Sound of the wind on another planet.

[Orcs]

Some people say I am on another planet, and my tablets give me lots of wind   

Would anyone like  a recording of my wind?

Would it surpass Blazing Saddles?

Would it surpass Blazing Saddles?  :-

If you were around at the right/wrong time, yes

And today I read where Voyager 2, launched in 1977, has officially left the heliosphere and is just a mere 11 billion miles from Earth! The next step is to enter the Oort Cloud, which it is expected to enter in 300 years and exit it in about 30,000 years. I'm not marking my calendar to see either of these last two events, but I'll let you know if I change my mind. Those of you who have smart phones, might like knowing that you have 200,000 times more power in it than either of the Voyagers!

Yes the timings are quite mind boggling.

Just over 2 years ago, it was NASA's InSight.  Now it's actual wind gusts recorded by Perseverance ...

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Thanks for that.

[Heedless Horseman]

Yep, really awesome. 

But, maybe, the 'background noise' was actually their 'unshielded' electric appliances... and 'they just didn't realise...!'   

[Techno II]

Could have sworn I heard, "You can't park that there mate....I'll have to give you a ticket if you don't move."

Cheers - Phil.

Have you never listened to Hawkwind?

This is still amazing.

[Techno II]

It really is, Graham. 

(Yes.....I have listened to Hawkiwind.....Used to have quite a few vinyl copies of their albums....Only bothered with a single CD.....Doremi-etc..Haven't listened to that for AGES.)

Cheers - Phil.
