WHat the fuck is that? (Image from yesterday)

From NPR: A Huge New Crater Is Found In Siberia

'The area of Russia is said to be called, ominously enough, the end of the world. And that's where researchers are headed this week, to investigate a large crater whose appearance reportedly caught scientists by surprise. The crater is estimated at 262 feet wide and is in the northern Siberian area of Yamal.'

The Daily Mail

'An urgent expedition will leaves tomorrow to probe a giant crater that has appeared in gas-rich northern Siberia.
Extraordinary aerial images show a mysterious hole which experts say may be up to 262 feet wide, in the Yamal Peninsula of northern Russia.
'A scientific team has been sent to investigate the hole and is due to arrive at the scene on Wednesday,''


A Hole?

A Giant-Ass Hole?

that Chernobyl is translated as "wormwood"?

Because I think they totally made that up, after the fact.

In any case, the gas was bored and decided to blow itself up.

Next time, give it basic income and reliable discussion sites to alleviate its frustration with the bleak geophysical reality that it must by nature endure.

The estimate was obviously 80 meters. Round the retarded US version off to 250 feet at least instead of making everyone think it's been tape measured at 262 feet, not 261 or 263.

I can haz blog!
