Seismologists measure tremors from distances up to 5000 km away. On September 16, 2023, a massive wave struck a fjord on Greenland’s east coast, leaving evidence of flooding up to 200 meters (650 feet) high in some areas. Researchers, led by Angela Carrillo Ponce from the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), have analyzed seismic data from earthquake monitoring stations worldwide and uncovered another remarkable event. The megatsunami triggered a standing wave that oscillated back and forth in the narrow, uninhabited Dickson Fjord for over a week. The international team has published their findings in the journal The Seismic Records.

I can remember vividly watching the Democratic National Convention in July of 2004 and seeing Illinois state Sen. Barack Obama for the first time — well, I knew about him, but seeing him speak for the first time. The Democratic presidential nominee at the time pegged Obama to give the keynote. Many said, “Who?” But when he appeared and spoke, it was spellbinding.

After 20 years, and after tonight, Obama will no longer be the Democrats' top star
