Ru Temple 🌈: The river where folks put boats in is nw of the C in Clear Lake St Park label, a lil beach is around by the k. Our campsite was full of ripening blackberry bushes, we had great pancakes & oats that week! The lake fills up with water plants.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

This is gorgeous. If you wanted to spend the time (not asking you to) I would totally read a blog/post about what each image is and inspect the full image, that is how awesome this is

Green: Algal blooms on California's Clear Lake Taken 05/15/2024 by Landsat 9's Operational Land Imager-2 (OLI-2) in natural color earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/15286...

Clear Lake Clouded by Algaeearthobservatory.nasa.gov The nutrient-loaded Northern California lake turned green with algal growth in spring 2024.

I've been there! We spent a week in the state park with our canoe (motorboat folks slept in til mid-day). The mountain S of center is volcanic obsidian; the water gets bathtub warm in summer to grow all those greens the fish love, with lots of grebes, a colony of white pelicans, osprey & eagles.

Wow! Was the algae difficult to canoe through?
