I love & lust insatiably, but I cannot allow myself to be loved. At times my passions almost seem to consume me. I crave to be close to you and will pursue you relentlessly, but in the end I'll still keep you at arms length. Am I broken? Am I mad?

Typhoon Haiyan from Geostationary Orbit. Sometimes things that are beautiful from far away are very different from up close: by the time it weakened, six thousand lives were lost and eleven million were homeless. js

What’s happening outside this cave? Nothing unexpected – it’s just the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy passing by. As the Earth turns, the band of our Galaxy appears to rotate and shift along the horizon. The featured image was taken by a photographer who professes a passion for locating sea caves, and who found this spectacular grotto in Leo Carrillo State Park near Malibu, California, USA. After some planning, he timed this single shot image through the 10-meter high cave entrance to show the Milky Way far in the distance. In the foreground, several rocks about one meter across are visible. Visible in the background starscape are millions of stars including the relatively bright and orange Antares, situated just to the right of the image center.
