⚡ THIS IS NOT CGI. THIS IS LIGHTNING FROM SPACE. High above powerful thunderstorms, something incredible sometimes appears near the edge of space… glowing red shapes that look like giant jellyfish floating in the sky. They’re called Red Sprites. These massive electrical bursts form 30–50 miles above storms in...

Red sprites... These elusive electrical events occur high above thunderstorms, near the edge of space. Scientists know powerful lightning triggers them, but exactly why only certain storms produce them is still being studied. They’re so brief that most people will never witness one with their own eyes.

From International Space Station, we have a unique vantage point to observe lightning storms from directly above them. Much like from the ground, they appear as rapid, intense flashes that are over as quickly as they started. But, with the help of handheld cameras and a bit of practice (and, admittedly, some luck), we can capture these intense flashes with a very high frame rate then slow them down to see how the lightning propagates. It's lightning, in slow motion. This is one that occurred over Indonesia on 6/28. I shot it for a half second at 1/120 frame rate, so, 60 separate frames. I then compiled those frames into two videos: the first, in real-time, and the second, slowed down so that each frame is a half second to highlight the progression of the flash. Note the incredible burst of light in one frame, which includes what is likely a TLE on the upper left. A TLE, or Transient Luminous Event, is an electrical discharge that happens in the upper atmosphere above lightning storms (if you haven’t seen Ferry Farhan TLE photo from last week, head over to her page). As their name implies, these are transient, or short lived, phenomena – it appeared in only one frame of the sequence, lasting for no more than 1/120th of a second. The last photo is that single frame. Absolutely incredible.

Auroras lit up Alaska’s skies last night 🌌 A stunning reminder that Earth is protected by an invisible shield. When high-energy particles from the Sun race toward our planet, they collide with Earth’s magnetic field. Instead of reaching the surface, they’re steered along magnetic lines toward the poles, where they release their energy as glowing light high in the atmosphere. Without this powerful magnetic bubble, life on Earth simply wouldn’t exist.

Sky turned red over Jagannath Puri. On Maha Vishuba Sankranti. The Odia New Year. April 14, 2026. People called it beautiful. I didn’t. I felt a message. Because Jagannath Puri is not just a temple. It is a living cosmic architecture. A point where Bhuloka, the human world, connects to higher consciousness. For some this may be hard to grasp. This space responds. No birds cross above it. The flag moves against the wind. The shadow never touches on the ground. Call it anomaly. Or call it calibration. So when the sky turns blood red above this exact sacred geometry on the first day of the solar year… You don’t ignore it. You decode it. I went looking. Varahamihira wrote about this. In the Brihat Samhita. He called it Dik-Daha. Burning of the directions. Rakta Varna Akasha. A sky that turns to blood. His reading was clear. Agni rises. Mangal dominates. Mangal is Mars. The planet of war. The force of action. The energy that does not wait for permission. And Maa Kali… Not the Kali of fear. The Kali of Mahakaal. She who destroys what has expired. She who removes what blocks evolution. When Mangal and Kali align, it means one thing. The system is about to be reset. Look around. A Manufactured Energy Crisis is building. Fuel prices. Supply chains. Grid stress. When energy is controlled, movement is controlled. When movement is controlled, thought is controlled. The world is moving toward a reset. And the power centre is moving Eastward. Expect a Stock Market Crash. And then comes the trigger. Pakistan is unstable. But instability alone is not dangerous. Desperation is. A fractured state. A pressured army. A proxy pushed to the edge. History shows… such systems don’t collapse quietly. They create events. India will not choose war. But war will choose India. And this time, an endgame. Red is not just warning. Red is Sindoor. The mark of victory. Operation Sindoor is still ON. Inside Bharat… Structural shifts are coming. And the cosmos already spoke. Through Jagannath. Through Mangal. Through Kali. This is cleansing. Every civilization faces this fire. Most collapse. Few evolve. Bharat has faced it before. Bent. But never broken. So the red sky over Puri was not a coincidence. Because the cosmos does not warn, what it plans to destroy. It warns what it expects to rise. And this time… The signal was not subtle.

