Inexplicable spiral nightglow spotted on Mars, Solar Minimum conditions in effect

Another mystery and this one seems to be tied to the diminishing sunspots.

>>> “The light is “nightglow.” We have it here on Earth, too, where it’s called “airglow.” During the day, ultraviolet radiation from the sun breaks apart compounds in the upper atmosphere. At night, the atoms reassemble, glowing as they put themselves back together again. On Earth, airglow looks like the aurora borealis; people can actually see it. On Mars, the emission is ultraviolet, invisible to the human eye.”

24,000 year old mammoth ivory carving reveals sophisticated ancient technology of craftsmen

To my knowledge, the earliest sign of “Civilisation” falls around 8500 years ago. These scientists are excavating some statues that were made between 20000 and 45000 years ago. Is it possible that these people who were living at that time, were civilized in another manner? Creating a statue seems pretty civilized to me.

>>> “We studied several mammoth ivory items found at Ust-Kova: a mammoth figurine, a seal sculpture, and bracelets and beads of different sizes that were created around 24 thousand years ago.”

Fifty new planets confirmed in machine learning first

I spent my whole youth dreaming about space and its possibilities. The adventure, the discoveries, the science, were all attractive to me. Today, I still think that space is our “next frontier”, but I do not think that human beings are designed to live in it.

We are also not designed to live on other planets. We have too much of our  DNA  invested on the planet Earth.
Maybe, someone might be able, one day, to prove that human beings were “planted” on earth, but in the meantime, I will keep the opinion that we are not meant to live somewhere else.

The job seems perfect for AI and robots though. We should focus on doing our exploration with robots. There is no need to take big risks and sometimes, at some tasks, robots can do a better job.

We are still in control of robots and we will always be. I am not afraid of that. We might experience some bumps but we will prevail, only because we have creative reason and the power to think about our thinking, one level higher, ad infinitum.

>>> “Once built and trained the algorithm is faster than existing techniques and can be completely automated, making it ideal for analysing the potentially thousands of planetary candidates observed in current surveys like TESS.”

Study of heart attack victims showed most had normal LDLs

What else is new?
He made a lot of money with his writing but I think he is interesting.
Sometimes a little bit too much on the hypochondriac side, but he is a great source of information. I am a little bit hypochondriac myself. These days, it is safer to be a little bit hypochondriac.

COVID19 – What have we learned?

The best of this month, so far. Another very good analysis of this mediatic campaign. Very well written and documented. He is making sense without falling into deep paranoia. Just asking questions and providing some good information.

>>> “We have learned that people who are asymptomatic can, cannot, can, cannot, can, cannot, can… spread the virus.
That the accuracy of PCR antigen testing is brilliant, useless, brilliant, useless, brilliant, useless.
That false positive tests are impossible, common, impossible, common, impossible, common.
That facemasks are useless, necessary, useless, necessary, useless… absolutely necessary.
We also know that some people are, are not, are, are not are, naturally immune. ”

“I even gritted my teeth and wrote the book Doctoring Data in order to help people understand the endless games and manipulations that are played with research studies. ”
