SARS-CoV-2 did not come from a lab. There is no evidence pointing to laboratory origins. There’s been a massive disinformation campaign to convince the public otherwise. It’s scary how effective that campaign has been.

Two years ago tonight, I witnessed my first aurora borealis... from the OK/TX border of all places! ✨ The display was associated with a G5-class geomagnetic storm triggered by X-class solar flares from active region 13664 on the Sun. #Photography

Planned capacity additions are 51% solar, 28% battery, 14% wind, 7% gas, everything else is a rounding error

I always thought the first time I had a chance to see and photograph the Aurora it would be somewhere like Iceland, or Alaska. I was wrong. It was in New Mexico! 😂 And if you look closely, you can see a bit of the Milky Way up above as well. #on1pics #photography #astrophotography

Only other storm that rivals it is Super Typhoon Haiyan. Its just utterly catastrophic. Im pretty sure it was well above 185mph at peak/landfall, ballpark guess probably 190-195, maybe 200. Gusts were likely 250+ in the hills.

The wind damage from Melissa is by far the worst ive ever seen documented from any hurricane. Looks more like violent tornado damage than a TC. Mass-debarking of sections of forests, large buildings like churches demolished, concrete structures w upper floors blown away...its unreal.

The Advanced Dvorak Technique (ADT) satellite-derived intensity estimate peaked at 185 knots for #Melissa -- which, according to the developer at CIMSS, is the highest value to date for any tropical cyclone.

2X increase in the most extreme hurrucanes! Looking at every Cat 4 & 5 in the Atlantic since 1980 (reliable records/ data gathering) I broke the record into 2 equal parts. 1980-2002 and 2003-2025 The most recent period has more than double the number of most intense hurricanes in the Atlantic!… 1/

Incredible Sentinal-2 satellite imagery of #Melissa at peak intensity before landfall. In the cloud-free areas of the eye you can see the physical effect of the surface wind gradient (2nd image): chaotic whitecapped waves near center transition to extreme sea spray/linear streaking near the eyewall!

Just found this image of the 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption in Iceland that I've never shared before. Being in the presence of this volcano and feeling the intense heat of the Earth on my skin was genuinely the best experience of my life and its not even close. #photography

An erupting volcano. A black spatter cone with a gap in the front has lava fountaining out, hundreds of feet into the air, smacking against the cone, and flowing along a snaking lava river toward the camera. A plume of gas rises into the air with mostly cloudy sky in the background.

a few chasers did, and yes it definitely had some rotation to it. However, given its extreme rural nature and the fact it was on a mountain, we couldn't determine any debris signature or anything.

I am...about 70-80% sure I saw a tornado from my house in Las Vegas on Friday night. Supercell north of town put on a spectacular lightning show, and a stovepipe-shaped cloud formed under it. Either the most convincing scud ever or I caught a truly rare desert twister.
