There Might Be Cracks in the Universe — But We Can't See Them from Earth
There Might Be Cracks in the Universe — But We Can't See Them from Earth
There might be cracks in space-time, but humanity's telescopes can't see them.
The cracks, if they exist, are old — remnants of a time shortly after the Big Bangwhen the universe had just shifted from a hotter, more alien state to the cooler, more familiar one we see today. That great cool-down, what physicists call a "phase transition," started earlier in some places than others, the theory goes. Bubbles of cooler universe formed and spread, blooming across space until they met other bubbles. Eventually, all of space transitioned, and the old universe disappeared.
But that old, high-energy state might have lived on at the borders between the bubbles, cracks in the fabric of space-time where those cooling regions met and didn't perfectly fit together. Some physicists thought we might still see evidence of those cracks or defects — known as "cosmic strings" — in the cosmic microwave background (CMB), the heat left over from the universe's violent emergence. But according to a new paper, that evidence would simply be too faint for any telescope to ever pick out against the noise.
Cosmic strings are difficult objects to imagine, said Oscar Hernández, a physicist at McGill University in Montreal and co-author of the paper. But they have analogs in our world.
"Have you walked on a frozen lake? Have you noticed cracks laced through the frozen lake ice? It's still quite solid. There's nothing to be afraid of, but there's cracks," Hernández told Live Science
Those cracks form through a similar phase-transition process as cosmic strings.
"Ice is water that has gone through a phase transition," he said. "Molecules of water were free to move as a fluid, and then all of a sudden, somewhere, they start to form into a crystal. … It starts to tile itself in tiles, which are [often] hexagons. Now, imagine having tiles that are perfect hexagons and tiling [the lake] with that. If somebody at the other end of the lake starts to tile [it] again," there's essentially zero chance that your tiles will line up.
Imperfect meeting places on a frozen lake surface form long cracks. In the fabric where space and time intersect, they form cosmic strings — if the underlying physics is correct.
In space, researchers believe, there are fields that determine the behavior of fundamental forces and particles. The first phase transitions of the universe brought these fields into being.
"There could be a field relating to some particle that has to, in some sense, 'pick a direction to freeze and cool in.' And since the universe is really big, it could pick different directions in different parts of the universe," he said. "Now, if this field obeys certain conditions … then when the universe has cooled down there will be lines of discontinuity, there will be lines of energy that cannot cool down."
Today, those meeting points would appear as infinitesimally thin lines of energy through space.
Finding those cosmic strings would be a big deal because they would be another piece of evidence that physics is bigger and more complicated than the current model allows, Hernández said.
Right now, the most advanced theory of particle physics that researchers feel has been conclusively proven is known as the Standard Model. It includes the quarks and electrons that make up atoms, as well as more exotic particles like the Higgs boson and neutrinos.
However, most physicists believe the Standard Model is incomplete. As Live Science has reported previously, there are all sorts of ideas on how to expand on it, from supersymmetric particles (i.e., the "stau slepton") to superstring theory — the idea that all particles and forces can be explained as vibrations of tiny, multidimensional "strings." (Note: The "strings" of superstring theory are not the same sort of thing as cosmic "strings." There are only so many metaphors available and sometimes physicists in different fields reuse one.)
"Many extensions of the Standard Model that people really like — like a lot of superstring theories and others — naturally lead to cosmic strings after [post-Big Bang] inflation takes place," Hernández said. "So what we have is an object that is predicted by very many models, so if they don't exist then all these models are ruled out. And if they do exist, oh my god, people are happy."
Since 2017, there's been a flurry of interest in trying to spot strings in the CMB, Hernández and his co-author wrote in their paper, published Nov. 18 to the arXiv database and not yet peer-reviewed.
Hernández, together with Razvan Ciuca of Marianopolis College in Westmount, Quebec, had argued in the past that a convolutional neural network — a powerful type of pattern-finding software — would be the best tool for spotting evidence of the strings in CMB.
Assuming a perfect, noise-free map of the CMB, they wrote in a separate 2017 paper, a computer running that sort of neural network should be able to find cosmic strings even if their energy levels (or "tension") are remarkably low.
But revisiting the subject in this new 2019 paper, they showed that in reality, it's almost certainly impossible to provide clean enough CMB data for the neural network to detect these potential strings. Other, brighter microwave sources obscure the CMB and are difficult to fully disentangle. Even the best microwave instruments are imperfect, with limited resolution and random fluctuations in their recording accuracy from one pixel to the next. All those factors and more, they found, add up to a level of information loss that no current or planned method of recording and analyzing the CMB will ever be able to overcome, they wrote. This method of hunting cosmic strings is a dead end.
That doesn't mean all is lost, though, they wrote.
A new method for hunting cosmic strings is based on measurements of the expansion of the universe in all directions across ancient parts of the universe. This method — called 21 centimeter intensity mapping — doesn't rely on studying the movements of individual galaxies or on precise images of the CMB, Hernández said. Instead, it's based on measurements of the speed at which hydrogen atoms are moving away from Earth, on average, in all parts of deep space.
The best observatories for 21-cm mapping (so named because hydrogen emits electromagnetic energy with a telltale 21-cm wavelength) aren't yet online. But when they arrive, the authors wrote, there's hope for clearer evidence of cosmic strings in their data. And then, Hernández said, the hunt can begin anew.
Astronomers Discover Exoplanets with Cotton Candy Density in Kepler 51 Star System
Astronomers Discover Exoplanets with Cotton Candy Density in Kepler 51 Star System
Using data from the Hubble Space Telescope, researchers found three planets in the Kepler 51 star system that are almost as big as Jupiter, but have extremely low density – almost like cotton candy.
The density was found to be less than 100 times the gas giant’s mass or less than 0.1 grams per cubic centimetre of volume, the scientists said in a statement.
“They’re very bizarre,” said the study’s lead author, Jessica Libby-Roberts, in a statement. Fewer than 15 exoplanets of this type have been recorded in the galaxy so far.
“This is an extreme example of what’s so cool about exoplanets in general,” said Zachory Berta-Thompson, one of the study’s co-authors. “They give us an opportunity to study worlds that are very different than ours, but they also place the planets in our own solar system into a larger context.”
The three “super-puff” exoplanets in the Kepler 51 system were “straight-up contrary to what we teach in undergraduate classrooms,” Berta-Thompson added.
The Kepler 51 system is approximately 2,400 light-years from Earth and is approximately 500 million years old. A light-year, which measures distance in space, equals about 9,46 trillion kilometres.
The researchers also attempted to look at the planets’ atmospheres, but ran into issues, as the atmospheres were opaque rather than transparent.
“It definitely sent us scrambling to come up with what could be going on here,” Libby-Roberts continued. “We expected to find water, but we couldn’t observe the signatures of any molecule.”
The team theorized that the exoplanets are mostly comprised of hydrogen and helium, using computer simulations. It’s also probable that it is covered by a “thick haze made up of methane,” which makes them reminiscent of Saturn’s moon, Titan. In June, NASA unveiled a mission that will explore Titan, which could potentially host extraterrestrial life.
The researchers at the Department of Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences (APS) at the University of Colorado also discovered that the exoplanets are losing gas rapidly, with the innermost of the three exoplanets putting an estimated “tens of billions of tons of material into space every second.” Such losses could lead to a considerable shrinking of the planets over the next billion years and they might wind up looking similar to “mini-Neptune” exoplanets.
“People have been really struggling to find out why this system looks so different than every other system,” Libby-Roberts said. “We’re trying to show that, actually, it does look like some of these other systems.”
“A good bit of their weirdness is coming from the fact that we’re seeing them at a time in their development where we’ve rarely gotten the chance to observe planets,” Berta-Thompson explained.
POPULAIRE UFO-ONDERZOEKER GEARRESTEERD EN GEMARTELD ( VIDEO )
POPULAIRE UFO-ONDERZOEKER GEARRESTEERD EN GEMARTELD ( VIDEO )
Als de eigenaar van een bekend Youtubekanaal met een miljoen abonnees plotseling niets meer plaatst, dan is dat hoogst verdacht.
Zonder één enkele mededeling verdween Tyler Glockner van Secureteam en niemand wist wat er was gebeurd, tot nu.
Door de jaren hebben ook wij talloze video’s geplaatst van de jonge ufo onderzoeker Tyler Glockner die bekend is geworden met de naam van zijn Youtubekanaal, Secureteam.
Dagelijks verschenen daar nieuwe video’s over vreemde en interessante zaken op het gebied van onbekende vliegende voorwerpen en Tyler dook steeds dieper in de materie. Echter, als je nu kijkt op zijn kanaal dan zie je dat de laatste video enkele maanden geleden is geplaatst en daarna wordt het opeens stil.
En dan krijgen we maandag het volgende bericht van Paul Harmans:
Heb jij de video van Tyler van Secureteam van een paar dagen geleden gezien? De video was na een dag weer verwijderd, ik vermoed door Tyler zelf.
Als je hem niet hebt gezien: Tyler vertelde dat hij al een tijd wordt lastiggevallen en gesommeerd te stoppen met zijn activiteiten. Dat weigerde hij en sinds die tijd is het serieuzer geworden. Hij vertelde dat hij vlak voordat hij de video maakte thuiskwam van een week gevangenisstraf, opgepakt omdat 'iemand' de politie had gebeld met de melding dat hij zijn vrouw had geslagen. Toen de politie bij hem aanbelde wist Tyler van niets en ook zijn vrouw verklaarde dat het niet waar was, ze was niet geslagen. Maar de Amerikaanse politie is resoluut in dat soort zaken en dus arresteerden ze Tyler en voerden hem in handboeien af.
Hij verdween voor een week de cel in en hij vertelde dat hij gedurende die week regelmatig door bewakers in elkaar werd gemept met de boodschap te stoppen met zijn openbaringen. Tyler vertelde in de video dat hij niet stopt en doorgaat. Hij heeft advocaten in de arm genomen en zal inmiddels wel blut zijn. Als ze willen dat hij stopt vinden ze honderden manieren om dat door te zetten en zullen hem net zo lang voor de rechter slepen totdat hij grote schulden heeft.
Ik wilde de video nog downloaden, maar was te laat. Wellicht dat Tyler de video alleen voor een dag op Youtube heeft gezet om zijn volgers even te laten weten wat er speelt.
Tot zover Paul Harmans.
Dit is natuurlijk een heftig verhaal en toont voor de zoveelste keer aan dat het brengen van de waarheid een gevaarlijke bezigheid is. En als je kijkt op het Youtubekanaal van Tyler, dan is de video waar Paul het over heeft inderdaad verdwenen.
Gelukkig zijn wij niet voor één gat te vangen en hebben de bewuste video van Tyler weten op te duikelen.
Wat hem niet duidelijk is gemaakt door zijn belagers is wat nu precies hetgeen is dat dit alles heeft getriggerd. Echter, aangezien hij al eerder waarschuwingen en dreigementen heeft ontvangen is het waarschijnlijk dat het gaat om het totaal van zijn berichten.
Het interview met Bob Lazar, de man die aan buitenaardse ruimteschepen heeft gewerkt, ook mede aanleiding zijn. In een artikel dat wij eind vorig jaar hierover schreven komt zo ongeveer alles aan bod waardoor de befaamde Men in Black op je stoep zou kunnen verwachten en daarom hier nogmaals het grootste deel van dat artikel met aan het einde ervan het bewuste interview met Bob Lazar.
Voor de "normale" wereld bestaat buitenaards leven dan ook nog steeds niet, maar voor de machthebbers achter de schermen is het een ander verhaal. Zij beschikken niet alleen over contacten met buitenaardsen, maar ook over hun techniek. Deze vorm van de buitenaardsen overgenomen techniek heet "reverse engineering" en vormt de basis voor wat wij noemen de geheime ruimtevloot van de Bilderbergers.
Het bestaan van een dergelijke vloot is ook aangetoond door hacker Gary McKinnon die wist in te breken in systemen van de Amerikaanse overheid en daar lijsten met namen aantrof van buitenaardse officieren.