Stars and the Firmament💫 The water above the firmament consists of liquid oxygen, while the firmament itself is made of frozen, pure oxygen. Oxygen freezes at -218.79 degrees Celsius. As is well known, pure oxygen is blue when frozen. The higher you go, the colder and denser it becomes. This is also how the familiar wave effect is created when rockets launch into the sky. p/s These videos have gained me followers. They were filmed with a Nikon P1000 – the most powerful zoom camera on the market with 125x optical zoom!😉 And they write: Stars are not what we are led to believe. There is no space above the firmament of our planned and immobile Earth! I once told someone a long time ago that stars in videos look like light shining on the bottom of a public swimming pool. That makes perfect sense. "The waters above"💫😉

On April 26th, 2026, the Japan Meteorological Agency's Himawari-8 satellite captured a full day of Earth. Every ten minutes, for twenty-four hours, it photographed a complete hemisphere of the planet. One hundred forty-four individual photographs. No editing for content. No compositing. No CGI. No green screen. No hologram. No drawings. These are photographs, assembled into video. Himawari-8 is a geostationary weather satellite operated by Japan. It orbits at roughly twenty-two thousand miles above the equator, remaining fixed over one spot on the planet, orbiting at the same rate Earth rotates. It was launched in 2014. It takes photographs of Earth in visible light and infrared. It does this every ten minutes, every single day, year after year. These images are available to the public. Meteorologists worldwide use them for weather forecasting. News organizations use them. Scientists use them. You can access them yourself right now. What you're seeing over that twenty-four hour period is the terminator line moving -- the day-night boundary shifting as the planet's rotation carries different regions into and out of sunlight, all viewed from a fixed point in space. It is not a composite. It is not a trick. The curvature you see is not distortion. It is not perspective compression. It is the actual shape of the Earth as photographed by an independent satellite operated by a nation with no interest in perpetuating a NASA conspiracy. This is what Earth looks like from space. This is the globe holding atmosphere in place with gravity as you witness weather patterns moving across its surface. This is reality. (No fisheye lens was harmed in the making of this video.)

Beyond the clouds is a fascinating world. What you see here is a picture of a red sprite over a thunder cloud that I took as part of the Thor-Davis experiment from DTU Space ⚡Red sprites are part of the rare phenomena known as Transient Luminous Events, often shortened TLEs, that can appear over thunder clouds. The red sprites form around 40 to 80 km above ground and as you can see in the video from the Davis camera, the red sprites appear after the thunder has struck and much higher up. The Davis camera is special in that it does not take a picture like a regular camera, but like the retina in our eyes that is sensitive to changes in light, allowing it to take up to the equivalent of 100.000 pictures per second. This brings back memories of the blue jet I caught on camera on my first mission in 2015. / En verden over skyerne Det her er et billede af en rød fe over en tordensky, som jeg tog som en del af Thor-Davis-eksperimentet fra DTU. Røde feer er en del af de sjældne fænomener kendt som Transiente Luminous Events, ofte forkortet TLE'er, der dannes over tordenskyer. De røde feer dannes cirka 40 til 80 km over Jorden, og som du kan se i videoen fra Davis-kameraet, kommer tordenen først, hvorefter den røde fe opstår højere oppe. Davis-kameraet er specielt, fordi det ikke tager billeder som et almindeligt kamera, men som nethinden i vores øjne, der er følsom over for ændringer i lys og med det kan Davis kameraet tage op til hvad der svarer til 100.000 billeder pr. sekund. At se en rød fe minder mig om det blå lyn, jeg tog et billede af under min første mission i 2015.

