Just now, from my back porch:
I have my window open so heard the tell-tale blast sound. So fun seeing these things. What a cool hobby!

More fun than the B2 bomber that flew over my home at about 1500 ft a few years ago. The batwing one.

We see the B2s pretty regularly, being in Missouri not too far from their home base at Whiteman. They sometimes do low-level flyovers of MU football games, no doubt at great taxpayer expense. My (outdoor) wedding was on a football Saturday, and our guests were treated to one of these, fortunately not during the actual ceremony.

The one that buzzed my home was at Andrews AFB for an air show. What’s odd is it was routed into a civilian air corridor. I was outside and you can imagine how surprised I was. I only wish that I had a camera nearby.

Coincidentally to this mini-discussion, last night after dark I was watching TV and heard a very loud roar that lasted quite a while. I thought at first it was a noisy truck or street sweeper. The noise continued for long enough that I was able to first think, “WTF?”, then ignore it for a minute, then finally think, “WTAF?” and go outside to look. (This is the standard midwestern response to tornado warnings, BTW. We don’t take shelter; instead we go outside to gawk like idiots.) It was a B2 that circled our city and headed NW towards Whiteman AFB. When they are not trying to be stealthy, those things are quite obvious.

To celebrate the launch of the Social and Human Science Sector’s new sport-based flagship, Fit for Life, UNESCO is organizing a photo contest to promote equality, empowerment and inclusion through sport.
Fit for Life will unite private and public sector stakeholders through sport to tackle contemporary crises in physical inactivity, mental health issues and inequalities.
Sport has the power to convince, convene and activate. It is a tool to build physical, mental, and societal resilience, deliver values education and promote intercultural dialogue. In a time of compounded inequalities and rising racism, where communities have been devastated by the impacts of COVID-19, sport offers a productive pathway to “rebuild” our societies based on inclusion, human connections and collective wellbeing.
The Fit for Life photo contest is an opportunity for young people around the world to submit entries which illustrate the power and potential of sport as a driver of equality, empowerment, and inclusion.
Who can participate?
Anyone aged from 18 to 35 years old. Participants do not need to be professional photographers, just passionate about sport and the positive role it has played in your life or the lives of others in your community.
Deadline?
30 November 2021, 00:00 CET

It looks like a dragon to me. The head right in the center of the sky.
