    Can You Find the Critters?


    The puzzle contains six animals. However, only 17 percent of puzzlers can find all six animals, and if you can do it in ten seconds you can think yourself a genius.
    If bugs count as critters, I see eight.

    A Huge Comet Is Approaching Earth

    For the past 3 million years, Comet C/2017 K2 (PanSTARRS) has been falling toward the sun, a long, slow journey from the outer solar system. Finally, it's here. Michael Jaeger photographed it on June 25th from Martinsberg, Austria. The comet was about 9th magnitude. "Comet K2" caused a sensation when it was discovered in 2017. At first, it appeared to be one of the biggest comets in modern history, with a nucleus as much as 160 km wide. Hubble Space Telescope observations have since downsized the comet to 18 km. That is still big (typical comet nuclei measure 1 to 3 km).

    A most interesting question ...

    Controversy Grows Over Whether Mars Samples Endanger Earth



    The first cored sample of Mars rock (at center) inside a titanium sample collection tube from the Perseverance Rover


    Planetary scientists are eager to bring Red Planet rocks, soil and even air to Earth, but critics fear the risk of contaminating our world’s biosphere.

    Less than a decade from now, a spacecraft from Mars may swing by Earth to drop off precious cargo: samples of the Red Planet’s rocks, soil and even air to be scoured for signs of alien life by a small army of researchers right here on our terra firma. Orchestrated by NASA and the European Space Agency, this fast-paced, multibillion-dollar enterprise, formally known as the Mars Sample Return (MSR) campaign, is the closest thing to a holy grail that planetary scientists have ever pursued.

    In many respects, MSR is already well underway: NASA’s Perseverance rover is wheeling around an ancient river delta in Mars’s Jezero Crater, gathering choice specimens of potential astrobiological interest for future pick-up by a “fetch rover.” Then there’s the design and testing of the Mars Ascent Vehicle for lifting those retrieved samples into orbit for subsequent ferrying to Earth that is proceeding apace. But one crucial aspect of the project remains troublingly unresolved: How exactly should the returned samples be handled and at what cost, given the potential risk of somehow contaminating Earth’s biosphere with imported Martian bugs?

    So-far-elusive answers to these questions could profoundly shape not only MSR but also the hoped-for follow-on of sending humans to Mars’s surface. Can astronauts live and work there without inadvertently introducing earthly microbes to the Red Planet? And perhaps more importantly, can they eventually return home with the certainty that they carry no microscopic Martian hitchhikers?

    Interview with a Fully Conscious UFO Contactee Part One: The Awakening

    Quote Late one evening in January of 1973, fourteen-year-old Dolly Safran (who lived near the Everglades in Florida) looked outside her window to observe more than fifty star-like objects swarming overhead. As they began to dart off in different directions, one of these objects dropped down and hovered at treetop level behind her house. The object now revealed itself to be a solid metallic craft, with portholes. And through the portholes, Dolly was shocked to see two short, gray-skinned figures with large dark eyes and huge black heads. Aliens, she realized, and they were looking right at her! She turned to dive under her bed. At that moment, her room exploded in a brilliant blue light ...

    Let's Hear It For The Girl

    82-Year-Old Woman Runs 78 Miles in 24 Hours, Sets New World Record

    Barbara Humbert, an 82-year-old great-grandmother from Val d’Oise, France, recently set a new world record after running a whopping 125 km (78 miles) in 24 hours.





    At the end of last month, during the French Championships held in Brive-la-Gaillarde, 82-year-old Barbara Humbert broke the world record for the longest distance run in 24 hours for her age category. A German woman had run 105 kilometers (65.2 miles) on tarmac a few years back, and Barbara had her sights on improving that record by about 15 kilometers. She exceeded her own expectations, though, smashing through the old world record with a recorded distance of 125 kilometers covered in 24 hours. Not bad for an 82-year-old great-grandmother, aina?

    When I was 14, I bought a large rocket firework on July 4th. When we lit it, it took off high into the air and disappeared, but we never saw an explosion. I take full responsibility for the double crater. Add me to the science books.

    Scientists Discover “Holy Grail of Catalysis”

    Converting Methane Into Methanol Using Light





    An international team of researchers has developed a fast and economical method of converting methane, commonly called natural gas, into liquid methanol at ambient temperature and pressure. The approach uses visible light to drive the conversion in a continuous flow across a photocatalytic material. The research was led by scientists at the University of Manchester.

    Naturally occurring methane is a plentiful and valuable fuel, used for stovetops, ovens, furnaces, water heaters, kilns, automobiles, and turbines. However, methane is flammable and combustible and can also be dangerous due to the difficulty of extracting, transporting, and storing it.

    Methane gas is also a potent greenhouse gas, making it harmful to the environment when it is released or leaks into the atmosphere. Leading sources of atmospheric methane include fossil fuel production and use, rotting or burning biomass such as forest fires, agricultural waste products, landfills, melting permafrost, and cattle.

    Excess methane is commonly burned off, or flared, to reduce its environmental impact. However, this combustion process still produces carbon dioxide, which itself is a greenhouse gas.

    Industry has long sought an economical and efficient way to convert methane into methanol, a highly marketable and versatile feedstock used to make a variety of consumer and industrial products. Not only would this help to reduce methane emissions, but it would also provide an economic incentive to do so.

    Methanol is a more versatile carbon source than methane and is an easily transportable liquid. It can be used to make thousands of products such as solvents, antifreeze, and acrylic plastics; synthetic fabrics and fibers; adhesives, paint, and plywood; and chemical agents used in pharmaceuticals and agrichemicals. The conversion of methane into a high-value fuel such as methanol is also becoming more attractive as worldwide petroleum reserves dwindle.
