While researching for my Master's Thesis I came across this photo in 2016 of the Mittivakkat Glacier on Ammassalik Island, SE Greenland. On my trip there in 2022 I happened to take a photo in almost the same spot... #greenland #tasiilaq #eastgreenland #climatechange #Arctic

Unprecedented warmth and melt in Greenland this September. Some places average more than +8°C above seasonal average for the month.

Meanwhile, Planet Earth records its 4th warmest September on record.

First look at Greenland’s “baby” glaciers with ICESat-2! 🛰️

Despite covering just ~4% of Greenland’s ice area, they are now responsible ~11% of Greenland’s total ice loss. New study in @theAGU 👇

Can you name this glacier? In cooperation with @ETHBibliothek, we are trying to identify these places. Retweet and/or ask your grandparents and let us know what you think! Don't know this one? Stay tuned, more to come! 😃

Welcome to Arp 147, an interacting galaxy pair!

The left-most galaxy in this #HubbleClassic image appears nearly edge-on to our line of sight and features a smooth ring of starlight. The right-most galaxy has a clumpy, blue ring of intense star formation: https://t.co/HlMpW0PrbS
