Explanation: In this alluring time exposure, star trails arc across the night sky above foggy Monterey Bay and the lights of Santa Cruz, California in the United States of America. Since the exposure began around 2:56am PDT on July 2 it also records the trail of a Delta II rocket lofting NASA's OCO-2 spacecraft into orbit. Seen from a vantage point 200 miles north of the Vandenberg Air Force Base launch site, the trail represents the first five minutes of the rocket's flight along a trajectory south and west over the Pacific to join the A-Train in polar orbit around planet Earth. The entire trail through main engine cut-off is captured, with a very faint puff at the end marking the nose fairing separation. Under the rocket's path, the two brightest trails are the alpha and beta stars of the constellation Grus, flying high in southern skies. The OCO-2 mission goal is a study of atmospheric carbon dioxide, watching from space as planet Earth breathes.

i decided to plug in my old chromebook out of curiosity and such, and well. it does power on. it had lost the OS after being unplugged for a year
it told me to take the SD card out so it could go into recovery mode and now the SD card has vanished into the ether. and it's not even because my room is a tanglemess, because it's actually fuckin clean for once after all the work i went through to get it nice over the past month.
fucker's just gone
not the end of the world, i already backed everything up off of it when i got this chromebook, copied everything from that 64gb sd to this new 128gb microsd, but y'know.
it's always something
did i mention that the stew incident of last week has caused my J, K, L, ;, ', and enter keys to start misbehaving
