   This was far from my best year of running in the past decade, but despite this dumpster fire of a year I managed to run a total of 638.72 miles (1027.92km) in the past 365 days. I want to crush this in 2021.

   "Muon Weather and Seasons" Over the winter break, I have picked up my little muon detector data side project that started in the spring term of 2020. A few days ago, I remarked on how I wanted to take account of weather in the data â** variations around a daily expectation given seasonal conditions â** and seasons â** long-term â*¦ Continue reading "Muon Weather and …

    "Good run" Itâ**s December 29, itâ**s about 60F outside, and I had a fantastic 7-mile run today. Itâ**s been rough-going for outdoor exercise lately, with the weather conditions swinging between the 30s and the 60s, but todayâ**s running conditions were just perfect. My mile times are terrible, owing to fact that despite regular exercise Iâ**ve been adding â*¦ Cont…

JAXA's Kaguya spacecraft orbited the Moon from 2007 to 2009 at an altitude of ~100 km. Luckily for us it had an HD camera!
