The real question is how to make it profitable. Turn the captured carbon into building materials somehow?

As it stands, who pays for it? Can’t rely on government subsidies, and can’t rely on business doing it unless they’re compelled.

I wish it would work but I just don’t see how it fits in the current system at any meaningful scale.

Update: Worth it, thanks for the tips everyone!

Took a drive out to a little town near Newmarket (Ousden) that seemed to be recommended as a stargazing spot. Top of a hill, hardly a cloud in the sky, sliver of a moon, and not even too cold. What a perfect night!

Even on an iPhone 13 mini without a tripod or any skill in photography we managed to get a couple of amazing snaps.

Finished up with some motorway services doughnuts on the way home in the wee hours.

Overall:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - would do it again.

Exciting stuff! Just an hour or two until it’s dark. Fingers crossed!

Reckon it’s worth taking a drive out of London to spot the aurora?

Terrible in the East End of London. The things I’d do to be able to just take a walking meeting without the call dropping out every 5 minutes!

Water may be wet. But let’s wait until January to be sure.

Spacious room with a single toilet and a floor to ceiling solid wood door: 🚨ILLEGAL🚨. But add a sink and anyone can poop to their heart’s content.

It seems the issue here is actually mixed gender handwashing, which is the real scourge.

To be fair, with the number of parts falling off those planes it was a statistical certainty that something was going to wash up at his house!

Right. So just strap a Saturn V to my space suction cup and I’m golden?

But how do you pin the turmoil on the other team if you do it before the election?
