NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS)
has been a small-but-mighty source of world-changing scientific research for more than a half-century.
NASA scientists first moved into the building,
which another federal agency leases from GISS’s institutional partner, Columbia University, in 1966.
Last month, at the behest of the Trump administration,
NASA officials told GISS it had to move out before the end of May.
In response, more than 100 staffer…

NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies Faces Eviction under Trump Plan
Since 1966 NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies has been at the forefront of Earth and planetary science from its location in upper Manhattan. Now a Trump administration directive is ejecting its scientists to parts unknown

Went to the final dress rehearsal of Saul at Glyndebourne yesterday, and it was **amazing**: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euczL6jS8UA

Hidden Transits: TOI-2285 b is a Warmer sub-Neptune Likely with a Super-Earth Companion
TOI-2285 b is a sub-Neptune-sized planet orbiting a nearby M dwarf, discovered through the TESS photometric survey and ground-based follow-up observations. The planet was initially reported to have an orbital period of 27.27 d, making it one of the lowest temperature sub-Neptunes transiting a bright M dwarf. However, additional TESS data reveal that its true orbital period is 13.64 d, half the original value, resulting in a warmer equilibrium temperature (358 K) than previously estimated (284 K…
