NASA will deflect the asteroid’s trajectory and the whole thing will be televised

Before explaining what it is about, it should be emphasized that the asteroid called Dimorphos does not pose any danger to Earth. Here, so that the world does not think that it is coming to us, we transpose the movie “Armageddon” live. In no case. This whole operation is NASA’s test for a possible situation when the trajectory of such an asteroid will actually intersect with the Earth.

In short, on September 26 at 02:14 (Romanian time), NASA will launch an unmanned space module with an autonomous navigation system that will collide with the asteroid in question, trying to deflect its trajectory. The whole operation, which is called DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test), will be streamed live on Facebook, You Tube, Twitter and more. so that absolutely anyone can watch it. In any case, we’ll keep you posted if anything else comes up in the meantime.

As a detail, the asteroid Dimorphos has a diameter of 170 meters and the mentioned test is the first of its kind. Actually, a test, because NASA is going to repeat the whole operation on November 1st. In 2024, the European Space Agency (ESA) will launch another space shuttle, Hera, to closely study what the Americans did. That is, of course, unless NASA accidentally redirects that asteroid to Russia or China. Then you see a scandal and a commotion!

The drought is so severe that dinosaur tracks begin to appear

You have seen in the press in the last few days that the traces of the more or less distant past have begun to appear against the background of a severe drought and a decrease in the flow of major rivers. For the Spaniards, the megalithic complex, which is about 7,000 years old, came out of the water.

On our side and on the Serbian side, against the background of the lowering of the water level in the Danube, the wreckage of some German ships, deliberately sunk by them at the end of the Second World War, appeared. Across China, on the Yangtze River, a Buddha statue, about 600 years old, was also discovered for the reasons mentioned. And there will be more of them, because from now on we will not lack drought, on the contrary.

However, the Americans could not miss this opportunity to show us that they are also the best. And here is a stunning discovery. Ago, CNN tells usat Valley State Park in Texas, a park known for the discovery of dinosaur footprints embedded in rock, the Paluxy River has dropped dramatically, revealing dozens of other dinosaur footprints that no one knew existed. he knew

It did not happen that they stood under water for a long time, they were also covered with silt, so it was not enough to come across them. Well, look, now they gave there. They even identified two dinosaur footprints from around 113 million years ago. A predatory animal from the genus Acrocanthosaurus (11 m long and about 7 tons of average weight) and Sauroposeidon, a sauropod about 18 meters long and about 40 tons. What else can you tell them? Did they take our face again? It was taken from us.

How some American researchers want to save us from global warming

It is common knowledge that global warming has negative consequences. One of them could be the same study we are about to talk about, which was recently published in one of the most famous scientific journals, PNAS. And, say experts from Cornell University in New York, they thought about research for the reason that it is possible to counteract the process of global warming by “injecting” some sulfur aerosols into the stratosphere.

Until we explain what the author wanted to say with his work, we emphasize that the previous idea is not new at all. He is about 20 years old. All they did was take it back, take a closer look, and say it doesn’t look as bad as it did at first.

These aerosols are a set of particles in a solid or liquid state that are dispersed in a gaseous medium. In our case, sulfur dioxide is sent into the stratosphere with the help of a fleet of special ships to fly at a high altitude, which does not exist anyway.

The problem with this solution is that sulfur dioxide turns into sulfuric acid. Not only are you blowing out the ozone layer, but you could be left with nothing when the acid rain starts. True, it will be cooler, but under the shadow of aerosols it will not be of any use to us.

Basically, this is what a volcano does when it wants to lower the temperature by at least one degree. Now, if you take the authors themselves, they say that this evil is better than global warming. But even when you see what they have to offer, it doesn’t even feel like you have to fight the heat because you’re breaking into a cold sweat anyway.

If you don’t get enough sleep, you are no longer generous

After all, if you don’t sleep at night to rest, that is, somewhere around 7-8 hours, your level of empathy decreases significantly. This discovery was shared with us by some researchers who have just published it Plos Biology. What they said is a veiled version of tiredness making you cranky and not wanting to interact with the world anymore. As they say, you are not as generous as you used to be.

Well, and for this idea, did they finish this research? Is this what they spent the money on? Anyone could have told them that. Just think how dirty your face is when you wake up to go to work, how happy you are when you drink your morning coffee, and how generously you would give… what you have to offer to others. to nature, this wonderful planet that does not let you sleep.

Well, how difficult was it to realize that without rest, without modern stimuli of energy, an ordinary person can barely determine where he is? Only sympathy does not burn him. In those moments. Then, if you suffer from insomnia and can’t sleep at night, frankly, your lack of generosity and compassion should be your last concern.
