Some weird rainbow aurora things in the sky today. No camera trickery or distortion this is exactly how it looked to the eye.

What you're seeing is the chemical blocking out of the sun. Usually performed by chemtrails in previous days, but the delivery methods seem to have improved recently.

Supposedly to do with fixing climate change.... but I have my doubts. Some reading for you here; trust it as much or as little as you like.

Looks pretty cold. Ice crystals in the upper atmosphere would be my guess. Cool picture.

It was about 10°f when I took these. Here’s one more of the second one looking a little higher.

My guess is the Death Star coming for Earth. I've barricaded myself in the hallway closet. You guys can split up my r/c stuff as you see fit....

My daughter's Crested Gecko this evening. Reaching out for help to deal with his cricket eating disorder. I'm counseling him 1 on 1.

After doing some googling looks like what I saw was a “sun halo” and “circumzenithal arc” from ice crystals. Good job TRX-1-3.

My pic of the day is a tale of heartbreak and destruction. Lost about 30 kit boxes to water in the bomb shelter I was using to store them temporarily while I get the shop up and going. Been drying them out, but most are pretty well gone. Luckily all the contents are fine. This will force me to build them I suppose. Ugh.

Ouch...... Something like that would aggravate me so bad I would probably hang up the hobby for a while.

Ooh, sorry man. That sux!

A key reminder to always store stuff off the ground on pallets or blocks or whatever..
