April 6 - Why JetBlue buying Spirit Airlines is bad for JetBlue
Wall Street isn't feeling JetBlue's (JBLU) surprise bid for low-cost fare rival Spirit Airlines (SAVE). JetBlue offered to buy Spirit for $3.6 billion late on Tuesday, or $33 a share. JetBlue shares tanked 6% in Wednesday's session as investors fretted about a costly buyout battle. If Frontier and Spirit combine, the airline would be the fifth largest in the United States and gain a stronger hold out West. It would mark the biggest major airlines deal since Alaska Airlines combined with Virgin America in 2016. "We admit, we did not see this coming."

Apr 16, 2022 video - The Gateway to Hell May Soon Be Closed
The Darvaza Natural Gas Crater has been smoldering for the past 50 years in Turkmenistan. The crater was formed in the early 70s, when a natural gas pocket collapsed into a cavern.
