↯ Klaatu - Some Brave Apollo ↯

1.5 million tons every second traveling at 100 miles per second. That's the solar wind which is basically a stream of protons, hydrogen atoms with the electrons ripped off. That net positive charge allows them to be deflected by the Earth's magnetic field #trendingshorts #facts #earth #solarsystem #space

Still that's a lot of hydrogen going to waste. Use a Bussard ram scoop and harvest that for fuel

This research shows that the role of #animals in shaping #Earth’s landscapes is much more significant that previously recognised.From #beavers creating wetlands to #ants building mounds of soil, these diverse natural processes are crucial, yet we risk losing them as #biodiversity declines.

Nearly 30% of the identified species are rare, endemic, or threatened, meaning vital geomorphic processes could cease before their full significance is understood. #ecosystems

Point for consideration for your #Scifi #worldbuilding - what color would the #ocean be? Even on #Earth, across time and space, the oceans had different colors: a red & black Archean; maybe a milky & turquoise Proterozoic? Even the modern ocean is not just blue.

Thor's Helmet versus the Seagull

Cosmic clouds resembling a seagull and a duck span 7 degrees in the sky near Canis Major. The Seagull #Nebula (NGC 2327 and IC 2177) has a wingspan of about 250 light-years at 3,800 light-years away. Below, the compact Duck Nebula (NGC 2359), or Thor's Helmet, measures about 50 light-years across at a distance of 15,000 light-years.

SpaceX Rocket Launch Plume over California

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch created a stunning spectacle over California and Arizona, backlit by the setting Sun. It delivered 23 Starlink satellites to orbit, with its plume resembling a space fish. #Venus and a streetlight also appear in the image taken from Phoenix.

According to preliminary data interpreted by #scientists, #Asteroid 2024 YR4 could potentially impact the #Earth in 2032, within a possible zone extending from near the #China/#India border, across Central #Africa into the Atlantic Ocean and into northern areas of South #America & into the #Pacific off the coast of Central America & #Mexico. The results of such an impact would be catastrophic. This is from preliminary data only as doubt the #NEO will hit the planet at all persists.
