(OP) User ID: 16476021 United States06/22/2020 09:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.livescience.com (secure)] Scientists just sampled the most pristine air on Earth. Here's what they found. To discover what is actually happening in clouds over the Southern Ocean, a small army of atmospheric scientists, including us, went to find out how and when clouds form in this remote part of the world. What we found was surprising — unlike the Northern Hemisphere oceans, the air we sampled over the Southern Ocean contained almost no particles from land. This means the clouds might be different from those above other oceans, and we can use this knowledge to help improve the climate models. Clouds are made of tiny water droplets or ice crystals, or often a mixture of the two. These form on small particles in the air. The type of particle plays a big role in determining whether a liquid droplet or ice crystal forms. These particles can be natural — like sea spray, pollen, dust or even bacteria — or from human sources like cars, stoves, power plants and so on. To the untrained eye, an ice cloud and a liquid cloud look much the same, but they have very different properties. Ice clouds reflect less sunlight, precipitate more and don't last as long as liquid clouds. It matters to the weather — and to climate models — what kinds of clouds are around. Much to our surprise, the bacteria were essentially all marine species that live in the Southern Ocean. We found almost no land-based bacteria. If the bacteria were from the ocean, then so were the cloud-forming particles. This was the answer we were looking for. |

(OP) User ID: 16476021 United States06/22/2020 09:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why some physicists really think there's a 'mirror universe' hiding in space-time A series of viral articles claimed that NASA had discovered particles from another parallel universe in which time runs backward. These claims were incorrect. The true story is far more exciting and strange, involving a journey into the Big Bang and out the other side. In order to understand how The Daily Star arrived at its bizarre, viral claim, it's necessary to understand the claims of two separate papers from 2018. The first paper, by Latham Boyle, a physicist at The Perimeter Institute in Alberta, Canada, and his colleagues, proposed a mirror universe — a reflection of our universe across time. It was published December 2018 in the journal Physical Review Letters (after an appearance on the arXiv server in March that year). "I think nobody else understands the full sweep of what they have composed," said John Learned, a University of Hawaii astrophysicist and the co-author of a second paper, which builds on Boyle's theory. Boyle's work is a kind of expansion pack meant to plug holes in the theory that tells the dominant origin story of the universe: Lambda-Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM). For instance, measurements of expansion don't line up across time, so that measurements made of this expansion based on data from the early universe don’t jive with measurements using data from the modern universe. In addition, ΛCDM can't explain why matter exists at all, since it predicts that matter and antimatter would have formed at equal rates after the Big Bang, and annihilated each other, leaving nothing behind. Here’s how Boyle’s team sees their theory: Imagine today's universe as a wide, flat circle, sitting on top of yesterday's slightly smaller circle, which sits on top of the yet-smaller circle of the day before that, Boyle said. Stack up all the circles from today back to the Big Bang, and you'd end up with a cone standing on its point end. How dr Neruda lol |

It is said the great majority of, if not all, religions focus on the power to generate and regenerate. [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] Xunantunich (Mayan pronunciation: is an Ancient Maya archaeological site in western Belize, about 70 miles (110 km) west of Belize City, in the Cayo District. Xunantunich is located atop a ridge above the Mopan River, well within sight of the Guatemala border – which is a mere 0.6 miles (1 km) to the west.[1] It served as a Maya civic ceremonial center in the Late and Terminal Classic periods to the Belize Valley region.[2] At this time, when the region was at its peak, nearly 200,000 people lived in Belize. The stelae is both phallic and commemorated the warlords victories as the warlords and their ancestors being portrayed as the source of fertility of all Maya, including the peasantry, as the maize producers, were the real source of the groups fertility. -warlords and the maize men info Awkward for both types of men lol Last Edited by Siyo on 06/22/2020 12:28 PM |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59971679 [link to en.wikipedia.org] Xunantunich’s name means "Stone Woman" in the Maya language (Mopan and Yucatec combination name), and, like many names given to Maya archaeological sites, is a modern name; the ancient name is currently unknown. The "Stone Woman" refers to the ghost of a woman claimed by several people to inhabit the site, beginning in 1892. She is dressed completely in white, and has fire-red glowing eyes. She generally appears in front of "El Castillo", ascends the stone stairs, and disappears into a stone wall. Lol |

