#7 Sisters

[vestaignis]

Знаменитый водопад «7 сестер» украшает левый берег Гейрангер-фьорда — живописного объекта наследия ЮНЕСКО. В период таяния снегов семь мощных потоков низвергаются с отвесной скалы и закрывают горные уступы, словно струящиеся девичьи локоны. Во время сильных дождей к основным струям добавляется несколько ручейков, а зимой вода замерзает и покрывает крутой берег извилистыми ледяными лентами.

В рейтинге самых высоких водопадов Норвегии «Семь сестер» занимает 59 строчку. «Старшая» сестра низвергается в залив с 410-метровой вершины, а все 7 потоков «встречаются» на высоте 250 метров и закрывают собой участок скалы шириной 223 метра. «Семь сестер» — хоть и не самый высокий, но, несомненно, один из самых красивых водопадов Норвегии. Фотографировать водопад лучше в мае—июне — когда потоки еще полноводны. 

The famous waterfall "7 Sisters" adorns the left bank of Geiranger Fjord, a picturesque UNESCO heritage site. During the melting of the snows, seven powerful streams descend from a sheer cliff and cover the mountain ledges, like flowing girlish curls. During heavy rains, several streams are added to the main streams, and in winter the water freezes and covers the steep bank with winding ice ribbons.

Seven Sisters is ranked 59th in the ranking of the highest waterfalls in Norway. The "elder" sister plunges into the bay from a 410-meter peak, and all 7 streams "meet" at an altitude of 250 meters and cover a 223-meter-wide section of rock. "Seven Sisters" is not the highest, but undoubtedly one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Norway. It is better to photograph the waterfall in May—June — when the streams are still full.

I woke up at the absolute asscrack of dawn (4:30am) this morning cuzz my fridge was acting up. And instead of being a wakking zombie, i was wide awake within seconds.

So like any normal person would, i pulled out my telescope and went stargazing.

I read about this recently discovered comet, Nishimura, that is currently the closest to earth it will be in another 400 years, so i figured, lets do this, whipped out my telescope and every bit of astronomy knowledge i have to locate this thing cuzz its barely visible with the naked eye.

Naturally I couldnt see it, because the one hill in the area that i cant get on top (the highest) was in my way. So i didnt see it.

I did however take the chance to look at some objects that Im usually unable to see during the summer due to then being visible at those ungodly hours.

I finally managed to check 2 of my top 3 celestial objects of my list. Those being pleiades (7 sisters) starcluster and the orion nebula.

7 sisters war to see but the orion nebula was absolutely mindblowing, I was literally giggling an bouncing like a child

Also an amazing surprise was jupiter. It was visible very easily most of the night. I was expecting to see a very bright slightly big starlike object when looking at it through my shitty telescope, but when i pointed that fucker at the planet i was pleasantly surprised to see 4 (four!) Moons as well

Tried to take a picture, cant say i was super succesfull but ay

Then i found Venus as well so

All in all i had a great night (morning?) Thanks to my shitty ass fridge :)

Pleiades: The Seven Sisters Star Cluster

Have you ever seen the Pleiades star cluster? Even if you have, you probably have never seen it as large and clear as this. Perhaps the most famous star cluster on the sky, the bright stars of the Pleiades can be seen with the unaided eye even from the depths of a light-polluted city. With a long exposure from a dark location, though, the dust cloud surrounding the Pleiades star cluster becomes very evident. The featured 11-hour exposure, taken from the Siding Spring Observatory in Australia, covers a sky area several times the size of the full moon. Also known as the Seven Sisters and M45, the Pleiades lies about 400 light years away toward the constellation of the Bull (Taurus). A common legend with a modern twist is that one of the brighter stars faded since the cluster was named, leaving only six of the sister stars visible to the unaided eye. The actual number of Pleiades stars visible, however, may be more or less than seven, depending on the darkness of the surrounding sky and the clarity of the observer's eyesight.

Giving the black brothers the authentic sibling experience:

Sirius: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Regulus: having a drink...?

Sirius, taking the glass off him and guiding him to a seat: you've already had two, you're way too young to be drinking this much, your liver will up and leave your goddamn body

Regulus: you were doing this at fourteen, I am quite literally twenty

Sirius, convinced he's still thirteen: ......I don't think you are, Lulu

Regulus: firstly, that stupid name has been overused since we were ten, secondly, you're twenty-two, so do the maths.

Sirius: *calls narcissa* important question, how old is regs

Narcissa: twenty

Sirius: *staring at him in horror* ew

How To Balance Your Daytime and Nighttime Activities So That You Don't Burn Yourself Out More Than You Already Have

It had been a long few minutes since he'd opened the door and there were a lot of questions running through Dick's head. Most pressing of which was how this kid seems to have information he should not have.

"How did you..?" he asked, but the words wouldn't leave completely. There's so much he wants to know, so much he wants to ask.

