During sunset, a cloud flew in in an amazing shape (a bird, a dragon, and maybe an angel ...)
A little understanding of the physics of cloud formation underscores the complexity of the atmosphere and sheds light on why predicting weather for more than a few days is such a challenge.
Six types of clouds you can see and how they can help you understand the weather.
1) Cumulus clouds - On a sunny day, rays warm the earth, which heats the air located directly above it. The heated air rises upward due to convection and forms cumulus clouds. These “good weather” clouds are like cotton wool. If you look at the sky filled with cumulus clouds, you can see that they have a flat bottom, located at the same level for all clouds. At this altitude, air rising from ground level cools down to the dew point. It usually doesn't rain from cumulus clouds, which means the weather will be good.
2) Cumulonimbus clouds.
Small cumulus clouds do not rain, but if they grow and grow in height, it is a sign that heavy rain is coming soon. This often happens in summer when morning cumulus clouds turn into cumulonimbus during the day. Cumulonimbus clouds often have a flat top. Air convection occurs inside such a cloud, and it gradually cools until it reaches the temperature of the surrounding atmosphere. At this moment, it loses its buoyancy and can no longer rise higher. Instead, it spreads out to the sides, forming the characteristic anvil shape.
3) Cirrus clouds form in very high layers of the atmosphere. They are smoky because they are composed entirely of ice crystals falling in the atmosphere. When cirrus clouds are carried by winds moving at different speeds, they take on a characteristic curved shape. And only at very high altitudes or at high latitudes, cirrus clouds give out rain that reaches the ground.
4) Stratus Clouds - A low-lying, continuous cloud sheet that covers the sky. Stratus clouds are formed by slowly rising air or gentle winds that cover the cold land or sea surface with moist air. Stratus clouds are thin, therefore, despite the gloomy picture, it is unlikely to rain from them, a little drizzle at most. Stratus clouds are identical to fog, so if you've ever walked in a mountainous area on a foggy day, you've been inside a cloud.
5) Lenticular clouds. Smooth and lenticular lenticular clouds form when air is blown up and over a mountain range, and as it travels over a mountain, the air descends to its previous level. At this time, it heats up and the cloud evaporates. But it can slip further, as a result of which the air rises again and forms another lenticular cloud. This can result in a chain of clouds extending far beyond the mountain range. The interaction of wind with mountains and other surface features is one of the many details that must be taken into account in computer simulations to obtain accurate weather predictions.
6) Kelvin - Helmholtz like a breaking ocean wave. When air masses at different heights move horizontally at different speeds, their state becomes unstable. The boundary between the air masses begins to ripple and form large waves, such clouds are quite rare.

Ice encroaches on a wetland pond under gray December skies.
Water’s maximum density is achieved at near 40 degrees F and it is less dense when warmer or cooler. For this reason, ice in water bodies forms from the surface down, rather than the bottom up, with immense consequence for aquatic life, the integrity of aquatic ecosystems, waterfowl, ice skaters, and cubes of ice in a glass.
Trying my hand at some landscape shots! 😊
You know I scream in my dreams like an animal
I know it feels like it's wrong to be something else
We know those thoughts live with us
sunk down, them nerves much thinner
I crawl, you sob
No sanctuary found
When daylight finally falls
Until the morning comes
My eyes can't see
But I can feel
What is it?
Object: The Sights in Auriga– (HST or SHO palette) – 2022
A widefield view of part of the constellation of Auriga (The Charioteer)
The field contains:
Left side of frame -IC405 (The Flaming Star Nebula -aka SH2-229 or Caldwell 31) an emission/reflection nebula in the northern part of Auriga. It surrounds the irregular, blue star AE Auriga and is about 1500 light years from Earth.
Center upper right - IC410 (The Tadpoles Nebula) a dusty emission nebula/stellar nursery at about 12.000 light years from Earth that illuminated by the star cluster NGC1893 which is about 4 million years old so still relatively young. The nebula is noted for the ”tadpole” structures that have been created by the radiation pressure from the stars in NGC189.
Right side of frame - IC417 (The Spider Nebula) – An emission nebula lit up by massive hot stars that is currently producing new stars. It is located about 10,000 light years from Earth.