Al met al betekent dit dat het voor ons gewone mensen heel verwarrend is, omdat we nooit met zekerheid weten of waargenomen UFO's nu echt buitenaards zijn of onderdeel vormen van de geheime ruimtevloot. Beiden bestaan en dat maakt het zo moeilijk om ze precies te identificeren.
Om het nog een beetje gecompliceerder te maken weten we van de voormalig Nazi en later Amerikaanse raketwetenschapper Wernher von Braun, dat de machthebbers achter de schermen op een gegeven moment een nep buitenaardse invasie zullen uitvoeren, om er zo voor te zorgen dat de mensheid zich unaniem wil verenigen in een wereldverbond/-regering om zo de dreigingen van buiten de aarde het hoofd te kunnen bieden.
Voorzetten voor dit spektakel dat nog moet plaatsvinden werden destijds al gemaakt door de voormalige Amerikaanse president Ronald Reagan.
De man die alles weet over buitenaards contact en reverse engineering is Bob Lazar. In een eerder artikelschreven wij het volgende over hem.
Lazar heeft persoonlijk gewerkt aan een ruimteschip in een gebied dat heet S4 wat ligt in Area 51. Bob Lazar maakte onderdeel uit van het zogenaamde“reverse engineering” team. Die bouwden een ruimteschip gebaseerd op de kennis van daar aanwezige buitenaardse ruimtevaartuigen.
Eind jaren tachtig werkte Lazar in Area 51 als jong nucleair natuurkundige aan een vliegende schotel met een diameter van 9 tot 12 meter. Het had een bedieningspaneel en de stoelen waren klein, bijna alsof ze voor kinderen waren gemaakt. Er werd hem verteld dat de buitenaardsen afkomstig waren van de vierde planeet van het binaire zonnenstelsel, Zeta Reticuli 2.
Nadat Bob Lazar naarbuiten kwam met zijn informatie via een televisiestation in Las Vegas in 1989, werden onmiddellijk alle sporen die zijn verhaal konden bevestigen, gewist. Zo waren plots al zijn bestanden verdwenen bij bedrijven waar hij eerder had gewerkt, zodat niet meer gecontroleerd kon worden of zijn verhaal klopte.
Zo zegt Lazar ondermeer dat hij begin jaren tachtig heeft gewerkt voor de Los Alamos Nationial Laboratories, maar ook daar was via de officiële route niets te vinden. Echter, zijn naam komt wel voor in een oud intern telefoonboek van wetenschappers die destijds in Los Alamos werkten. Ook in een oude kopie van een tijdschrift, The Los Alamos Monitor, komt Lazar voor met een foto naast een zogenaamde “jet car”. Er zijn bovendien oud personeelsleden die zich Bob Lazar herinneren.
Het is ongeveer dertig jaar stil geweest rondom Bob Lazar, maar er zijn nu nieuwe ontwikkelingen te melden. Er is een film/documentaire in de maak over Bob Lazar die begin december in Los Angeles in première zal gaan.
Het beloofd een film te worden waarin nog veel meer dingen naar buiten gebracht zullen worden door hem. Iemand die al vele jaren een fan is van deze man is Tyler van Secure Team en in onderstaande video kan je niet alleen de trailer van de film zien, maar kondigt Tyler ook aan dat hij niet alleen is uitgenodigd voor de premiere van de film, maar dat hij binnenkort ook een exclusief interview heeft met Bob Lazar.
En tenslotte hier het eerder door ons geplaatste interview met Bob Lazar en wij hopen uiteraard dat Tyler niet verder in de problemen gaat komen, maar vooralsnog ziet het er niet al te goed uit.
Many Witnessed Alien Craft Encounter In The Yukon Territory
Many Witnessed Alien Craft Encounter In The Yukon Territory
1996…….YUKON TERRITORY CANADA
Investigated by Martin Jasek, M.Sc., P. Eng.
The following is as brief a summary that could be made from a complex 22-witness event and still retain a good portion of the impact and scope of what had occurred. More detailed descriptions and vivid quotes from the witnesses can be found in the individual witness testimonies.
Event Summary
Witnesses FOX2 and FOX3 were driving together from Whitehorse to Carmacks in two separate vehicles. As they were travelling northbound on the Klondike Highway adjacent to Fox Lake, they spotted a huge UFO out over the frozen lake.
Fox Lake is on the west side of the highway. Both of them slammed on the brakes stopping about 570 metres (1870 ft) apart from each other. FOX2 got out of his vehicle for a better observation.
The UFO proceeded to slowly drift towards FOX2 and after a few minutes he found himself almost directly underneath the object! FOX3 continued to observe his cousin FOX2; both men were in complete awe!.
The UFO continued to move slowly across the highway and out over the hill to the east and eventually disappeared behind it. Immediately after the sigthing, FOX3 noted that the time was 8:30 pm. Both FOX2 and FOX3 could discern that the lights were attached to a smooth and solid object.
At the very same time that FOX2 and FOX3 were observing the UFO move across the lake, FOX4 and FOX5 were approaching the southern tip of Fox Lake also heading northbound.
What they observed was a huge row, or rows, of lights slowly moving across the lake. There were other lights on and around the UFO as well. Their first thought was that it was a large truck in the distance, but it couldn’t be, it was out over the lake. Their next thought was that a Boeing 747 was crash landing. But that couldn’t be either, it was moving much too slowly to be an aircraft.
It took them about 2 seconds to process these thoughts when they realized that it must be a UFO! They got very concerned. They had a two-year-old son in the back seat and they were travelling towards this thing! After some debate they decided to continue their journey.
After all, they could no longer see the UFO as they approached a hill that obscured their view plus there was some traffic ahead of them. FOX5 looked at the car clock, it was 8:23 pm. None of the witnesses heard any sound coming from the object.
A few minutes later, when FOX4 and FOX5 were passing the Fox Lake campground, they passed by two vehicles that were pulled over with two men outside looking up at the sky. They turned around and pulled over to talk to them.
It was FOX2 and FOX3 carrying on a lively discussion, “What the ‘heck’ was that?”
After a few minutes FOX4 and FOX5 left and eventually stopped at Braeburn Lodge about 34 km (21 miles) further up the highway. FOX4 walked into the lodge and said to Steve Watson, the lodge owner “Steve, I really need a coffee!” Steve replied “Oh, you must have seen what FOX1 saw?” In fact FOX4 recalled seeing FOX1 leaving Braeburn Lodge just as they got there.
About half an hour before the sighting described above (about 8:00 pm) FOX1 was driving along Fox Lake and had noticed a light in the distance which should not have been there. He did not think too much of it but as he got closer to the light, he could tell that it was illuminating a long smooth curved surface.
He then passed some traffic and after his eyes readjusted to the darkness, the curved surface and the light were gone. However, his eye caught a group of rectangular lights moving over and behind a hill to the east.
At this point he got an “exhilarating feeling” and sped up in order to reach a less obscured location in the valley so that he would have a chance to see the UFO again.
He pulled over and got out of his vehicle but didn’t see anything more unusual. He continued his journey and pulled into Braeburn Lodge where he gave Steve a description of what he saw and also made drawings for him. FOX2 and FOX3 eventually pulled into Braeburn Lodge and gave their description to Steve as well.
There was also a 6th witness to the Fox Lake sighting but it is unclear what time she had driven through the area. FOX6 was driving in the vicinity of Fox Lake when she noticed a glow on her dashboard that could not be accounted for by the interior illumination of her vehicle.
She leaned forward to look up through her windshield and observed a large arrangement of multi colored lights.
The interior lights in her car started to go dim and the music from her tape deck slowed down.
At around the same time, between 8:30 and 9:00 pm, the Village of Pelly Crossing (about a 2 hours drive to the north of Fox Lake) was experiencing its own truly incredible UFO sighting. PEL1 was tending his trapline northeast of Pelly when he observed in the distance to the southwest a long row of lights slowly moving over the hills. At first he thought it was a large aircraft coming down. But it was moving much too slowly.
“It’s a UFO!”
As he was walking his flashlight happened to point in the direction of the UFO. As if reacting to his flashlight, the UFO started speeding rapidly toward him.
He instinctively cupped the end of his flashlight. As soon as he completed this gesture, the UFO stopped in its track.
In a matter of less than a second, it was hovering an estimated 300 yards (275 metres) in front of him! PEL1 had to turn his head from one side to the other to take it all in.
Again there was no sound at all coming from the object.
A beam of light emanating from the bottom of the UFO swooped the ground once directly underneath the object. Was it a search beam? Looking for him? The UFO then drifted slowly to the right. There were other beams emanating from the craft as well; a greenish phosphorescent color beam shone horizontally out the front (right); two beams at the back (left) rotated slowly to a horizontal position.
All the beams could be seen clearly as there were ice crystals in the air. PEL1 turned away from the UFO momentarily and ran across a small clearing. When he turned back to look at it, it was gone.
At about the same time, PEL2 and PEL3 were travelling northbound just south of Pelly Crossing. To the north they spotted a huge row of lights slowly moving from left to right.
They pulled over at a gravel pit just south of the Village to get a better look and got out of their vehicle. PEL2 noticed that the Big Dipper was just above the row of lights and compared the length of the lights to the width of the Big Dipper.
They were about the same length! This observation was very important since it established a well-referenced angular size of the UFO from PEL2 and PEL3’s perspective, important for a more accurate triangulation and calculation of UFO size.
The accounts of witnesses PEL1 through 3 were enough to complete a calculation of UFO size. The observations of witnesses PEL4, 5, 6 and 7 about the same time provided a second triangulation. The four women were taking an evening course at a small community college in Pelly Crossing (a satellite school of Yukon College).
They were out on a break on the front deck of the one story building looking towards the west when they too observed the row of lights. The row of lights was travelling slowly almost towards them and slightly towards the north. They recall the object being huge as well; there was no sound at all. It moved slowly over the hill to the north and disappeared behind it.
Then there was the UFO sighting near the Village of Carmacks seen by 9 witnesses. The UFO was observed by two groups of people. CRM1, 2, 3 and 4 were on the highway northbound in a pick-up truck just south of Carmacks; CRM5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 consisted of a husband, wife and their 3 children.
They were watching television when they spotted the row of lights out of their window.
The four men traveling together pulled over near the landfill at the southern edge of the Village to get a better look at the UFO. They watched the noiseless object move slowly to the northeast, curve around them to the south and head up a valley adjacent to the microwave tower south of the village where it just vanished.
At one point the UFO was partially obscured behind a nearby hill and one witness recalls the UFO slowly reappearing on the other side of it. He remembers waiting a long time for the last light to reappear from behind the hill; that’s how slow and large the object was!
The object took up about a 60 to 90 degree horizontal chunk of the sky. CRM1 recalls hearing about the Fox Lake UFO sighting on the radio the next day and surmised that they saw the UFO about an hour and a half earlier, about 7:00 pm.
The family is not exactly sure what time it was when they saw the UFO, just that it was in the evening. They observed the row of lights just to the northwest of them moving slowly to the northeast. The lights were just over the treeline and there was no noise at all.
The lights continued to move until they disappeared one by one behind what appeared to be an invisible wall. There was no mountain in that direction that could account for this.
With the UFO sighting occurring just two weeks prior to Christmas, the three children thought that it was Santa Claus and his reindeer in the sky.
An estimate of the UFO size by triangulation was not possible for the Carmacks UFO sighting, as the geometry of the witness locations in relation to the UFO was less than ideal.
Furthermore, it was unclear whether both the family and the group of four men in the truck observed the UFO at the same time. Perhaps the UFO made more than one pass by the Village that night.
There is also some evidence to suggest that this “sighting event” encompassed an even larger area as UFO reports were heard on CBC North radio the very next day mentioning sightings in the communities of Dawson, Mayo and Watson Lake.
No witnesses from these additional communities have thus far come forward or been identified. NOTE: The above image is CGI.
Disc-shaped UFO arriving through traversable wormhole over Rincon, Georgia
Disc-shaped UFO arriving through traversable wormhole over Rincon, Georgia
