UGC 1810: Wildly Interacting Galaxy from Hubble via Domingo Pestana








"What's happening to this spiral galaxy? Although details remain uncertain, it surely has to do with an ongoing battle with its smaller galactic neighbor! The featured galaxy is labelled UGC 1810 by itself, but together with its collisional partner is known as Arp 273! The overall shape of UGC 1810 -- in particular its blue outer ring -- is likely a result of wild and violent gravitational interactions! This ring's blue color is caused by massive stars that are blue hot and have formed only in the past few million years!

The inner galaxy appears older, redder, and threaded with cool filamentary dust! A few bright stars appear well in the foreground, unrelated to UGC 1810, while several galaxies are visible well in the background! Arp 273 lies about 300 million light years away toward the constellation of Andromeda! Quite likely, UGC 1810 will devour its galactic sidekick over the next billion years and settle into a classic spiral form! Have a great day everyone, and I'll see you in class!"

Why Your Grandmother Is an Evolutionary Mystery



This is one of the weirdest mysteries of human evolution: Why do we have grandmas? From menopause to our slow maturation and super-long lifespans, humans are quite unique in the animal kingdom, the vast majority of whom do not have grandmas. Could this be our evolutionary secret weapon? Or is she just a surprise side effect of living long lives?

Why is NASA's Perseverance taking pictures of this maze on Mars?





If you've spent any time perusing the carousel of raw images from NASA's Perseverance Mars rover, you might have stumbled across an odd subject: a tiny, intricate maze etched into a small plate, photographed over and over again, every day and every night.




Close-up

Why is the Perseverance rover so obsessed with this little labyrinth? It turns out the maze is a calibration target — one of 10 for Perseverance's Scanning Habitable Environments with Raman & Luminescence for Organics and Chemicals instrument, otherwise known for its fun acronym, SHERLOC.

This Sherlock Holmes–inspired tool is designed to detect organic compounds and other minerals on Mars that could indicate signs of ancient microbial life. To do that accurately, the system must be carefully calibrated, and that's where the maze comes in.

Located on the rover's seven-foot (2.1-meter) robotic arm, SHERLOC uses spectroscopic techniques — specifically Raman and fluorescence spectroscopy — to analyze Martian rocks. In order to ensure accurate measurements, it must routinely calibrate its tools using a set of reference materials with specific properties. These are mounted on a plate attached to the front of the rover's body: the SHERLOC Calibration Target.

"The calibration targets serve multiple purposes, which primarily include refining the SHERLOC wavelength calibration, calibrating the SHERLOC laser scanner mirror, and monitoring the focus and state of health of the laser," said Kyle Uckert, deputy principal investigator for SHERLOC at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

The target is arranged in two rows, each populated with small patches of carefully selected materials.

The top row includes three critical calibration materials: aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) on sapphire discs; the UV-scattering material Diffusil; and Martian meteorite SaU008, whose mineral makeup is already known and helps align wavelength calibration with real Martian geology.

The maze is made of chrome-plated lines just 200 microns thick (about twice the width of a human hair) printed onto silica glass. "There are no repeating patterns and the spectrum of the chrome plating is distinct from the underlying silica glass," says Uckert. That makes it possible to measure the laser's focus and accuracy with extreme precision.

And yes, SHERLOC's sidekick is called WATSON.

Alan Turing's Seminal Papers, Almost Destroyed by a Shredder, Head to Auction





A treasure trove of Alan Turing's papers, including his own personal copy of his PhD dissertation, is going up for auction June 17 after narrowly avoiding destruction.

The papers were "offprints," or copies of papers distributed in small batches within academia. They include not only Turing's signed dissertation, but also 1937's "On Computable Numbers," considered the first computer programming manual, and 1952's "The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis," Turing's last major published work.

Turing was an English mathematician, codebreaker and one of the first computer scientists. The newly discovered papers were given by his mother, Ethel Turing, to her son's friend, fellow mathematician Norman Routledge, according to Rare Book Auctions, the company handling the sale.

After Norman's death in 2013, one of his daughters stuck the papers in her own loft. When she moved into a care home almost a decade later, one of her daughters found the papers and considered shredding them. But she asked around the family and decided to get them appraised instead, taking them along to specialists Rare Books Auctions in a carrier bag.

"Nothing could’ve prepared me for what I was about to find in that carrier bag," Rare Books Auction director Jim Spencer said in a statement.

The auction house is offering the papers for individual sale. They are expected to fetch a price of 40,000 to 60,000 British pounds ($54,220 to $81,324) for the copy of "On Computable Numbers," which introduced the idea of a "universal computing machine," and a similar price for the signed dissertation.

“We even have Turing’s first published paper from 1935 – Equivalence of Left and Right Almost Periodicity – which is simply a single sheet of paper," Spencer said.




Personal papers and photos from the Alan Turing auction

Ethel Turing made her gift to Routledge in May 1956, nearly two years after Turing died at age 41 on June 7, 1954. After a brilliant career at Princeton University, where he earned his doctorate, and Bletchley Park, the U.K.'s code-breaking agency, Turing worked at the U.K.'s National Physical Laboratory and the University of Manchester, where he designed some of the first forerunners of today's computers.

But in 1952, while reporting a burglary, he acknowledged a sexual relationship with another man to police and was persecuted under an 1885 law that criminalized homosexual acts as "gross indecency." To avoid prison, he was forced to submit to chemical castration — doses of estrogen that had a feminizing effect. He was also denied entry into the United States.

