‘Mega comet’ 60 miles wide is coming in 2031
This discovery could be one for the record books, leading some to call it a “mega comet.” It is estimated to be between 60 and 230 miles wide, which could make it the largest comet ever discovered. To put the size in context, Halley’s Comet is about 3.5 miles wide, Long Island is 118 miles long and part of the Florida peninsula is 160 miles across.
I guess it will not even visible by naked eye, as it's supposed to pass solar system along distant trajectory behind Saturn orbit.
If you're out in the unforgiving wilderness of Mars, you can easily estimate how long until the sun sets using your fingers. Except that you would have to use six fingers on Mars.

This effect may not be so shocking, as it improves blood perfusion and oxygenation of tissues (similarly to healthy life style), whereas (in my theory) the cancer results as a response of organism to a low oxygen levels (by switching to an evolutionary older metabolism of yest). Permanent consummation of reductive sugars (corn syrup) may not be the best idea from this perspective. Note that many spices (curcuma from turmeric or capsaicin from chili peppers) also have proven anticancer effects. Too bad that people who don't die of cancer usually die of stroke or by some heart disease - and viagra increases risk of both.

This is similar problem like with artificially fed "controversy" about profylaxis of airborne viruses by essential oils. Of course, that essential oils cannot prohibit infection once it entered human body, but they could significantly reduce probability, that it will happen. But stance of doctors (including psychiatrists) is occupationally driven as it relies on influx of patients, so that they want to keep monopoly on both cure both prophylaxis.

People spend more than half their day doing busy work, according to 10,000+ survey.
The annual work index, conducted in October 2021, found that people spent 58% of their day doing “work about work,” including communicating about work, searching for information, switching between apps, managing shifting priorities and chasing status updates.
Why migrating to another planet is a stupid and implausible idea
Swiss astrophysicist Michel Mayor, whose work detecting exoplanets recently earned him a share in the Nobel prize for physics, says humans will never migrate beyond our own solar system. Maybe it’s time we started taking this whole “climate change” thing seriously.
Just try to imagine we are settling and colonizing Antarctica instead of Mars. And Antarctica is still one thousand-times cheaper and more accessible than Mars.

Today on The Corbett Report we explore Solutions: Open Science. In the face of the crisis of science, it is easy to throw our hands up and watch as the old guard of the scientific establishment circles the wagons and goes back to business as usual. But there are real solutions to these problems, and we all—scientists and non-scientists alike—have a part to play in implementing them.

New Study Shows mRNA Vaccines Suppress The Immune System And Allow Deadly Diseases To Thrive about study Innate Immune Suppression by SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccinations: The role of G-quadruplexes, exosomes and microRNAs
People have two types of immunity in essence: innate and evolved one. Innate immunity applies for children, whose cells are dividing fast as it doesn't require learning of immune cells the particular pathogens. Instead of this, another type of immune cells simply kill every infected cell without asking. Unfortunately what m-RNA vaccines just do is the labelling healthy cells as infected ones by stipulating production of viral protein inside of them.
New Study Shows mRNA Vaccines Suppress The Immune System And Allow Deadly Diseases To Thrive
According to the study’s authors, mRNA vaccinations have now been shown to down regulate critical pathways related to cancer surveillance, infection control, and cellular homeostasis. In short, the experimental jabs expose the body to neurodegenerative disease, myocarditis, immune thrombocytopenia, Bell’s palsy, liver disease, impaired adaptive immunity, increased tumorigenesis, and DNA damage

