A Planet That’s Basically a Cosmic Lemon?!

Astronomers just found a planet that’s literally shaped like a lemon—no joke. It’s squished by the gravity of a wild, spinning neutron star and has an atmosphere made almost entirely of carbon (think: diamonds inside!). This weird world shouldn’t even exist, but here it is, orbiting its star in just 7.8 hours and breaking every rule scientists thought they knew about planets. The universe really does have a sense of humor! #Science #SpaceOddity #JamesWebb

Texas Roadhouse eyes bigger space in Northfield

Texas Roadhouse at The Shoppes at Northfield could soon get a boost—plans are in the works for a 439-square-foot expansion that would add about 40 more seats.

While nothing’s set in stone yet, it’s a sign of how much the area is growing. What do you think—would a bigger Texas Roadhouse make your Northfield nights out better? #Food #Northfield #TexasRoadhouse
