Happy 170th Birthday, Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) ✍️
The man who gave us alternating current, the induction motor, the Tesla coil, and the polyphase system that still carries power to every wall socket on Earth.
He imagined wireless energy before the world had radio. He died with few possessions and hundreds of patents.

You have 24 hours!
@bencb789 Perhaps the real problem isn’t the super-rich or politicians. It’s human nature itself. We seem to be wired for short-term rewards, stuck in bureaucratic systems, and shaped by deep-rooted cultural habits. In the end, we may be both the problem and the only ones who can fix it.
Get ready for a jaw-dropping cosmic spectacle! On July 17th, the sky is set to deliver one of the most stunning planetary parades of the decade. Six planets will line up in a breathtaking arc, creating a rare "planet parade" you'll remember for years.What you can see:Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn — shining bright and visible to the naked eye from almost anywhere with a clear view.
Uranus and Neptune — trickier, but possible with the naked eye from truly dark skies (binoculars or a small telescope will make them pop).
This isn't just any alignment — it's a spectacular lineup along the ecliptic, like nature's own cosmic highway lighting up the twilight. Mark your calendars now, set a reminder, and find a spot away from city lights for the best show. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime sky event. Look up on July 17th — the universe is putting on a performance! (Pro tip: Check local weather and rise/set times for your area. Even a few days around the date should offer great views!)
Clouds hovering perfectly over the islands
This happens because the land heats up faster than the water. This creates a vertical updraft, causing warm, moist air to rise, cool, and condense into a cloud directly above each island.
