Moon with seagulls, nature at its best...

The Moon, sky & 2 seagulls just now but through a window, so not as clear & sharp as it could be...

Ref the other platform, so my apologies including it here if you've left there, but here are 2 screenshots of Grok's amusing interpretation on the physics of the whimsical world of neutrinos thread I wrote originally on that platform(1st link), of which I copied here(scroll up) x.com/grok/status/...

I could try that. I've used my lights for indoor sets & effects on special occasions at home (parties, events) & want more outdoor 1s.
I made this lit up Halloween Wizard, set & vid yrs ago:

"You stole my star"
Coldplay from Princess of China
I want to be Rihanna here with Chris 🥰.
I'm going to make a toned down version of this dress with material tied at the wrist but as a top, that Rihanna wore in this vid!
Also, I already wear my hair similar to hers here

I'm planning on doing something similar on a much smaller scale, for my garden next yr. I collect lights (small stage LED Pars, a couple of lasers & 2 flower (specific lighting effect) lights plus loads more. When I go through my box room, I'll do a short thread & pics on them here & other platform.

Civilisation is still learning how to get along whilst developing advanced military technologies because of perceived threats, where the 2 may or may not be related but more research on the science of decision making as game theory, would be very useful.Regardless, mathematics & psychology are vital

Here's the same whimsical physics of neutrinos thread but linked to the copy I wrote here after the original on the other platform.
I'm gradually copying over my threads & thoughts to this platform so there's a balance of my projects on both
All good fun but taking time...

Grok is very useful & I did ask it about what it thought of my whimsical physics of neutrinos thread I wrote a while ago & this was its reply linked to other platform if you missed it before
I think AI should be used with caution & as such, a tool not to be taken too seriously

I just think the North doesn't have as many of these science & mathematics types of outreach events. An e.g how the @londoninst.bsky.social hosts in such luxurious & inspiring seminar rooms as Ananyo's @ananyo.bsky.social post shows (© pic reference & linked to other platform)

I was born the same yr & month that this Apollo 12 Lunar Module (LM) in a lunar landing configuration was photographed, & whilst in lunar orbit from the Command and Service Modules (CSM) in November 1969.
I was just thinking, how good it'd be to go back to the Moon, if only for a brief time

@Peterlewis55.bsky.social great chat with u tonight on some very important subjects. Hope u don't mind me screenshotting thrm here as a continuation for any1 who may have caught my original post at the start. It was a good thinking exercise, even if we didn't change the world.

A fascinating science, & I like this plasma photo they used to illustrate the physics & energy for the #Fusion Pilot Plant (FPP) programme results from ST40 #tokamak @aip-publishing.bsky.social Division of Plasma Physics (I think correct?)
I can't find the copyright info for picture but will later.

The reason why I'm still using Twitter today.
Over the yrs on that platform, I've written threads on subjects I've studied & have experience in, whilst making valuable connections with like minded people who also still use it, so I'm not using it because I want to endorse its owner.

I'd noticed Cloudflare froze half the internet this morning!
Interesting timing though not subjects I'd post online but a few news stories out this morning seem to be possibly related, some local, some international but I could be wrong
Interesting times...

A Gap In The Leap
Sir Professor Roger Penrose's #mathematical #physics, suggests science hasn't yet found a definite way to understand the human brain on a quantum level, much less how it thinks & the mind as a concept in itself. This is important today.
Advances in AI are leaping without thought.

A yr after spending a day at astronomer Sir Patrick Moore's house, I attended an astronomy presentation on his work, in London at the Royal Institution - 1 presenter was Dr John Mason. Link to screenshots of vids & link to 1 of those videos I took of it. @rigb.org photos.app.goo.gl/LmCyS8p5jfP3...
