Hi folks,

Tonight at midnight UTC it was 60k days since the MJD epoch 1858-11-17:

2023 Feb 25 Sat 00:00:00+0000  MJD 60000.000000  JD 2460000.500000
NTP 3886272000  Unix 1677283200  Windows 133217568000000000

No sign of anyone at SAO acknowledging the 65th year of its use since its 
definition to track Sputnik's orbit on an IBM 704 from 1957-10-04 to about 
1958-01-04.