The Sabotaging Practice of Over Supply and Sameness in the NFT Space. The current zeitgeist of the NFT space is that the same artists are doing the same kind of work five times a year, with project after project leaving a trail of disappointment and discontent among collectors and all of us watching in disbelief as huge resources are extracted from the space over work that feels like it could be left as an "artist study." I understand that you can do what you want with your money as collectors, but we are killing the whole space with this incestuous practice. No artist is that prolific to be able to do 5 collections of 100+ pieces each every year and actually deliver innovation and some kind of creative evolution. Of course, they can pretend play that the work has something new, but there is no precedent nor proof that that has ever happened in the speed that it happens in the NFT space. Again, people are free to through away their resources on whatever they want but with this way of doing things, we more and more are going to start seeing the consequences. Oh! There are consequences? Yes. Maybe unintended, but there are. Let's see. Let's start with the loss of belief in the NFT space as somewhere where emerging artists can come and find support for their experiments. Why even bother to bring experiments, innovation, and new ways to think of art on the blockchain if the same people have all the collectors hypnotized with their magical flutes? Why even try to come to a space where taking risks and challenging the status quo (the mission of art!!!) is overlooked? This makes the NFT space a social club and not a space for art. I guess it is fine, but IMO it is a recipe for disaster. New collectors stay away because the art will slowly but surely become stale and un-challenging. Why even bother to come and see what is happening here if you can't, as a collector, see new weird and up-and-coming artists? The amount of noise emitted by the same artists doing the same art over and over, drowns out any new voices. Again. A recipe for disaster. The NFT space is becoming a space of disappointment and doubt. We think that collections going to zero one after the other, over and over, is not damaging? I feel we are kidding ourselves. Disappointment piles up, and again, the people who will hurt are the emerging artists, the new blood, the ones who are willing to risk the most and, in return, put fire in this cold space of sameness. I love this space—don't get me wrong—it has changed my life, and I believe it has a ton of potential, but things need to change for it to become a beacon of light in art. But we need to support new voices. We need to support new ideas. The challenge is huge. I hope to contribute all I can to this change. I hope more and more see how exciting it is to go out and try to discover what else is out there and move this space forward. But again, I understand the leaps of faith needed, but if there is a space that is based on that, it's the NFT space...so there is hope. We will see. 📺by Boldtron

As the Space Shuttle powers through the sky, those massive Solid Rocket Boosters are doing the real muscle work —delivering millions of pounds of thrust to break free from Earth’s grip. Then, right on schedule… separation! With a dramatic jolt, the SRBs peel away from the shuttle and begin their long, blazing journey back toward the Atlantic. Flames, smoke, and pure physics at work What looks like a fiery goodbye is actually a smart comeback—parachutes deploy, the boosters splash down, and recovery teams are already on the move to bring them home for another mission Big rockets. Precise timing. Zero wasted hardware. Only NASA could make something this powerful look so elegant. Video credit: NASA

In 1520, Ferdinand Magellan’s expedition was the first European expedition to set foot in Patagonia and reported seeing giant people. The Europeans were described as reaching only up to their waists. Even the name Patagonia is related to giants in some interpretations: in one, Patagonia means “the land of the big foot,” and in another, Patagon was the name of a giant. Nevertheless, the name Patagonia is connected to the reported giant people. The descriptions come from Antonio Pigafetta, who sailed with Ferdinand Magellan and kept a detailed journal. Pigafetta writes: • “This man was so tall that we reached only to his waist.” Elsewhere, he calls them: • “Very big men… well proportioned.” And he repeatedly refers to them as: • “Giants.” The word giant (giganti) is used literally, not metaphorically. 👣 On their feet Pigafetta explains the name directly: • “They are called Patagoni because of their large feet.” He also records: • “They have a voice like a bull.” Today, mainstream scholarship generally rejects these accounts or interprets them as exaggerations, despite the fact that reports of giants appear in the traditions and records of many cultures around the world.

🚨 NASA IS ABOUT TO LET A PRIVATE SPACECRAFT RESCUE ONE OF ITS MOST IMPORTANT TELESCOPES. The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory has been hunting gamma-ray bursts the most powerful explosions in the universe since 2004. It’s still working perfectly, but Earth’s atmosphere has been slowly dragging it down toward a fiery reentry. Now, NASA is turning to a commercial company to save it. Katalyst Space Technologies’ robotic spacecraft Link will launch later this month, rendezvous with Swift, dock with it, and boost the telescope into a higher, safer orbit extending its life by years. Why this matters: • It’s the first time a private spacecraft will perform an orbital boost on a U.S. government science satellite • Swift remains one of the best tools we have for studying gamma-ray bursts and other high-energy cosmic events • Without this mission, the telescope could have deorbited as early as this year • It shows how commercial space companies are now capable of performing complex servicing missions that were once only possible for governments The deeper implication: We’re entering a new era where valuable scientific infrastructure in orbit doesn’t have to be considered disposable. Instead of building and launching entirely new telescopes when old ones start to decay, we can now extend their lives through commercial servicing. This approach is faster, cheaper, and more sustainable and it could become a standard model for protecting high-value space assets in the future. Sometimes the most important space missions aren’t about discovering something new. They’re about making sure we don’t lose what we already have. Would you support more commercial missions to rescue and extend aging space telescopes? Follow for more frontier space exploration, satellite servicing, and NASA missions.

