NASA released this new mosaic from its planet-hunting Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (Invalid Link Removed) on November 5, 2019. It’s a gorgeous mosaic of the southern sky, consisting of 208 TESS images acquired during the mission’s first year of science operations, which was completed on July 18, 2019.

I open my soul to the intrawebs in pursuit of public service...

I am ready to be the butt of jokes, and knowing glances, if it means I can save one thumb.

An hour ago I was in the midst of a Four-Alarm Crazy Glue emergency!

I’m sure that I’m not the only one to fill those cracks...the Dr. calls them ‘fissures’... that show up at the tips of our fingers when the weather cools, with some form of Crazy Glue.

A moment’s inattentiveness...eyes that we’re Not on the ball...and It Was On!

At one point, the word ‘stitches’ popped into my distracted mind.
Before it was Neosporined, and staunched, I had blood on 8 of my fingers.

Wouldja let me be a lesson to ya?

Be careful out there!!

Now...Bring It!!

80-90 per day? Sheesh, more like per HOUR when driving the Phoenix freeways. Spoken from experience. Daily.

True, so true. But it all averages out, I'm afraid
