There's still Alaska

Surely we'll not go 0/3 in recovering things that are vitally important to shoot down right that minute with no additional information

You can't change the volume in my dreams

the alternate explanation makes a lot of sense though: yep, we didn't find any wreckage, which sure is lucky because otherwise we'd have to keep answering questions about it

its hard to find a deflated hobby balloon with a payload that weighs less than your phone

the right solution is to bully biden about faking three air intercepts until he ugly cries and makes the pentagon show the wreckage

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

pf only a g3? probably not gonna do crap till it hits like X69 power levels.

Although you should probably put important junk in your sealed EM vault that everyone has illegally excavated in the sub basement

e space weather dot gov claims it will be a big nothing, with only a 15% chance of substantial radio blackouts or radiation storms on the sunlit side

The way they have these mapped out is actually pretty cool. They rank them based on power and then give you the usual frequency of occurrence that amount of activity occurs

for example the most extreme forms where the grid needs to be shut down, satellites fall out of the sky, radio and navigation systems fail, did u know those happen about 1-4 times every 11 years?

I guess usually it's just aimed away from the earth

There was an X2.2 flare with a component that will graze earth on the 20th, but no significant effects are predicted. I would expect the usual brief low frequency blackouts and interruptions, but nothing serious or damaging.
