I'll Just Put This Video Here

For those who like parody songs with the same music but parody lyrics. Also for those who are into solar conditions, solar terrestial indices, radio propagation and all. 

In other words, there's around a dozen people who will like this. 

Officially "My Corona" by COSMOrama of the High Altitude Observatory (HAO) of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). On YouTube for one year and I learned about because a friend sent a link by email. 

Enjoy!

  5. I suppose it wouldn't surprise anyone for me to add that we live in a small city with a college auditorium big enough for touring bands and musicians, and one of the few times we've been there was for Weird Al.

  6. The video was created with tax dollars.

    1. I would say that's a good assumption considering it has the NCAR stuff at the end, but I don't know that in the sense that I've seen the receipts or someone made something like the shrimp on a treadmill video from a few years ago. I can envision NCAR having some sort education or outreach budget that they did that under.

  7. My approval. My tax dollars are wasted in many worse ways...

    1. Good point, Annie.

      I bet whatever that video cost, one small DOD fix - or NASA fix - would be so much bigger that the video's stack of coins would be hard to find. The list of agencies that applies to is staggering. Like 100%.

      Pareto's law: fix the 20% of problems that cause 80% of the waste. Once they're solved, "rinse and repeat."
