Solar storm confirms Vikings settled in North America exactly 1,002 years ago (as of 2023)
Tumblr media
The Icelandic sagas – oral histories written down hundreds of years later – tell of a leader named Leif Erikson and a settlement called “Vinland”, assumed to be coastal North America. But while it is known that the Norse landed in Canada, exactly when they set up camp to become the first Europeans to cross the Atlantic, marking the moment when the globe was first known to have been encircled by humans, has remained imprecise.
This study, published in the journal Nature, made use of the cosmic-ray induced upsurge in atmospheric radiocarbon concentrations during a known solar storm in AD993, which released an enormous pulse of radiation that was absorbed by trees at the time.
The logs, with bark still attached, were from trees alive during that solar storm, and excavated from the site. Such solar storms are reflected in annual tree growth rings. In all three samples, 28 growth rings were formed after the one that bore evidence of the storm, meaning the trees were cut in AD1021.

I’m so in love with Vinland Saga
so, manipulative character in his 40s with grey moral and some mental health issues? I can fix him. Askeladd’s my man.

Season 2 of Vinland Saga has been everything I could have wished for. I’ve written before about my thoughts of season 1, and everything still stands but more so. Every frame of the show has been so beautiful and cinematic in a way that anime just doesn't get the chance to be now days. I really get the sense that each episode’s directors are really enjoying the opportunity to be artistic and cinematic. It's hard to put into words all the ways the show has touched me, so I tried to convey it in this painting
