Happy day! I counted 4 raspberries, 2 cherries, 1 magnolia, an apple, a pear, and a peach, plus 4-7 grape vines that made it through the winter. Today the oldest cherry, the apple and the pear are wearing flowers. Might start a few more cherries, since they seem to like my dirt.

Satellite is showing storms beginning to form near the I-64 corridor. We already have an elevated supercell composite and will only increase wind shear through the day. All hazards threat today. Best risk looks to be from Etown to Lexington! #KYwx

One giant leap for mankind History was made on July 20, 1969, when Apollo 11's Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first to set foot on the Moon. For more than 5 decades, the total number of moonwalkers has remained at 12. NASA will change that with Artemis IV.

5 years ago today: NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter made the first powered flight on another planet. 🚁 Over the course of 72 flights and 3 years, it soared higher, faster, and farther than ever envisioned. go.nasa.gov/3JrXDSQ

Only one chance in this lifetime… Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him. I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
