Everyone loved the supermoon, but all they got were these lousy photos
The iPhone is the main blame for wretched photos of the supermoon last night.. Truly a breathtaking moment ruined by photography at its worst at night. I’d imagine the people of 2033, during the next blood moon eclipse , will get a mighty chuckle is the current batch of photos still exists.
Syria’s civil war has forced scientists to request the first-ever withdrawal of seeds from a Doomsday vault built in the Arctic to safeguard the world’s food supplies, officials said Friday.
Experts working to conserve and grow cereals with strong resistance to drought and warmer global temperatures can no longer rely on their facility in the war-torn country’s city of Aleppo because it has been occupied by armed factions.
The International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) said it has made a request to take back some of its samples from the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. The vault was created by the Norwegian government in 2008 to protect vital crops such as wheat against global disasters, war or disease.
It will be the first time seeds have been withdrawn from the facility, which lies more than 800 miles inside Arctic Circle — midway between Norway and the North Pole — and is the largest vault of its kind in the world. Built into the mountainside on the Svalbard archipelago, it relies on permafrost and thick rock to ensure that the seed samples will remain frozen even without power.
9/26/2015 — New York struck by rare M3.0 Earthquake
The media isn’t reporting it..
But proof is here: The USGS has the numbers..
So far the 9/23/15 asteroid NEVER hit.. I doubt the lunar lunacy will end the planet, either.
Sadly the day the REAL end comes via space rock or sun spot, we’ll be ill-prepared due to our busy nature of listening and giving credit to false prophets who deserve none..
Firm behind Apple’s Spaceship HQ reveals plans for Mars habitat
And it’s going to be future shock for some..
‘The design of the habitat – carried out in collaboration with industrial and academic partners – envisions a robust 3D-printed dwelling for up to four astronauts constructed using regolith – the loose soil and rocks found on the surface of Mars,’ it said.The settlement on Mars will be constructed by an array of pre-programmed, semi-autonomous robots prior to the eventual arrival of the astronauts. The habitat will be delivered in two stages prior to the arrival of the astronauts. First, the semi-autonomous robots select the site and dig a 1.5 metre deep crater, followed by a second delivery of the inflatable modules which sit within the crater to form the core of the settlement.

The Fed’s Confusing Message About Interest Rate Increases
FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES:
Economists always warn, correctly, not to make too much of any single economic report, but rather to analyze new information in terms of longer-term trends.
At the same time, Federal Reserve officials, up to and including Fed chair and ace economist Janet Yellen, keep saying they will raise interest rates this year as long as there are no rude surprises in the economic data – as if Fed policy depends on the next data point, the next report.
