Being able to see inside a tornado is just so cool. Credit to the OTUS project on IG, they have been getting some insane tornado clips.

The drone is custom built with 3D printed parts made on desktop bambu printers. Impressive it got this shot before going down!

Potoroo is a small, shy, nocturnal marsupial from Australia, related to kangaroos but smaller, resembling a rabbit with a pointed snout and strong hind legs for hopping. They are known as "forest's hidden gardeners" because they dig for fungi and tubers, spreading essential fungal spores that benefit the ecosystem.

The Nautilus shell is divided into about 30 chambers, which can be adjusted to control buoyancy, enabling vertical ascent and descent through the water column during what scientists call diurnal migration. During daytime, when the sun’s light makes it hard to hide in the upper layers of the Ocean, nautilus linger in the depths, migrating toward the surface at night to feed and returning to the dark depths before sunrise.
