At its core, the Gilligan’s Island model relies on the lagoon as its main source of conflict – something floats in, the castaways have to deal with it.

In this sheriff’s office, like several other law enforcement agencies, ranks jump from junior officers (lieutenant, captain) straight to flag rank (1 star for chief deputy, 2 stars for assistant sheriff, 3 stars for under sheriff, 4 stars for sheriff).

This also may be my lack of understanding, but I was referring to the Multi Spectral Scanner (MSS) on Landsat 1 which used band scanning and stored/transmitted digital images. https://gisrsstudy.com/multispectral-scanner-sensor/
It’s worth noting this is the first commercially available digital camera. The digital camera aboard Landsat 1 (launched 1972) was developed in 1969, predating this by 6 years.

Is it stolen honor to pretend to be a marine by eating crayons?
The Logan’s Jog Amendment.
Residents visited the site on Saturday night to see the cylinder, the ABC reported, with one local describing it as a “great social evening”. “It was a lovely, still night, the kids were digging sand castles around it,” he told the ABC.
I sure hope there’s no hypergolics left in that tank.
