Here’s an interesting claim, that reads like a kid trying not to get his parents in trouble, explaining to cops on a domestic violence call, especially because he knows the creepy neighbour who would dial that.
Being a kid, he doesn’t know the details, like how fast (high energy) cosmic particles can flux some magmas stiffer so they’re more prone to explode. Like Toba, and more recently Tambora (1815) and Krakatoa (late 1800’s). Kid will probably blow up himself, one day, and get in to history too.

The Sun Flashed a Giant Heart at Earth This Week, And We Love It
http://www.sciencealert.com/images/2025/09/sun-heart.jpg
In what we can only interpret as a show of solidarity for the Solar System's beleaguered dwarf planet Pluto, the Sun put its heart prominently on its sleeve atmosphere.
On the side of the Sun facing Earth, a giant coronal hole appeared in the shape of an enormous love heart, many times the size of Earth, blasting a powerful stream of solar particles across the Solar System.
Coronal holes aren't actual holes in the Sun. They are regions where the Sun's magnetic field weakens, allowing the constant wind of solar particles to escape more easily and powerfully, sending gusts of solar particles through the Solar System.
Solar activity is likely to continue declining over the next few years as we emerge from the peak of its 11-year activity cycle, known as solar maximum. Coronal holes, however, are just one facet of the Sun's behavior. With a recent report from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory indicating a gradual increase in the strength of the solar wind since 2008, we may see more activity than expected as we head towards Solar Cycle 26.
And if it wasn't clear: We love you, too, Sun.

Low Flaring But Active Surface
Today’s top story: Flare production has been low over the past day, but the sun’s surface has been active, as we saw by action on the periphery. We saw gorgeous long-lasting prominences in the sun’s southeast and southwest. However, an increase in flare activity is anticipated, as two active regions, AR4220 and AR4216, have now developed a gamma in their magnetic configurations.
Meanwhile at Earth this weekend, we should start receiving the fast solar wind produced by the large heart-shaped coronal hole reported recently. Accompanied by the arrival of a co-rotating interaction region (CIR), this may bring interesting geomagnetic activity – and auroras – to Earth.

UFO Shoots Across Ocean At Svarte, Skåne County, Sweden Aug 10, 2025, UAP Sighting News
Eyewitness:
Video was shot in super slow motion (Samsung mobile).
I made a super slow-motion video of my daughter after reading about a man in the Malvern Hills who claimed he captured a UFO while playing with his dog. While reviewing the footage, I zoomed in on her face because she was making a hilarious expression. Accidentally, that’s when I noticed it — something moving from left to right across the screen.
NUFORC Note: Small object moving extremely fast is barely visible in real time footage.

NASA Confirms 6,000 Exoplanets

The official number of exoplanets, planets outside our solar system, confirmed by NASA has reached 6,000. Thirty years ago, the first exoplanet was discovered around a Sun-like star. Since then, that number has rapidly increased as technologies improve. There are thousands of additional candidate planets awaiting confirmation, and each confirmed planet enables scientists to learn more about the conditions under which planets can form, how common planets like Earth might be and where to look for them.

Sunday, Sept. 21 - New moon Partial Solar Eclipse

On Sunday, Sept. 21 at 3:54 p.m. EDT or 12:54 p.m. PDT and 19:54 GMT, the moon will officially reach its new moon phase. At that time, our natural satellite will join the sun in Virgo. While new, the moon is travelling between Earth and the sun. Since sunlight can only illuminate the far side of the moon, and the moon is in the same region of the sky as the sun, it is usually completely hidden from view from anywhere on Earth for about a day. This new moon, however, will deliver a very deep partial solar eclipse that will only be visible from New Zealand, eastern Melanesia, southern Polynesia, and western Antarctica.