Astrange event happened in the sky over Rincon in Georgia when the witness saw a streak of light and a disc-shaped UFO moving in front of it.
Frankie Jackson was taking his wife to work on the early morning of December 30, 2019 around 5.30 am when he saw something streaking through the trees.
The moment he got out of the car he witnessed the strange event in the sky, tried to hurry and captured it with his phone.
There are disc-shaped flying saucer craft and stealth space stations that were jointly developed with the National Reconnaissance Office. More incredible are the “stargates” or traversable wormholes that have been secretly developed and used for decades according to Exopolitics.
Did he witnessed such a disc-shaped craft arriving through a traversable wormhole?
Water on Mars PICTURED: ESA shares incredible IMAGES of Martian ice crater
Water on Mars PICTURED: ESA shares incredible IMAGES of Martian ice crater
The European Space Agency has shared an incredible composite image showing a 50-mile wide crater on Mars that is filled with water ice all year long.
Budding future colonists hoping for a white Christmas on Mars will be somewhat disappointed as the ESA has confirmed that sitting in the Korolev crater is, in fact, a thick block of water ice, not snow. The enormous, 82-kilometer-wide, 2-kilometer-deep “ice trap” could still be good for ice skating though.
Even better, the 2,200 cubic kilometers of water ice – same as the volume of Canada’s Great Bear Lake – could be important for the survival of future colonists, and may even enable them to return back home, as water could be split into hydrogen and oxygen for rocket fuel.
A beautiful #winter wonderland... on #Mars! This ice-filled crater was imaged by our Mars Express spacecraft. Korolev crater is 82 kilometres across and found in the northern lowlands of Mars. More images:
The crater is found in the northern lowlands of Mars near the planet's north pole which is known as Olympia Undae for its wavy, dune-filled terrain. The crater's ice is protected by the topography and by a lair of cold air that shields it from the elements.
The composite image was taken by the Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) and was actually formed from five different “strips,” with each strip gathered over a different orbit as the Mars Express probe flew overhead. The 2003-launched mission this month marks the 15-year anniversary of the probe’s orbit insertion at the Red Planet.
The icy crater is named after chief rocket engineer and spacecraft designer Sergey Korolev, known as the father of Soviet space technology and the head of iconic space exploration missions including the Sputnik, Vostok, and Voskhod programs. A lesser known fact is that Korolev dreamt about a flight to Mars for decades and was actually working on a rocket that would have brought a man to the Red Planet – and who knows where this unfinished project might have ended if it wasn’t for the Soviet visionary’s untimely death in 1966.
The discovery of a new, 'impossible' white dwarf suggests they may be more common than once thought.
An artist’s image of a white dwarf passing in front of a red dwarf star. As the white dwarf passes in front of its larger companion, it bends and magnifies the light of the background star.
Scientists have spotted an incredibly weird, 'impossible' white dwarf star in a discovery that suggests these objects are even more common than suspected — or that something even stranger is happening.
White dwarfs are stellar cores left behind by stars like our sun. As these stars run out of fuel, they shed their outer layers and leave behind a core that cools over billions of years. The mass of the white dwarf is based on that of the original star, which in turn reflects its age.
Those relationships mean that researchers can use the mass of a white dwarf to calculate its age. And over the last decade, astronomers have discovered around 100 white dwarfs with masses so low they appear to be older than the 14.8-billion-year-old universe.
So far, astronomers have addressed that conundrum by noting that almost all of these objects occur with a companion star that could be siphoning off some of the white dwarf's mass, making it appear older than it actually is. But a very small handful of these extremely low-mass white dwarfs have no companions to blame for their change in mass, raising the question of how these objects can exist.
In new research, scientists describe finding an extremely low-mass white dwarf that does have a companion, but that star is distant enough that it shouldn't be able to steal the white dwarf's mass. Because the odds of spotting such a pair with the instrument scientists used are so low, the discovery could mean that 'impossible' white dwarfs are far more common than previously imagined.
"This finding suggests that there is something missing in our current understanding of low mass white dwarf formation and/or binary interactions," Kento Masuda, lead author on a new paper describing the research and an astronomer at Princeton University, told Space.com by email.
A white dwarf puzzle
Masuda and his colleagues used data gathered by NASA's famous planet-hunting instrument, the Kepler space telescope. Scientists have found thousands of planets and exoplanet candidates in the data Kepler gathered over its nine-year primary and extended mission. The instrument spots planets as rhythmic dips in a star's brightness. The dimming is caused by the planet slipping between the star and Kepler, called a transit.
But the space telescope has produced a wealth of astronomical discoveries, as well. Last year, Masuda and his colleagues noticed that the G-type star KIC 8145411 brightened regularly, an unusual reversal of transit situations. If a pair of orbiting stars lines up with Earth, their light will change as one star passes in front of the other. Usually, the light dims, because the total light from the system is reduced while one star disappears on the back side.
However, if one of the stars is compact enough, like a white dwarf, it can bend the light of its companion star when it passes in front, acting as a lens to magnify the surface of the less-dense star. This phenomenon, dubbed self-microlensing when it occurs in a binary, would lead to pulses of brightness.
Self-lensing systems have been predicted for some time, but scientists couldn't spot such a pair until Kepler could study thousands of star systems simultaneously over time. The first such system was discovered in 2014; since then, four more have been found, including KIC 8145411.
But the real surprise came when Masuda and his colleagues turned the Subaru telescope in Hawaii and the 1.5-meter telescope at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory in Arizona on the newfound system.
Their follow-up observations revealed that the white dwarf was about one-fifth the mass of our sun, well within the class of extremely low-mass white dwarfs. But to the scientists' surprise, the companion star orbited too far from the white dwarf to have been able to filch its mass. Something else must be responsible for such a low apparent age for the white dwarf, the scientists concluded.
The big twist
It's possible, they added, that the white dwarf isn't a white dwarf after all. The scientists were only able to determine the object's mass and that it is relatively small; the team doesn't have a firm size estimate. That uncertainty means that the object lensing the star could actually be a denser black hole or neutron star that packs the same mass into less space. There are two arguments against a more exotic origin for the small object, however.
First, white dwarfs are far more common than either black holes or neutron stars, making them statistically more likely to be the mysterious companion. Perhaps more troublingly, astrophysicists don't have a good explanation for how such a low-mass neutron star or black hole might form, Masuda said, and they haven't spotted any tiny examples either, unlike extremely low-mass white dwarfs.
"I admit that this argument might not be totally convincing, given that we don't have a good explanation for how this white dwarf was formed anyway," he said.
If KIC 8145411 orbits with a white dwarf, it could prompt astronomers to take another look at what we think we know about how white dwarfs form and how they interact with companions.
"Single-star evolution cannot explain such an [extremely low-mass] white dwarf, so it's been assumed that interactions with a close binary play an important role," Masuda said. "But again, this binary interaction scenario fails to explain the observed orbit of the KIC 8145411 system, because the orbit is not so close as required for this scenario to work. So some parts of this story need to be modified — although we don't yet know which."
Masuda said he and his colleagues plan to continue the hunt for small white dwarfs in similar binaries to learn more about their properties.
"I hope they will help us to solve the puzzle presented by the KIC 8145411 system, and lead to [a] more complete understanding of white dwarfs in binaries," Masuda said.
The research is described in a paper published Aug. 5 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
Dark fluffy thunderclouds don't just fuel dramatic storms, they also produce some of the most energetic flashes of light on the planet — and brilliant sky displays known as ultrasonic "elves." Now, new findings have painted a clearer picture of what's going on in the silent interludes of a stormy sky.
For a long time, scientists have been searching for gamma-ray flashes in the deep folds of the universe. In 1994, while peering out into space in search for these signals, a NASA instrument happened to pick up on gamma-ray flashes that were emitted from somewhere closer to home — earthly thunderclouds.
These flashes, the most energetic natural phenomena on our planet, became known as terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs). They're created when a thunderstorms' strong electric field excites atmospheric particles, which then emit radiation. But not much was known about what causes this high-energy phenomenon.
To figure this out, a group of researchers analyzed data from a European Space Agency instrument called the Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) aboard the International Space Station. The ASIM is the first instrument to be used for the purpose of detecting TGFs, rather than their even brighter doppelgängers out in deep space, said Torsten Neubert, the head scientist of the ASIM and lead author of a study published Dec. 10 in the journal Science.
Their measurements showed a very specific sequence of events, lasting only a couple of milliseconds long, during a lightning strike. First, they detected an increase in light, which corresponds to the birth of a lightning bolt. During that process, a cloud creates both an electric field and a leader — a path of ionized air. They then detected a big peak in X-rays and gamma-rays, which correspond to the TGF, and then a huge optical pulse, Neubert told Live Science.
This optical pulse traveled up from the thundercloud to the ionosphere, a region of the atmosphere some 50 to 600 miles (80 to 1,000 kilometers) above Earth's surface. The pulse was "so powerful that it excited the lower region of the ionosphere," which is approximately 100 kilometers far and wide, Neubert said. In other words, it excited free electrons in the ionosphere, which then began colliding with neutral nitrogen and then emitted radiation.
This radiation is defined by another weather phenomenon, similar to auroras, called "elves," in which millisecond-long bursts of visible light and ultraviolet radiation glow in an expanding ring around a lightning strike. These luminous celestial beings, however, are visible only with the most sensitive equipment.
Prior to this study, elves were thought to be unrelated to thunderstorms. Their findings suggest that the same lightning bolt triggers both TGFs and elves, though it's not clear if TGFs have any role in producing the elves, Neubert said. It's also not clear if TGFs and elves happen every time lightning strikes, but it likely happens much more often than we can detect, he added.
Another recent finding, published Dec. 10 in the Journal of Geophysical Research Atmospheres, suggests that TGFs happen right before visible lightning. These brilliant flashes occur right before a pulse of electricity shoots through the charged cloud, becoming a lightning bolt, according to a statement. Both of these studies were presented this week at the American Geophysical Union's annual meeting in San Francisco.
"A lot of stuff is happening within space observations for lightning," some for monitoring weather and some for understanding the phenomenon, Neubert said. "Taken together [there's a] truly magnificent couple of years that are coming up."
The far side of the moon is an attention grabber for many reasons. A new mission idea capitalizes on those reasons in a project dubbed the Farside Array for Radio Science Investigations of the Dark ages and Exoplanets, shortened to this enlightened abbreviation: FARSIDE.
The concept would place a low-radio-frequency interferometric array on the far side of the moon. Jack Burns of the University of Colorado Boulder and Gregg Hallinan of the California Institute of Technology have sketched out a way to execute the mission in a NASA-funded report published last month.

