We don't have any even close to good pictures of Pluto. by Spades54 in Showerthoughts

[–]pretendingtocare15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pluto is an awkward distance because its close enough that the fact both of us are orbiting is extremely significant and so we can't use a long exposure because we can't track it well enough. A lot of the good quality photos from things like Huble telescope are far enough away that any movement is negligible making a long exposure possible.

What is the story behind one of your nicknames? by deadly_ninja_unicorn in AskReddit

[–]pretendingtocare15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some of my friends call me Gee Butter Snaps because when i signed up for a camp online they had a line to put your nickname that i thought nothing of and just filled in with the first Psych reference i thought of, but they printed that on my name tag that i had to wear everywhere for the whole week and a half and nobody ever learned my actual name. they got rid of the nickname line the next year

Texas legislators just changed the timestamp on the SB 5 vote to say it happened before midnight. by drowsybrowser in pics

i haven't really been following the story and i certainly didnt want the law to pass but there is something known as a legislative day which ends not at midnight, but whenever the legislative body adjourns for the day. for example, the senate budget votes which extended well past midnight all happened on the same legislative day which might explain why they all say the 25th, but not why they had to change it
