Check out this huge plasma filament release from the Sun's southwestern limb yesterday. The filament is over 150,000 miles in length. You could stretch 19 Earth's across it!

The CME is not headed towards us, but it sure is a sight to behold.

Remnant impact of an ancient historical earthquake left on an old crusader's building in Lebanon. Restoration efforts did not manage to correct perfectly for this, to our delight.
Traces of past earthquake deformatiom on a building should be documented and analysed fully if not preserved.

Polar bears weigh 1-1.5 pounds when born but grow approximately 20 times their original body weight in 12 weeks! Polar bear milk is the fattiest found on land, at about 31% fat when the cubs are born. This provides enough calories to help cubs grow rapidly. #FunFactFriday 🐻‍❄️

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home. So we need to make that hell the worse hell. Start calling and screaming at all of your representatives now! 1/2
