Here is a view of the planets Venus & Jupiter and conjunction
Venus is the one on the left and Jupiter is the one on the right. They're about half a degree apart here tonight on 1 March 2023 about 7:00 p.m. Full credit to @Alfredo47022777 on Twitter

The new finds were discovered in an ancient villa’s servant quarters.
The module completed the almost two-hour return from the ISS without a crew, landing in the Kazakh steppe on Tuesday afternoon, a few hundred kilometres from the Baikonur cosmodrome, home to Russia's space launches. The landing was broadcast online by the Russian space agency Roscosmos. A significant coolant leak was discovered in the capsule last December - caused by a 0.8-millimetre hole in its outer skin.
The burial site, found at Sagalassos in Turkey, contained 41 bent nails that were believed to have formed a magical barrier between the dead and the living.
Findings could help explain where Moon’s water is stored – and power future human habitations on the lunar surface
A field that has long grown tomatoes, peppers and onions now looks like a wind-whipped ocean as farmer Don Cameron seeks to capture the runoff from a freakishly wet year in California to replenish the groundwater basin that is his only source to water his crops. Taking some tomatoes out of production for a year is an easy choice if it means boosting future water supplies for his farm about 35 miles (56 kilometers) southwest of Fresno. “We knew long-term if we didn’t have water, we’d be out of business,” Cameron said.
Four specimens of the newfound species were captured in nets about 80 to 100 feet underwater, researchers said.
Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, Uranus, Venus and the Moon all line up for the last time until 2040
A new research paper debunks recent assertions that Stonehenge might’ve been an astonishingly accurate solar-based calendar.
The very notion of resurrecting the long-extinct woolly mammoth was the stuff of fantasy not that long ago, but scientists are already working on ways to achieve something close to that, using DNA from soft-tissue in frozen mammoth remains and meshing it with that of a modern-day elephant. Vow, an Australian cultivated food company that creates meat in a laboratory setting from animal cells, says that it has used advanced molecular engineering to resurrect the woolly mammoth in meatball form, by combining original mammoth DNA with fragments of an African elephant's DNA.
Layer after layer of the city’s history emerged from the ancient trash heap.
The 15-foot mammal was still alive when witnesses approached it early Friday evening. Officials determined it could not be rehabbed.
The gamma-ray burst occurred two billion light-years away from Earth.
Marcin Jozwiak via UnsplashLast week’s report from the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change contained a dire warning: Radical action is needed to cut worldwide carbon emissions 60 percent by 2035 and avert the worst effects of a climate disaster. The report raised the stakes in the ongoing race to decarbonize the world’s industries, with technologies that can produce energy without releasing carbon dioxide or that can directly remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.It’s c
Scientists are monitoring a new species of mosquito in Florida. It's in three counties, and expected to spread with uncertain consequences.
On an April day, the founder of a U.S. startup called Make Sunsets stood outside a camper van in Mexico’s Baja California and released two weather balloons containing sulfur dioxide into the air, letting them float towards the stratosphere. Entrepreneur Luke Iseman said the sulfur dioxide in the balloons would deflect sunlight and cool the atmosphere, a controversial climate strategy known as solar geoengineering. Mexico said the launch violated its national sovereignty.
Rolls-Royce announced it received funding from the UK Space Agency to develop a nuclear reactor to sustain life on the moon.
Joshua Hoehne / UnsplashOn Sunday night, Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) tweeted a bold claim about ChatGPT, saying the chatbot had “taught itself to do advanced chemistry” even though chemistry knowledge wasn’t “built into the model” and nobody “programmed it to learn complicated chemistry.”“It decided to teach itself, then made its knowledge available to anyone who asked,” Murphy added. “Something is coming. We aren’t ready.”ChatGPT taught itself to do advanced chemistry. It wasn't built into the
After three years in R&D, a new Overseas adds two of watchmaking’s grandest complications
Scientists have discovered a new and renewable source of water on the moon for future explorers in lunar samples from a Chinese mission. Water was embedded in tiny glass beads in the lunar dirt where meteorite impacts occur. The beads range in size from the width of one hair to several hairs; the water content was just a miniscule fraction of that, said Hejiu Hui of Nanjing University, who took part in the study.
Adam Driver's new film "65" gets everything wrong from the title to the dinosaurs. Paleontologists say there's no excuse given today's fossil records.
