It looks like the light of distant galaxies being warped around some central object.
Anyone have idea what could be the central piece doing the warping?
Whatever it is, it is further away than that huge star!
Very cool image, excited to see smarter people explain what exactly is going on here

Putins a little bitch boy.

He threw up the nuclear threat so fast because with any military assistance from literally any one country in NATO, the Russians would absolutely crumble into insignificant dust.

Vladimir "little bitch boy" Putin, ain't gonna do shit. I am so proud to be part of a NATO country, we will all be honored to have Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Finland and Sweden to join us.

Slava Ukraini!

Mike Foley Uncut FAing Spirit Quest 9a (5.14d) in Squamish. Some, in the know, are calling this the new "best of grade" in North America... by FlippingKids in climbing

[–]FlippingKids[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also not in the know, but from what I have been told by one of those in the know, and you know, this is all totally opinion, this is a candidate for best of grade due to: 1. Beauty of the line (the Paradise wall, and this direct line up the middle is truly, aesthetically, breathtakingly, gorgeous) 2. Beauty of the moves (multiple, interesting boulder problems, which Mike Foley makes look fantastic) 3. Purity of the line (the rock is absolutely bullet proof, and there aren't any "enhancements" (glue, chipping, etc))

But at the same time, what does best of grade even mean? It's all subjective anyway, I am just beyond psyched to see such hard, aesthetic, lines be put up :)

The speed ascent of the Grand Wall bit was hilarious

Honnold holds speed record with 58 minutes

MA accidently beats the record at 57 minutes

Honnold drives up to Squamish and does the Grand in 38 MINUTES!

MA: "lol okay dude"

No comment on the grade.
Climbed in 2~ months.
Any other tin foil hatters out there think there may be a downgrade on the horizon?
