  6. It's Schrödinger "Ding" the super-symmetric, super-positioned, quantum string theory kitty! He occasionally liked to take breaks from crunching numbers to go camping with his human.

  7. My Dad on his ground up rebuilt, modified, and hopped up 1939 Triumph T100 Tiger. The T100 featured a 498cc 360° parallel twin OHV four-stroke engine. Dad likely bored it out and certainly CC'd, ported, and polished the head. I'm guessing the photo is from around 1947.

  12. Here's a contrarian take on a popular structure to photograph in canyon country. At the right time of day the sun reflects off of the canyon floor & lights up the cliff overhang turning it a bright orange & making it look like flames. Of course, most images you see are grossly oversaturated to enhance the effect. But here it is in B&W so you can enjoy the textures & contrast rather than oversaturated color.

  13. A Sierra Wave Cloud at sunset over the Truckee Meadows in Northwest Nevada. From Wikipedia: "Known as lee waves, Sierra Waves form as winds hit the Sierra Nevada and are forced to rise, causing water vapor to condense as it cools and forming lenticular clouds on the leeward side of the mountain range."

  19. @gutenberg_org From the Wikipedia page: "World Book and Copyright Day...is an annual event organized by [the] United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization to promote reading, publishing, and copyright."

    I'm all in on the former two planks and 100% opposed to the latter plank. Copyright chills the spread of knowledge. Sounds like the publishing cartel got UNESCO to promote their propaganda.

  20. I failed to get up and go train chasing this morning. 🫤 But here's a last shot I made of it on Sunday. It was nearly dark. Also, this was the closest I ever got to the 4014 when it was in motion. That's one big chunk of iron to have blowing by you ~20ft away!

    (Williams Loop, Feather River Canyon, California.)

  21. Ooo, Earthquake! I hope it was nearby, because if it wasn't it was a big one!

    Ooo, M5.7 in Silver Springs, ~40 miles from me. I hope everyone is okay and there wasn't a lot of damage.

    Ah, yes, the earthquake was in the good old Walker Lane fault complex. It may one day replace the San Andreas fault...once California tumbles into the ocean, lol.

  22. Here's a shot of the 4014 before it passed under me to enter the Williams Loop in the Feather River Canyon of Northern California. It was really boiling steam and smoke chugging up hill in the Sierra.

  23. It was a challenging day chasing the UP No.4014. It was very slow coming up the hill in the Feather River Canyon. By the time it got in the area where I was, it was late in the day and the light was fading fast. With the rain, and snow further up the hill, the 4014 was really blowing steam!

  24. The nice and steamy Union Pacific No.4014 "Big Boy," a 4-8-8-4 steam engine built in 1941, rolling through the Sierra along the historic Feather River Route in Northern California this morning.

  25. The Union Pacific No.4014 "Big Boy," a 4-8-8-4 steam engine built in 1941, rolling over the Clio Trestle on the historic Feather River Route in Northern California this morning.

    I was hoping for some steam action because it was cool and humid, as compared to two years ago when the 4014 last traveled this route, but I didn't expect this!

  26. Union Pacific No.4014 "Big Boy," a 4-8-8-4 steam engine, rolling along the southern edge of the Black Rock playa in Nevada yesterday morning. I'm off to try and catch the 4014 crossing the Clio trestle tomorrow morning. There's a forecast for rain and the humidity will be high. High humidity makes for nice steamy steam engines!

  28. The centimeter wide rock layer that records the Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary that ended the rein of the dinosaurs. (It's the brown layer between the coal & light claystone layers.) It was created by the fallout of a 12km impactor that created the 250km wide Chicxulub crater offshore of the Yucatán Peninsula. The layer contains shocked quartz & an anomalous concentration of the element iridium marking an extraterrestrial impact.
