Not a bot; a rather corpulent male approaching fifty years of age; married; father; a very very slow reader; barely reaching up to the level of mediocrity; an ignoramus who reads occasionally.

Technically speaking, the ancient stars in the central Milky Way are relics of our original proto-galaxy. But the researchers, feeling a touch nostalgic perhaps, are calling it our "poor old heart." https://arxiv.org/abs/2209.02722 #astronomy #space #nostalgia

The Gaia space telescope has uncovered the "poor old heart of the Milky Way": the original clump of stars that formed more than 12.5 billion years ago and eventually gave rise to the galaxy we know today.

Do you follow too many people?
Do you want to organise your Mastodon home timeline into several themed mini-timelines that are easier to navigate?
You can do this on Mastodon using the "Lists" feature, and here's a guide all about it:

You can use Lists on third party apps like Tusky for Android or Metatext for iPhone/iPad, or on your server's website.
@RobEdmunds11 Thank you for following.

When Nietzsche lectured on rhetoric in 1872 he only had two students, "It seems so unbelievably twisted to me, especially when I consider that one is a personal enthusiast of mine and would just as soon polish my boots as hear from me about rhetoric!"
