NASA says three asteroids will pass Earth by a close margin today; Check speed, size and more
Just yesterday, 3 asteroids passed Earth by a close margin. While none of them were considered “Potentially Hazardous Asteroids”, the biggest of them was 150 feet wide, making it almost as big as an aircraft. Such close approaches by celestial objects such as asteroids and comets serve as a reminder of the dangerous potential they possess and the need to continuously monitor their trajectories.…

House-sized asteroid hurtling towards Earth for close approach, NASA reveals
With its advanced tech such as the NEOWISE telescope, Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), Pans-STARRS1 and Catalina Sky Survey, NASA has revealed details about an asteroid that will come close to Earth. An asteroid, given the designation of Asteroid 2023 TC1, is on its way towards Earth and could make its closest approach to the planet today, October 13.
NASA has tracked this…

The Asteroid Field Chase and Escape - Empire Strikes Back - Star Wars Episode IV. I am not a big fan of chases in movies but this one is not your regular chase. Han's skills and Leia with the Force on her side (although unaware she is strong with the Force) manage to escape these pesty Tie-Fighters and evade the highly dangerous asteroids makes this one scene one of my favorite parts in the movie and and just one of my favorite scenes of all time. #StarWars #EmpireStrikesBack #TheAsteroidBeltChase #TheForce

1, 8, 15 !!
ahhhh hello overdue!! thanks for stopping by :]
1. What is a piece of symbolism in your fic?
i'll do A Flower That Resembles You for this one!!
i wrote Will's canon Mindflayer struggles as a more metaphorical issue here, mainly using descriptions of shadows and eyes piercing the back of his neck as a metaphor for everyone's favorite friend depression. instead of it being this supernatural entity to overcome, i made it a condition he becomes infected with and has to learn how to cope with and live with, which he does over the course of the fic! i was going through it when i wrote the majority of this fic and didn't even realize how bad i was doing until i started reading over the fic and was like "hey why does this sound so sound and also relatable :)"
8. Are the locations in your fic based on the real world? How accurate are they? Have you added your own locations? (e.g. town, street, building, etc)
i'll also do aftry for this one!! i based a lot of Will's experiences in his shack by the sea, the forest, and the garden with my own :D when i was in college, i lived alone in a rural area by a lake, so i often spent a lot of time outside poking around and staring at the water and the trees and the stars. all that time outside came in handy for a lot of the nature descriptions i used
15. Tell us a fun fact about your fic/wip!
ok so the thing that has consumed my soul for the past week i can't say anything about because it is a gift and i can't start posting it until next week but please humbly accept this cryptic image from a Twice music video that i've used as a little bit of inspiration

