I haven't ran into this myself personally but I will ping @alexander0042 to look into this.

Can you double check if you briefly passed through the interior of the ITER fusion reactor?

In all seriousness, this shouldn't have happened, and has the same root issue as the irregularities from last month. I almost have version 2.1 ready, which will switch to a much more stable back-end database, and should resolve these glitches

Can confirm that I have not passed though, in, near, or around any fusion reactors lately. 😎

2.1 sounds exciting - can't wait for that! Although I will miss my morning PA announcement saying "Today in Chicago, the high is one hundred seventy eight thousand, four hundred and twenty three degrees Farenheit." The wife and I had a good chuckle over that one.
