Okay, I have a fun social engineering project for someone willing to convince some gullible conspiracy theory nutjobs to do something they think is furthering their "research" into their bonkers "theories", but that's really doing actual science.

You see, there's a citizen science initiative out there called the Global Meteor Network. Their goal is to record and locate meteors all over the world, in an attempt to calculate potential orbits of dangerous space rocks who might be looking to dinosaur us into oblivion. They work by having a series of cameras that record the night sky, generally located in people's backyards, which will then send information about detected meteor trails back to the central server.

The process can produce maps like this. This map is important for the social engineering project, so I'll come back to it later.

They need at least two cameras recording the same event in order to triangulate its position. The more cameras they have, the better. More coverage means more data, and it's less likely that a tree, light pollution, or a stray cloud would obscure the meteor from all observation stations.

I think this is an interesting project and I'd probably already be taking part, if my backyard weren't a canyon with an extremely limited view of the sky.

Anyway, the point is, this project watches the skies and makes maps of what it sees. This is where the social engineering project comes in.

If you haven't been paying attention, for the last month or so, people have suddenly realized that there are a lot of airplanes that fly over New Jersey. However, the reaction has not been "Huh, there are a lot of airplanes that fly around New Jersey. I'd never noticed that before." Instead, the reaction has been "OmG WeRE bEiNg InVaDeD bY (Iranians|Antifa|Aliens|Joe Biden)". Any attempt to point out that hey, look, this picture is obviously an airplane and you're under the flight path for EWR will be met by derision and how what it REALLY shows is ACTUALLY a 6 foot long Chinese Spy Drone that just LOOKS exactly like a 787 with its landing lights on so it can blend in and that any attempt to claim otherwise is the height of arrogance and an insult to their scientific investigation that involves staring at fuzzy blobs on a webcam all day. So let's not bother to point that out anymore, and let's use their nutjobbery to get some science done!

Now, this is where that map comes in. You see, they're mostly not interested in scientific research on this phenomenon (If they were, they'd be out with surveyor transits and doing trigonometry to debunk all the obvious airplanes on approach to JFK, so they can focus on the legitimate mystery objects, and I'd respect that approach), what they're interested in is confirmation bias. So let's give it to them. I present to you, the Great Mysteries of the Night UAP Tracker map!

Oh, look at all those Unidentified Aerial Phenomena out there! But why aren't there any over New Jersey, when CLEARLY that's where the Canadian Mind Probes That Want To Steal The Concept Of Hexagons are concentrated at the moment? Well, no one's set up any tracker cameras there yet, so it's a blind spot.

So, why don't you, good citizen/defender of the Earth, set up one of these cameras to keep watch on the skies? It's fully automated, you just set it up and leave it running and it'll watch the skies and report what it finds to a network of like-minded investigators/patriots/seekers, and you don't have to do anything else!

Lots of blue dots appear on the map, and with those blue dots, lots more streaks appear. Hover orbs confirmed!

Meanwhile, the Global Meteor Network gets an influx of new stations in areas where they currently don't have much coverage.

And here's the thing: If I were developing a method to detect and track strange things in the sky, I'd probably start with the exact same technology that the GMN is using. With a network of georeferenced all-sky cameras, you'd be able to triangulate object positions in real time. You'd need a denser network to track things at lower altitudes, but I think the current hype could make that possible. Then maybe add in an ADS-B receiver, like a Dump1090 or PiAware, to help filter out most (but not all) aircraft. It wouldn't even have to be set it up as a trick at that point, it'd collect all the data for UFO hunters, but also send stuff along to GMN and your favorite airplane tracker.

So last night as I was starting to slowly drift off to sleep, my brain suddenly stuck on something (I promise this is Temeraire related). You see, the Netherlands have used "can't get an army across lots of water" as a basic defence strategy pretty much from Roman times until we got airplanes. The extent of it has varied; sometimes it was as simple as "well the river is too big" (Romans), sometimes it was "if we break this dike right here, the polder will flood and the Spanish can't get at the city". But, from the end of the 17th century, there was a systematic line of forts along the polders and rivers that could protect the province of Holland (specifically), here shown in purple. To the south there's big rivers leading into an estuary, and then it protects the province from invasion to the east. From about 1870, it was replaced by the orange parts, as well as the brownish line around Amsterdam specifically. The yellow area is from the mid-18th century. It is basically a collection of forts, and a series of locks. Together, these can make it so the coloured areas flood to a depth of 30-60 cm. Too deep for infantry, not deep enough for boats. It protects the capital of Amsterdam (with its important harbour), and the big cities of The Hague, Utrecht and Rotterdam.