NY / Ryan Patrick Krueger: Documents from the Closet
Courtesy of the Artist and Rivalry Projects, Buffalo, NY
Ryan Patrick Krueger: Documents from the Closet
August 5 - September 10, 2023
Opening reception: August 5, 2023, 5-8pm
Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York is pleased to present Documents from the Closet, a solo installation of work by Ryan Patrick Krueger, curated by Samantha Box. This exhibition marks Krueger’s New York City debut, and is accompanied by a curatorial text written by Mary Lee Hodgens, artist and former Assistant Director of Light Work, Syracuse.
Documents from the Closet
Mary Lee Hodgens
For their ongoing project, Documents from the Closet, artist Ryan Patrick Krueger works with a personal collection of LGBTQ+ archives, vernacular photographs, and ephemera to tell a story about grief, loss, and courage. The artist weaves together two narratives, an unflinching effort to understand personal losses and identity through an exploration that begins in the historical oppression of gay men.
In the gallery, Krueger props seven-foot-tall pine boxes precariously against the walls, balanced atop piles of dirt or sand. In size and shape, the boxes feel reminiscent of monuments, gravestones, or coffins. Each box contains a history lesson: formally elegant collages of monochromatic black-and-white shapes that Krueger punctuates with flourishes of pink, red, and the bright yellow of shipping envelopes. Collage is about finding new meaning in the juxtaposition of disparate elements. For Krueger, this process of isolating, truncating, or layering visual information allows for dialogue with the past while telling their own newer story.
In 2011, Krueger began an eBay search using phrases such as “gay interest” and “vintage gay photograph” to hunt down photographs depicting what they describe as “tenderness, friendship, intimacy, and true love.” These photographs, including tintypes and photo booth portraits, show us men—now long gone—embracing or sometimes just mugging for the camera. Played out decades ago, these fleeting moments of connection and intimacy now feel furtive. Krueger allows us to see their process by including eBay receipts and the handwritten envelopes in which a network of other collectors of “gay interest” move and share these documents. We grieve these lives with the artist, who asks us to consider both the complexities of living a double life in pre-Stonewall America and our own human need for connection and community.
Krueger references many iconic gay artists, activists, and organizations here, including Act Up, David Deitcher, Essex Hemphill, Hal Fischer, Jonathan Ned Katz, Marlon Riggs, the Mattachine Society, and David Wojnarowicz. The artists also layers many symbols of the struggle over the documents, including a red tie, pink triangles, a locket containing the ashes of a childhood best friend, red boxing gloves, and clippings of classified ads from the pages of a defunct 1990’s LGBTQ+ newspaper.
What emerges is that Krueger’s embrace of LGBTQ+ American history allows them to stand on a timeline that faces forward. Although each box feels final and heavy with grief, there is also a sense of triumph. In acknowledging those who’ve gone before, Krueger transforms the boxes into protest banners. Furtiveness falls away, and in its place comes acceptance and yes, pride. As artist and AIDs activist David Wojnarowicz said, “To make the private into something public is an action that has terrific ramifications.”
Ryan Patrick Krueger holds a BFA in Photography from Pacific Northwest College of Art in Portland, Oregon, and was formerly Digital Services Coordinator for Light Work, a non-profit artist-run photography organization at Syracuse University. Krueger has curated exhibitions and held shows nationally including Documents from the Closet at the Everson Museum of Art (Syracuse, NY), On Longing at MONACO (St. Louis, MO), Response Response (with Linda Kliewer in Portland, OR), and Queer Moments: Selections from the Light Work Collection (Syracuse, NY). Most recently, Krueger exhibited work in the 2022 FotoFest Biennial, If I Had A Hammer, (Houston, TX), and appeared in Aperture, Art in America, and Sixty Inches From Center.

Aftermath of Chicxulub impact if the dinosaur-killer asteroid strike happened today. See video description for sources of data/latest articles.
youtube
If you skim forward, be sure to check the end where it speeds up to cover longterm effects.
Ejecta means "stuff tossed out," both from the impactor and the ground.
There's a lag before the tsunamis start. I'm guessing that's because the ocean has to fill the hole in it caused by water simply vaporizing, then the 180 km wide, 20-km deep crater in the Earth's crust, before it can rebound.
The "thermal impact" chart has a heat scale on the left and a luminosity scale on the right, "radiant flux," measuring how many times brighter it is than the Sun.
See below for a key to the the earthquake intensity scale they're using, which you may have seen on "Did you feel it?" shakemaps produced by the USGS.
This simulation suggests the earthquake subsides after about half an hour (YIKES), but recent studies hint the Earth may have quivered for days, even months.
The video's caption says the earthquakes are color-coded using the MSK earthquake intensity scale, common in Europe, Russia, and the Middle East. But when I checked the links in the video description, it turned out the software they're using simulates the Modified Mercalli intensity used in the Americas.
It doesn't really matter. As you can see from the two charts below, they're basically the same.
Medvedev–Sponheuer–Karnik scale
From Wikipedia.

