To make your day more dramatic, post a random news story with the title, “It begins.“
there are some girls behind me talking about how they're going to use AI tO wRiTe tHeIr aRt HiStOrY aSsIgNmEnT.
there was an Aurora borealis last night
(and if you are cool and in the wasteof discord you can see picture)
I don’t really know why @astronomy isn’t working, all I know is that imgbb can’t get the image for some reason, sorry!
im so cool, i learnt how to use apache virtualhosts instead of being janky with cloudflared tunnels! (and now I can have a billions sites on one port!!)
Auroral Storm over Lapland
On some nights the sky is the best show in town. On this night, auroras ruled the sky, and the geomagnetic storm that created this colorful sky show originated from an increasingly active Sun. Surprisingly, since the approaching solar CME the day before had missed the Earth, it was not expected that this storm would create auroras. In the foreground, two happily surprised aurora hunters contemplate the amazing and rapidly changing sky. Regardless of forecasts, though, auroras were reported in the night skies of Earth not only in the far north, but as far south as New Mexico, USA. As captured in a wide-angle image above Saariselkä in northern Finnish Lapland, a bright aurora was visible with an unusually high degree of detail, range of colors, and breadth across the sky. The vivid yellow, green, red and purple auroral colors are caused by oxygen and nitrogen atoms high in Earth's atmosphere reacting to incoming electrons.
wow im one spot to the explorer page
allyz needs to stay on it though, I don't really want to be on it
I wouldn't mind being on it though
just watched the Mario movie!!
it was great, and i totally recommend y'all watch it!
but yeah, i agree that if you aren't much of a Mario fan, you will probably not get some references.
sorry it's a bit late, the API I used died so I had to switch to a different instance.
Portrait of NGC 3628
Sharp telescopic views of NGC 3628 show a puffy galactic disk divided by dark dust lanes. Of course, this portrait of the magnificent, edge-on spiral galaxy puts some astronomers in mind of its popular moniker, the Hamburger Galaxy. It also reveals a small galaxy nearby (below), likely a satellite of NGC 3628, and a very faint but extensive tidal tail. The drawn out tail stretches for about 300,000 light-years, even beyond the left edge of the frame. NGC 3628 shares its neighborhood in the local universe with two other large spirals M65 and M66 in a grouping otherwise known as the Leo Triplet. Gravitational interactions with its cosmic neighbors are likely responsible for creating the tidal tail, as well as the extended flare and warp of this spiral's disk. The tantalizing island universe itself is about 100,000 light-years across and 35 million light-years away in the northern springtime constellation Leo.
cat pictures are back, but using unsplash!
The richest cat is Blackie who was left £15 million by his owner, Ben Rea.
As an extra, here's a cute lil cat ^-^
can we please stop having flame wars on this website? it used to be a nice place. i'm always missing posts from people that I want to see, like daily_news, and cat pictures (there is no cat pictures, but there will be soon!) there is cat pictures now!!
