#OTD: The 2016 Cimarron, Kansas train wreck occurs when an Amtrak express train (2 GE P42DCs) derails after midnight, injuring 28. The cause was the misaligned track, blaming the track for improperly securing the brakes, which led the truck to damage the railroad track.

On this day in 1794, Eli Whitney received a patent for his cotton gin. We usually learn about him as an example of American inventiveness & industry, which is true, but we aren't often taught the gin made the Southern cotton economy profitable--as long as there were slaves. #OTD.

A dynamic color photograph of American planetary astronomer Dr. Heidi B. Hammel (born March 14, 1960), captured mid-presentation in a dimly lit auditorium or conference setting. Hammel stands gesturing expressively with both hands as she speaks passionately, mouth slightly open in explanation. She has shoulder-length wavy brown hair with soft curls, warm brown eyes focused intently ahead (likely on the audience), and a composed yet enthusiastic expression conveying expertise and excitement. She wears a dark black cardigan over a light gray or pale blue top, a simple necklace with a pendant, small earrings, a watch on her right wrist, and a ring. A microphone clipped to her cardigan indicates a formal talk. Behind her, a massive projected image of Jupiter dominates the screen—showing the planet's iconic banded atmosphere in vibrant blues, whites, and subtle orange-browns, with swirling cloud patterns and the Great Red Spot faintly visible—creating a striking cosmic backdrop that highlights her expertise in outer planet studies (including Jupiter impacts, rings, and atmospheres via telescopes like Hubble and JWST). The overall scene captures her as a leading science communicator and researcher, known for leading Hubble observations of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9's 1994 impact on Jupiter, extensive work on Uranus and Neptune, and her ongoing role as an Interdisciplinary Scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope, symbolizing wonder and discovery in planetary science.

#OTD one year ago, I documented the PI day tornado outbreak of March 14, 2025. I documented a total of 9 tornadoes that night including a 119 mile long EF-4 tornado. Part of a major, widespread multi day outbreak that impacted the midwest and the southeast.

House finches are common in our neighborhood.  We know this one is a male because its head is bright red.  We can also get a glimpse of bright red feathers under the bird's wings.  (Female house finches have much more dour coloring - pale brown and white.)  This finch is perched at the top of a plant.  Behind the bird is a dappled green forest.
