NASA's Artemis II crew are the fastest people alive, and now they have the patch to prove it.

Mission Commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover, and mission specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen (the latter with the Canadian Space Agency) spent 10 days in early April flying by the Moon. Their journey took them farther away from Earth than any humans have gone (52,756 miles [406,771 km]) and then, on the way back on board their Orion spacecraft Integrity, they sped up to about 24,664 miles per hour (39,693 k/ph) reentering the atmosphere.

Only three other people in history have traveled faster. NASA's Apollo 10 astronauts Thomas Stafford, John Young, and Eugene Cernan set the record for the highest speed attained by a crewed vehicle relative to the Earth's surface: 24,791 mph (39,897 kph) on May 26, 1969.

O financiamento europeu pode ajudar a reduzir o risco da transição para a IA, mas não substitui a decisão estratégica. São as empresas que têm de identificar prioridades, definir objetivos e escolher os primeiros casos de aplicação com impacto real, defende Paulo Ribeiro.

In un’epoca caratterizzata dal carovita e da una crescente attenzione alla sostenibilità, ridurre lo spreco alimentare è diventato un imperativo sia economico che etico. Tuttavia, la paura delle intossicazioni spinge spesso i consumatori a gettare alimenti ancora perfettamente edibili. Basandosi sulle più recenti evidenze scientifiche e nutrizionali diffuse dagli esperti di sicurezza alimentare, è possibile […]

A North Korean man is set to face trial in Tanzania this week following his arrest in April while in possession of 500 elephant tusks. Un Hyok Ra was arrested April 19 at a hotel in Dar es Salaam, and is scheduled on June 9 to answer to charges of unlawful possession of the ivory and intent to trade it. Tanzania is a signatory to CITES, the global wildlife trade convention, which requires parties to conduct forensic analysis of ivory seizures of 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds) or more to determine where it came from. This is intended to support investigations that go beyond the typically low-level traffickers who are caught in possession. Tanzanian police did not respond to questions from Mongabay about the origins of the seized ivory or who Ra allegedly planned to sell it to. During an administrative hearing on May 28, prosecutor Florida Wancelaus told the court only that investigations are ongoing. Chris Morris, founder of wildlife crime monitoring group Saving Elephants through Education and Justice (SEEJ), based in neighboring Kenya, estimated that 504 tusks would weigh roughly 2,500 kg (about 5,500 lbs). In an email to Mongabay, he said law enforcement in the region does not always meet the CITES requirement to conduct DNA analysis on confiscated ivory. “It remains to be seen if Tanzania will comply with this directive,” Morris wrote. Morris, a former war crimes investigator, said Tanzanian authorities have often withheld information that would help sister agencies in the region and beyond trace…This article was originally published on Mongabay

After a 50-year search, astronomers have uncovered evidence that Sagittarius A* -- the 4.3-million-solar-mass black hole that resides at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy -- is blowing a hot cosmic wind into its surroundings, carving out a giant cavity near the Galaxy’s heart.

Quattro miliardi di anni fa, il sistema solare esterno era un flipper cosmico dove pianeti giganti migravano scambiandosi le orbite e scagliando corpi celesti nello spazio profondo. Secondo le ultime simulazioni dinamiche eseguite da Matthew Clement della Johns Hopkins University, questa antica migrazione planetaria nasconde un’anomalia distruttiva: i conti con i satelliti di Urano non […]

Il riscaldamento globale sta alterando radicalmente la dinamica delle grandinate a livello planetario. Secondo le proiezioni modellistiche, l'aumento delle temperature atmosferiche provocherà una selezione termica: i chicchi di ghiaccio più piccoli si scioglieranno prima di toccare il suolo a causa dello strato d'aria calda superficiale, riducendo la frequenza complessiva dei fenomeni in diverse regioni. Contemporaneamente, la maggiore energia termica intensificherà le correnti ascensionali all'interno dei sistemi temporaleschi, permettendo la formazione di chicchi di dimensioni maggiori, capaci di sopravvivere alla caduta. Geograficamente, il rischio mostrerà un incremento in aree come l'Europa settentrionale, il Canada e gli Stati Uniti settentrionali, con una transizione temporale che vedrà i picchi dei fenomeni spostarsi progressivamente verso i mesi invernali.

Cancer’s most notorious growth protein may also be helping tumors survive chemotherapy.

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) report that MYC, a protein that is overactive [...]

By combining seismic, gravity and topographic data, a team of researchers from Italy, Switzerland, Germany and the United Kingdom found that several well-known subglacial basins in East Antarctica are part of a single fan-shaped province whose origins trace back to ancient continental stretching.
