The particle beam of a new-born star[^] is visible in this infrared image taken by the Hubble Telescope. These jets are believed to be formed when a new star is forming: not all of the material falling inwards makes it, and instead gets pushed outwards towards the poles of rotation, moving faster and faster and eventually shooting off as a highly accelerated, tightly spinning beam of plasma.
If you look towards the top of the image, you will see where the beam has punctured a molecular cloud, creating a wake.

A neighboring star was overheard saying "Is that a particle beam you have there or are you just glad to see me?".

OMG!

That's what they want you to think. Actually, the locals are test firing the primary weapon on their brand spankin' new Death Star.

Ski lift + 25ft snow = tow rope.

There are other ones where the rope is actually below the snow level!

Looks like an avalanche, without the avalanche! I imagine there will be some serious flooding in the spring.
|

That depends if it is a rapid thaw or a progressive thaw.

True, but still that's a massive amount of water.

I saw the title and thought, I'm at the age where that's true.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Well, at least you won't have to splash out on a lift pass!

Its all good.
I was there so long ago I expect any place I could recommend has changed but as a whole, its a great visit. If you can take a train to Czesky-Krumlov, (yeah, I just KLNOW that's spelt wrong) if possible, its even more stunning.
