Here's a visualization of global winds and precipitations on September 1st, 2019 (when [Hurricane Dorian](https://tinyurl.com/y3jewqqt) was hovering over the Bahamas, off the coast of Florida).

* Created in Python (using Matplotlib, NetCDF4, Scipy and Numpy modules)
* Public wind and precipitation data from the [NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis](https://tinyurl.com/y6mfqr6f)
* Wind particles colored according to speed (using Matplotlib "inferno" colormap)
* Rain particles scattered according to the precipitation rate

The seamless-loop effect was achieved by periodically spawning the particles at their initial location on a time range greater than the animation, and subsampling this time range before export. This effect was further enhanced by fading each particle's color to black at their birth and death, and using the "Additive" opacity in Sketchfab material settings to hide black points.

*PS: for Python enthusiasts, I've uploaded a [script to preview point cloud animations locally](https://tinyurl.com/yhyuuqev) !*

A Windy Day

Herod the Great's temple to Augustus near Pan's Cave in Banias, Israel. 


“When, later on, through Caesar’s bounty he received additional territory, Herod there too dedicated to him a temple of white marble near the sources of the Jordan, at a place called Paneion. At this spot a mountain rears its summit to an immense height aloft; at the base of the cliff is an opening into an overgrown cavern; within this, plunging down to an immeasurable depth, is a yawning chasm, enclosing a volume of still water, the bottom of which no sounding-line has been found long enough to reach. Outside and from beneath the cavern well up the springs from which, as some think, the Jordan takes its rise; but we will tell the true story of this in the sequel”

3D scan of a taxidermized Beluga or European Sturgeon (*Huso huso*). The primeval bony fish was common in the Black See and migrated upstream every year to lay eggs. In the Danube River it was observed up to 2,500 kilometers upstream from the estuary; its main spawning ground was in Hungary. The female’s roe is very valuable and is seen as a delicacy. That is why wild populations have been greatly reduced due to overfishing. 

This specimen can not be found in the exhibition of the NHM Vienna, but a  very similar specimen of the Beluga Sturgeon is Number 63 of the NHM Top 100 and can be found in Hall 25 of the NHM Vienna. 

**Specimen**: *Huso huso* (Linnaeus, 1758)

**Acquisition number**: NHMW-ZOO-FS-2012.IX.5 

**Collection**: Natural History Museum Vienna, 1st Zoological Dept., Fish Coll. (curator: Ernst Mikschi)

The SASR-17, or S-Advanced Service Rifle, is a modular pre-war assault rifle developed from a long-lost 2004 prototype design and later refined during the Sino-American War era by Thanoid Action LLC. The rifle features a distinctive silhouette often mistaken for the 10mm SMG, alongside a unique magazine eject lever system and forward-moving bolt assembly.
Built from a mix of metal and wood, the S-Advanced Service Rifle is prized for its reliability, adaptability, and extreme modularity—capable of conversion into marksman, LMG, and various specialized configurations.
Originally conceived by designer “S” and later revived by weapons engineer “N,” the design underwent 17 major revisions before reaching its final service form. Despite its wartime origins, the SASR-17 became widely adopted by both military forces and civilian markets, spawning numerous field-modified variants across the wasteland.
A weapon defined not just by its design—but by its evolution.

The Corpse Stalker has the same behavior as the Cave Dweller Evolved (Made by: SiverDX) but it has custom sounds, made by me and a custom model, made by me - however, the base model of the model is heavily inspired by the model from the Enhanced Cave Noise.jar (Made by: Schpalrbo) It also has an EXTREMELY RARE chance of spawning above ground, but you have to activate it first (set it to true). The original Cave Dweller mod is of course made by: Gargin. Shout out to these people, as this wouldn't have been possible without them, well, it probably would but it would have been difficult. This original mod was an incredible concept that came to life thanks to Gargin. Go check out this guy's YouTube channel, he deserves it.

A near threatened species: http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/133407/0

Many species of the family Pocilloporida are brooders, meaning they reproduce by internal fertilization (as opposed to broadcast spawning, whereby coral colonies release gametes, i.e. eggs and sperm, into the water for external fertilization). Brooded larvae are competent to settle upon release, so brooding species are more capable of local retention on a reef.
