You've seen fireworks that look like jellyfish, but what about a jellyfish that looks like fireworks? The E/V Nautilus filmed this rare Halitrephes maasi jellyfish glowing like a firework at a depth of 4,019 feet (1,225 meters) off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. (📷: Ocean Exploration Trust)

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

The birth flowers of September are Aster (Asteracae) and Morning Glory (Ipomoea), symbolising wisdom and undying love. They also happen to be my birth flowers! I turned 30 earlier this month :)

An art-nouveau style illustration of a fair-skinned woman with blue-black wavy hair, clad in robes of shimmering blue. She is surrounded by oversized morning glories and asters, both blue in colour. She is surrounded by a flowing, vine-like framework, and the background is a mix of deep blue clouds and a starscape.

This is tangential to the valid, well-articulated point being made here, but I don't really respect the recontextualization that some people twist themselves into to argue for (or sometimes against) older media. (That is not the point that was being made by the OP, just a secondary thought)

We report at nightfall, ahead of the cold front we are expecting in the morning: the wind is rising. The atmospheric pressure is still dropping. The stars are twinkling through the clouds; the humidity is creating halos around them. The few raindrops are flying in the breeze.

Enticing an owl dragon into your yard may sound fun, but know this little lady plans to fill up that nest box she’s found with her prized hoard of dead mice. Owl dragons only keep the bones, fur, teeth and whiskers of the mice, though, so it’s not as smelly as you might fear. #smaugust #smaugust2026

We report: last week, we stood outside at night for hours on end during the peak of the Perseids. Tonight, the sky is even clearer, and we would do it again - had the temperature not dropped by half since. Even our jacket feels a little flimsy after a few minutes of staring up.

We report: we see half a dozen sunrises on the train. The sun emerges from behind the clouds, casting an orange glow across the whole sky, then the clouds swallow it back. Minutes later, another place, the shape of the clouds has changed, but it happens again the exact same way.

Digital painting of a sunrise sky, large swathes of grey clouds spread out across a pastel blue and orange sky. The clouds are all different shapes, some long and smooth, others tall and bubbling. In the middle of the frame, some clouds are bright red, and bright sunshine is coming through. The horizon is dark, trees and buildings.

It’s worth noting that Taco Bell identified the source before the FDA did, and promptly pulled it from their stores. The FDA didn’t even name the source until Taylor Farms outed themselves, and hasn’t issued a recall. Basically, Taco Bell is now a more reliable authority than the FDA.
