Today, the Sun is directly over the Equator, marking the first day of astronomical autumn in the Northern Hemisphere where day and night are nearly equal in length. Enjoy the balance while it lasts—longer nights are ahead, perfect for stargazing! ✨ #FallEquinox #FirstDayOfFall

It’s World Honey Bee Day! 🐝✨ Honey bees nest in cavities where the only light comes from the hive entrance. Too much artificial light at night can keep that entrance lit 24/7, disrupting their natural day/night cycle. Let’s keep our skies (and nights) dark for the bees.

Ever wonder what a meteor is? 🤔 It's a meteoroid that has entered Earth’s atmosphere at high speed has burned up and creates a streak of light aka a “shooting star”! During a meteor shower, several meteors appear to radiate from one spot in the sky. #PerseidMeteorShower
