Today’s Reflection:

Another nice day here in Flag. And now there is thunder so maybe some rain.

My sleep score is very good. I’m improving every day.

The UN has some serious work to do after Trump and the President of Iran address them. First question they need to answer is who is running Iran? As we all know, just saying you are running a country is not enough.   

Historical events

24 Sept History video

Cool to know:

Chocolate is (kinda) a fruit.

In more great chocolate news, the cocoa powder that goes into our fave best dark chocolate bars comes from the "beans" — or fruit of the cacao tree.

 

Picture of the Day:

Autumn equinox

The autumn equinox marks a turning point in the Northern Hemisphere. Occurring each September, it is the moment when the sun crosses the equator heading south, and day and night are nearly equal in length. After this celestial balance, daylight gradually shrinks as the journey towards winter begins.

 

Interesting Space Facts:

But wait a minute… if there’s no wind to blow them away, then why is the flag blowing? Well, it actually wasn’t blowing.

That rippling you see is due to a stubborn telescopic horizontal rod the astronauts were struggling to remove from the flag’s upper hem.