Turing was found dead in his home of cyanide poisoning, which may have been a result of suicide or an accident resulting from a chemistry experiment he was running at the time. His case inspired a 2009 apology from the British government and a 2017 law, known as the "Alan Turing Law," that retroactively pardons people convicted under historical legislation in England and Wales for homosexual acts.

The Amazing Case of Sergei Ponomarenko, Time Traveler in Kiev





In 2006, a man named Sergei Ponomarenko was wandering around lost in Kiev, Ukraine. He was wearing a strange outfit and had a camera in his hand as if he were a tourist.

Two policemen asked him to identify himself.

He claimed that he came from the past, that he had left his house to take some photos when he observed a UFO, and while photographing it he suddenly found himself in the future.

The man showed them legitimate official Soviet Union identification, of more than 50 years of antiquity. His name was Sergei Paramarenko.





The cops treated him like he was insane. He was arrested and taken to a psychiatric clinic in Kyiv. There, Dr. Pablo Kutrikov interviewed Sergei.

The consultation of April 23, 2006, was recorded.

P. Kutrikov: How about you tell me something about yourself?

S. Paramarenko: My name is Sergei Paramanenko, I was born in the city of Kyiv on June 16, 1932.

P. Kutrikov: Yes? But I would assure you that you are not older than 30 years.

S. Paramarenko: I am 25 years old.





The doctor asked Sergei how it was that he appeared in the year 2006 and then Sergei told about how he was trying to take a picture of a UFO and somehow teleported to this place.

P. Kutrikov: But can you remember how you appeared in our time?

S. Paramarenko: It was daytime and I wanted to go for a walk in the city, I took my camera but when I left my house I saw a strange object that had a bell shape, and it was very strange, and it was flying in a strange way. It is difficult to explain what I was seeing. It might be better to look at the photos from my camera and then maybe we can find the answer … “

Dr. Kutrikov decided he wanted to see the photos. But there was a difficulty. The techniques of development for old cameras like that of Sergei were different from those used in the 21st century.

So they had to look for an expert in photography, Vadim Poisner, who was surprised when he discovered that the roll had not been manufactured since the 70s.

It was never possible to explain how that roll could be preserved in such good condition for more than half a century, but Poisner managed to reveal all the photographic roll that showed images of the city of Kiev of the decade of the 1950s.

The camera also had a photo of a woman about 25 years old and another image where Sergei Paramarenko was, even in the same outfit.

The photograph that caught the most attention was where the UFO appeared in the form of a bell, as described by Sergei before developing the photographs.

This interview was recorded at 10:39 am on April 26, 2006.

P. Kutrikov: Here are the photos revealed … they are from your camera. I am especially interested in this photograph … take a look, please.





S. Paramarenko: Now you are convinced that I am telling the truth. I so far do not understand what this object is and how something like that happened to me at the same moment when I took the picture and I went down to look at the camera and somehow I showed up in this year.

After talking to Dr. Kutrikov, Sergei went to his room. The clinic’s security camera captured the moment when he entered the room but he was never seen leaving. Somehow Paramarenko disappeared. The only way out was always watched. The windows in the room had bars. It was impossible to escape.

So they investigated and the police investigated Sergei. They confirmed that indeed during the era of the Soviet Union this man existed and that he was declared missing in 1960.

Dr. Jon T. Kosloski serves as the Director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). Prior to that, Dr. Kosloski held technical and leadership positions within the Research Directorate of the National Security Agency (NSA). In that capacity, he led advanced mission-oriented research in the fields of networking and computing, and served as a subject matter expert in the area of Free Space Optics, advising various DoD agencies. In addition to his optics research and crypto-mathematics, Dr. Kosloski invented an advanced language-agnostic search engine and served at the DoD Special Communications Enterprise Office.

Dr. Kosloski received Bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics and Physics from California State University, San Bernardino, and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University. The focus of his Doctoral research was the invention of novel devices that leverage principles from quantum optics to receive very weak phase-encoded signals. After completing the theoretical analysis of two new optical receiver designs, Dr. Kosloski worked with scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology to demonstrate the abilities of his designs to achieve record sensitivities. Dr. Kosloski is also a graduate from NSA’s Cryptanalysis Development Program.

The UFO Propaganda Machine - Eighty Years Of Lies & Disinformation : WEAPONIZED : Episode #78
6/10/2025
Jeremy Corbell

Former AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick is still carrying a torch for his lost love. Although his tenure at the UFO agency was brief, the lovesick Dr. Kirkpatrick can’t let go of his former paramour - flying saucers.

In the first part of a multi-segment propaganda piece, Dr. K. unleashed his pent-up fury about those sexy flying machines in a preposterous fusillade of invective and falsehoods, telling the Wall Street Journal that every UFO incident in the last 78 years was actually secret U.S. technology.

Kirkpatrick (and his AARO successor) admitted that the DOD has lied to the American public, misled Congress, and deceived high-ranking military officers over decades. So, after three-quarters of a century of fibs, disinfo, and outright prevarications, should we now accept the latest round of lies as truth?

Oh sure.

In this episode of Weaponized, Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp respond to the laughable - and sad - attempt to further muddy the UFO waters. Also, the podcast is joined by two esteemed observers of UFO politics, including bestselling novelist and screenwriter Ernie Cline (Ready Player One) and podcaster/rock and roll entrepreneur Dan Cleary, who shared their experiences at the recent Contact in the Desert mega-conference.
