    Video from last year edit: I haven't skied this yet, but I want to. Sadly it's only open without requiring probe+beacon one day a year on average

    Technically if England is becoming a communist country they're becoming second world not third world

    However, one look at any of the forecast soundings shows how impressive/deep the stratospheric intrusion is/will be -- with the tropopause (the separation between the troposphere and stratosphere) expected to fall to as low as 3kft- 4kft AGL this afternoon -- which is almost unheard of for these latitudes. This is what truly speaks to the rarity of this pattern that has evolved, even if daily records are not met/exceeded. https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&issuedby=ILN&product=AFD&format=CI&version=3&glossary=1&highlight=off Stratosphere is getting ridiculously low

    What this tells me if that you lopped off the fins on the S-IC you could maybe just about fit a Saturn V into the internal volume of an Ohio.

    I'm game. I'll have to head to somewhere with less trees than New York, though. In sadder news, rumors that Smuggler's Notch is going to be bought by Vail; https://www.skimag.com/ski-resort-life/smugglers-notch-there-goes-the-neighborhood

    Somewhat considering doing this; Also, Adirondacks and Southern Vermont are supposed to get 18+ inches of snow Saturday night and Sunday. Get hype

    I believe the KH-9 HEXAGON was the last one to use film canisters. Then they switched to electronic for KH-11, which looks not entirely unlike Hubble (there's speculation that the telescopes NRO donated to NASA were spare KH-11s). KH-10 was MOL/DORIAN, which never flew (random trivia fact; the first black astronaut selectee, Robert Lawrence Jr., was picked for MOL). Though I've also rarely seen DORIAN associated with other projects; http://www.nro.gov/Portals/65/documents/foia/declass/DORIAN/04-CONFIGURATIONS.PDF

    I knew getting "secret" tattooed on my crotch was a great idea. Now if you post those pics you'll have to deal with the American consulate in Australia! Ha ha!
