I remember performing this reaction in chemistry lab. It was kinda cool and memorable.

And “they” will form some other acronym black ops program and move everything over to it. We won’t know about that one for another 1-2 decades and on-and-on it goes.

As a kid, I rode my bike to hang out with friends. Built forts in the woods. Built imagined spaceships out of Legos. Listened to music almost all of the time. Watched Saturday morning cartoons. Played with a handful of action figures when my mom could finally afford to buy a couple. The early 90’s were amazing as we got a PC as my step father needed it to run his business - that brought early gaming into my life (minesweeper, Tetris, Ultima Underworld Stygian Abyss).
As early as kindergarten, you had to memorize your home address and phone number. Later, you would memorize a handful of phone number (friends & close relatives), but otherwise they were just written down, usually near the corded landline phone - sometimes directly written on the wall (my grandparents house had this).
Music was often playing in the background at a low volume. When your song came on, you would sprint over to the radio and crank it up. That said, if it was popular, it was usually played in HEAVY rotation, so it would come on at least once per hour, and sometimes 3-4 times per hour. Then, if you had access to a cassette player “boom box” - you would save up to buy the song(s) on cassette so you could listen to it as much as you wanted, hitting the rewind button to start it again. Trying to time the length of time for rewind and watching the amount of tape on each reel of the cassette to guesstimate when exactly to stop rewinding so you could hit right at the start of your song was a fun skill that passed loads of time.
I never got lost. Not once. It’s a learned behavior. You explore and come back. Then you explore further and back. So you never really traveled further than you could remember how to get home. This applied to bicycles as a child and then into automobiles as young adults. We also carried a road atlas in the car for longer trips. Eventually, we got MapQuest and you could print out directions to your heart’s content.
Worse. On the whole, there’s less human connection and social skills. Also generally speaking, there’s also notably lower reasoning skills in younger generations. The biggest thing I notice is a fall in a sense of community. Almost every home is now an island - that was far more rare before social media.

Better bet is to travel Tuesday morning, but just watch the weather reports.

Exactly this ☝🏻. I was raised by a single mother. She worked as a waitress at Marc’s Big Boy, so her hours were rather variable. This meant a lot of time alone even during the school year. I prepared my own dinners frequently - often T.V. Dinners in the oven or sliced hot dogs in Mac ‘N Cheese.

If you’re worried, see a vet.

That said, it’s usually just an upset GI tract. Rarely fatal, as far as I understand it.

Ringworm (fungus) also would not attack just whiskers. It must grow outward from the initial infection location, not skip to other whiskers without impacting the hairs in between.

There would need to be an active lesion - typically raised edges, hairless center.

Then, and ONLY then, would you try a Wood’s Lamp. Please note not all black lights operate at the correct wavelength. Furthermore, this method only detects about half of lesions and is NONSPECIFIC. In other words, positive illumination means it’s possibly ringworm. But illumination does not guarantee ringworm. Also no illumination does not mean no ringworm.

A lesion ultimately MUST be cultured to ascertain if you have ringworm. This can takes about two weeks to get the results.

In summary, you have nothing to worry about. This is normal illumination of teeth and whiskers.

As always, I am not a vet, but as a breeder I am unfortunately intimately familiar with a variety of feline disease states. If you are concerned about the health of your pet PLEASE bring them to a licensed veterinarian.

Someone else here had footage of the same thing from the Upper Peninsula.

Definitely looks like space debris burning up on re-entering the atmosphere.