According to those materials, FARSIDE would enable near-continuous monitoring of the nearest stellar systems, letting scientists search for coronal mass ejections and energetic particle events at other stars. The instrument would also be able to detect magnetospheres of the nearest exoplanets that could be habitable. FARSIDE would be able to characterize similar activity in our own solar system as well, from the sun to the outer planets, including the hypothetical Planet Nine.
But those are just the highlights. The team explained that FARSIDE could also conduct a range of other tasks. Those applications might include sounding the lunar subsurface and characterizing the interstellar medium in the solar system neighborhood.
The FARSIDE idea encompasses the instrument itself, a deployment rover, the lander and a base station. FARSIDE relies on 128 dipole antennas deployed across 6 miles (10 kilometers) of the lunar landscape by a rover. Tethers connect the antennas to a base station for central processing, power and data transmission to the proposed NASA Lunar Gateway or an alternative relay satellite.

FARSIDE would require transportation to the lunar surface, likely on board a commercial lunar lander. The study report uses the Blue Origin Blue Moon lander as a reference for the design.
All told, the team estimated that the budget for FARSIDE, after applying NASA and JPL standard cost reserves of 30% during development and 15% during operations, would be roughly $1.3 billion.

"In the past decade, significant investments have been made by commercial companies to develop the capability to deliver payloads to the surface of the moon, with some companies now on the horizon of success" the team wrote in the report. "NASA shows strong support of these companies through the Commercial Lunar Payload Services Program (CLPS), which recently awarded the first contract to three companies for payload delivery with a launch target in 2021."

