Meteor and Milky Way over the Alps
Now this was a view with a thrill. From Mount Tschirgant in the Alps, you can see not only nearby towns and distant Tyrolean peaks, but also, weather permitting, stars, nebulas, and the band of the Milky Way Galaxy. What made the arduous climb worthwhile this night, though, was another peak -- the peak of the 2018 Perseids Meteor Shower. As hoped, dispersing clouds allowed a picturesque sky-gazing session that included many faint meteors, all while a carefully positioned camera took a series of exposures. Suddenly, a thrilling meteor -- bright and colorful -- slashed down right next to the nearly vertical band of the Milky Way. As luck would have it, the camera caught it too. Therefore, a new image in the series was quickly taken with one of the sky-gazers posing on the nearby peak. Later, all of the images were digitally combined.
just a reminder that

this is what anthropics new chat bot, Claude 2 thinks of wasteof.money:
wasteof.money is a satirical website that pokes fun at extravagant and overpriced products. Some key things to know:
- It's not a real e-commerce site - the products shown are exaggerated or made up for humor. The prices listed are outrageously high.
- The site tags itself as "The most exquisitely useless things money can buy." It showcases fanciful products like a $1 million paperclip, a $5,500 pencil, and a $100,000 sandwich.
- The point is to parody and mock ridiculous or excessive consumerism. By showcasing imaginary over-the-top products, it aims to make people think critically about what provides true value.
- The site combines product descriptions written in a faux-pretentious style with absurd, high-resolution photos of the fake products. This further heightens the satirical effect.
- wasteof.money doesn't actually sell anything - it's just meant as entertainment and social commentary on extravagance. The creators likely chose the domain name intentionally to drive home their message.
So in summary, wasteof.money uses exaggerated satire and fictional products to creatively criticize lavish spending and materialism. It aims to be humorous while also making people reflect on what really matters.
just learned that wasteof.mobile (or whatever) can make links to wasteof from other browsers open in it!
fun fact: the firefox logo is actually a red panda
wasteof users should do this
