Flying with migrating birds

Tears welled up in my eyes when I saw this. Christian Moullec has been flying with migratory birds for more than 20 years. He raises the birds on his farm and teaches them how to migrate. You can tag along if you want. The money will be used to support the conservation efforts.

I'm going to the Sun

This morning the Parker Solar Probe was launched to the Sun to research the Sun’s atmosphere. Earlier this year people were given the opportunity to register their name to be sent on the spacecraft. Guess who registered?

Ticket

I was not alone though, more than one million people registered too.
