My first photowalk
May 2012, a couple of people organized a huge +GPlus Euro Photowalk. I had never even heard of a photowalk before, but I was interested in what that might be and what people would do on a photowalk. I was a bit scared to meet strangers I only knew from the internet in real life.
But I went and had a blast! Up to now I am going to photowalks as often as possible, sometimes even co-organize our +Drink and Click ™ Berlin, Germany walks.

Thanks again to +Joerg Jung +Athena Carey +Joel Tjintjelaar +Luca Cesari +Marc Koegel and +Julia Anna Gospodarou for starting it!

Total Lunar Eclipse - Here's When You Can See the Moon Turns Red this Weekend

Get ready for an epic moon event this weekend.
Overnight from Sunday, Jan. 20, 2019, into Monday, Jan. 21, millions of people in North and South America will have a prime view of a total lunar eclipse. During a special nocturnal hour, the full moon will become fully tinted with the red-orange color of sunset.

The Jan. 21 total lunar eclipse will be the last one until May 2021, and the last one visible from the United States until 2022; the most recent total lunar eclipse previous to this one appeared in July 2018.

People in Hawaii and eastern Africa will catch the dramatic lunar eclipse as the moon rises and sets over the horizon, respectively. Those viewers will see a total eclipse, but not all of the partial eclipse that leads up to and ends the celestial event.

All of North and South America, including the Caribbean nations, will see the entire event. People in countries in Europe such as Iceland, Ireland and Portugal will also get to view all of the eclipse. And although people in the Ukraine and Turkey won't catch the whole eclipse, they'll still wake up to an impressive lunar sight.

When Donald Trump Jr. testified under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee in September 2017, he told lawmakers that he was only “peripherally aware” of talks to build a Trump Tower in Moscow during his father’s presidential campaign. “Most of my knowledge has been gained since as it relates to hearing about it over the last few weeks,” he claimed. Last November, however, Yahoo News suggested that wasn’t exactly the case. In fact, multiple sources told White House correspondent Hunter Walker that both Ivanka Trump and her older brother had been “working to make Trump Tower Moscow a reality,” a situation that special counsel Robert Mueller had “asked questions about.”

Last night’s BuzzFeed bombshell, if true, confirms that Trump’s kids were involved in the Moscow project. Worse, it makes Trump Jr.’s claim of “peripheral awareness” seem a little dubious! According to the BuzzFeed story, Donald Trump instructed his former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to lie to Congress about the timing of the Trump Tower deal, which would have brought in profits in excess of $300 million. It also cites law-enforcement sources who say that “Trump and his children Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr. received regular, detailed updates about the real-estate development from Cohen, whom they put in charge of the project.”

PK Asks: Was Trump Trying to Get Pelosi Killed?

K "When people in the WH leaked Pelosi's travel plans -- which The Times now confirms was the case -- were they trying to get her killed? Incredibly vindictive and irresponsible, at the least"

NYT: "But once he had publicized the plans for Ms. Pelosi, who is second in line to the presidency, to travel to a war zone, security arrangements for the trip were jeopardized, sending congressional officials scrambling for a way to salvage it."

When water met iron deep inside the Earth, did it create conditions for life? | #Geology #GeologyPage

Reservoirs of oxygen-rich iron between the Earth’s core and mantle could have played a major role in Earth’s history, including the breakup of supercontinents, drastic changes in Earth’s atmospheric makeup, and the creation of life, according to recent work from an international research team published in National Science Review.

We know a lot about atmospheres of hot planets, but because it’s very hard to find small planets that orbit farther from their stars, and are therefore cooler, we haven’t been able to learn much about these smaller, cooler planets.
