Fart means speed or travel in Danish. Overfart means crossing. So in this case i'd expect this museum to display artifacts of the town and the ship crossings that left from that city.

I believe that its mostly about a boat crossings between the island if Sjælland and Fyn that has now been replaced with a very massive bridge

Technically it is Trump who has proved that Biden could legally have this done.

If only Trump had the same view on political violence..

ok guys.. Option "A" is castration. I don't care how elaborate option "B" is, but we're going with that!

The funny thing is, that they could be living like kings and queens if everybody did pay their taxes

Yeah modern cars do. Back then though, they didn't even have seat belts. The glass roof, was the least of their problems if they crashed

They were pretty innovative back then!

I'd expect this can to be above upper class models though LOL

 

I only noticed today, due to the Tour de France finishing there, but Rimini has some huge beaches! Also they seem to have constructed some sort of wave breaker, to give calmer waters for visitors (?). It does look amazin from a distance

Slightly furhter north, still in Rimini, but on the other side of "Porto di Rimini" the beaches get even larger!

ORP Wicher ORP Wicher (English: Whirlwind) was a Project 30bis destroyer, transferred to the People's Republic of Poland from the Soviet Union in 1958.[2] She was built by the Zhdanov shipyard in Leningrad and originally commissioned into the Soviet Baltic Fleet as the Skoryy ("Rapid") in 1951, and transferred to Poland in 1958 together with a second ship, ORP Grom.

ORP Grom was the lead ship of her class of destroyers serving in the Polish Navy during World War II. She was named after the Polish word for Thunderbolt, while her sister ship ORP Błyskawica translates to lightning

 

Waiting for the presidential debate feels like waiting for a train to crash. But how bad can it be?

What are your guesses at what will happen? I am curious to compare the answers to what actually happens tonight

 
 

Testsing and development of components and systems for commercial solar thermal power plants. The aim is to make solar thermal power plants more efficient. They also test processes for solar water splitting, the production of solar fuels and the use of solar heat in industrial processes.

More than 2,000 movable mirrors (heliostats) cover an area of around ten hectares in front of Jülich's two solar towers. They catch the sunlight, concentrate it and direct it onto the two solar towers.

In the solar tower power plant, a volumetric receiver at the top of the tower absorbs the concentrated sunlight and uses it to heat the surrounding air to up to 700 degrees Celsius. A steam generator inside the tower uses this to heat water into steam, which drives a turbine that produces electricity via a generator.

Look closer for the almost pixelated elevation lines on those hills

These are babies that we foster for the local animal wellfare. Their mother never really recovered from giving birth but the boys are doing great!

More than 200 very hungry animals were found at the home of the deceased owner. Mostly guinea pigs, rats and snakes. We took 3 females in, who were very close to giving birth. They each had 2 babies the day after we got them!

Support your local animal wellfare if you can! Even a small amount goes a long way!

 
 

If there is one thing that I keep noticing, when I look for cool places from above, it is golf courses! There are so many, and they are everywhere! This one is Murasaki Golf Club, with 27 holes, and 108 par.

The largest golf course I could find, is Mission Hill Resort in Shenzhen China. It has 12 courses, with 18 holes. 216 holes in total. Id does, IMO not look quite as good as the one from Murasaki

 

Found during a wet summer in scandinavian.

Mostly pine trees and beech forest
