9/30: Hurricane/Typhoon John in East/West Pacific Basin has the record for traveling the most miles (7,165)
on 10/08 and 10/9, 1994. This is since 1961 (the beginning of the satellite era when distances started being measure by satellite reconnaissance.)

Many orbiting satellites and the International Space Station revolve within the ionosphere. Since the atmosphere density is mostly negligible here, spacecraft can remain in orbit for years without encountering much resistance.

Small acts change the world.

Boy I tried to figure how many I needed for Sept and I can’t I even
went back a couple of months I’m probably going to over post but I don’t want to be short.

This is due to their paw pads that lessen the impact and also absorb sound to allow a silent landing. Within these same pads are sensitive nerve receptors that sense vibrations, pressure and textures. Their paw pads contain large concentrations…[Read more]

😸 Today I was reading in our next book, Cat Among the Pumpkins, and it mentioned that somecat had been killed by a shoal of jellyfish accidentally delivered to his seafood tank. 😸 Yikes, just after we watched that scary CSU video.

9/30 Does change in air pressure cause wind?
A change in air pressure can create wind. The wind will become stronger as the pressure difference increases. Wind and air pressure are very connected with one another. Differences in air pressure around the planet drive wind and ultimately, our weather patterns.

Beavers form monogamous couples and both males and females raise their young.

I will find an alternative to cheesecloth for the next craft.

9/30
Hurricane Ian
Hurricane Ian, one of the most powerful storms ever recorded in the U.S., made landfall first near Coya Costa, an island off Fort Myers, and then finally on the mainland near Punta Gorda, on Wednesday. For hours, the near-Category 5 storm pummeled the region before barreling through Central Florida, leaving devastation and major…[Read more]

Makeup for 9/29 – The loudest animal in the world is a mere 2cm long, prawn. The Pistol Shrimp is capable of snapping its claw shut so rapidly, that it creates a bubble that collapses to produce a sonic blast, louder than a sonic boom.
