  8. Two Kalibr-carrying frigates, a missile ship, a patrol vessel: Ukraine hit four Russian warships in one night at Novorossiysk

    Ukraine carried out the strike at the port where Russia’s Black Sea Fleet sheltered after fleeing Sevastopol.

    euromaidanpress.com/2026/08/12

    Russia pulled its fleet back to Novorossiysk to keep it safe. Ukraine hit it there with 15 kinds of weapons at once
    The overnight barrage fused jet drones, Neptune missiles and naval drones against the fleet’s last major refuge.

    In Neptune outermost ring, 39,000 miles out, material mysteriously clumps into three arcs. Voyager 2 acquired this image as it encountered Neptune in August of 1989.

  16. Hello #Fediverse, here’s today’s daily OS-tan!

    This one is of Neptune-tan, a OS-tan of Windows Neptune, the canceled Windows version. Neptune-tan is often depicted as a strong and fierce character, sometimes shown wielding large weapons and surrounded by friends like Windows 97, Odyssey, Moseko, and various designs of Longhorn.

    She wears a black, sleeveless qipao with blue accents and red bracelets, a red talisman is on her collar and she has mechanical headpieces that give her a slightly futuristic vibe. Her long, green pigtails are usually accompanied by a red visor which has become one of her most recognisable features.

    Several of her artworks were created by an artist known as イオンのバイド (Ion no Baido) on Pixiv such as the first image shown, though it’s believed they did not originate her concept due to differing art styles.

  17. On September 15, 2024 Space Perspective, the balloon firm planning to offer leisure #stratospheric balloon flights in the future, performed an uncrewed test flight of its #Neptune capsule.

    The balloon was launched onboard the firm's ship #Voyager steaming 80 miles W of #Bradenton shore in the Gulf of Mexico.

    The flight took a little more than six hours and the #capsule splashed down in the Gulf waters 175 miles WSW of departure point.

  19. Today the Moon 🌖 is in practical Virgo ♍, forming an opposition to...

    spiritual Neptune in Pisces! 🌊

    This opposition can illuminate the polarity between a fantasy, illusion, or delusion 🌫️

    and the real-world matters that are tangible and hands-on. 🏡

    Hint: If you want to manifest your soul's truth in the material world,

    you need BOTH! 💖

    We live during pretty incredible times.

    It's tempting to feel overwhelmed and exhausted by all of it sometimes, but the planets can tell us a different story. 🧐

    LNG-Spezialschiff eingetroffen - Kritik von Umweltschützern
  24. @ConstZerger
    Toll! Wie und wann bist Du darauf gekommen? Dass es am Tiefgang liegt, dass das Schiff Neptune seit Tagen diese Schlenker macht und nicht anlegen kann, weil so ein wichtiges Detail nicht vorher abgeklärt worden war... poah.
    Was für Stümper sind denn an dieser LNG-Lieferung beteiligt?

    Du bist einfach toll, weißte das?