"The study report notes that, because "sky noise" is so limited on the lunar farside, it's the only location within the inner solar system from which observations can be carried out, using frequencies that would best fulfill the promise of FARSIDE."
This study may be of interest to the lunar science community, Burns said, since it describes "how the array of low frequency radio dipole antennas might also be used to probe the subsurface on the lunar farside and as stations for seismic activity."

This video was just submitted to me via our Facebook page. It was filmed over Hot Spring, Arkansas earlier in 2019.

Scientists at the University of Bristol and the Technical University of Denmark have achieved quantum teleportation between two computer chips for the first time. The team managed to send information from one chip to another instantly without them being physically or electronically connected, in a feat that opens the door for quantum computersand quantum internet.
This kind of teleportation is made possible by a phenomenon called quantum entanglement, where two particles become so entwined with each other that they can “communicate” over long distances. Changing the properties of one particle will cause the other to instantly change too, no matter how much space separates the two of them. In essence, information is being teleported between them.
Hypothetically, there’s no limit to the distance over which quantum teleportation can operate – and that raises some strange implications that puzzled even Einstein himself. Our current understanding of physics says that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, and yet, with quantum teleportation, information appears to break that speed limit. Einstein dubbed it “spooky action at a distance.”
Harnessing this phenomenon could clearly be beneficial, and the new study helps bring that closer to reality. The team generated pairs of entangled photons on the chips, and then made a quantum measurement of one. This observation changes the state of the photon, and those changes are then instantly applied to the partner photon in the other chip.
“We were able to demonstrate a high-quality entanglement link across two chips in the lab, where photons on either chip share a single quantum state,” says Dan Llewellyn, co-author of the study. “Each chip was then fully programmed to perform a range of demonstrations which utilize the entanglement. The flagship demonstration was a two-chip teleportation experiment, whereby the individual quantum state of a particle is transmitted across the two chips after a quantum measurement is performed. This measurement utilizes the strange behavior of quantum physics, which simultaneously collapses the entanglement link and transfers the particle state to another particle already on the receiver chip.”
The team reported a teleportation success rate of 91 percent, and managed to perform some other functions that will be important for quantum computing. That includes entanglement swapping (where states can be passed between particles that have never directly interacted via a mediator), and entangling as many as four photons together.
Information has been teleported over much longer distances before – first across a room, then 25 km (15.5 mi), then 100 km (62 mi), and eventually over 1,200 km (746 mi) via satellite. It’s also been done between different parts of a single computer chip before, but teleporting between two different chips is a major breakthrough for quantum computing.
The research was published in the journal Nature Physics.
The oft-delayed space observatory will be worth the wait.
The fully assembled James Webb Space Telescope with its sunshield and “unitized pallet structures” (which fold up around the telescope for launch) are seen partially deployed to an open configuration to enable telescope installation.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is (currently) scheduled to launch in March of 2021, after years of delays and billions of dollars spent over budget. While it's easy to argue that all that time and money has been wasted, this observatory will be the premiere and undisputed champion of infrared wavelengths, giving us unparalleled access to corners of the universe currently inaccessible.
If we want to learn new things about everything from the first galaxies to the chance for life on other planets, the roughly $9.7 billion James Webb is our only hope.
While the James Webb Space Telescope ("JWST" to those in the know) is heralded as the "successor" to NASA's storied Hubble Space Telescope, it kind of isn't. The Hubble is primarily an optical telescope, capturing wavelengths of light similar to the range that the human eye does, and extending past that a little bit into the infrared and ultraviolet (UV) portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. In essence, the Hubble is a giant orbiting space eyeball, delivering stunning pictures that you would see, if your optic nerves were similarly equipped.
But the JWST is different. It will be observing entirely in the infrared, barely scratching the deepest possible reds that a human can see. In other words, the JWST will be studying a universe that is largely invisible to human experience.
One of the major reasons that the JWST is designed to be an infrared scope is that infrared astronomy is, in general, really hard to do from the surface of the Earth. Light pollution is the bane of astronomers, who need their skies crystal-clear and perfectly dark to do their detailed observations and measurements.
And infrared light pollution comes from many different places. Basically, anything warm. Which is, basically, everything. Human bodies generate 100 watts of infrared radiation. The Earth itself is pretty warm, glowing strongly in infrared bands. Even the telescope itself, if it's at room temperature, is aglow in the infrared.
It's not that we can't do infrared astronomy from the ground, it's just that it's frustratingly hard.
Hence, space.
Far from home
The JWST will operate about 1 million miles (1.5 million kilometers) from the Earth, to get it safely far away from our warm, infrared-glowing planet. But even still, there's the sun to contend with. Ever sit outside on a nice summer day, feeling the warmth of our sun on your skin? Yeah, that's infrared radiation, pumped out by the bucketful. And even a million miles away from the Earth, the sun is still a little bit toasty.
To combat this, designers of infrared space telescopes have a couple options. The most common choice is to use an active cooling system, chilling down the telescope to the temperatures needed to properly observe infrared wavelengths. This is great, and utilized by previous infrared space telescopes, but it does limit their lifespans. No more coolant = no more astronomy.
So instead the JWST will deploy a giant, expensive space umbrella, 72 feet (22 meters) long and 36 feet (11 m) wide, made of five layers of extremely reflective material, each layer thinner than a human hair. This massive "sunshield" will keep the telescope itself in constant shade, somewhere south of minus 370 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 223 degrees Celsius), which is ideal for the infrared wavelengths it will be studying.
Although, just for fun, one of the instruments onboard will be chilled with an active cooling system to below minus 433 Fahrenheit (minus 258 C ), which will allow it to access some even longer infrared wavelengths.
All in all, the JWST is massive. In fact, it's so big that it shouldn't be able to fit on a rocket. Besides the gargantuan sunshield, the primary mirror will be 21 feet (6.5 m) across, which is far wider than any rocket fairing currently in use. Duct-taping the mirror to the side of the rocket isn't exactly a workable solution, so instead the clever NASA engineers broke the mirror into 18 smaller hexagonal sections, which will be tucked and folded into the rocket (along with the folded-up sunshield and the rest of the telescope itself).
If everything goes right, just a few days after launch the JWST will head to its observing point, unfold, and start staring.
And what it will see will be — and I'm not using this word lightly — remarkable. One of its main targets will be the early universe, when our cosmos was just a few hundred million years old. The first stars and galaxies to appear on the cosmic scene blazed brightly in the visible spectrum, but over the course of the past 13 billion years the universe has expanded, stretching that light out of the visible range and down into the infrared — right in the sweet spot of the JWST's design parameters.
Since we have no images at all from the epoch of the first stars and galaxies (known colloquially as the "cosmic dawn") this will be our first-ever view into this important age in the history of the cosmos.
Closer to home, the JWST will study anything cool in the cosmos, from protoplanetary disks around newborn stars to molecular clouds, comets, Kuiper Belt objects and more.
And JWST will use a specialized device to block out light from some distant stars, enabling the observatory to snap pictures of any objects orbiting those stars — like exoplanets. Those planets will be glowing in the infrared, and the light from those planets will be modified by the chemicals and elements in their atmospheres, chemicals and elements which might be signs of life.
From ET hunter to cosmic-dawn revealer, the JWST will certainly be worth the wait.
BBC transfers HP Lovecraft drama to site of Rendlesham UFO incident
BBC transfers HP Lovecraft drama to site of Rendlesham UFO incident