"How do I what?" Danny tilted his head like the child he seems to be is.

"How do you know?" Dick knows he sounds weak. There's no hiding that, but there are a lot of implications in what the kid has said so far and none of it is painting a very happy picture for him.

"Oh!" Danny had the audacity to smile, "You want to know how I know you moonlight as a vigilante!" And of course he knows. Dick knows he knows, but he'd held a little bit of hope that the child Danny was mistaken. Danny's smile softened a bit as he explained, "Your hair and voice match up in both jobs almost perfectly. Not to mention your build and how you hold yourself. There's also the matter of your overall vibes, but that's not something living beings can normally pick up on." Excuse him? "Well, not living humans, at least, so no worries on that end!"

"Excuse me?" Dick was fairly sure his heart just stopped beating for a moment there.

"Anyway, I was a hero back home for a while, too. I know what it's like to have to walk the tightrope between maintaining a civilian cover and a hero persona. I know how it feels to have to keep secrets from everyone because anyone who knows will be in danger." he rambled, Though, admittedly, our circumstances are quite different. I was working as a hero all hours of the day as well as going to school. You only have to worry about properly balancing between day and night jobs. Either way, me having more to bounce between just makes me al the more qualified to help you!"

Oh. Oh he did not like that. He didn't like a single thing that just came out of the kid's mouth. Because that's what he is, a kid. "Are you...Are you alright?"

"Not in the slightest," Danny admitted with an even smaller smile. Then, it brightened, not quite to a grin, but to something similar, "But I'm here to make sure you are."

He gets points for being honest, but Dick felt his heart shatter. He knew for a fact that he'd never worked with this kid before. He also knew that the Justice League didn't know about him. If they did, he would've been picked up and dropped with either the Young Justice team or the Titans.

Dick wasn't going to ask why he became a hero because that's not his place. It's more of a 'third mission with the team' kind of questions, anyway. Most of the heroes didn't have many options when they took up the mantle. Asking what Danny can do is a more appropriate question, but he wasn't going to ask that, either.

"Now that that's out of the way," Danny turned a few pages from the table of contents to another one that was topped with 'Why Sleep Scheduling Is Important' in the blue glitter pen that Dick was starting to suspect he favored. "You're not getting enough sleep. Following you around - no one's been able to find me for a while, so don't worry about that - for the last two weeks has given me some really worrisome information on you."

Dick was worrying. He was worrying a lot and even more questions were coming to the forefront of his mind.

"Your dayjob is as an officer on the Bludhaven Police Force, or BPD for short." He was looking over the page he'd turned to very aptly and Dick realized that the kid had notes written on him. "The average hours per week for police across the country is forty hours. Gotham and Bludhaven are the exceptions. As a member of the BPD, you work a solid two days and two hours. Six nights a week, you work as Nightwing from eight in the evening to three in the morning. The last day, you take off, which is good. No deserable pattern, so good on you for that. Regardless, that's seven hour nights and ten hour days, with one day off and one day on call as an officer. Seven hours are now left in your day for personal time, eating, and sleeping. That's not a healthy way to live."

Oh, god, the kid had honest to god notes on him! What the hell!

Danny didn't even skip a beat as he pulled Dick's attention back to him and his binder. "I've drawn up a schedule for you to follow." The back of the page had a meticulously drawn schedule, complete with blocks of time to eat, sleep, work both jobs, travel, personal time, and still have a bit extra left over. It was titled 'Ideal End Result' in green marker. "Drastic changes right away will only affect you negatively, so we're starting off smaller." The next page over had another schedule titled 'Where To Begin'. "I've only pulled one hour from your Nightwing hours because I know important that time is to you and the city. I am, however, going to be having you submit an appeal to your boss to cut back your hours from fifty a week to forty a week. That way, you'll only be working eight hours a day and not ten. You'll still be on call for one day, and you'll have that last day off. Altogether, you'll be going be going from working seventeen hours a day to fourteen hours a day. Nine in the morning to five in the afternoon, and eight in the evening to two in the morning. Not including breaks at work or travel time. It opens up a few more hours for you to sleep!"

"You really think the chief is going to pull back my hours?" Dick raised an eyebrow in question.

"He will if he knows what's good for him."

"You know I can arrest you for that threat, right?"

"Yeah, but you won't." And, damn it, he's right.

Although, there was now another thing he had to know. "How to you plan on enforcing this schedule of yours?"

Danny seemed to have been waiting for this. He got a gleam in his eye as he pulled a black folder from his bag, not breaking eye contact with Dick. He placed it on the table and pushed it across. "Congratulations, it's a boy."

Palestinian freedom fighters breaking out of Gaza and reclaiming their occupied territories. They’ve taken over israeli tanks and have chased out the settlers that were on that land. They’ve launched rockets everywhere and the iron dome has failed to intercept. This is about to mark a momentous event in history.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
