dust

hmmm...

suddenly feeling pretty insignificant, after browsing the image and movie archives at noaa's website for space weather. sxi and trace imagery is pretty awesome... and it certainly puts your role in the universe into perspective. i especially like the movie of venus crossing in front of our view of the sun... like a little chunk of flotsam floating by in an ocean. again, i feel the day beginning to draw to a close, and i haven't really done squat. i have a meeting to plan my next trip into the field in a little while, so hopefully i can at least feel like i've achieved something today.
