Swimmerman96, in How far you have to travel to see a sky free of light pollution

I went to Cherry Springs State Park in Pennsylvania for it's certified Dark Sky Park to see the Palisades Meteor Shower a couple years back. It was a stunning thing, I had never seen so many stars at once. I brought some binoculars, and could see just as many stars through just the little part of the sky the binoculars looked at. That's before just laying there and watching for Shooting Stars, there was a whole crowd there "Ooh"ing and " Aaah"ing each time. It was stunning, I'd highly suggest it to anyon einterested in star gazing.

DigitalAudio, in Scripts of India
@DigitalAudio@sopuli.xyz avatar

I know very little about the several Indian languages and scripts but are some of these even somewhat related? Like in the same way Latin, Cyrillic and Greek are all related?

v4nadium,

Yes! Most of them are called Brahmic scripts, because they descend from the Brahmi script, which is thought to come from the Phoenician script through the Aramaic one.

foo, in Soil map of the East Kootenay Area

Wow, where would one find a West Kootenay soil map?

Track_Shovel,

I might actually have the west Kootenay area if you want it

foo,

It looks like this might be it. Wow, I had no idea this was out there.

Thank you!

Track_Shovel,

Yeah boi, that's it. If you have any questions about anything related to the maps, let me know via DM <a href=""></a>

Track_Shovel,

There's extensive soil mapping across Canada; it depends on the resolution you want though. Good ones like this are provincial maps at about 1:100k scale

This is sick!

iambarr,

Thank you!

Instant claustrophobia when i think about this

Hedup, in Verëvkina Cave in Abkhazia, the deepest known cave in the world, reaching 2212 m deep.

Is that the end of the cave at the very bottom, or is it just the level wehere water starts and it could be possibly deeper?

Potentially goes deeper.

Sibbo,

March 2018 – another expedition of the same team added more than a kilometer of tunnels to the cave map. They also measured the depth of The Last Nemo Station terminal siphon lake. It was 8.5 m (28 ft) and so the total cave depth reached 2,212 metres (7,257 ft).

At least the siphon with the lowest surface level was measured, but it does not say if by diving one could get even deeper.

This is crazy stuff. I wish there was a documentary made about these people, who seemingly lack any sense of self preservation :D

Hedup,

They just take comfort in the fact that the worst that could happen would be the sweet embrace of mother Earth.

Best I can do is 5 meters.

Sibbo, in Verëvkina Cave in Abkhazia, the deepest known cave in the world, reaching 2212 m deep.

How accurate are these measurements? What is the expected relative deviation? Or is it possible to measure the depth of caves up to the millimetre nowadays?

zksmk, in History of languages on the British Isles

I wasn't expecting that much Old Norse tbh.

CanadaPlus, in Neitokainen is a body of water in Finland, which is shaped like Finland

Where, roughly, is it? I'm going to guess it's pretty remote by the lack of human artifacts in the picture and just the statistics of how inhabited Finland is.

zksmk,

Right here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=neitokainen#map=18/67.55653/24.50085

You're right, it's very far north, next to the border with Sweden.

CanadaPlus, in I don't know why but I love the Peirce Quincuncial projection

Hmm, that's neat. So you're stretching the equator of a globe to a square and then hinging it apart at the hemispheres, basically.

sasquash471, in Purchasing power in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

This doesn't show the relative purchasing power. It shows the median income per capita? Now compare it to the local prices and you get the relative purchasing power. Then the difference wouldn't be as big.

Thanks for pointing that out. You're right. I messed up with the title. What i intended to say was that the scale was relative. But the title is corrected now.

boo, in Percentage of population eating meat in India.

Whats the source? Waht month was this measured in? Does it also consider frequency? The numbers kind of look way too high for some states.

agarorn,

The source is given?

surrendertogravity,

The source in the image says the survey was from 15 to 49 years old; I’m not sure on the age demographics of India but that seems like it would leave out a large chunk of population.

reverendsteveii,

Here’s what you get when you google the source in the image. Hope this helps!