The Whisperer in Darkness features actress Jana Carpenter
A podcast based on a 1930 American horror story has been relocated due to fresh inspiration from "rural English mythology" and an alleged UFO sighting.
The BBC Sounds podcast The Whisperer in Darkness features reports by US airmen who claimed to have seen a UFO in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk in 1980.
Writer Julian Simpson visited drama locations in Suffolk with actress Jana Carpenter before penning the series.
His version is loosely based on the novella set in Vermont by HP Lovecraft.
Image captionWriter Julian Simpson and his wife actress Jana Carpenter visited the Rendlesham Forest UFO Trail as part of their research
Lovecraft's story is about strange sightings in the New England area of the USA.
The new BBC drama tells the story of an investigation into witchcraft, the occult and secret government operations - centred on Rendlesham Forest, which was home to the US airbase of RAF Woodbridge when the alleged "Rendlesham Forest incident" occurred in December 1980.
Image copyrightBBC/COLONEL CHARLES HALTImage captionCol Charles Halt, one of the servicemen who claimed to have witnessed the UFO at Rendlesham, is mentioned in the new drama
Simpson said there were parallels between Lovecraft's story and the UFO incident - which has never been conclusively explained.
"The Lovecraft tale is about a guy who lives in the woods. He's being visited by something - a kind of cosmic horror," he said.
"You never find out what is watching him, but there is an inference it is somehow otherworldly.
"Lovecraft was reading people like Arthur Machen and MR James [who set a number of his ghost stories in East Anglia] and was taking in a lot of their rural English mythology and turning it into his own thing."

Jana Carpenter, who plays Kennedy Fisher - one of the two main characters, said: "Basically we just got in the car and drove around to all these places that we were thinking of using. We went to Woodbridge, Dunwich, Aldeburgh, Orford.
"You definitely get the sense that you're in a unique environment and it's not surprising that lots of mythologies can build up in this environment.
"It still feels disconnected, especially when you go to Orford, you have to drive through the forest to get to it."

