International Day of Light

Today is International Day of Light, a worldwide initiative sponsored by UNESCO to celebrate the role of light in scientific innovation, culture, and art. Why today? Because it marks the first successful operation of the laser by Theodore Maiman in 1960.

Day 7

Stargazers should have their eyes fixed on the skies, as astronomers say a "once-in-a-lifetime" view of an astronomical explosion is expected any night.

T Coronae Borealis, also known as the "Blaze Star," is actually a pair of stars located 3,000 light-years away. The star system is a recurring nova, with Earth-visible explosions every 79 to 80 years, according to NASA.

The last recorded outburst from T Coronae Borealis -- which includes a cool, red giant star and a hot, white dwarf star -- was in 1946, according to the space agency, which forecasts it will do so again before September 2024.

When the explosion comes into Earth's view, "it's going to be one of the brightest stars in the sky," Louisiana State University physics and astronomy professor Bradley Schaefer, told ABC News, encouraging the public to go outside and view the explosion as soon as it's in view.

legend tells that toothless' design originally took after wolves, before the creative team saw footage of a panther that changed everything... here is my glimpse into a world where our night fury ended up more canid than felid

alternatively, i think it makes for a decent Light Fury Redesign (tm), casting her as a mysterious white wolf. could a kity and a ouppy truly be bestfriends...?

It's International Little Prince Day everyone!! I watched the CG-animated TV show as a kid and when I found out he was in Sky CoTL, I was simply delighted! I knew I had to make a tribute, so here's my two favorite scarf-wearing kids appreciating the constellations ✨️

Imagine there is an area in the library you and Binah often come to relax in. And you figured it would be nice to plant something in here to decorate it. And you just "happen" to also plant things she could use in tea making like lavender or mint.

Happy international tea day by the way.

i think the Library should have a greenhouse. just for fun

while the Library can technically manifest anything, it requires practice and a stable mind. fresh fruits and leaves and flowers don't do very well, so you've taken to growing your own after getting permission from Angela, scrounging a few seeds from around the Library and clearing out an empty room made of glass. it's slow going at first, with only a few sprouts to your name, but eventually your coworkers catch on and begin giving you any seeds they find and your garden begins flourishing. small tables appear for people to sit at and enjoy the foliage, inhaling the scent of herbs and flowers. you bring occasional bundles of tea supplies to Binah with a broad smile, saying that you had extra, and she looks at you with soft dark eyes and carefully takes them from your hand, brushing her hand against yours

you start finding packets of seeds waiting for you at a table in the corner of the room, tied with a silky black bow and accompanied by a steaming hot cup of tea, always in whatever blend you happened to give Binah that week

Iluminating our experiences with human centric lighting.

Human-centric lighting is an oft-discussed design term, yet, there is confusion about what it is and how to use new (and existing) technologies to achieve it. This course helps professionals understand 1) how to define human-centric lighting, 2) what benefits it can provide to people, buildings, and businesses, and 3) how to practically apply it when designing projects. It also addresses the intersection between electric light and natural daylight, and how achieving a human centric design requires an integrated approach to those two disciplines. This course will be especially useful to interior architects, interior designers, and lighting designers. While at the gallery and showroom, enjoy a truly unique experience. Explore Lutron's Ketra lighting solutions in an artist-approved set-up, showcasing curated artwork in a new and spectacular light. Enhance the experience with the Bang and Olufsen home theater or enjoy Meridian SE speakers in their listening room.  As a special treat, if you're a coffee lover, you'll appreciate their state-of-the-art coffee system that takes the coffee experience to a whole new level?

For #InternationalCatDay 😻:

Cat Night-light China, Qing dynasty, Kangxi reign, made in Jingdezhen, 1690-1722 Porcelain, glazed/painted, H 9.50 x L 14 cm, 0.50 kg British Museum 1936,1012.109

“This moulded porcelain figure of a crouching cat is hollow with no base. It is pierced with large holes for its eyes and mouth and has an opening in its back. Its teeth and tongue are finely made. Different textures of its claws fur and skin are cleverly suggested. Within its erect ears, the soft mottled skin is indicated by a naturalistic pattern of black spots and grey shading. While its fur is depicted using rows of short fine black lines, black patches and stripes around its tail. Inside there are traces of black soot supporting the idea that it was used as a night light.”
