Skhodnya (river)
Skhodnya River (Russian: Сходня, IPA: [ˈsxodʲnʲə]), also known as Sukhodnya, Vkhodnya, Vykhodnya and Vskhodnya is a river in the northwest of Moscow, the second largest tributary (after the Yauza) of the Moskva in Moscow. It is 47 kilometres (29 mi) long (of which 5 km in Moscow proper), and has a drainage basin of 255 square kilometres (98 sq mi).[1] The Skhodnya originates near the village of Alabushevo (part of Zelenograd) and flows into the Moskva River near the Tushino Airfield. The Skhodnya is connected with a derivational canal, which supplies water from the Volga through the Khimki Reservoir (with the help of the Skhodnenskaya hydroelectric plant) to Moscow for sanitary irrigation.

gollark: My code prints an intractably large number of bees and is thus superior.
gollark: ```pythonf=lambda x,y=9:f(x**x,~-y)if y else 9;print("BEES"*f(a:=f(9),a))```You should fear this.
gollark: The limit is 50 now, apparently.