Hey Sophie, I've never seen a Wes Anderson movie! Any suggestions on what to start with?
Hey! Oooo, yeah, I think I'd say to start either with Fantastic Mr. Fox or The Royal Tenenbaums?
The latter was my entry point to Wes Anderson and is definitely the one of his I've rewatched the most. The cast is amazing, but I think it encapsulates a lot of what I love about his work at its purest which is stylisation and comedy for the sake of emphasising genuinely human moments, and emotional truths that just rip a hole in you. If I was to ever make a list of my top fifty movies, I think The Royal Tenanbaums would be on it (Ben Stiller's line deliver of I've had a rough year, dad is genuinely iconic to me).
Fantastic Mr. Fox I think though is just both good and pretty accessible? His style of writing/direction/filmmaking lends itself well to stop motion, and he's a bit of a dream match for Roald Dahl adaptations tbh. It's a great movie and a great story anyway, and particularly if you feel inclined / know you like animation, I think Fantastic Mr. Fox is a very good place to start.
#i do genuinely love wes anderson's films overall but i don't love all his work which is okay!#my most controversial opinion is i don't like moonrise kingdom#and i don't reaaaally like life aquatic either#funnily enough i took my mum#a Known Wes Anderson Hater#haha#to asteroid city this week and she (and i) loved it a lot#she was like hmmm maybe you can reintroduce me to wes anderson movies as we were leaving the cinema hahaha#she's only ever otherwise seen life aquatic and darjeeling limited and LOOK#i do get why you wouldn't like him if those were your only exposure to him#he can sometimes lean a bit style over substance#because his work IS so highly stylised#but it's why when he strikes the right balance his stuff just sings y'know?#film asks#welcome to my ama#i also had a couple of weeks off but am now BACK to seeing movies every tuesday at the cinema and it's genuinely the best

hihihi!! did a little stalking of ur blog to refresh the vibes and now i’m ready to rec songs🫡
this was the first one i thought of bc i rlly do consider u a friend & u are so nice and comforting and sweet just like this song🫂
don’t have much of an explanation but i am looking thru my summer playlist & this is SUCH a bop, it’s just so fun and very high-energy!! gives me overdue asteroid vibes for sure😎
ok this one’s more specific bc i was looking for songs that had to do w/ asteroids and i found this on someone’s playlist—i think this captures the vibe of ur moniker perfectly honestly, and i’ve always found the phrase “overdue asteroid” so interesting to begin with. it’s so poetic & meaningful and there’s a lot of ways to interpret it—i won’t get into it here but i was thinking about it a lot after you sent this ask and i just think it’s so cool!! so this song is just something a lil different to capture that feeling.
this one’s for two reasons—one, bc i associate u with my rewrite series (your comments are always so nice!!) and second, because the lines “over the coast, everyone’s convinced / it’s a government drone, or an alien spaceship” also reminds me of the overdue asteroid vibe. the whole song does, honestly, because of the whole “end of the world” thing!! again, just a very cool phrase to associate yourself with. i’m a big fan.
honestly the only reason i clicked this one was bc overdrive sounds like overdue so! but also this is just a super fun song & i love conan with my entire heart so here u go.
hope you like these!! definitely 2 different vibes but i think you fit both of them :) anyway u are very friend-shaped in my brain and i want to thank u so so much for all the interactions over the past few months. i treasure every one.💗🫂
#the overdue asteroid strikes again#am i allowed to use that idk😭#but! ur very cool and i had fun doing this#ty for the ask <3333

Once this damn strike is over scarlett Johansson needs to stop talking about skincare and get her ass back on the big screen. If for nothing else do it for my mental health Scarlett, I beg. The strike already took away Emily blunt + cevans press, I won’t let it turn academy award nominated scarjo into an influencer !! 😤😭
#asteroid city was like fresh rain during a draught🥹#now we’re in another draught again#I miss her ass being in movies!!#she’s the only actor or actress I’ll ALWAYS see a movie for idc what it is#good or bad#I’m there#scarlett johansson#chris evans#sag strike#evie talks#evie shitposts

actually yk what. if you see a poc actor be removed from a mainstream show without even a call, and said mainstream show already has a history of using its poc characters to further a white character and then sidelining or removing them entirely, and your first reaction is to speculate wildly about in-universe theories where poc character is kidnapped by the government, then. well i just think you're misreading the situation
#this is literally not the first time its happened. do we remember kali#im not tagging this post im sure itll find its audience#the overdue asteroid strikes again
