@ana  I have a similar shot from holding my iPhone up to my binoculars. It was pretty awesome to see.

And now for a bit of levity.

For some days now I keep hearing and seeing this scene:

iT: " I'm invincible!"

Almost everyone else: "You're a loony!"

as per https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmInkxbvlCs

This is a (IMO) a very significant and trippy song by four guys in their early 20's:

(youth are awakening...)

 

Age of Machine

Greta Van Fleet

Perfect child
Plugged in since the womb
Prophet of the dune
In this electric tomb
Man has made
An omnipresent force
Heading on a course
For interstellar shores
God machine
Malfunctioned as it grew
And the circuits blew
Falling down on you
Now you're free
Unplug from the source
No more underscores
Open up the doors
Feeling
Oh god, the feeling
We need some healing
We need some healing
God knows if you feel defeated
You have been cheated
You have retreated
Feeling
Oh god, the feeling
We need some healing
We need some healing
God knows if you feel defeated
You have been cheated
You have retreated

This video is fantastic!

The Marsh Family has been singing and making fun parody pandemic videos since early in the pandemic.  This one is fantastic! A great  video!

I know I keep touting these guys, but they more than deserve it.  So groovy and meaningful you'd think it was from 1972, but it was just released a week ago:

HEAT ABOVE-Greta Van Fleet

Sorrows of the Earth
May our tears of rain wash down to bathe you
This is what life is worth
When the fires still burn and rage all around
Can you hear that dreadful sound?
Fire still burning on the ground

Follow the fearsome sound
As they march to battle, hear the drums pound
We do not fight for war
But to save the lives of those who do so

Can you hear that dreadful sound?
Fire still burning on the ground
Can you feel my love?
Rising with the heat above
Life's the story of
Ascending to the stars as one
Marching across the land
Is a peaceful army joining the band
Walking hand in hand
To an anthem loudly sung where they stand  ...
