Some excitement on the Big Island. I'm on the island furthest away.

Mona Loa erupted last night, first time in 40 years. No immediate threat to residents. This is not the Kilauea crater that erupted in 2018 when lava covered neighborhoods.

I just read the reason for the quakes since Sept is the weight of Mona Loa causing the land to shift. Is THAT a result of the increased magnetic shifting of the poles? OR is it the activity in the tunnels being blown up? There is a DUMB on the Big Island- so many kids go missing there. That is where the Obamas would spend Christmas.

Anyway

There are a few anons here that live on the Big Island.

Stay safe frens!🙏💛

um........of course it does. Do you have any idea how massive this planet is?

To capture a small portion of the horizon from a tiny perspective will give the appearance of a flat horizon.

Let me show you.

See round moon

See small segment of edge of round moon

See how flat the small segment of the edge of round moon looks when you isolate a small section of it?

I even flipped the cut out on its side and even enlarged it to mimic a photo of the horizon. YES it looks flat, yet it came from a large sphere.

Size/Scale does matter!

Here is a flat horizon photo from a large sphere-

Earth is a sphere.
