Aurora color guide! What creates the different shades?
Different atoms getting "excited" at different altitudes
The bright reds are a sign of a particularly intense event

You know why fall is the best season? Because it lacks a type of day people complain about.
Rainy? Great I want to watch football and use a crock pot
Unusually warm? Nice one more beach day before it gets cold
Chilly? Sweet first fire in the fireplace
Crisp and sunny? 💯

I'll bet two of them were the total solar eclipse and the aurora, because nature is amazing and so are shared experiences

Today was the first day of the season where the peak sun angle is below 45º. Below that mark, the human body does not synthesize Vitamin D anymore. So no more "grab that vitamin D" via solar until March. #EatYourSeafood

This is probably obvious, but what's the point of getting everyone vaccinated if we're still cancelling *outdoor* events in midsummer? And all restrictions end a few weeks after the 4th anyway (at the latest). You can go to a packed night club inside. Sigh.
