Trump as Jesus

There's an easy way to find out if this is blasphemy or not. Crucify him and have a look on the third day.

A heart-breaking moment captured in an SS photograph of a group of Hungarian Jews at Auschwitz II-Birkenau in or around May 1944.

A child found a flower & is giving or showing it to an older boy.

All the people in the picture were murdered in a gas chamber moments later.

And the second strongest typhoon so early in the year.

Jeg blev født, da CO₂-koncentrationen var 317 ppm (parts per million). I dag er det 426 ppm.

From the coming weekend, winter is over in central Europe.

Come on. Do you really believe there will be fair midterms?!

Oh, you actually SAW them?

Aurora over Copenhagen 19 January 2026

Well, I've seen the aurora in Greenland, Svalbard and Alaska, but never before in Copenhagen (even though I tried at least 30 times). But tonight, I was lucky. Between 22.15 and 22.30 not to the north, but rather almost above me.

These are the icy mountains of Pluto. It took 9 years to get these magnificent images… and 4.8 billion kilometers.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Cold winter weather in Europe is coming to an end on Monday.

News from the Danish public service station DR about Maduro (headlines, in Danish).

Den grønlandske regering har ikke brug for rådgivning, heller ikke fra mig.
Men ville man spørge mig alligevel, ville jeg anbefale at parkere en tankvogn fyldt med kerosin midt på runway i Nuuk hver nat. En flyver med marines, og det hele er forbi, før vi kan sige "f*ck, hvad er det?".

To cite the president whose name I cannot remember, closing down NCAR will be yet another step towards the United Sh*tholes of America.

Guest post: How the Greenland ice sheet fared in 2025 - Carbon Brief Guest authors explore how Greenland’s ice sheets fared over the 12 months, including the evidence that the territory’s summer melting season is lengthening.

Finally, here it is. Also this year, I have together with @ruthmottram.bsky.social commented on the fate of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Thanks for your patience, @carbonbrief.org. One of the highlights: 2024/25 was the 29th year in a row with net mass loss. See www.carbonbrief.org/guest-post-h...

Africa seen by African journalists. Highly recommended!

Have a safe trip and successful field work!

Thanks to our colleagues from #DTUSpace for preparing and providing the data!

And that's why there will be no midterms.

Time series showing the mass balance for the Greenland Ice Sheet from April 2002 to July 2025. There is a gain in the mass of ice when there is precipitation, and a loss when snow and ice melt and when icebergs break off from the ice sheet’s major outlet glaciers. The difference in these mass changes over a glaciological year (September-August) is called the total mass balance of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Shown here is the month-by-month mass change measured in gigatonnes, Gt (1 Gt is 1 milliard (UK) or 1 billion (US) tonnes or 1 cubic kilometer of water). The data is obtained from the GRACE and GRACE-FO satellites. Over the last 23 years, the ice sheet has lost about 5200 gigatonnes of ice. This has led to a sea level rise of 1.5 centimetres.

New GRACE data available on the Polar Portal. From April 2002 to July 2025, the Greenland Ice Sheet has lost roughly 5200 gigatonnes (=km³). This has contributed 1.5 cm to global sea level rise and would be enough to cover Denmark with 121 m of water.

Hurricane Melissa, an extremely dangerous category 5 hurricane with a core pressure of 892 hPa (rank 3) and maximum sustained winds of 295 km/h (also rank 3) just before landfall on Jamaica's south coast. After crossing the island, it will also hit eastern Cuba. Note that one can see "down" the eye.

The leftmost five stars of Big Dipper can be seen in the upper right corner. The bright star near the lower left corner is Arcturus, the fourth brightest star in the skies. Halfway between Alkaid (the leftmost star of Big Dipper) and Arcturus, comet Lemmon is the greenish spot which slightly looks out of focus.

The comet is in the lower left corner. Note the tiny tail. Note also the second star in Big Dipper, which actually is a double star (Alkor and Mizar).

Lemmon is the greenish dot left of the middle of the photo.

Not extremely convincing, but I managed to see comet Lemmon. All photos with my Samsung S22, night mode, three minutes exposure.
