Thanks, Robin, for a nice bit of read.
:)
Still, I learned something new - the Novaya Zemlya (NZ) effect. Never ever heard of such a thing. The term caught my eye because these are two Russian words - the New Land if I may suggest a translation. Actually, I have another connotation to the Novaya Zemlya - the multi-megaton thermonuclear test conducted there. And the photo of the Sun just reminds (me) a shape of the blast.
Warm regards,
Tony
