Yep, that’s the Earth. A crescent Earth. [photo thanks to NASA . . . does my mentioning that agency often and expressing gratitude for what they do make me a shill?]
What is the future of the planet? Good question. The very long term future — not good. The nuclear furnace called the Sun won’t burn forever. The shorter term? Hmm.
Speaking of the Sun. A friend of mine mentioned the other day that he thinks we should start referring to it as “our star.” I like it.
