This background image is an artist impression of a rare class of neutron stars. SGR 0501+4516, a member of a select class of objects called magnetars. These stellar remnants are the most magnetized objects in the cosmos. Only 15 are known. This one is 15.000 lightyears away. Would it be half the distance of our moon, all creditcards on earth would instantly be demagnetized. Now there's a thought ... !?
"There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened." Douglas Adams
And isn't this a beautiful sight ... does this mean something?

The white area in the West Pacific Ocean shows the largest increase in sealevel, while the purple and pink areas around the Southern Ocean mark the greatest decrease. These areas will be affected most due to the South Pole ice sheets melting.
It is the breath
the thumping of blood
the reflex of consequence
that is free from cause.
Despite the turmoil
nothing is present
besides the two of us
the unity of instinct.
Unaware of our bodies
we spiral to
the sparkling river
and touch it as mayflies
we shine in the sunset
insatiable
without destiny.
Alive for the aeons
one breath in
two heartbeats out
and eternally die.
Hallo Thon, Fijn weekend gehad? Al plannen voor vakantie, festivals, gigjes of gewoon ff nix met deze hitte?
Voor mij is het nu rustig, pas in Augustus, de 16de; The Bad Shepherds (punk covers met fluit & uillian pipes (met Troy Donockley)) in Eindhoven en 3 September Ulysses & Sons of Seasons in de nieuwe Nor (een mix van stevige Prog, Jazz en metal met leden van Kamelot, Blaze, Doro Metalium).
Fiets voorzichtig & een mooie zomer toegewenst, Nick from the lovely South of the Netherlands @ MostlyPink.nl.
PS Nieuwe interviews met Marcela Bovio (Stream of Passion) & Robin Beck zijn online + cd competities; Mostly Autumn (dé Celtic Floyd)(3 cd box) + Riverside + Mangrove (schitterende Nederlandse Prog) + Troy Donockley (review @ Progwereld) + gratis kaartjes. En believe me geen spam geen nothing just free!
Thanks for the support!
Deze opzet gaat echt heel cool worden. Volg ons de komende tijd, je gaat nog van ons horen.
Nogmaals: bedankt & je kan later zeggen dat je er vanaf het begin bij was ... lol.
