Another year has passed and here we go with the 2026 hurricane season for the Southeast Pacific and Atlantic ocean. Last year category 5 Melissa hurricane formed at the end of the season and was marked as the most deadly (95 deaths related) and destructive (8.8k million USD) for the season. It was formed late October and went through several Caribbean countries. Now this year we expect a bit more activity at the Pacific side, seems we have forecasted meteorological phenomenon "El Niño" to become stronger than the last years and could produce a "Super Niño" event, whats does that mean? a surely not favorable situation, more heat that produce intense rains which leads to flooding and other problems, like hurricanes. Its already stated that 2026 was the 2nd highest sea surface temperature on record. Couple of weeks ago the names of this season were released and we see more possible named systems on the Pacific with 24 against 20 for the Atlantic.

Seen Sheep Detectives movie at cinema and was a powerful emotional movie with black humor shades, I liked how the sheep fantasy world geared with the real one, very simple plot that gave the movie a strong debt in outcome. In a calm and family day mood to watch, good adaptation from the original german novel "Glennkill: Ein Schafskrimi" by Leonie Swann. I was wondering why the protagonist was chosen to be the redhead sheep of the herd instead the usual white, and its mentioned in some reviews that Swann liked Ireland, its culture and people which was staged and explains it 😄

Welcome back Chucky! 🔪 nice to see you couple of days ago at S1

Lets take a look to May's full "Flower Moon" with stunning photos around the world. It made its appearance below the stars of the constellation Virgo. Its named Flower Moon cause of the blooms that appear in the northern hemisphere and this one passing very close of the blue-white star Spica and red Arcturus. Photographer Lokman Vural took what its usually called "Manhattanhenge" of the full moon on May 1st as it rose through the concrete jungle of New York.

The date, May 1st, marks the celebration of Buddha Purnima, also called Vesak and Buddha Jayanti, when worshippers commemorate the birth, enlightenment and death of Gautama Buddha.

The refraction effect made by Earth's atmosphere kinda changed the outline of the lunar disk. Flower Moon at Poland.

Thats office party 😄 congratulations @phir0x

Whoa didnt knew the Matrix gets old 😛 Happy birthday dd, and hopefully many more to come! 🎂

Big congrats! very well done!

Comet 3I/Atlas update Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), scientists have discovered that the interstellar invader comet 3I/ATLAS formed in a much colder region of the Milky Way than our solar system. The discovery came about when scientists made the first-ever measurement of so-called semi-heavy water (or deuterated water) for an object that originated beyond the solar system. Deuterated water refers to water in which one hydrogen atom is replaced with deuterium, a heavy hydrogen isotope that has an atomic nucleus composed of one proton and one neutron. ALMA's measurements of deuterated water revealed that 3I/ATLAS contains around 30 times as much semi-heavy water as is found in comets that originate in the solar system. The findings indicate that 3I/ATLAS, just the third interstellar object discovered passing through the solar system, formed in a much more frigid region of space compared to our planetary backyard. "Our new observations show that the conditions that led to the formation of our solar system are much different from how planetary systems evolved in different parts of our galaxy," team leader Luis E. Salazar Manzano at the University of Michigan said in a statement. Manzano and colleagues studied 3I/ATLAS as it reached its closest point to the sun, a feat made possible by the ability of ALMA's 66 radio antennas to point toward the sun, something optical telescopes can't do because of the glare of sunlight. This elevated ratio points to 3I/ATLAS having formed in an exceptionally cold and chemically distinct environment somewhere else in the Milky Way. "The chemical processes that lead to the enhancement of deuterated water are really sensitive to temperature and usually require environments colder than about 30 Kelvin, or about minus 406 degrees Fahrenheit (207 degrees Celsius)," Manzano said.