And again, until we developed airplanes and parachutists and airplane bombs and so on, this worked really well.

Now, since I've been rereading the Temeraire books, the drifting off to sleep made me suddenly realise - how would dragon aerial warfare interact with this? Which morphed into a discussion with my partner (who hasn't read the books) about how Dutch dragons would work.

The first thing I'd like to do is point out the size of the Netherlands, compared to the British Isles and to the United States:

In other words, very small. And, very importantly, it used to be even smaller; a lot of the current land was reclaimed from the sea or large lakes between roughly 1650 and 1950. Most of the west of the country is below sea level, and very wet. A fair part of the east of the country isn't very rich soils and thus not great for farming (until chemical fertiliser is invented in the 1900s) (though they did use sheep dung as fertiliser, and they would almost certainly have thought of using dragon dung as well, eventually).

So I propose that actually, the Netherlands probably would have mostly had middle- and lightweights. There just isn't the area to support a large enough population of heavyweights that they aren't all inbred. My partner suggested there is probably one heavyweight breed, and I like that idea. I think that - militarily - the Netherlands would probably have figured out a strategy for using middle-weights against heavy-weights when they are fighting alone, but preferentially use their middle-weights as support in battles when there is a larger coalition, joining whoever is on their side.

However. There may only be middle-weight dragons, there would be a fairly large number of different breeds, with different strengths. You see, unlike the United Kingdom, where England was mostly united by around 900 CE, and then the Normans strengthened that, or France, which has a similar time scale, the Netherlands is a collection of loose duchies and counties and prince-bishoprics and so on, pretty much until the 1550s. The map pictured is from 1670, after a fair amount of the lands have been united into a republic; there would likely have been more divisions before then.

They get united under the dukes of Burgundy, eventually, but even at that time, it is still the Duchy of Brabant and the County of Holland and so on. But until they come together against Spanish rule, the separate parts regularly fight with each other. Which means that each of them would have their own breeds. (Likely, Holland and Zeeland would have very similar dragons, with aquatic adaptations, who get fed on a mixture of fish and meat; the more inland regions would have more "standard" breeds. To outsiders they all look incredibly alike, but if you mention to someone from Guelders that you cannot tell their Zwarte van Gelre apart from the Brabants Blauwtje, they would be so insulted. Can you not tell that theirs is a pure midnight black while the Brabants Blauwtje is blue? However, the breeds are so alike that most of them follow a continuum. Except the Fryske Grutskens, which looks very distinct). This is also where the single heavy-weight breed comes in - I think it would have been Flanders. Flanders is a part of the kingdom of France (rather than the Holy Roman Empire, which is the power the rest of the motley collection belongs to). One of the counts of Flanders probably got a breeding pair of heavy-weights from the king of France; maybe during one of the (many) revolts. These were crossed with the native middle-weights until a new breed of heavy-weights was developed. And finally, purely for my own amusement, William the Silent/William of Orange, who led the 1548 revolution against the Spanish, would have a dragon that is actually orange. No one knows how or why it came out that colour, none of its progenitors was, it just did and he was named for it (the fact that he is Prince of Orange is a bonus).

I also think that the Dutch would be using dragons for shipping, at least within the country. It is efficient and cheap (especially the dragons that grew up having fish as part of their diet), and the Dutch have always been fans of efficient and cheap and trade. And since it's all middle-weights, that is less scary than heavyweight breeds dropping in. I don't think dragons would be used for passenger-work, but loading the big ships, that can't quite reach the harbour? Definitely. And if you have large-ish ships, but only middle-weight dragons, it's probably much easier to ship dragons across the world, so you can also have a dragon when you arrive at your destination.

To bring it back to the idle thought that started this all - the Waterlinie, aka using the water to prevent invasion. My partner and I think it would still have worked, mostly. The Romans start taming the native European breeds, so they probably could cross the Rhine. In our world, the Rhine was the limes, the border, because they can't cross it in large enough numbers; but if they have dragons and the native Germanic tribes don't, then they can. I don't think they'd have been able to hold the land, not for long, and it's not interesting enough to bother anyway. But after that, when the playing field is levelled by everyone having dragons, the water would still be a workable defence. Yes, the aerial forces can come over and wreak havoc - except everyone has dragons now and so they will try to defend it - but the infantry still has trouble crossing the water. And then, when artillery gets developed, it's still the same. You can shoot at the enemy dragons, they can shoot at yours - and the infantry still can't cross the water. I think an enemy (often the French) would try to use dragons against the forts, before they can inundate the land, but that it wouldn't work as well after.