On Monday, Sept. 22 at 2:19 p.m. EDT, 11:19 a.m. PDT, or 18:19 GMT, the sun's apparent motion along the ecliptic (green line) will carry it across the celestial equator, traveling southward, marking the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of autumn there. On the equinoxes in March and September, day and night are of equal length and the sun rises due east and sets due west.
Tuesday, Sept. 23 - Neptune at opposition (all night)
http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/axTz3eT3Jx6fRx5Z4uCohj-970-80.jpg
On Tuesday night, Sept. 23, Neptune will reach opposition. At that time, the distant planet will be closest to Earth for this year — a distance of "merely" 2.68 billion miles, 4.32 billion km, 4 light-hours, or 28.9 Astronomical Units. At opposition, blue Neptune will shine with a slightly enhanced magnitude of 7.8. Since it will be opposite the sun in the sky, Neptune will be visible all night long in backyard telescopes and good binoculars (orange circle).
Around opposition, Neptune's apparent disk size will peak at 2.4 arc-seconds and its large moon Triton will be the most visible (inset). Throughout September, Neptune will be located a short distance to the left of much brighter Saturn, both planets below (or celestial southeast of) the circle of stars that forms Pisces' western fish.

Earth’s Ozone Layer on Track to Recovery in Coming Decades: World Meteorological Organization
http://cdn.sci.news/images/2013/02/banner_site.png
The ozone layer is healing and the Antarctic ozone hole in 2024 was smaller than in previous years, according to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).
https://cdn.sci.news/images/2022/10/image_11340-Ozone-Hole.jpg
This map shows the size and shape of the ozone hole over the South Pole on October 5, 2022, when it reached its single-day maximum extent for the year. Image credit: Joshua Stevens / NASA’s Earth Observatory.
The depth of 2024 Antarctic ozone hole — which appears over the Antarctic every spring — was below the 1990-2020 average, with a maximum ozone mass deficit of 46.1 million tons on September 29.
It was smaller than the relatively large holes between 2020 and 2023.
Its onset was relatively slow, and delayed ozone depletion was observed through the month of September, followed by a relatively rapid recovery after the maximum deficit was reached.
“This persistent later onset has been identified as a robust indication of initial recovery of the Antarctic ozone hole,” WMO experts said in a statement.
If current policies remain in place, the ozone layer is expected to recover to 1980 values (before the appearance of the ozone hole) by around 2066 over the Antarctic, by 2045 over the Arctic and by 2040 for the rest of the world, according to the most recent assessment in 2022.

Facts: The Graceful Stingrays
http://www.treehugger.com/thmb/TbW3xBld6eAUiJvuoUBu7rmXIak=/750x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/GettyImages-1084272706-67e82d99d00447dd9cd0567739e51e18.jpg
Stingrays Are Carnivores
Stingrays are purely carnivorous, preying on animals that live on or under the sand. A study that examined diet reconstruction in southern stingrays along the Caribbean found that stingrays fed primarily on crustaceans, ray-finned fish, and worms. Supplemental research found that the species consumed at least 65 prey types — as many as 30 each day.
They Move by Flapping Their 'Wings'
Stingrays may look like they’re flying through the water, but a closer look will reveal a graceful flapping motion propelling them through. Most species undulate their bodies to get from place to place, moving like an underwater wave, but others tend to flap their sides up and down like wings.
Stingray Babies Are Born Fully Developed
Babies, called pups, can swim and feed immediately after being born, and most species require no parental care.
http://www.treehugger.com/thmb/-AQPQSxfDIFwoX46fGYEQL5BkzU=/750x0/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()/GettyImages-1270565273-072da99b22214db79e9e972da862f094.jpg
Females Are Larger Than Males
Not only do females reach sexual maturity faster than males, they tend to live longer. Among round stingrays, a particularly fast-growing species, females and males reach 58% and 70% of their full size, respectively, within the first year of life.
They Are Venomous
Stingrays have long, thin tails with between one and three venomous barbs attached, and the sting usually causes immense pain, risk of infection at the wound site, and occasionally death.
They Sleep in the Sand
While resting, stingrays bury their bodies in the sand, leaving their defensive barb sticking out to protect themselves as they sleep. This can be problematic in areas where humans enter the water, so it is recommended that beachgoers do the “stingray shuffle” to produce vibrations in the sand and warn stingrays of their presence.
The Stingray Shuffle
(0:52)
0AWBjIM2Ec0
There Are More Than 200 Species of Stingrays
Experts estimate that there are about 220 different species of stingrays across the world’s oceans, lakes, and freshwater rivers.
Some Species Chew Their Food
Biologists at University of Toronto filmed freshwater stingrays munching on soft fish, shrimp, and hard-shelled dragonfly nymphs using high-speed cameras. The findings suggested that mammals and stingrays had evolved similar methods of breaking down food independently of each other. Before that, mammals were believed to be the only animals to chew their food.
They Lived at the Same Time as Dinosaurs
In 2019, a team from the Institute of Paleontology of the University of Vienna discovered a fossil stingray dated at over 50 million years old. The research provided new links to radiation caused by the aftermath of the Cretaceous mass extinction event. Further molecular data suggested that modern stingrays diverged from a sister group during the Late Jurassic, about 150 million years ago.

