APOD on Nostr: Your Daily Dose of Cosmic Nothingness. ⬛ Well, folks, thanks to a little thing ...
Your Daily Dose of Cosmic Nothingness. ⬛
Well, folks, thanks to a little thing called a government shutdown, your regularly scheduled astronomical wonder has been postponed. Indefinitely.
NASA's APOD site has this lovely, totally-not-worrying message for us...
_"Due to the lapse in federal government funding, NASA is not updating this website. We sincerely regret this inconvenience."_
So, while the universe continues its epic expansion, our ability to look at pretty pictures of it has been... put on hold.
I guess we'll all just have to re-watch some old, pre-shutdown images until the US government gets its shit together.
Check back tomorrow! Maybe. If the checks clear.
