Why OSU scientists made a national map of Earth's electrical properties
High voltage post or High voltage tower(bohbeh - stock.adobe.com / 182646517)
A power plant makes electricity, and wires carry the power to users. Simple, right? Actually, many things can complicate power transmission, including storms on the surface of the sun, as well as issues with geomagnetic currents under the surface of the Earth.
Oregon State University is home to the National Geoelectromagnetic Facility (today.oregonstate.edu/news/osu-researchers-complete-electrical-mapping-project-critical-protecting-us-power-grid) , which recently completed a project to map those currents in the ground, across the Lower 48 states. The knowledge can help protect electrical grids from disturbances.
OSU Professor and the project's principal investigator, Adam Schultz, walks us through the details of the map and who benefits from it.

Nice to hear Molly in conversation. I haven't met her yet but I rehearsed in her front room while in a band with her dad. Her early memories at festivals likely include my Wolf Mountain festival in Grass Valley so we'll have lots to talk about someday.

We should collab
The is the first I’ve heard “Forget About Georgia” played solo- the singing and guitar work is effing heartfelt and stunning. A whole new respect for Lukas and a song that impressed me from the git go. And then to close with “King of the Road”! He’s the ‘real’ deal alright - pedigree notwithstanding. ‘Nuff respect to JPR for all that you do (and for keeping it real)! 🫶
Molly = Solid Gold