Space objects such as meteoroids and asteroids move across the solar system and can collide with both Earth and the Moon. However, the Moon shows far more visible impact marks on its surface. One main reason is that Earth has a thick atmosphere that protects the planet. When many meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere, they burn up due to friction before they can reach the ground. This process creates the bright streaks of light we call shooting stars. The Moon, however, has almost no atmosphere, so incoming space rocks are not slowed down or burned up. They travel directly to the lunar surface and strike it at very high speed. Each collision creates an impact crater, throwing dust and rocks outward from the impact point. Over billions of years, thousands of these impacts have covered the Moon with craters. Unlike Earth, the Moon also has no wind, water, or weather to erase these craters, so they remain visible for millions or even billions of years. This is why the Moon looks heavily cratered when we observe it from Earth through telescopes.

Pigafetta writes: • “This man was so tall that we reached only to his waist.” Elsewhere, he calls them: • “Very big men… well proportioned.” And he repeatedly refers to them as: • “Giants.” The word giant (giganti) is used literally, not metaphorically. 👣 On their feet Pigafetta explains the name directly: • “They are called Patagoni because of their large feet.” He also records: • “They have a voice like a bull.” Today, mainstream scholarship generally rejects these accounts or interprets them as exaggerations, despite the fact that reports of giants appear in the traditions and records of many cultures around the world. The fires in Patagonia today might be connected to something else...

In 1520, Ferdinand Magellan’s expedition was the first European expedition to set foot in Patagonia and reported seeing giant people. The Europeans were described as reaching only up to their waists. Even the name Patagonia is related to giants in some interpretations: in one, Patagonia means “the land of the big foot,” and in another, Patagon was the name of a giant. Nevertheless, the name Patagonia is connected to the reported giant people. The descriptions come from Antonio Pigafetta, who sailed with Ferdinand Magellan and kept a detailed journal.

This is the mechanical heart of every flight deck. At the core of this instrument is a high-speed mechanical gyroscope held within a series of gimbals. It relies on the physics of rigidity in space, meaning the spinning disc stays perfectly aligned with the Earth's horizon regardless of how the aircraft moves around it. When you see the outer casing tilt and dive, you are actually watching the plane move while the instrument stays perfectly still. For decades, this was the primary way pilots survived flying through thick cloud cover or at night. Without a visible horizon, the human brain can easily become disoriented, leading to a deadly condition called the graveyard spin. This device provides an objective visual reference that never fails, even if the entire electrical system of the plane goes dark. While modern airliners have transitioned to digital screens and solid-state sensors, these analog units remain critical. Many pilots still prefer them as a fail-safe backup because they operate on pure physics rather than software. It is a masterclass in engineering that remains just as relevant in the age of automation as it was eighty years ago. It is a timeless piece of safety technology.

🚨 A SATELLITE JUST REVEALED SOMETHING SHOCKING: GPS JAMMING IS FAR MORE WIDESPREAD THAN ANYONE REALIZED. An experimental navigation satellite called Pulsar-0, flying just 500 km above Earth, has mapped GPS signal tampering from space for the first time and the scale surprised even the engineers who built it. As soon as the satellite passed over Europe and parts of the Middle East, its GPS receiver showed massive signal degradation. In the worst areas, signal strength dropped from a normal 40 decibels all the way down to just 10 decibels. Why this matters: • Ground-based jammers (used in conflicts like Ukraine and the Middle East) are now reaching all the way into low Earth orbit • Satellites like Starlink that rely on GPS for collision avoidance and positioning are being affected across a huge region from France to the borders of Pakistan • When GPS drops out, satellites can’t accurately point their antennas, maintain formation, or safely maneuver • This isn’t just a military problem it threatens the growing network of commercial satellites we increasingly depend on The deeper implication: We’ve long known that GPS signals on the ground can be jammed. What we didn’t fully appreciate is how far those jamming signals reach into space. Even satellites in low Earth orbit the backbone of global communications, Earth observation, and future mega-constellations are now operating in an increasingly hostile electromagnetic environment. Xona’s upcoming constellation aims to fix this with signals 100 times stronger than traditional GPS. But the bigger question remains: as more nations and groups weaponize jamming and spoofing, how resilient will our orbital infrastructure actually be? How concerned are you that GPS jamming is now reaching into space and affecting satellites? Follow for more frontier space technology and the hidden vulnerabilities of our orbital systems.

