There are billions of people and a version of normal to go along with each one of them. No two versions are exactly the same. There will be hundreds of thousands of little things that make up your version of normal. With any luck you can find people that have close to the same idea of what normal is that you do. These are your friends. Anyone else you try to tolerate as best you can.
....
The exact definition of normal depends on who's running the asylum.

5720 - The satellite's are EVERYWHERE!
Where are all the Starlink satellites? Click on the link to see an interactive map. Lots of stuff to look at.
They are part of the amazing network of high-tech communications satellites that enable the spread of utter bullshit around the world at the speed of light.
Bill - And soon the whole world can get in on the fun!
Lady - I'm not so lucky in suburban St. Louis. I can't even see meteor showers. Too many city lights. Speaking of city lights, do you remember when the power went out in the LA area and all the stars became visible? People were calling the police asking what was going on in the sky.
Deb - Keep an eye on this map. If you see satellites clustering over your house... RUN!
If all were joined by a thread or two they could hod the world together like a crocheted bowling ball cover. What were the squares that glowed yellow then red? I was a bit disappointed that earth didn't slowly spin so we could see Australia.
Oh my. I had no idea there were so many.
ReplyDeleteI worry about traffic and trash out there. I really do
ReplyDeleteSue - And that's just one company. Google wants to put 3000+ more out there.
ReplyDeleteCloudia - Especially the trash.

ReplyDeleteYes on a clear night camping we see many many satellites go by. It is like one every few minutes.
ReplyDeleteWe're surrounded -- SURROUNDED!

Ha - no I don't remember that. But I am fortunate to live near some great dark sky areas and we camp a lot!

ReplyDeleteThe universe is incredible, hard to imagine how incredible.
ReplyDeleteSusan - We may not be able to see the universe if they put up too many more satellites.

River - You can spin it with your mouse. And the red squares (I think) are ground stations.
