In case you have missed it, the best account on X (Twitter) right now is from a German guy visiting the US for the first time and planning to take in World Cup games. He keeps finding the best of America and the people of America keep embracing him.

He's covering more of America than many Americans and showing the world that there is more to America than New York, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

James Webb Space Telescope discovers "galaxy-killing" wind that may explain why some early galaxies lived fast and died young

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers may have uncovered new clues about a longstanding mystery in galaxy evolution: why so many massive galaxies in the early universe appear to have died far sooner than expected.

Using ALMA and JWST observations of a distant galaxy, researchers have detected a "galaxy-killing" wind - an enormous, high-speed outflow of gas - that is powerful enough to strip a galaxy of the raw material needed to make new stars. The discovery could help explain the puzzling population of massive "dead" galaxies found throughout the young cosmos, according to a statement from the Royal Astronomical Society.

Half-red, half-yellow chimera apple draws crowds at New Zealand store

Curious visitors are flocking to a New Zealand produce store to catch a glimpse of a rare chimera apple that is half red and half yellow.

The apple, with colors split almost perfectly down the middle, was found in a mid-May delivery of Red Braeburn apples at the Sunshine Corner Market in the Christchurch suburb of Mairehau.

Chimera apples, believed to occur in less than one in a million fruits, result from a genetic mutation that causes the apple to form from cells from two different genetic backgrounds.

The store's owner, Heather, said the apple has become something of a local celebrity.

New Zealand tourist attraction closed due to unsanctioned poop

A popular tourist attraction in a New Zealand town has been temporarily closed by officials after multiple incidents involving human feces.

The Masterton District Council said in a since-deleted Facebook post that the Fernery, a building that houses more than 60 varieties of fern at Queen Elizabeth Park in Masterton, had to be closed for cleaning Wednesday due to the presence of poop.

"This kind of behavior is completely unacceptable - and disrespectful to other park users. It is thankfully rare. There are excellent public toilets literally two minutes from the Fernery in Queen Elizabeth Park, and regularly-praised toilets a few minutes away in the [Central Business District]," the spokesperson told 1News.

Club ONT has regularly-praised toilets nearby, so please do not engage in unsanctioned pooping while in Club ONT.
