    Just heard on the news that a major explosion shook the ground in a 5 km
    radius, but no ground damage has been found.
    Seismology department(!), gas and electricity companies, the military
    know nothing, and there was no thunderstorm.
    
    I am in a convalescence ward after coronary bypass operation on May 17
    (only 400 m from the Stockholm Saltsjöbaden Observatory, now only used
    by my astronomy club).
    I'll be home early next week, but may not carry more than 2*0.5 kg in my
    arms.
    I exceeded this by bringing my notebook, so I have been able to keep in
    touch.
    But it means that I can't setup the telescope for about two months
    (perfect timing, isn't it - it coincides with the too bright summer
    nights at 59+ N)