Aula Technical University Delft.
The Aula of the Technical University in Delft located on the north side of the campus was built from 1959 to 1966 by the Dutch practice Van den Broek & Bakema. The building houses an auditorium with 1300 seats, four trapezoid lecture halls with 250 to 350 seats, the senate hall and the university cafeteria. The auditorium is connected via a walkway to the Physics Department. In an earlier draft, the project from 1958 the project included an administrative tower which was not realised.
The auditorium looms above the main entrance. The hall is shaped like a saucer (hence the building's nickname "the UFO") and is supported by triangular concrete columns. The lecture halls at the rear are supported by a similar construction. To support the 15 metre overhang prestressed concrete had to be used. The ends of the prestressing cables are left exposed. The building has a collapsed roof. Steel frames were used for the exterior walls.
Besides the auditorium Van den Broek and Bakema also designed the campus' boiler house and thee Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture. The cafeteria on the ground floor was refurbished in 1998/99 according to a design by Mecanoo.

A 4:30am alarm with a quick stop at the Dunkin drive-thru got me to the New Jersey Festival of Ballooning in time to experience what it takes to unfurl, inflate and fly a hot air balloon. It's been years since I've done this and it was a beautiful morning to be amongst all the dedication and skill these crews have.
On another note, felt like it was time to update my profile pic. As much as I liked the old one, it looked more like a high school yearbook pic at this point. Lol!
John Bolin donated some beautiful images....thank you!!! :

The "Nonlocal Light Cone Entanglement" fine art photography series celebrates my physics theory: Light, Time, Dimension Theory dx4/dt=ic: The fourth dimension is expanding at the velocity of light c, giving rise to quantum nonlocality and entanglement, as well as relativity.
Please read more about my theoretical physics research here:
geni.us/dr-elliot-mcgucken-art
I've penned a few books centered around Light, Time, Dimension Theory dx4/dt=ic:
geni.us/mcgucken-physics-books
Proof of the Nonlocality of a Light Cone’s Surface:
Consider a pair of entangled photons which travel in opposite directions from the origin in the x1, x2 plane.
No matter how far apart they travel, they will remain entangled, meaning that their two positions will define a nonlocality.
Now consider numerous entangled pairs of photons, wherein the two photons in each pair travel away from the origin in opposite directions.
Together, the positions of the photons in all the entangled pairs of photons will by and by define a circle of nonlocality as the number of pairs of photons approaches infinity.
Now consider a third axis which is time. Together, the positions of the photons in all the entangled pairs of photons will define a conical surface of nonlocality.
Ergo, the surface of a light cone is a nonlocality.
The surface of a light cone is thus nonlocal.

I was one of those kids who actually liked going back to school. It was a place for hands-on discovery. For Macro Monday's theme: back to school
A rare view of the moon setting over the Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco. Atmospheric refraction is clearly visible in this photo, where light is bent around the earth by the atmosphere acting like a lens, which also gives rise to the elliptical shape of the moon you see here. The redness is due to Rayleigh scattering and is also what gives rise to red sunsets.
Almost all real photographs of moonsets or sunsets this close to the horizon -- in this case, only a couple of degrees -- will typically show some degree of squashing or distortion.

In 1965 I worked as a Radar repairman for the Applied Physics Lab of John Hopkins University (APL/JHU) at Wallops Island, Virginia. This was one of three radar units we maintained. I was 22 and had just gotten out of the Air Force and was trying to establish credit. The name of the company "Applied Physics Lab of John Hopkins University" gave me some trouble. Besides the length of the name, One place that I filled out a credit application asked for the name of the company I worked for. So I wrote in "Applied Physics Lab of John Hopkins University" they waited a couple days and then called and told me once I had been accepted at the Physics Lab of John Hopkins they would give me credit.
