No garage, but, a giant fuck you finger is just fine.:eyebrow:

I thought a ballistic missile sub was an attack sub, wonder what the difference is?

edit: Wiki say an attack sub is a hunter-killer of ships and subs, rather than countries.

This image from Parker Solar Probe's WISPR (Wide-field Imager for Solar Probe) instrument shows a coronal streamer, seen over the east limb of the Sun on Nov. 8, 2018, at 1:12 a.m. EST. Coronal streamers are structures of solar material within the Sun's atmosphere, the corona, that usually overlie regions of increased solar activity. The fine structure of the streamer is very clear, with at least two rays visible. Parker Solar Probe was about 16.9 million miles from the Sun's surface when this image was taken. The bright object near the center of the image is Mercury, and the dark spots are a result of background correction.

A li'l ol' snapshot o'home...

NASA's OSIRIS-REx used it's NavCam (I assume 'Navigation Camera') to take a photo of Earth.

Earth, and our moon, is in the lower left of the pic. I thought the big shiny thing was gonna be the Sun.

Nope.

That's OSIRIS-REx's target, the asteroid Bennu.

Earth is ~71,000,000 miles away in the photo.

Bennu is ~27 miles.

I've never seen a metal oil can for sale anywhere. I like it. Metal is easy to recycle and won't end up floating in the ocean when we send it to another country to "recycle."

Gravdigr 01-21-2019 12:22 PM

How many Kittehs had to die in order to squeeze 3 liters of oil out of 'em?:eyebrow:

Gravdigr 01-21-2019 12:22 PM

Do Hello Kittehs lactate oil?

Auntie & Uncledigr ran the local drive-in many moons ago. I was a pretty popular guy during the summer.

What with a car, and free admission to any movie they were showing...:rolleyes:

Fairy Meadows, in front of Nanga Parbat.

xoxoxoBruce 03-12-2019 12:25 AM

Nanga Parbat, locally known as Diamer, is the ninth highest mountain in the world at 8,126 metres above sea level. Located in the Diamer District of Pakistan’s Gilgit Baltistan region, Nanga Parbat is the western anchor of the Himalayas.

You're welcome.

"I'm a-coming Mr. Pocket! You just wait right there, I'm a-coming! Good night Mr. Pocket."

I said that shit for half a year when I read the Jack London story. It started all over again w/Ballad of Buster Scruggs.

That part was my fav, btw.
