Our Oceans, Lakes And Rivers Don’t Come From Icy Meteorites, Say Scientists
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin This week we discovered that all the water on Earth is older than the Sun , but we still don’t know where it came from. Not from “melted” meteorites, suggests a new study published today in Nature , which analyzed meteorites that until recently were in space since the solar system’s formation 4.5 billion years ago. “Melted” in this context means that a meteorite comes from an asteroid that are igneous—which have been melted into magma. Such meteorites regularly fall to Earth. Despite there being a common belief among astronomers that the origin of water on Earth’s meteorites (and possibly comets) the scientists discovered that these melted meteorites are among the driest extraterrestrial materials ever measured. “We wanted to understand how our planet managed to get water because it’s not completely obvious,” said Megan Newcombe , Assistant Professor of Geology at University of Maryland. “Getting water and … [Read more...] about Our Oceans, Lakes And Rivers Don’t Come From Icy Meteorites, Say Scientists
‘Sustainable’ Electric Cars Are Getting Junked Over Minor Damage
Insurers are being forced to write off many electric vehicles with only minor damage to battery packs, sending the batteries to scrap yards and hindering the climate benefits of going electric, Reuters reported. Battery packs typically represent roughly half the cost of an electric vehicle, sometimes costing tens of thousands of dollars, often making it more economical for insurers to consider a car as totalled than replace a battery pack, according to Reuters. While many carmakers, including Ford and GM, told Reuters that their battery packs were repairable, many are unwilling to share key data with third-party insurers to help assess damage. (RELATED: Biden’s Energy Secretary Calls Going Green ‘The Greatest Peace Plan’ In History) “The number of cases is going to increase, so the handling of batteries is a crucial point,” Christoph Lauterwasser, managing director of the research institute Allianz Center for Technology, told Reuters. “If you throw away the vehicle at an … [Read more...] about ‘Sustainable’ Electric Cars Are Getting Junked Over Minor Damage

House GOP Demands Manhattan DA Testify Over Trump Criminal Probe: ‘Unprecedented Abuse Of Prosecutorial Authority’
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Topline Top House Republicans sent a letter to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Monday demanding he testify about his investigation into former President Donald Trump’s role in an apparent hush money payment made to a porn star in the final days of the 2016 campaign, which the GOP paints as a politically motivated probe relying on an untested legal theory ahead of his potential indictment. Key Facts The letter called the investigation an “unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial authority,” claiming the DA’s office has spent years looking for an excuse to charge Trump and has now settled on a “novel legal theory untested anywhere in the country.” Trump predicted over the weekend he will be indicted Tuesday for allegedly orchestrating a $130,000 payment to porn star Stormy Daniels to keep her from publicly disclosing an alleged affair between the two—Bragg could claim the payment was an illegal political … [Read more...] about House GOP Demands Manhattan DA Testify Over Trump Criminal Probe: ‘Unprecedented Abuse Of Prosecutorial Authority’
Here’s What Will Happen If Trump Is Arrested (Yes, He’ll Probably Get A Mugshot)
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Topline Former President Donald Trump may be indicted as soon as this week in Manhattan on charges stemming from his alleged “hush money” payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, an unprecedented event for a former president that would lead to him being arraigned in court—but not held in custody or being forced to end to his presidential campaign. Key Facts When Will Trump Be Indicted? That’s still unclear—the Manhattan grand jury hearing the case still has at least one more witness to hear from on Monday, and while they could vote on charges as soon as Monday, it could also come later depending on how things go. What Will Trump Be Arrested For? It’s expected that any charges against Trump will be for falsifying business records tied to the hush money payments to Daniels—as he allegedly reimbursed ex-attorney Michael Cohen for paying Daniels through the Trump Organization, labeling the charges as … [Read more...] about Here’s What Will Happen If Trump Is Arrested (Yes, He’ll Probably Get A Mugshot)
Busting That Chinese Spy Balloon Is Harder Than You Think (Updated: ‘Well That Was Easy’)
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin The Pentagon has been tracking a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon which flew over sensitive areas in Montana in recent days, apparently the latest of several such incursions. President Biden reportedly proposed that the intruder be shot down , but the Pentagon opposed this action, citing the risk of civilian casualties. In fact, bringing down this type of balloon may be extremely difficult, as it is likely to be highly resistant to the available weapons. It may look fragile, but the sheer size and construction of a stratospheric balloon makes it all but invulnerable. There is also the problem of getting to it. Such balloons ride high in the stratosphere , far above the airliners. They do this to take advantage of the change in wind direction with altitude to steer themselves to where they are needed like sailing ships, then circling above a point of interest. The U.S. military has its own stratospheric spy … [Read more...] about Busting That Chinese Spy Balloon Is Harder Than You Think (Updated: ‘Well That Was Easy’)
