I will soon celebrate the one-year anniversary of my cross-country trek from southern California to New Jersey, as well as my birthday. Anniversaries are good opportunities to stop and take stock of things, to imagine what could have been done…
The predicted shockwave slammed into our magnetosphere last light just as expected (thanks, science!), and further waves of particles in that blast that will likely continue the storm tonight (September 8th). If you missed it last night, you might get a second chance.
As you read this, a blast wave of trillions of energetic particles is bearing down on us, with impact expected in just hours. The resulting auroras will fill the skies in many Northern areas with shimmering green, red and blue….
With recent events in Virginia, many people are shocked that in 2017, there are still neo-Nazis, KKK members, skinheads, and white supremacists in large, organized numbers in America. To better understand how this is the case, we need first to…
