Meanwhile, Republicans trying to find the climate change:

Buckle up, Bible Belt. It's going to be wild.

- God is mad at them for being so mean to their trans neighbors. It's the only explanation.

  Nah, that's our collective karma for not caring for our habitat.

To quote Red Dwarf:

"All hands on deck, swirly thing alert!"

28
- "Red alert!"
  
  "Are you sure sir? It does mean changing the bulb"

- A rare Red Dwarf quote in the wild.
  
  You are an individual of quality.

How did they make the earth look like a sphere?

- Fisheye lens

Wow the ISS has a really really low orbit!

21
- It does, you can capture it with any halfway decent camera so long as it’s backlit by the sun and it’s dark out (and your timing is perfect)
  
  23
- It's only about 250 miles (400 km) high

Huge white cotton asshole

Oh boy, that looks big. I'm glad I'm really far away from that and good luck to anyone who isn't as lucky as me, seriously.

JFC, almost looks like a still from 2012 or the Day after Tomorrow.

- ... Roland Emmerich must be working on the final entry in his trilogy.

With everything going wrong in the world today, I still live in child-like awe of photos from or of Space.

I'm grateful that I live in an age where I've seen photos from orbit become more and more high resolution. As scary as that hurricane looks, the fidelity of it looks absolutely beautiful.

Here's hoping it wipes out Mar A Lago. So the dipshit can get his lackies to push relief fund to people who need it and not to Ron I am A Cocksucker Desantis.

I hope everyone in the path of this beast survives.

That hurricane is some galactic level catastrophy boss level destruction about to happen... Lots of people are going to die. Godspeed to those hunkering down.

Take THAT flat-earthers!

No, wait...

This would be even cooler with a whole days worth of fly-bys showing the progression of size.

  Thank you.
  
  That helped me find a non-Twitter link: https://www.sen.com/video/570871d0-340c-475e-af31-26115ff6ed83
  
  But I bet there’s an actual original source somewhere.

Mother Nature is going to fuck up the Florida Oblast.

I’d like to see that without the lens distortion.
