STARSHIP 14 WILL ORBIT EARTH: SpaceX's most powerful rocket is about to orbit Earth for the first time. Starship Flight 14 is scheduled to blast off from Texas on Monday morning, Sept. 28th, at 7:15 CDT. If all goes as planned, the upper stage will circle Earth six times at an altitude near 275 km during a 10-hour flight, then splash down in the Pacific Ocean west of Chile. The live webcast begins 30 minutes before liftoff.

Quit sun. Quiet da. No sunspots - more cosmic radiation.

Watching Hurricane Polo helps make the case for a CAT-6 hurricane. In less than 24 hours Polo grew from a depression to a major hurricane. With plenty of warm water to feed on, Polo shows a new path for intensification. We may see even wilder weather in the future.

A note on that study regarding geomagnetic effects on people. It mentions sleep disturbances that impact recovery (from surgery), and the circadian rhythm that impacts metabolic functioning.

Losing weight also causes sleep disturbances due to low blood sugar causing cortisol spikes, and fat burning which increases the need to pee.

After the solar kill shot, we will have both of these things to contend with at the same time. Add to that the likelihood of sleeping in uncomfortable conditions, and potentially doing night watches, sleep depravation is going to be a real thing on top of everything else.
 
Olive oil is best for lamps. This also works. How to make turpentine

It would be a good idea to start stockpiling resin...
I've built stills, and if you have pressure in your boiler then you are either running a thump keg (a component in some still systems) or you have a blockage.

Blockages happen if you overfill the boiler and there is a boil over into the condenser, or there is some kind of buildup in the condenser from lack of cleaning.

In his case, you can see he has done a poor job in bending the copper pipe and it has crimped off. That's why he has a dangerous pressure issue.

IMO you want your lid to pop off if there is any pressure build up. Better a small pop than a big boom.