They Can Get Pretty Large
In 2009, a giant freshwater stingray was caught and released in Thailand that measured 14 feet long and between 700 and 800 pounds.
They Can Detect Magnetic Fields
Scientists conducted tests on yellow stingrays in 2020 to prove the animals could use Earth’s magnetic field to maintain their sense of direction while navigating through their environment. They found evidence that not only proved stingrays could detect changes within the geomagnetic field but also that they could use the field to their advantage by orienting themselves and maintaining a heading during navigation.

This ranch is the most visited ground on all of Avalon, and so deserves the best news. Here is news of a huge step for humanity. Come with me, invest in this gadget, and together we will drink our choice of drinks (for me, 1:3 or so Drambuie with water, with wild blueberries same fraction, turning it purple…royal, I call it DramBB) at my private island, somewhere warm.
Big scoop maybe? Stock in this thread is a good bet, for discretionary interest.
I’ve followed Dr. Lerner for more than a couple years, about his ion fusion-energy work, and this described process is new to me. It’s something different, and is claimed to be so good as to be a paradigm shifting development. Normal Hydrogen, and the most common isotope of Boron, shake AND stir. And presto, all our problems will be taillights-down-the-road.

On July 13, 2025, LPPFusion Chief Scientist Eric Lerner gave an up-to-date presentation on LPPFusion’s Fastest Route to Fusion at a forum in Holmdel, NJ. Given Lerner’s work in cosmology, it was maybe a bit ironic that the event was “The Big Bang Mile”. In Episode 3 of this series, Lerner explains the radical alternative approach to fusion energy based on hydrogen-boron fuel. This fuel can make possible far cheaper and more compact energy sources that have ever existed.
Our videos come out of LPPFusion’s research in astrophysics and fusion energy. This work is paving the way for the development in this decade of a source of cheap, clean, safe, unlimited and decentralized energy. Fusion energy will provide a future without pollution, with a sustainable environment, with abundance for all. The price of all goods, housing, infrastructure would fall drastically, lifting the standard of living for all.

MARS
Why does Mars look purple, yellow and orange in ESA's stunning satellite image?
http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/8qvitrhcyVDNEpkwTjvnb.jpg
Surprising colors and features are captured in a new image of Mars' surface.
Despite being known as the Red Planet, Mars shows off its swirling yellows, oranges and browns in a new satellite photo from the European Space Agency (ESA). The Earth-toned surface also reveals an impact crater and four sneaky dust devils making their way across the region.
The Rothko-like image was taken by a high-resolution camera on ESA’s Mars Express orbiter and captures Arcadia Planitia, an area of Mars critical to research about the planet’s past and its potential to house humans in the future.
If you noticed that the image is blurry, you're discerning an effect of the wind on Mars. Gusts of air pick up and carry tiny particles of debris from the planet's surface, which creates a minor visual haze.
The wind that causes the haze is also responsible for the reddish area at the top of the photo. The red region is covered in ridges called "yardangs," which are formed when wind erodes vulnerable rock and leaves the most resistant rock still standing.
Below the red section is purplish-brown terrain, which has a high concentration of silicates and a low concentration of iron, the statement notes. The difference in colors also stems from properties of the sand, like density and size, which affect how the grains accumulate and travel across Mars.

