A full disk image of Earth, as seen from the Orion capsule. The planet is a pale blue, swirling with white clouds and glowing slightly lighter blue in place from reflected light. From about 8 to 9 o'clock, a large brown landmass is Africa, with the Iberian peninsula twinkling with lights just where the planet curves. At the 1 o'clock spot, aurora glow in a thin green glow, just barely separated from the planet's surface. Earth is set against the black of space. Credit: NASA/Reid Weisman

From NASA: "We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon." www.nasa.gov/image-articl...

I’m walking around talking to people at Judkins Park station in Seattle as they wait to take the new 2 Line Crosslake connection to the Eastside. Lots of furries taking the train today!

Light rail opening across Lake Washington the same week baseball returns is almost too silly. Like, what's next? Free beer on the ferries?

Everything You Need to Know About the 2 Line Crosslake Connection Today's events celebrating the region's newest light rail connection start at 9am, with the first train across I-90 taking off shortly after 10am. As the only light rail line to cross a floating bridge anywhere in the world, the full 2 Line is a major achievement.

A bridge with transit brought two Scandinavian cities out of the economic doldrums and helped make them international beacons of urban livability. Economists say Seattle and Bellevue’s Crosslake transit connection could do the same.
