@apergian @AMAZlNGNATURE Curious, if there are so many satellites why hasn’t NASA nor SpaceX ever knocked any out of orbit? Or crashed into one? With all that debris how could they not?

I learned this tip from a friend in Italy, and I never cooked chicken the same way again!

Exoplanet...
Ice flowers in Norway represent one of the rarest and most delicate natural wonders on Earth. These exquisite crystal formations—often called frost flowers—bloom fleetingly on the surface of ultra-thin, freshly formed ice, transforming barren frozen expanses into surreal, ephemeral gardens of shimmering "petals."They appear in mere seconds under razor-sharp conditions: a razor-thin layer of ice (often on lakes, ponds, or calm coastal waters), dead-still air with no wind whatsoever, bone-chillingly low air temperatures (typically far below freezing), and relatively warmer water beneath. The magic isn't freezing liquid water—it's sublimation and deposition in reverse: supersaturated water vapor escapes through microscopic cracks or directly from the ice-water interface, then instantly condenses and crystallizes into intricate, flower-like structures upon touching the brutally cold surface.These fragile ice sculptures are incredibly short-lived—one breath of wind, a touch of sunlight, or the slightest temperature shift can shatter or melt them in minutes. In polar and subpolar regions like Norway's Arctic coastlines or northern fjords, they occasionally carpet vast areas of new sea ice or lake ice, creating breathtaking, otherworldly scenes that feel almost alien.Nature's fleeting masterpiece—beautiful, brittle,

(While these photos capture the delicate frost crystal beauty reminiscent of the phenomenon, true "ice flower fields" on thin ice often appear even more dramatic in dense clusters—search for "frost flowers sea ice Arctic" for the closest visual matches.)

@alphafox I cannot believe this is even a question, the gall of those parents to think it was excessive.
Three men break down my door I am of course going to shoot until I run out of bullets.
I’m sorry three young adults had to lose their lives but he was absolutely 1000 % justified.
