A number of relatively unusual events took place here this past week. First, the NYC Emergency Management team published a new PSA advising New Yorkers what to do if a nuclear bomb explodes nearby. Then NASA released the very first images from the James Webb Space Telescope revealing never before seen views of the Cosmos taken more than 7,000 light-years from Earth. And finally, Manhattanhenge was observed by thousands of City dwelling Sun worshipers throughout Midtown. Taken together, it felt like something was up.