If you're feeling all tied up with obligations this holiday season, perhaps a newly studied galaxy feels the same way.
A new image of NGC 4631, more popularly known as the "Whale Galaxy," shows ropes of magnetic filaments extending above and below the disk of the galaxy. The filaments, which show up in green and blue in the picture, reach far into the galaxy's halo of gas and dust. The green filaments have a magnetic field pointing away from Earth; the blue ones have a field pointing toward our planet.
Also visible is the galaxy's star disk, which is shown in pink.
The researchers behind the image are still trying to understand how the galaxy's magnetic structure works, according to a statement released with the image. They would like to know how common these sorts of magnetic fields are in galactic halos and what shapes the fields take.
Studying such magnetic fields can also help astronomers understand how galaxies develop magnetic fields, and whether fluid motion in a galaxy, which scientists call the dynamo effect, generates the magnetic field.
The observations were made with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array, a telescope operated by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO).
"We are a little bit like the blind men and the elephant, since each time we look at the galaxy in a different way, we reach a different conclusion about its nature," co-author Richard Henriksen, an astrophysicist at Queen's University in Canada, said in a NRAO statement.
"However, we seem to have one of those rare occasions where a classical theory, about magnetic generators called dynamos, predicted the observations of NGC 4631 quite well," he added. "Our dynamo model produces spiraling magnetic fields in the halo that are a continuation of the normal spiral arms in the galaxy's disc."
The galaxy lies about 25 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation Canes Venatici. It is 80,000 light-years across and has a small companion (NGC 4627). An additional small elliptical galaxy is visible in the new image.
Correction: A previous headline for this article stated the Whale Galaxy was 80,000 light-years from Earth. It is 80,000 light-years across and 25 million light-years from Earth.
Een Chinese wetenschapper die genen van baby’s aanpaste, is veroordeeld tot een gevangenisstraf van drie jaar. Dat meldt het Chinese staatsmedium Xinhua.
Vandaag werd de wetenschapper door een rechtbank in de miljoenenstad Shenzhen veroordeeld voor “het illegaal uitvoeren van genetische manipulatie bij embryo’s, met reproductie als doeleinde”, zegt Xinhua. Naast een celstraf van drie jaar, krijgt hij ook een boete van 3 miljoen yuan (ongeveer 380.000 euro).
He Jiankui maakt in november 2018 bekend dat hij een gentechnologie genaamd CRISPR-Cas9 had gebruikt om de genen van embryo’s van een tweeling, Lulu en Nana, aan te passen. Door de aanpassing werden de twee meisjes resistent gemaakt tegen hiv, het virus waarmee hun vader besmet was. De Chinese overheid had daarop een onderzoek ingesteld.
“Ik voel een enorme verantwoordelijkheid om niet alleen de eerste te zijn, maar ook als voorbeeld te dienen”, zei hij later tijdens een congres. Over het al dan niet toelaten van de omstreden techniek zei hij: “Het is de maatschappij die zal beslissen over de volgende stappen.”
De bekendmaking van He zorgde voor verontwaardiging en afkeuring in de hele wereld. Hij werd kort hierna onder huisarrest geplaatst en ontslagen door zijn werkgever de universiteit in Shenzhen. Chinese autoriteiten lieten in 2018 al weten dat He alleen en op eigen initiatief heeft gehandeld en dat hij zijn eigen financiering regelde. Ook zou hij meerdere richtlijnen hebben overtreden.
One of the top stories of the 2010’s has been the rise – although not the perfection — of the somewhat controversial gene-editing technique known as CRISPR, which is the convenient and deceivingly innocent-sounding abbreviation for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats. One of the top stories of 2019 has been the revelation that CRISPR was used to edit human embryos in China, resulting in the birth of twin girls, under the noble cause of trying to prevent them from developing HIV later in life — a goal that may not have been achieved. The researcher who did the editing faced heavy criticism and disappeared for a time, generating conspiracy theories as to his whereabouts. As the year and the decade end, CRISPR and He Jiankui are back in the news one more time.
“Chinese researcher He Jiankui was sentenced to three years in prison and fined 3 million yuan (about 430,000 U.S. dollars) for illegally carrying out human embryo gene-editing intended for reproduction, in which three genetically edited babies were born, a court in south China’s Shenzhen city said Monday.”
Xinhua News reports that the Nanshan District People’s Court of Shenzhen convicted He, who formerly worked as an associate professor at the Southern University of Science and Technology, of illegal medical practice and simultaneously announced that He had edited a third embryo which was brought to term. Two of his non-doctor associates and co-conspirators – Zhang Renli and Qin Jinzhou – were also found guilty and sentenced to two and one and a half years in prison respectively, with Jinzhou’s shorter sentence being suspended.
“(The defendants), in the pursuit of fame and profit, deliberately violated the relevant national regulations on scientific and medical research and crossed the bottom line on scientific and medical ethics.”
Interestingly (and possibly suspiciously), He offered no proof that he actually used CRISPR to create three genetically-modified babies. It seems he was convicted on the fact that he bragged about it at scientific conferences and on the testimony by colleagues that he was certainly capable of doing it and probably did. The trial was held in secrecy to ‘protect the innocent’ and there are no statements from He. Whether one agrees with the ethical fight against human CRISPR editing or not, does this sound like a fair trial? Could it perhaps be a show to keep the rest of the world scientific community from investigating what’s really going on in the gene-editing labs of China?
The New York Times points out that American scientist Stephen Quake, a bioengineer and He’s former academic adviser at Stanford, is under investigation, as is Michael Deem, who was He’s Ph.D. adviser at Rice University and was allegedly involved in the project – something his lawyers deny.
What does this mean for CRISPR in the 2020s? If the human embryo gene-editing cat isn’t already out of the ethics bag, its head, body and half of its tail are and the only thing keeping it in is not ethics but … you guessed it … money. You don’t need to be Baba Vanga or Nostradamus to make this prediction
Of all of the UFO sightings and encounters on record, very few can claim to have been witnessed by more than a few people at a time at best. These are typically very isolated incidents, seen by only small groups of people at most, and this has only further served to generate doubt on the part of skeptics or for those who place no veracity on UFO phenomena as a whole. Yet, every once in a while there is a truly spectacular case of a mass sighting that gets plenty of documentation and exposure, and perhaps one of the most well-known, classic accounts of this occurred in 1997, when thousands of people witnessed something unexplainable in the dark skies over the U.S. state of Arizona.
What has gone on to become one of the most well-known and oft-discussed and debated mass UFO sightings in history is widely accepted as having started on March 13, 1997 in the skies over Henderson, Nevada, in the United States. Here a witness claimed that at approximately 6:55 PM he saw a large, V-shaped object about the same size as a passenger airliner with a formation of six lights along it front edge, which flew across the sky at a good clip with a sort of whooshing noise to disappear to the southeast. This same object would soon after be witnessed by a police officer from Paulden, Arizona at around 8:15 PM, who said that he saw a triangular formation of four mysterious lights trailed by a fifth, and claimed to have watched the strange sight through his binoculars as they travelled south.
This would be the beginning of one of the most famous UFO cases there is. Before long there were sightings coming in of something strange in the sky coming in from the area of Prescott, Arizona and the Prescott Valley. Many of the witnesses at the time described it as solid, blocking out the stars and the sky as it passed over, and it was mostly explained as being rather enormous. One witness who saw the boomerang-shaped object said it was massive, at least a mile wide, stating:
We don’t have anything that big. It was totally silent. I’ve never seen anything even close to the colors from the exhaust that propelled that thing. It was as big as downtown Prescott and completely blocked out the stars.
The object or objects was usually described as being a V-shaped or wedge-shaped formation of red or orange lights, with the leading light being a bright white, usually said to be embedded within a solid object but descriptions varied, and they were sometimes claimed to be separate lights moving independently. At the time there were dozens of witnesses from all ages and walks of life observing it as it made its way inexorably towards Phoenix to the southeast. The lights were also seen from the nearby town of Dewey, around 10 miles away, and as they drew closer to the greater Phoenix area there would be a deluge of people seeing whatever it was that had come in from out of the unknown.
The phenomenon reached Phoenix at around 8:30 PM, after which it hovered around the area for around two hours, being seen by thousands of people in the process. During this time it seems that there were actually two separate events going on over the region at the same time, with one being the massive V-shaped group of lights moving through the air, and a second formation of lights south of Phoenix that seemed to be stationary or moving very slowly. These lights, which wuld go on to collectively be known as the “Phoenix Lights,” were seen by people from all walks of life, including police officers, pilots, military personnel, and even the governor, none of who could come up with any explanation for what was going on. While most of the reports described some massive solid object, an interesting aspect of it all is that witness descriptions of the phenomena tended to vary to quite a wide degree, of which UFOlogist Peter B. Davenport has said:
Witnesses were reporting such markedly different objects and events that night that it was difficult for investigators to understand what was taking place. Some witnesses reported five lights, others seven, or even more. Some reported that the lights were distinctly orange or red, whereas others reported distinctly white or yellow lights. Many reported the lights were moving across the sky at seemingly high speed, whereas others reported they moved at a slow (angular) velocity, or they even hovered for several minutes.
An image of the Phoenix Lights
The objects were being seen all over the place at the time, seen in places as far away as Las Vegas, New Mexico, and northern Mexico, always inspiring awe and dread. In the meantime, the media didn’t really seem to show much interest in it, and officials seemed to treat it as a big joke, with Arizona Governor Fife Symington III holding a press conference on the situation flanked by an aide wearing an alien costume. However, when the story hit USA Today it blew up into national news, appearing all over newspapers and TV shows. The USA Today piece was quite sensational, including the line, “The incident over Arizona was the most dramatic I’ve seen. . . . What we have here is the real thing. They are here,” and people ate it up. Before long the Phoenix lights were being talked about and widely discussed all over the nation, with theories being thrown about as to what the phenomena could have been, which is made somewhat complicated by the fact that it seems that there were two separate phenomena going on at the same time, the large moving object and the hovering lights.
One of the main ideas put forward was that at least the second event concerning the stationary lights was simply flares dropped by the military during a nighttime training exercise, but this has been challenged by many. Curiously one of the main opponents of the flare theory was the governor himself, who would end up later changing his tune entirely, claiming to have seen the lights himself, and he would say of this:
As a pilot and a former Air Force Officer, I can definitively say that this craft did not resemble any man made object I’d ever seen. And it was certainly not high-altitude flares because flares don’t fly in formation. It was enormous and inexplicable. Who knows where it came from? A lot of people saw it, and I saw it too. It was dramatic. And it couldn’t have been flares because it was too symmetrical. It had a geometric outline, a constant shape. I’m a pilot and I know just about every machine that flies. It was bigger than anything that I’ve ever seen. It remains a great mystery.
Symington also found it odd that his attempts to get more information from the government on what was going out out there were shot down with basically “no comment,” and that no government agency had made any effort to seriously investigate. Another opponent of the flare theory was UFO enthusiast Jim Dilettoso, who claimed that he had done a full spectral analysis of the lights in one of the videos and determined that they could not have possibly come from a manmade source. However, considering that such an analysis on video footage images would be inaccurate, this had been criticized as an incomplete analysis at best. It has also been pointed out that the wind direction and speed at the time were consistent with flares as to the movement seen with the pattern of lights, which also supports the flare theory, as does the fact that the lights seemed to dip over the horizon and disappear, very much as flares would do. With regards to at least this aspect of the event, even UFOlogists have conceded that it could have been flares in this case.