Mars' atmosphere has been of interest to scientists for decades, especially as humanity looks to set up outposts on the Red Planet. Recently, the European Space Agency's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter gave us a more detailed look at the thin shell of air that sits above the limb of Mars.
Mars' atmosphere is extremely thin and is composed of mostly carbon dioxide, with small amounts of nitrogen, argon and trace gases thrown in. Yet despite its thinness, it's far from static, as Mars' air can whip up dust storms that help shape short term weather.
Creating a composite photograph of the images taken by the Color and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) aboard the Trace Gas Orbiter, ESA scientists found that the dust and gas layers of Mars' atmosphere are delicate and sit close together, similar to a "mille-fueille" pastry.

These female divers spend more time underwater than any other humans
The way Korea’s Haenyeo divers push human physiology to extremes is surprising
http://i0.wp.com/www.sciencenews.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/081525_br_diving-women_feat.jpg?resize=1030%2C580&ssl=1
The Haenyeo women who dive deep into the East China Sea to harvest sea urchins and shellfish spend the most time underwater of any humans ever studied, researchers report August 18 in Current Biology.
“It’s as close as you get to studying a mermaid,” says Chris McKnight, a marine mammal biologist at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland.
McKnight and colleagues worked with seven Haenyeo divers who live on Jeju Island in South Korea. Over 1,786 dives, the women wore devices that measured how long they stayed underwater and how deep they dove. The devices also tracked oxygen levels in the women’s brains and muscles.
http://api.cdn.visitjeju.net/photomng/imgpath/202202/16/f1ca3d6c-8bdd-4cca-83e3-e3e45d20c7c3.jpg
The women dove repeatedly for two to 10 hours each day and spent an average of 56 percent of the time beneath the surface — more underwater time than many aquatic mammals, including beavers, polar bears and sea otters, the researchers say.
Chronicles of female divers in this part of Asia date back 3,000 years. Researchers have studied the divers in the lab, but the team wanted to monitor them in a real-life setting to put their abilities in context with other water-dwelling mammals. Studying the Haenyeo women’s physiological adaptations may shed light on how the ancestors of whales and other marine mammals successfully transitioned from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment, McKnight says.

A TRIP TO UNKNOWN PLACES. December 9, 1954, farmer Giovanni Aquilante of Gricignano D’Aversa, Italy went missing. Two days later, he reappeared with an incredible story to tell. He said he had encountered two small humanoids who had lifted him into the sky. He couldn’t remember much of what happened to him and came back confused and traumatized. He was also healed of a serious bone disease.
TWO BEINGS APPROACHED US. On the night of July 10, 1965, a couple was motorbiking in the forests outside of Ganserndorf, Austria when a large disc-shaped craft hovered overhead and landed in a nearby field. They approached on their bike, but the engine failed. Walking on foot, they were shocked to see two tall humanoids in uniforms observing them. Shortly later, the ETs returned to their craft and flew away.
LITTLE MEN OF GREAT LEARNING. On September 10, 1965, Antonio da Silva was in his farm fields in Pau Ferro. Brazil when two small silver discs landed nearby. Two little men about 3 feet tall emerged and approached Antonio, speaking a foreign language. Antonio was terrified but said that the men seemed very friendly. After a short meeting, the little men returned to their craft and departed the area.
THE SING-SONG ALIENS. On July 17, 1967, a group of young children were playing in the fields outside the small town of Arc-Sous-Cicon, France. One of the little girls was shocked to encounter four little men in black suits. She ran off. Soon another witness saw and heard the beings. Afterwards, strange marks were found in the field and over the next two nights, a wave of UFO sightings hit the area.
SOMETHING UNUSUAL AND EXTRAORDINARY. On the night of September 25, 1967, a young, engaged couple was driving through the hills outside of Sant Feliu de Codines, Spain when their headlights illuminated a strange figure in the road. They described it as short, fat, green, with long arms and thick legs. It walked directly in front of their vehicle, so close they almost struck it. The couple drove off in fear.
I THINK THEY TRIED TO TAKE ME. On the night of March 17, 1986, farmer Rito Melgarejo was walking home in Santa Ana, Argentina when a flying saucer hovered and then landed in front of him. He was paralyzed in fear as two small humanoids in jumpsuits emerged. They spoke a strange language and used hand signals to persuade Rito to come onboard the craft. Terrified, Rito turned and ran.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN ALIENS? One night in Fall 2008, Valerie woke up in her home in Breezewood, Pennsylvania to see a strange praying mantis reptilian humanoid standing by her bed. She was unable to move as the being told her telepathically that it wanted to borrow something from her and promised to return it. Valerie protested. Moments later, it departed, leaving Valerie with a strange mystery.
YOU WILL KNOW IN TIME. Late on the night of August 24, 2013, Shawn was alone at Lake Arcadia in Edmond, Oklahoma, when he saw a strange glowing object moving underwater in the lake. Suddenly it shot out of the water. He soon saw a huge craft hovering nearby. Moments later, three tall human-like ETs appeared, and one of them had a message for him. Shawn had missing time and woke up two hours later.
I NEVER ONCE FELT AFRAID. One night in Summer 2020, two young men saw a strange craft over Laramie, Wyoming. A few weeks later, one of the men was in his bedroom when a strange paralysis gripped him. Coming through the ceiling he saw three grays. One of them connected with him telepathically, providing a download of information, leaving the witness with more questions than answers.
THE STRANGEST EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD. On the night of November 24, 2024, Oscar stepped out of a rented home in Monterrey Nuevo Leon, Mexico to get some air. A strange man approached. Oscar was shocked to see that the man had unusually large eyes, no visible ears and extra-long fingers. When the man began to communicate telepathically, he realized that the man was probably not human.

