Saharan Dust

In late January, dust from the Sahara blew westward toward the Cabo Verde archipelago before turning northward toward Europe. During winter and spring, Saharan dust tends to stay at lower altitudes, where it can be carried by the northeast trade winds. (Image credit: L.

Did you know you can use AI to make fantasy world maps? I used the /blend function with satellite images, mainly of Europe and parts of Europe. Then I used /imagine with a fairly basic command to make a 'fantasy map.' The results speak for themselves. I have quite a few more. The fact that I haven't posted them doesn't mean they were poorer. There are just too many. Nevertheless, you can still see where real world geography pokes through. The outline of Arabia is obvious in at least two maps and you can see where the Japanese Islands and the Korean Peninsula were the source maps for an eastern coastline. By Midjourney

Australian volcano near Antarctica captured on satellite spewing lava

(image source)

“One of Australia’s two active volcanoes on an island near Antarctica – known as Big Ben – has been spotted by satellite spewing lava.

The lava flow on the uninhabited Heard Island, about 4,100 kilometres south-west of Perth and 1,500km north of Antarctica, is part of an ongoing eruption that was first noted more than a decade ago.

The image was caught by the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite on 25 May [2023] and is a composite of an optical picture and an infrared image.”

Wildfires in Sicily da European Space Agency Tramite Flickr: Wildfires around the city of Palermo in Sicily, Italy, captured by the Landsat-8 mission on 25 July 2023. Data from the mission's SWIR bands, which penetrate the smoke of the fire, has been overlaid on the optical image to provide a clearer view of the fire front and affected area at the time of the acquisition.

I wish there was a chill farming/crafting/exploring rpg type game based on Dinotopia.

The initial premise of the books is PERFECT for it really.

You wash up on a mysterious island, and have to learn to fit into the society because returning home is impossible....

Your initial choices determine which area of Dinotopia you're directed to to live, and what life you make.

Its been so long since i read the books but they're so BRIGHT and joyful and creative! Plus DINOSAURS. And the dinosaurs are fellow people!

Fire in Ice

This false-color satellite image of Malaspina Glacier (Sít’ Tlein) is a riot of color. Composed of coastal/aerosol, near infrared, and shortwave infrared bands from Landsat 9, the colors highlight features otherwise hard to identify.  (Image credit: W.