The Sun Is Stranger Than Astrophysicists Imagined
Gamma rays, the highest frequency waves of light, radiate from our nearest star seven times more abundantly than expected. Stranger still, despite this extreme excess of gamma rays overall, a narrow bandwidth of frequencies is curiously absent. The unexpected signal has emerged in data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, a NASA observatory that scans the sky from its outpost in low-Earth orbit. As more Fermi data have accrued, revealing the spectrum of gamma rays coming from the sun in ever-greater detail, the puzzles have only proliferated. The surplus light, the gap in the spectrum, and other surprises about the solar gamma-ray signal potentially point to unknown features of the sun’s magnetic field, or more exotic physics.
Lattice Energy LLC: LENR experiment conducted by The Aerospace Corporation repeated Japanese NEDO projects reported excess heat results - June 6 2018.
20 grams of Ni:Pd nanoparticles has been embedded in μ-sized ZrO2 particles. After conditioning the cells, both were heated to near 300°C in the hydrogen atmosphere for a period of 1000 hours (40 days). During this period, the test cell registered 7.5% more power (approximately 1 W) than the input power. The control cell measured approximately 0.05 W of excess power. The error in the excess power measurement was ± 0.05 W. Assuming that the active material is the 5.44 g of Ni+Pd yields a specific energy of 635 MJ/kg.
For comparison, the highest specific energy of a hydrocarbon fuel (methane) is 55.5 MJ/kg. The highest chemical specific energy listed (see Energy Density topic in Wikipedia) is 142 MJ/kg for hydrogen compressed to 700 bar. Based on these results, it is unlikely that the source of heat energy was chemical in origin.

Women's research plummets during lockdown - but articles from men increase
Many female academics say juggling their career with coronavirus childcare is overwhelming. Women also tend to procrastinate more when working from homeoffice - the social media represent distraction for them rather than platform for collaboration.

The Romantic Venus We Never Knew - has Venus used to be as fit for life as Earth?
Venus’s atmosphere has proportionately much more deuterium than Earth’s does. This skew is a sign that the planet’s hydrogen has gradually escaped to space; deuterium, being heavier, leaks out more slowly than its lighter cousin, so that a difference builds up over time. Winding the clock backward, Venus must once have had much more hydrogen which is to say, much more water.
Venus lacks Moon and its proximity of Sun wouldn't make life formation too much easier there.

Anna V., (a retired particle physicist) has posted comments about the funding of physics:
Bottle of Lies: The Inside Story of the Generic Drug Boom Generics, through reverse-engineering, are produced to act like the parent, brand drugs from which they are derived. They are not identical to these, but are meant to be bio-equivalent.
Vitamins that are reducing agents can be pro-oxidants. Vitamin C has antioxidant activity when it reduces oxidizing substances such as hydrogen peroxide, however, it can also reduce metal ions which leads to the generation of free radicals through the Fenton reaction: 2 Fe2+ + 2 H2O2 → 2 Fe3+ + 2 OH· + 2 OH− 2 Fe3+ + Ascorbate → 2 Fe2+ + Dehydroascorbate The metal ion in this reaction can be reduced, oxidized, and then re-reduced, in a process called redox cycling that can generate reactive oxygen species and free radicals, which could damage DNA and promote mutagenicity by itself. In this respect it may be significant, that some chemotherapy agents (Carboplatin and cisplatin) are itself based on heavy metal ions with catalytic effects promoting free radicals formation. The book Dumping Iron by P.D. Mangan reveals a lot about the dangers of iron and confusion regarding measuring and establishing healthy levels.

Rigor Mortis: How Sloppy Science Creates Worthless Cures, Crushes Hope, and Wastes Billions American taxpayers spend $30 billion annually funding biomedical research, but over half of these studies can't be replicated due to poor experimental design, improper methods, and sloppy statistics. Bad science doesn't just hold back medical progress, it can sign the equivalent of a death sentence for terminal patients.
The fundamental thing about quaternion, octonions etc. is, they involve extradimensions of sort. The quaternion-based Maxwell theory anticipated quantum and scalar wave effects, which the current Maxwell theory cannot. So there are good reasons for utilizing the octonion math within contemporary physics. The opposite problem is, such a vector math is too dependent on right-angled Cartesian system. And once the number of dimensions increases, the things stop to become right angled anymore - the extradimensions violate Euclidean geometry too. The octonion-based theory will be still usable, but overly complicated, over-parametrized and as such suboptimal.
This is btw also the fact, which ruined string theory too and a general problem of every hyperdimensional theory: they apply only in flat 3D space-time following the Cartesian system and their validity scope is thus constrained to very subtle phenomena, which don't violate the dimensionality of space-time in which they reside too much (i.e. dark matter fluctuations). Even the best brains on the planet don't know what to do with it (a renormalization problem of switching extrinsic and intrinsic perspectives). As famous blogger L. Motl noted the octonion based math is the same case of fancy but void formal approach, like this one criticized recently by Hossenefelder - who indeed had the string theory of L. Motl on mind instead... ;-)