Anyway, here are some rambly thoughts about Dutch dragons in the Temeraire universe. (Sidenote but I can't make heads nor tails of the Dutch names that are used once or twice in the books. They just don't work.)

Kauhara - Meet The Kingdoms

Azartsik Kingdom

Part 1 - Basic Information

Flag & Map

Their People

The Azartsik Kingdom is home of the Azartsik race, dragons and drakes known for their mostly crepuscular to nocturnal lifestyle, their developed sense of sight which allows them to see without issue in the dark and (for their dragons only) their speed and mobility during flight, being by far the best on aerial movement out of the other races in Kauhara.

The Azartsik are usually around 9'8"ft tall for the males and 9'2" for the females. Coloration-wise they tend to have slightly dark-toned scales, colors like blue, red and magenta (all in dark tones) are common. It is to note that rarely will these scales lack hue and be completely black or some shade of dark gray. Their horns are black and will always be pointing straight away without any curving.

The Azartsik are omnivores leaning towards meat. While they like their meats and other animal products and tend to favor them, they wouldn't mind sharing their plate with a few greens if they'd like to.

Weather, Climate and Biomes

If you visit the Azartsik Kingdom, you will be greeted with generally cold climate, you are in the mountains after all. Snowfall is more than likely to fall during the colder months of the year.

If you are south near the Azartsik-Sukkan border, you will find more bearable weather, do note however that storms can be quite common here, rain tends to occur frequently in the intermission months between the colder and warmer months of the year. Land is at its best for growing around these times.

The Azartsik's mountain range is covered in its majority with montane coniferous forests. Further south at the Sukkan border you will find more even terrain with a few grasslands and shrublands, these eventually transition into the arid barrens at the Sukki Plateau.

Their Culture and Society

The Azartsik's culture tends to revolve around the stars above, since the days of their kingdom's dawn they have not taken an eye off of them. Dedicated festivities to these exist, usually taking place around the dates where these signal the arrival of growing seasons, where the land and weather allows for the vest conditions to cultivate their foods.

Additional, non-scheduled celebrations include those taking place after certain natural astronomical events like the passing of a great comet, an eclipse taking place (wether its a solar or lunar eclipse does not matter) or a conjuction between between various celestial bodies. The magnitude of these celebrations vary depending on the event that took place.

In recent years, the Azartsik Kingdom was met with a large influx of foreigners setting down in their land. While initially these foreigners were not welcomed by their people due to past historical matters with other kingdoms, they quickly began to grow used to these arrivals and let them stay, allowing the Azartsik kingdom to become a central hub of sorts for Kauhara.

Their Economy

The Azartsik's economy is among the strongest in Kauhara. This is product of a treaty between them, the neighbouring Sukkan Kingdom and the nearby Realm of Azukaiya. This treaty is of economic nature, however it does also include a few defense agreements.

Additionally, as mentioned before, Azartsik's influx of foreign dragons and drakes from different kingdoms turned the Azartsik Kingdom into a central hub. One of the benefits that came to Azartsik with this event is the increase in trading as well as the exchange of cultures between the Azartsik and other kingdoms, allowing for new trade routes to be implemented between kingdoms and boosting the Azartsik's economy significantly. This time period is known as the Azartsik Golden Age.

They have strong mining industry comparable with the Berhazan Kingdom and Sukkan Kingdom's. In addition to that, they have a good agricultural sector, focusing majorily on crops like roots and livestock like goats and cattle.

Ten conservation groups today sent a letter calling on Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek and the Board of Forestry to protect additional acres of forest lands in the proposed Western Oregon State Forest Habitat Conservation Plan. Their proposed increase in protected mature and old-growth forest land would help safeguard imperiled species like the threatened Oregon Coast coho salmon and marbled murrelet.

Specifically, today’s letter seeks to protect forests older than 80 years in the Tillamook and Clatsop state forests and the Cook Creek watershed because of their ecological value for coastal communities and wildlife. The draft conservation plan is now in the process of being finalized by the Board of Forestry.

“Protecting more mature and old-growth coastal forests would benefit Oregon’s treasured wildlife and sustain coastal communities,” said Meg Townsend, senior freshwater attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity. “We need to protect Cook Creek to safeguard critical spawning habitat for Oregon Coast coho and make sure coastal residents have safe drinking water and recreational opportunities.”

