That is gorgeous.
That said, assuming you're in Iceland and taking these to share with the world, I'd love if we could get more Aurora videos. All I ever see is stills or timelapses. And when I did visit Iceland, it wasn't the right time for Auroras (I was so disappointed). What I'd love to see is some real time, high quality videos of auroras so I can finally see how they move & shimmer.

Basically those in the area of the immediate blast zone (the red area on the graph). Things will be high unpleasent for everyone else in its area of effect, but not murder-zone unpleasant. After the blast zone, the next biggest murder-doom is the smoke, which the prevailing easterlies will push over Idaho. The bigger concern for WA isn't if Rainer blows or its ash, it's if it triggers the fault lines.

Actually, with the prevailing easterlies, other than the people immediately around it, it's more likely to murder Idaho.

Reply to Why anything exist? by santoshskm
In high energy physics, we come to the realization that not only does space contain energy/matter, but space exists as a property of energy/matter.
In other words, space exists because energy/matter creates a bubble of space around it. Further, since because energy/matter is contained in space, but can also contain the energy/matter that project additional space, every bit of energy/matter/space is referenceable as a property in a larger container, or in other words, a fraction. (example: 1 gram matter / 1 cubic meter), in the primordial "before existence" (as weird as that concept is when we get down to the nitty gritty as time is also a function of energy/matter/space), you end with a real-world scenario of 0/0.
However, 0/0 is a mathmatically untenable state. So we analyze by using caculus to get approaching limits. As we approach, we find out all points on the y axis are reachable at 0/0 depending on method of approach. In other words, 0/0 in this scenario calculates out to the set of all numbers. This results in a graph with a single null point at the origin of all things where it is impossible for anything to exist - no matter, no light, no energy, no space, no time, no data, no thought, no observation, but that said null-point results in everything as spacetime literally rips itself apart to create matter and space - a big bang.
And this isn't just hypothesis. We can see that in localized low energy settings that that positive and negative particles spontaneously emerge (and either collide with something or collapse, usually) creating a constant bubbling pressure on the quantum level known as the quantum foam. In other words, lots of "tiny big bangs" happen around us everywhere every second of every day as that original 0/0 event "continues to produce" all real numbers, filling up all the gaps that appear.

Interesting... so does that means even though something can't move faster than the speed of light, it could hypothetically spin faster than light if it could maintain structural integrity?

I thought the edge of a disc would decay slower, since they're going closer to accelerating to lightspeed, therefore they're the ones experiencing time dialation?

So motion is relative, but acceleration is not.

So movement is relative, but changes in movement aren't. Weird, but makes sense.

I disagree. In fact, one of the best things to curb climate change would be a climate version of the French Revolution globally.
Thing is, all the capability to fix climate change already exists. The problem is that all the solutions are incompatible with the "growth at any cost" mentality that most businesses have, since that "growth at any cost" mentality is the core of the problem in the first place. All those at the top are trying to figure out ways to fix climate change in ways that don't damage their bottom line, which just isn't possible. Fixing climate change requires us all to tighten our belts a bit and live a little less high off the hog, and take time to update & improve what we've already made rather than breakneck making more.
We need to make decisions that don't align with business interests, and we aren't going to do that as long as the decision makers are aligned with businesses.
