They were a couple hundred actual, co worker had one long ago in a galaxy far far away before I was born.

Quoth Wikipedia:

Amana was acquired in 1965 by Raytheon,[7] which had invented the microwave oven in 1947, and introduced the commercial Radarange Model 1611 in 1954.[8] In 1967, Amana introduced a consumer model of the Radarange, the first popular microwave designed for home use.[9]

Betteridge's law of headlines - Wikipedia
A headline with a question mark at the end means, in the vast majority of cases, that the story is tendentious or over-sold. It is often a scare story, or an attempt to elevate some run-of-the-mill piece of reporting into a national controversy and, preferably, a national panic.

But still.... If it consumes radioactive waste, isn't it worth doing at an economic loss?

OTOH, put me in mind of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thousand_Eyes_of_Dr._Mabuse

Haven't watched, but lofting tons of tungsten into orbit will never match the throw weight of redirected asteroids.

This Island Earth - Wikipedia
Exeter takes both Earthers back to his world, sealing them in conditioning tubes to normalize the pressure differences between the planets. They land safely on Metaluna, but the planet is under bombardment by Zagon spaceships guiding flaming meteors as weapons against them.

This strikes me as odd.

When all possible explanations have been eliminated?

Ground water.

Fulgurite
Fulgurites, commonly known as "fossilized lightning", are natural tubes, clumps, or masses of sintered, vitrified, and/or fused soil, sand, rock, organic debris and other sediments that sometimes form when lightning discharges into ground. When composed of silica, fulgurites are classified as a variety of the mineraloid lechatelierite. Wikipedia

This is a faint echo of the forces that forged the mesas of the American Southwest.

Well would you look at that.
Cohesive plasma chunks blasting away from the sun.
It would seem the ancient one is wrong again.

I saw Suspicious 0bservers' heads-up last night, but hadn't remembered that and I already have seven tabs awaiting (includes Scott Adams and Anton Petrov).

He didn't say if it was 35 degrees ahead or behind us.

edit: I jumped my own queue, He showed the eruption but didn't comment. Out of the Southeast quadrant.

Best one since 2012.

2nd edit: I sorted the queue to bring Anton Petrov to the front.

Wow! Magnetic Super Bubble Surrounding the Solar System Mapped For the First Time

I think I get that they can read the magnetic orientation of the dust particles swept up by the bubble; but... The implication is that the Earth entered a bubble that spawned a lot of blue stars, therefore younger. Earth may be the oldest star system for hundreds of light years?

The bigger picture looks like Milky Way by Van Gogh

Does it then fall back in?

"Does it fall back"?
Nope. And it wasn't even that big of a flare that blasted it away. Almost like the sun spots are cooler than normal, as if something is changing.