Intact mature and old-growth forests provide important habitat corridors and refuges for wildlife including at-risk species like the marbled murrelet. They also help moderate flooding and runoff occurring more frequently in a changing climate while ensuring water quantity and quality to downstream communities. Older forests are the most resistant and resilient to climate change impacts like wildfire.

Across Oregon, only about 10% of mature and old-growth forests remain, and much less than that remains on the North Coast.

Clearcut logging and related activities like road building and aerial pesticide spraying increase sediment and other pollutants flowing into streams and drinking water sources. No-logging buffers around streams have increased under a settlement agreement with the Center for Biological Diversity and other groups. But communities remain concerned about the extent of clearcutting in their drinking watersheds and the short-term and cumulative harms of industrial logging.

This summer, Oregon Wild co-developed a project with NASA to map the extent of logging across watersheds on the North Coast. The analysis revealed that the forested areas many Oregon coastal communities rely on for safe and clean drinking water have been more than 50% clearcut over the past 20 years.

This video was taken by a man driving to his job during the 2018 wildfire season. 🔥😱

The relationship between humans and wildfires has evolved quite a lot throughout history, especially recently thanks to new technologies.

Indigenous peoples often used controlled burns as a land management technique, but as European settlers expanded into North America, a focus on fire suppression began to take root, especially following catastrophic events like the Great Fire of 1910, which scorched about three million acres across Idaho, Montana, and Washington.

This led to a "Smokey the Bear" approach, emphasizing the prevention of all forest fires.

In recent years, the frequency and intensity of wildfires have increased globally, with notable examples like Australia's 2019-2020 bushfire season and California's record-breaking fire seasons in 2020 and 2021.

The technology to combat wildfires has evolved rapidly since the early 20th century.

The primary tools used to be simple like shovels and axes, used to create firebreaks to halt the spread of fire.

In the 1930s, the use of aircraft for aerial reconnaissance began.

It later expanded to include dropping water and fire retardants, with the first recorded air-to-ground fire retardant drop occurring in 1955 in Los Angeles County.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the advent of more advanced communication systems, including radios, enhanced the coordination among firefighting crews.

As computing technology advanced in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, Geographic Information Systems and satellite imaging started playing an essential role in mapping fires and predicting their spread.

Most recently, drones have been employed for real-time monitoring, and machine learning algorithms are being developed to predict fire behavior more accurately.

1950s WEST GERMAN AIR FORCE LUFTWAFFE BASIC PILOT TRAINING FILM BUNDESWEHR 93964

Apr 20, 2020

Dating to the 1950s, this German Air Force training film shows many aspects of basic pilot training. It was apparently shot at Landsberg-Lech Air Base located near the town of Landsberg am Lech in Bavaria.

The aircraft shown throughout the film are T-6 Harvards, also known as Texans, American single-engined advanced trainer aircraft developed during WWII. A Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star is shown at the end of the film (21:45). This was used as a two-seater jet trainer for military pilots. It is an updated version of the Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star, the first American fighter jet. The German Air Force took delivery of 192 of the Lockheed trainers between 1956 and 1959. The T-33 did not remain long in service as a training jet because of the rapid development of jet aircraft and the purchase of the Lockheed F-104G Starfighter as the standard fighter plane for the West German air force.

Some of the highlights of the film include: 1:10 Control tower operations 1:20 Pilot prep including parachute check 2:54 Ground training in a Harvard 4:18 Training using a classroom "dummy" plane with working landing gear 4:39 radial engine demonstration in classroom 6:54 ramp procedures 8:30 maneuvers in the Harvard trainer 13:50 landing / first solo flight 15:17 wingman and formation flight training 19:45 navigation training and use of maps

The German Air Force is the aerial warfare branch of the Bundeswehr, the armed forces of Germany. The German Air Force (as part of the Bundeswehr) was founded in 1956 during the era of the Cold War as the aerial warfare branch of the armed forces of then West Germany. After the reunification of West and East Germany in 1990, it integrated parts of the air force of the former German Democratic Republic, which itself had been founded in 1956 as part of the National People's Army. There is no organizational continuity between the current German Air Force and the former Luftwaffe of the Wehrmacht founded in 1935, which was completely disbanded in 1945/46 after World War II. The term Luftwaffe that is used for both the historic and the current German air force is the German-language generic designation of any air force.
