Week 9 is also the coldest globally since at least 2003.

On July 15, 1942, a flight of six P-38s and two B-17 bombers, with a total of 25 crew members on board, took off from Presque Isle Air Base in Maine headed for the U.K.  What followed was a harrowing and life-threatening landing of the entire squadron on a remote ice cap in Greenland. (See photo of downed P-38 from the “Lost Squadron.”)  Miraculously, none of the crew was lost and they were all rescued and returned safely home after spending several days on the desolate ice.

Fifty years later a small group of aviation enthusiasts decided to locate that squadron, who had come to be known as “The Lost Squadron,” and to recover one of the lost P-38s.  It turned out to be no easy task, as the planes had been buried under 25 stories of ice and drifted over a mile from their original location.

This is a very tough pattern matching problem :

planet  atmospheric pressure     % CO2       Temperature
------  --------------------     -----       -----------
Mars    very low                 95%         very low
Earth   medium                   <1%         medium
Venus   very high                95%         very high

Is the temperature determined by the atmospheric composition, or the atmospheric pressure? It doesn’t take billions and billions of brain cells to figure it out.

SAN FRANCISCO ( AP ) – The late astronomer and author Carl Sagan was a secret but avid marijuana smoker, crediting it with inspiring essays and scientific insight, according to Sagan’s biographer.

“I find that today a single joint is enough to get me high …  in one movie theater recently I found I could get high just by inhaling the cannabis smoke which permeated the theater,” wrote Sagan, who authored popular science books such as “Cosmos,” “Contact,” and “The Dragons of Eden.”

In the essay, Sagan said marijuana inspired some of his intellectual work.

“I can remember one occasion, taking a shower with my wife while high, in which I had an idea on the origins and invalidities of racism in terms of gaussian distribution curves,” wrote the former Cornell University professor.  “I wrote the curves in soap on the shower wall, and went to write the idea down.

Sooner or later his promised climate catastrophe really is going to happen.
