Mastodawn

Welp, time to switch to my 4th Mastodon instance. Maybe *some* centralization isn't so bad.

Really wish it would move posts and media over, it feels like needlessly chopping off limbs just to regrow them.

Result of 17 days exposure of my Gold SolarCan Puck to the northern, autumnal, Australian sun. The weather sealing band worked great! #SolarCan #solargraph

Some more exotic wildlife crawling around the windows. The jumping spider doing it's best impression of a cute, begging puppy.

It's no UFO... but always amazing to see. Early yesterday morning, the all-sky camera at Poker Flats, Alaska caught something strange along with the usual green bands of aurora - an expanding blue spiral: https://vimeo.com/818040730 - The culprit: a SpaceX Falcon-9 launch from Vandenberg three hours earlier, with the Transporter-7 rideshare launch. The spiral was the fuel vent from the discarded second stage booster, spinning and creating an ephemeral 'galaxy' in the Sun overhead.
