Butterball recommends cooking a 18lbs turkey for 4.5h at 325. At this temperature the average oven draws 3,000 Watts, meaning the energy to oven cook a turkey is 48,600,000 J.
Internet says a 80 dB scream is 0.001 Watts, so you could also try screaming for 1,541 years. Could be a family activity 🦃

One of my geophysics "fun facts" is that what heats the Earth the most is the Earth itself.
This is b/c: 1) the Earth's atmosphere/surface converts so much of the Sun's wide spectrum of radiation (e.g. UV and visible 🌈) into infrared (heat), and 2) the Earth's atmosphere is good at trapping heat🌤️

Has anyone observed STEVE from Alaska? This is just a soft ask for now, but I am compiling a list of events to study further, and if you have a photo of STEVE from Alaska (specifically near Fairbanks), feel free to comment it below with a date, time, and location!