That’s more than a century of continuous archaeological work at the site. And, never before have we found a tomb. Well, this tomb is also remarkable in other ways, it is one of the largest burial chambers we have ever found,” Awe said. The tomb is five to eight meters deep. The date found is really funny. I wonder if elongated. I just watched the video above and noticed the jade lol Noting |

It is 35 kilometres (22 mi) from the Guatemalan border. Calakmul was one of the largest and most powerful ancient cities ever uncovered in the Maya lowlands. Calakmul was a major Maya power within the northern Petén Basin region of the Yucatán Peninsula of southern Mexico. Calakmul administered a large domain marked by the extensive distribution of their emblem glyph of the snake head sign, to be read "Kaan". Calakmul was the seat of what has been dubbed the Kingdom of the Snake[1] or Snake Kingdom. This Snake Kingdom reigned during most of the Classic period. |

(OP) User ID: 16476021 United States06/22/2020 07:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Four years of excavations have unearthed an immense water engineering project created in China about 5,100 years ago. This predates the oldest known comparable system; which is from Mesopotamia and dates to around 4,900 years ago. Quoting: China....The immense hydraulic system is said to have supported the ancient city of Liangzhu with an estimated size of about 300 ha of structures. Its discovery provides a new aspect to the story of the Liangzhu and is also rewriting the history of early Chinese engineering. [link to www.ancient-origins.net] [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] Quoting: Fancypantz The Wufang Shàngdì ("Five Forms of the Highest Deity"), or simply Wudi ( "Five Deities") or Wushén ( "Five Gods") are, in Chinese canonical texts and common Chinese religion, the five main deities proceeding from the universal God. They have cosmological significance as they describe space as a tán , "altar".[note 1] According with the Three Powers ( Sāncái) they have a celestial, a terrestrial and a chthonic form. The Han Chinese identify themselves as the descendants of the Red and Yellow Deities. They are associated to the five colors, the five phases of creation, the five key planets of the Solar System and the five constellations rotating around the celestial pole, the five sacred mountains and five directions of space (their terrestrial form), and the five Dragon Gods (Lóngshén) who represent their mounts, that is to say the material forces they preside over (their chthonic form). odin territory, lol [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] The water vascular system is a hydraulic system used by echinoderms, such as sea stars and sea urchins, for locomotion, food and waste transportation, and respiration.[1] The system is composed of canals connecting numerous tube feet. Echinoderms move by alternately contracting muscles that force water into the tube feet, causing them to extend and push against the ground, then relaxing to allow the feet to retract. You know, younger canal system in Cerros was based on the sea born(maritime trade) import of obsidian and jade. Trade route shifts was said as cause of decline. |

(OP) User ID: 16476021 United States06/22/2020 08:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hawkings says: “Scientists cannot talk about human memory because they don’t know how the brain works in detail. Computer memory they do know how it works in the arrow of time for computers is the same as that for humans. If it were not, One can make a killing on the stock exchange by having a computer that would remember tomorrow’s prices. A computer memory is basically a device containing elements that can exist in either of two states. A simple example is an abacus. An abacus works in a similar way to a computer memory. Each bead can be in one of two positions. To change the position of the bead, a certain amount of energy is required. Before an item is recorded in a computer‘s memory, The memory is in a disordered state, with equal probabilities for the two possible states. After the memory interacts with the system to be remembered, it will definitely be in one state or the other, according to the state of the system. So the memory has passed from a disordered state to an ordered state. As they say for man there is two paths. In order to make sure that the memory is in the right state, it is necessary to use a certain amount of energy to move the bead or to power the computer for example. “ |
