NASA has taken down the server for lunar phases... the whole 6000 year catalogue. I don't know for how long it has been in error but the latest spell is now a volcanic one:

I will be even more upset if responsibility is handed over to the morons at Adobe. That seems to be the way that NSA has got them to go. I am, presuming it is the NSA as Adobe is one of the least reliable server servers on the planet as regards security. I don't believe anyone on their company's payroll has any regard for security.

Just me bitching.

The fact remains that I should have been checking their data with at least two other respected websites and have not even considered it (and have never done so as far as I can remember.)

So much for Weatherlawyer on security.
It has been a long time since they put a man on the moon. Since then, of course, their successes have been marred by their spectacular failures. I wonder why.

I've no idea what you're on about, as usual, but it's rather a good track in my humble opinion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KG7Bs_BCC5w

Penzance Lovely sunshine this morning, shades needed down at Perranuthnoe beach cafe, a few disappointed surfers though.

Are you sure?

I don't know what the feck was happening with my head yesterday but it isn't that uncommon that the cells do things beyond my control.

For some reason, when the NASA database went offline, I managed to grab hold of a completely different set of data and I just went loopy.

Here to make it up to you us a video about scattering light:

The lecture starts about half way through about 28 minutes in.
Have fun.

2015/01/25 09:21. 5.5 Mb. Northern Molucca Sea
2015/01/23 03:47. 6.8 M. Vanuatu Islands

Presumably it only winds upwards. A 6.8 to a 5.5 could be negative acceleration which on a pin-wheel means a lot. Just something to bear in mind from someone who is very easily confused.


Speaking of which, I remember going to this site that day:
http://astropixels.com/ephemeris/moo...l2001year.html
to check these:
Greatest Annual Lunar Standstills: 2001 to 2100; Opening the phases at the same time then getting distracted to distraction.
Somehow I got mixed up that the time of this phenomenon was a phase:
2015 Jan 18 06:17 -18.577

It is the lowest the moon's maximum declination gets in this cycle. 18.65 two weeks earlier:
Jan 3 17:53 18.650
And the next one is Decmber 2016.

Can this possibly be the reason for the volcanics?
Yes. And not only that but the cold winters we have had:

Check out the cold spells in March 2008.
And prepare for cold spells in October 2023.

No hang on... remember mne saying I was easily confused...

Even so I think it worth bearing in mind... nah.. this isn't right they are just the greatest for each year...
Oh bugger it sort it out for yourselves as you troll along.

I'm off.
26 January 2015 looks interesting on the NA-EFS and check out the North Atlantic whilst you are at it. Also the rotation in the North Pacific is back in the realms of Pluto.

That's it, I'm gone.
