Bring your best Halloween-themed shows to show to the club! As usual, we'll be meeting from 6-11 pm in SHER 003 and virtually on Discord. In addition, we'll be hosting a game night TOMORROW NIGHT from 6-8 pm in the Student Org Lounge. Join us for an evening of food and fun with your friends, as pizza and other treats will be provided!

Countdown to Calving at Antarctica's Brunt Ice Shelf

Cracks growing across Antarctica’s Brunt Ice Shelf are poised to release an iceberg with an area about twice the size of New York City, (about 604 square miles). It is not yet clear how the remaining ice shelf will respond following the break, posing an uncertain future for scientific infrastructure and a human presence on the shelf that was first established in 1955.

NASA Earth Observatory image by Joshua Stevens, using Landsat data from the U.S. Geological Survey. Story by Kathryn Hansen, with image interpretation by Chris Shuman (NASA/UMBC).

The above image, from the Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8, shows the area on January 23, 2019. The crack along the top of the image—the so-called Halloween crack—first appeared in late October 2016 and continues to grow eastward from an area known as the McDonald Ice Rumples. The rumples are due to the way ice flows over an underwater formation, where the bedrock rises high enough to reach into the underside of the ice shelf. This rocky formation impedes the flow of ice and causes pressure waves, crevasses, and rifts to form at the surface.

The more immediate concern is the rift visible in the center of the image. Previously stable for about 35 years, this crack recently started accelerating northward as fast as 4 kilometers per year.

Calving is a normal part of the life cycle of ice shelves, but the recent changes are unfamiliar in this area. The edge of the Brunt Ice Shelf has evolved slowly since Ernest Shackleton surveyed the coast in 1915, but it has been speeding up in the past several years.

Hope you're gonna have a nice halloween

Thanks art, I hope you do too! I’m probably going to have at the very least an interesting Halloween, if not a crazy Halloween. The Japanese people who are visiting want to go to DC that day (just for general tourism) so that has the potential to be quite the extreme, trial by fire initiation into American culture for them.

As a bonus, here’s one of my favorite Halloween memories:

Taken at my alma mater, UMBC, in 2003. The trash on Kool-Aid Man’s face is actually fangs, as we dressed him up as “Draculaid.” No idea where the cape went by the time this photo was taken. Mr. Peanut was “Simon Shellmont,” replete with a shitty costume whip. The best part may be that we ran into UMBC’s president Freeman Hrabowski (for a high-resolution image of Dr. Hrabowski, click here), who posed for a photo op:

Fuck UMBC, but damn if the reactions, et al we got from these costumes didn’t reverberate throughout my life to come, as, uh, certain things I’ve done on the SMT side confirm. I still have the Kool-Aid Man costume but Mr. Peanut was lost to time (totally my fault).