The first event, which covers that huge, light studded craft moving over the state and blocking out the stars, has been more difficult to explain. Skeptics say that it was just a formation of high altitude aircraft flying in formation on a classified mission, the blackened sky just an illusion. This has been corroborated by amateur astronomer Mitch Stanley, who claims that on the night of the incident he had observed the large V-shaped craft through a telescope to find that it was unambiguously aircraft, specifically a formation of five planes that were either A-10s or possibly T-37 fighter-trainers. However, many of the thousands of witnesses have denied that this could have been the case, the planes were apparently not picked up on radar, and the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson did not assert that they had any aircraft in the air at the time. In the end, it all remains a curious oddity, of which one investigator with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) has said:
Do we have evidence that it was an extraterrestrial event? No. We have evidence that it was an extremely bizarre event. We can’t put a label on it other than it was an anomaly.
Interestingly, there have been reemergences of the lights in later years that have been explained as flares. On February 6, 2007, almost exactly the same thing was seen over Phoenix and military officials were quick to admit that it was flares they had dropped, and on April 21, 2008, there was another wave of sightings of the lights, this time found to be flares attached to balloons. Yet, the sightings that remain the most well known is the original 1997 incident, and whatever was behind it all, the Phoenix Lights have continued to have a place among the greatest, most extensively seen and documented UFO sightings ever, and still remain mostly a mystery.

Snowmageddon Warnings in North America Come from Tropics More Than Arctic Stratosphere
Snowmageddon Warnings in North America Come from Tropics More Than Arctic Stratosphere
Winter weather patterns in North America are dictated by changes to the polar vortex winds high in the atmosphere, but the most significant cold snaps are more likely influenced by the tropics, scientists have found.
A team led by the University of Reading conducted the first ever study to identify how the four main winter weather patterns in North America behave depending on the strength of the stratospheric polar vortex. This is a ribbon of wind and low pressure that circles the Arctic at heights of 10-50km, trapping cold air inside. The four US weather regimes (clockwise from top left): Pacific Trough, Arctic High, Alaskan Ridge, Arctic Low. Red indicates warmer conditions and blue colder conditions

It is already well established that the vortex wind strength influences weather in Europe and Asia, and the study revealed it also has a strong effect on three out of the four main winter weather patterns in North America, giving forecasters an additional tool to understand potentially high-impact weather during winter.
The study, published in Geophysical Research Letters, also revealed that, unlike in Europe, the most extreme cold snaps affecting the whole of North America are not most likely to occur after a weak vortex. Instead, the shape of the vortex and conditions in the tropics were identified as stronger influences of these conditions.
Simon Lee, atmospheric scientist at the University of Reading and lead author of the study, said: “Despite the most extreme cold snaps experienced in North America often being described as ‘polar vortex outbreaks’, our study suggests vortex strength should not be considered as a cause.
“We know that a weakened polar vortex allows cold air to flood out from the Arctic over Europe and Asia, but we found this is surprisingly not the case the other side of the Atlantic.
“In fact, our work suggests we should actually look south to conditions around the equator, rather than north to the Arctic, for the causes of these widespread freezing conditions in North America.
“Our results did reveal that the polar vortex strength provides useful information on the likelihood of most weather patterns over the US and Canada further in advance, including some potentially disruptive temperature changes or heavy rain. The more accurate information populations have about upcoming changes in weather, the better they can prepare.”

One of the clearest suggested effects of a strong vortex was a 10-15% likelihood of extremely cold conditions in western parts of North America, including Alaska, but milder conditions in central and eastern parts of the US.
Another weather pattern found to most often follow neutral or strong vortex wind speeds brings temperatures 5°C above normal and wetter weather in the eastern US.
The exception in the results was that the weather pattern associated with the highest chance of the most widespread extreme cold in North America, in which average temperatures in the central US are more than 5°C below normal, was not found to have a strong dependence on a weaker vortex, as it does in Europe.
They found widespread extreme cold is more common when an area of high pressure extends up to Alaska, and the polar vortex stretches down towards North America – pushing cold Arctic air southward in the lower atmosphere.
The scientists say the influence of the stratosphere on weather patterns, as well as how this interacts with long-term weather patterns in the tropics like El Niño, should be studied further and incorporated into forecasts to improve their accuracy.

The solar wind that pummels the Earth’s dayside magnetosphere causes turbulence, like air over a wing. Physicists at Rice University have developed new methods to characterize how that influences space weather on the nightside.
It’s rarely quiet up there. The solar wind streams around the Earth and cruises off into the night, but closer to the planet, parcels of plasma get caught in the turbulence and sink back toward Earth. That turbulence causes big ripples in the plasma.

With the help of several spacecraft and computational tools developed over the past decade, Rice scientists led by space plasma physicist Frank Toffoletto can now assess the ripples, called buoyancy waves, caused by the turbulence.
These waves, or oscillations, have been observed in the thin layer of magnetic flux along the base of the plasma sheet that tails away from the planet’s nightside. The Rice theory is the first to quantify their motion.
The theory adds another element to the Rice Convection Model, an established, decades-in-the-making algorithm that helps scientists calculate how the inner and middle magnetosphere will react to events like solar storms that threaten satellites, communications and power grids on Earth.
The new paper in JGR Space Physics by Toffoletto, emeritus professor Richard Wolf and former graduate student Aaron Schutza starts by describing the bubbles — “bursty bulk flows” predicted by Wolf and Rice alumnus Duane Pontius in 1990 — that fall back toward Earth through the plasma tail.

Functionally, they’re the reverse of buoyant air bubbles that bob up and down in the atmosphere because of gravity, but the plasma bubbles respond to magnetic fields instead. The plasma bubbles lose most of their momentum by the time they touch down at the theoretical, filamentlike boundary between the inner plasma sheet and the protective plasmasphere.
That sets the braking boundary into a gentle oscillation, which lasts mere minutes before stabilizing again. Toffoletto compared the motion to a plucked guitar string that quickly returns to equilibrium.
“The fancy name for this is the eigenmode,” he said. “We’re trying to figure out the low-frequency eigenmodes of the magnetosphere. They haven’t been studied very much, though they appear to be associated with dynamic disruptions to the magnetosphere.”

Toffoletto said the Rice team has in recent years discovered through simulations that the magnetosphere doesn’t always respond in a linear fashion to the steady driving force of the solar wind.
“You get all kinds of wave modes in the system,” he said, explaining that bursty bulk flows are one such mode. “Every time one of these things come flying in, when they hit the inner region, they basically reach their equilibrium point and oscillate with a certain frequency. Finding that frequency is what this paper is all about.”
As measured by the THEMIS spacecraft, the periods of these waves are a few minutes and the amplitudes are often bigger than the Earth.
“Understanding the natural frequency of the system and how it behaves can tell us a lot about the physical properties of plasma on the nightside, its transport and how it might be related to the aurora,” he said. “A lot of these phenomena show up in the ionosphere as auroral structures, and we don’t understand where these structures come from.”
Toffoletto said the models suggest buoyant waves may play a role in the formation of the ring current that consists of charged particles that flow around Earth as well as magnetospheric substorms, all of which are connected to the aurora.
He said that no more than a decade ago, many magnetosphere simulations “would look very uniform, kind of boring.” The Rice group is collaborating with the Applied Physics Laboratory to include the Rice Convection Model in a newly developed global magnetosphere code called “Gamera,” named after the fictional Japanese monster.
“Now, with such higher-resolution models and much better numerical methods, these structures are starting to show up in the simulations,” Toffoletto said. “This paper is one little piece of the puzzle we’re putting together of how the system behaves. All this plays a big role in understanding how space weather works and how that in turn impacts technology, satellites and ground-based systems.”
The Rice Convection Model itself was refreshed this month in a paper led by recent Rice alumnus Jian Yang, now an associate professor of Earth and space sciences at the Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen, China.
The new study was supported by a NASA Heliophysics Supporting Research grant.
