printed, and getting it framed.

Spoiler

If you want to make a poster.. wait for the website to stop crashing and download the raw: https://exoplanets.nasa.gov/trappist1/#Poster

 

That's cool. Not sure why they made it into such a big deal though.

 

My Noah is broken

 

Because it IS a big deal. Not only do we have 7 earth sized planets but 3 habitable zone planets. We haven't ever seen anything like this before.

 

Damnit this effen UNU is elusive AF

 

Yesterday's was just about 35 minutes.

Well yea, but... I mean the existence of those things was all but guaranteed. I mean it's cool that they were able to confirm it but it was only ever a matter of time.

 

Stole my idea.

They appear to do this often: https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/visions-of-the-future/

 

Oh I meant the big To Do with the announcement not the poster.
