    [YOUTUBE NOTES.] A look at how Ireland, once a
    beacon of booming development and social prosperity,
    has been plunged into economic desperation.
Art will be the last bastion when all else fades away.

    I was fooling around with helioviewer.org, watching the flare in different wavelengths of light detected by NASA’s Solar Dynamics observatory, when I switched to 17.1 nanometers — in the far ultraviolet.

but in reality I don't think the solar systems invariant plane (roughly the plane of Jupiter's orbit) is perpendicular to the motion of the sun around the galaxy, or is it?
