The seething visible surface of the Sun.

Each of these cell-like structures is about the size of Texas.

They’re granules where hot plasma rises and cooler material sinks back down.

Details as small as 30km are visible.

"With the first link, the chain is forged.

The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably."

We weren't vigilant enough, and now it's costing us a lot more.

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this.

Smashed records.
