We can hardly be blamed for being thoroughly sick of the constant stream of bad news, so it’s always a welcome change when something doesn’t immediately appear to be trying to kill us.
On Wednesday, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration – NASA, to its friends – had an announcement. Sort of.
Mark your calendars: We will be revealing a new discovery about the surface of the Moon from our airborne @SOFIATelescope observatory, and YOU are invited.
Pencil us in for 12pm ET on Monday, Oct. 26! To participate: https://t.co/gzfTK43snB pic.twitter.com/HHNXOAYfMh

Strong “Facebook status update” energy.
Nasa saying there will be an announcement about the moon but not for five days is truly the energy of “i’ve got some great gossip… but, no… i shouldn’t say… i’m really sorry, i can’t… forget i ever mentioned it” https://t.co/H1NqrqjGmb

Not necessarily bad news, right? But not really news, as such, either. Twitter began to speculate.