During training, you visit many of the facilities that will eventually play a role in your mission. Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39A was one of them. This visit felt different. Standing at the base of the tower and looking up, I was reminded that this is the very place from which Neil Armstrong and his crewmates began their journey to the Moon. The facility has evolved over the decades and has been modernized for a new era of spaceflight, but it still carries the weight of its history. You can feel it. Then there is the elevator. Inside, there are only two buttons: Earth and Space. A simple design choice, perhaps, but one that feels remarkably profound when launch day finally arrives. What you see here is me at the top of the launch pad, with the Falcon 9 yet to make its way out. The rocket is transported to the pad horizontally and then raised to a vertical position before launch. Standing there, it was impossible not to imagine the events that would soon unfold. At this very time last year, all of this was happening in real time. Looking back now, it feels both distant and incredibly close. #shux #space #shubhanshushukla #india #axiom4

This driver is trying to ma a left turn and the car on the opposite side stops and makes a path for them to turn. As the car starts to turn, an electric bike in the bike lane comes speeding down and well, as you can see, smashes into the car and flips over the front. Luckily he gets up and is walking. He could have been seriously injured. To me, this is quite literally why they say you’re not supposed to just stop in the middle of a street to let someone turn. Some are saying it’s the red car’s fault for stopping and letting the driver turn. Others are saying in their state, an electric bike is like a motorcycle and has to obey the traffic laws. Who is at fault? Do you think the electric bike should have been in the bike lane traveling that fast? The red car for letting the car turn left when it can’t see, or is it the drivers responsibility to make sure all is clear before proceeding?

Red pill drop #6: Warning: some of these pills that I'll be dropping for the foreseeable future. Will be a hard pill to swallow. Some would like to wait until the movie is over to get all of the Intel in 1 drop. If that is you, feel free to ignore these threads. Warning: The video at the end of this drop is very graphic. Proceed with caution. Red cross and abortion clinics are scams. Doesn't make a difference if you're for them or against. Whatever, your reason for using them makes no difference. The cabal controls them all. The blood is harvested from them and sent to the red cross, to be processed. The aborted fetuses and babies are sold to the Black market starting from $300 and up. The older the aborted baby, the higher the price goes. They are then sent to foreign factories, via green container ship[evergreen] for organ harvesting. That is what the video shows. So Proceed with caution upon viewing. In logistics[transportation] the cargo container ships are color coded. Blue is military[govt] red is consumer goods, white is for factory parts, yellow for chemicals, green are for human trafficking. Whether, organs, blood, people, etc. The blood processed is used to make a chemical compound called Adrenochrome. This chemical is used by cabal members to keep looking younger. The adrenal glands produce adrenaline. This is used for oxidation to produce this drug. The cabal believes the younger the child, the more potent the drug Adrenochrome can be. The more potent rich blood they need is actually from Africans and/or African Americans. Which is why they produce famine throughout Africa, and release diseases there, are sorts of vaccines, etc, than any place in the world for genocide. Just look at Haiti. They get most of the children from there. Predominantly, all of the abortion clinics are predominantly in African American neighborhoods. And when they're done with them. We'll this part I'm hesitant to say. Without posting graphic details. Let's just say. They wear and dance with their faces at parties. Then partake of it, like delicacies. It's where they get the tradition of Black Face. The Caucasian children are the main ones sex trafficked. When they're done. Again, without going into explicit details. Let's just say they're partook of. This cabal is sick. All will be exposed. All will be revealed. No deals. And no quarters given. All will get the rope for the world to see.

Strikes on the rear of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (and again, Dnipropetrovsk) - the consequences - what the "objective control" footage shows... The enemy is much better at concealing the results of their strikes than we are, and therefore there is relatively little footage of their effectiveness. Usually, such footage appears from moving vehicles (which is almost impossible for the Security Service of Ukraine to track). And it is precisely such footage that shows the scale of the consequences of today's strikes on Dnipropetrovsk and its surroundings. As we can see from the video, there are THREE major fire outbreaks in the city (they say the main oil depots have been hit). Not to mention smaller ones (like gas stations). By the way, about the gas stations. Judging by the fact that not only footage of burning gas stations is appearing online, but also footage of strikes on them (the latest video), we can see that this is indeed very precise work by our "heroes". And it's almost impossible to cover all the gas stations. And if this becomes a practice for the enemy, they will start having major logistical problems. Subscribe
