Science,Astronomy : Hubble captures incredible image of Cygnus supernova blast wave
The beautiful photo shows just a small portion of the blast wave that remains in the wake of the astonishing astronomical event. In the millenia since the supernova the remnant has expanded 60 light-years from its center. Interestingly the remnant continues to expand at the impressive speed of 350 kilometers per second. As the star shrapnel from the explosion mixes with low-density interstellar material it creates the magnificent veil-like structure captured in the photo. The Hubble Space Telescope has beamed back countless breathtaking photos…

Science,Health : Scientists see downsides to high-profile Covid-19 vaccines from Russia, China
Scientists see downsides to high-profile Covid-19 vaccines from Russia and China. CHICAGO (REUTERS) High-profile Covid-19 vaccines developed in Russia and China share a potential shortcoming: They are based on a common cold virus that many people have been exposed to, potentially limiting their effectiveness, some experts say. CanSino Biologics' vaccine, approved for military use in China, is a modified form of adenovirus type 5, or Ad5. The company is in talks to get emergency approval in several countries before completing large-scale tr…
#Health#Warning : Petting zoos create a diverse reserve of multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria as highly virulent pathogens to visitors and specially children !
Petting zoos could potentially transmit highly virulent drug-resistant bacteria to visitors New research presented at this year's European Congress of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases (ECCMID) in Amsterdam, Netherlands (13-16 April) shows that petting zoos can create a diverse reservoir of multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria, which could lead to highly virulent drug-resistant pathogens being passed on to visitors. The study is by Professor Shiri Navon-Venezia of Ariel University, Ariel, Israel and colleagu…

Health : People at rest burn more energy in afternoon than in morning
A study published on Thursday in the journal Current Biology found that when at rest, people burn 10 percent more calories in the late afternoon and early evening than in the early morning hours. It helped to explain why irregular eating and sleeping due to shift work may make people more likely to gain weight. " The fact that doing the same thing at one time of day burned so many more calories than doing the same thing at a different time of day surprised us, " said lead author of the paper Kirsi-Marja Zitting of t…
#Science : China wants to put a big fake moon in orbit to reflect sunlight back down at night
The Moon is great, but apparently it's just not enough for the city of Chengdu in China. Not satisfied with the meager light the Moon reflects back down to Earth at night, scientists in the region plan to launch a satellite that will actually reflect sunlight back down to Earth and turn night into day... sort of. The satellite is effectively a giant mirror that will redirect sunlight back down on Chengdu even after the Sun sets. The spacecraft will be roughly eight times brighter than the Moon, according to the Chengdu Ae…