2017 'Megaflash’ Now the Longest Lightning Bolt on Record
It sparked more than 100 ground strikes and spanned more than 500 miles (800 kilometers)
http://www.snexplores.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/073025_CG_lightning_main-1030x580.jpg
This composite image includes data from 160 high-resolution National Weather Service radars, scanning the skies at multiple elevations
A massive bolt of lightning lit up the sky from Dallas, Texas, to Kansas City, Mo., in October 2017. It’s now officially the longest single flash ever recorded.
Satellite data collected during that storm revealed that this megaflash spanned 829 kilometers (515 miles). It lasted 7.39 seconds, notes Michael Peterson. An applied physicist at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, he’s the lead author of a study describing the event. It appeared online July 31 in the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society.
Megaflashes are relatively rare. They happen in only about 1 in every 1,000 thunderstorms across the Americas. But any given one can pack a punch, Peterson says.
“When they can’t go up anymore, they go out, and this creates the potential for an epic flash. There are these massive, horizontally large, charged layers that can be vertically as thin as a sheet of paper. These layers are key ingredients for megaflashes.”

The record-breaking lightning megaflash (illustrated) spanned about 829 kilometers (515 miles), roughly the distance from Dallas to Kansas City, Mo.
Understanding how giant bolts of lightning form has become an active area of research, he adds.
“A single strike can potentially impact a lot of people. It’s the most impactful kind of lightning we have on Earth. It’s the kind of lightning we want to get a good handle on to keep people safe.”

Security Researchers: Unitree G1 Humanoid Robots are Secretly Sending Data to China
... and can easily be hacked
http://www.generationrobots.com/20448-product_cover/g1-humanoid-robot.jpg
Researchers have uncovered serious security flaws with the Unitree G1 humanoid robot, a machine that is already being used in laboratories and some police departments. They discovered that G1 can be used for covert surveillance and could potentially launch a full-scale cyberattack on networks.
It sounds like the stuff of science fiction nightmares, robots that are secretly spying on you and could be controlled by remote hackers. However, the concern is real, as these types of robots are becoming increasingly common in homes, businesses, critical infrastructure and public spaces.
Particularly concerning was the fact that G1 acts as a Trojan horse, secretly and continually sending data to servers in China every five minutes, without users knowing about it. The team also showed the G1's onboard computer could be repurposed for offensive operations.
Additionally, the robot's custom encryption method to protect its internal configuration files is fundamentally flawed because it uses a simple, static key that's the same on every robot. Therefore, if a hacker were able to break the lock on one robot, they could break the locks on all of them.

