BTW: for anyone not familiar with #STEVE it's aurora related but it's caused by the gas, not directly by the charged particles.
Still pretty enchanting
to watch though!

I'll be back in a couple hours
to start boosting your photos and vid clips. Please try to remember to post your general location. i.e: Upstate NY, Canada- BC, etc. etc.
U.S/CA Keep an eye on the NOAA geomagnetic activity tracker Tonight-Sunday.
Folks as far south as Alabama, U.S may be treated to an #aurora.
In fact, with 5 CMEs headed our way, everyone across the globe should keep an eye on the night time sky.
It's the second mass bleaching event to spread
across the globe in the last 10 years
And the worst one on record for the Great Barrier Reef. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xi9uFA3-cDE
Today, learn about coral bleaching and the one billion lives that will continue to be deeply negatively affected by these events
with increasing frequency
in the coming years.
This year, there will be a nova, before or by September, as bright as the North Star.
After peak brightness it will remain bright enough, for several days, to observe with binoculars.
You can help research scientists with observational details.
Today, learn about the 32 U.S coastal cities, affecting up to 500,000 people, that are at an increased risk of experiencing one or more major flooding events in the next twenty years, due to land subsidence and sea-level rise. https://news.vt.edu/articles/2024/01/research-sinkingcoasts.html
As it turns out, Jupiters moon #Europa has substantially less oxygen than previously thought. Albeit, it still produces enough oxygen
in a 24 hour period
to keep approximately
one million humans breathing.
Ever wonder how Baleen whales (Blues, Greys, Humpbacks), the largest
and some of the most magnificent animals to ever roam the earth,
produce their highly complex communication sounds and whale songs?
Latest research analysis lend further physical evidence modern humans and neanderthals lived side by side and interbred for several thousand years before neanderthals became extinct.
