@jillinewell: Why did the 1994 northridge earthquake get so many 911 calls about a cloud?

Itt :

I’ve still never seen the Milky Way

Liam Burke :

6.7 you say

No kings :

I lived through that earthquake. Really scary. But then I saw a dumb cop drive his car into a broken freeway. Live! My power came back on. Never saw the Milky Way tho. I saw it Fresno once

honovandawkins :

guyvv94 :

I don’t believe this because space doesn’t exist. It’s waters above us.

Robert A. Henkel 🗝️ :

That’s a great story! As a lifelong night sky gazer, I’ve seen the Milky Way countless times, but nothing prepared me for the way it looked when viewed on a crystal clear night in the Sonora Desert of southern Arizona, many, many miles from any town. It was indescribably awesome; I’ll never forget it.

Jacob Carter :