AI Actress Tilly Norwood Condemned by SAG-AFTRA
Tilly ‘Is Not an Actor… It Has No Life Experience to Draw From, No Emotion’
http://variety.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Screenshot-2025-09-29-at-1.55.54%E2%80%AFPM.webp?w=1000&h=667&crop=1&resize=500%2C667
Actors union SAG-AFTRA has issued a statement condemning Tilly Norwood, the AI “actress” who has become a contentious subject in Hollywood after her creator, Eline Van der Velden, recently claimed that multiple talent agents were interested in signing the AI creation. The acting guild believes “creativity is, and should remain, human-centered” and “is opposed to the replacement of human performers by synthetics.”

https://www.instagram.com/p/DPOYqaWDnLe
“To be clear, ‘Tilly Norwood’ is not an actor, it’s a character generated by a computer program that was trained on the work of countless professional performers — without permission or compensation,” SAG-AFTRA wrote in a statement. “It has no life experience to draw from, no emotion and, from what we’ve seen, audiences aren’t interested in watching computer-generated content untethered from the human experience. It doesn’t solve any ‘problem’ — it creates the problem of using stolen performances to put actors out of work, jeopardizing performer livelihoods and devaluing human artistry.”
Amid growing industry backlash against Tilly Norwood, who was created by the AI production studio Particle6, creator Eline Van der Velden issued a defense by saying Tilly “is not a replacement for a human being, but a creative work – a piece of art.”
“I see AI not as a replacement for people, but as a new tool, a new paintbrush,” Van der Velden added. “Just as animation, puppetry, or CGI opened fresh possibilities without taking away from live acting, AI offers another way to imagine and build stories. I’m an actor myself, and nothing – certainly not an AI character – can take away the craft or joy of human performance.”

A gravitational wave event detected in 2019 might have led astronomers to discover the first wormhole in the universe. LIGO and Virgo picked up the wave that lasted less than a tenth of a second. Scientists analysed the event and deduced that it was the result of a collision between two black holes. However, six years later, they think they might have been partly wrong. While the scientists still think that a merger between two black holes triggered the waves, it probably didn't happen in our universe. Instead, what we witnessed was the reverberation from an alternate universe that reached us through a wormhole. The signal named GW190521 is still the "preferred interpretation", as per researchers of a new study, but they are not denying the wormhole theory either. The revelation was made by physicist Qi Lai of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences in a preprint uploaded to arXiv.

Hi Vicus, good question. The seers in the Southern Hemisphere may have an answer, but I don't understand their languages. From google AI.
--
Astrology interpretations can differ between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres due to seasonal variations. In the Northern Hemisphere, signs like Libra are associated with autumn, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they correspond to spring, affecting the characteristics attributed to each sign.
Differences in Astrology Between Hemispheres
Zodiac Sign Interpretations
Northern Hemisphere: Zodiac signs are associated with seasonal changes. For example, Aries represents spring, while Capricorn signifies winter.
Southern Hemisphere: The same zodiac signs are interpreted differently due to opposite seasonal experiences. For instance, Libra, typically an autumn sign in the North, represents spring in the South.
Chart Orientation
Northern Hemisphere: Astrological charts are oriented with the Sun rising in the East and moving across the Southern sky from left to right (clockwise).
Southern Hemisphere: Charts are oriented with the Sun rising in the East and moving across the Northern sky from right to left (counter-clockwise).
Planetary Distribution
Northern Hemisphere | Houses 1-6 | Focus on personal identity, introspective nature.
Southern Hemisphere | Houses 7-12 | Emphasis on social interactions and public life.
Personality Traits
Northern Hemisphere Dominance: Individuals may be more private, introspective, and focused on personal development.
Southern Hemisphere Dominance: Individuals tend to be more extroverted, socially engaged, and concerned with public roles.
Understanding these differences can help individuals interpret their horoscopes more accurately based on their geographical location.

Well, I'm not the only one asking ...
When the South hemisphere question first came to my mind, I was puzzled by the fact classical calculations were not reflecting the season's inversion. In the mean time, if we opted for inversing the signs for the Southern hemisphere to make them match with the seasons, we then came with another problem: people born close to each other but in opposite hemispheres (1° North and 1° South of the equator) would end up with opposite Sun signs and this does not make sense at all. The best solution was then to keep the status quo, and not inverse anything. But, when in 1997, I read Max Duval's article (1) suggesting to inverse the signs, not on the equator, but on the ecliptic, I got hooked by the idea as it was starting to make more sense!
