The European Space Agency, the Planck Space Observatory had delivered spectacular views of the previously perceived plain white Milky Way galaxy. Costing at about 795 million dollars just to design and launch, the observatory was able to take immeasurable images of the Milky Way from 2009 to 2013, collecting images and creating a mosaic of the galaxy.
The majestic view of the galaxy was brought to life in never-before-seen way. Planck’s instruments were able to capture, in other wavelengths, images of magnetic fields, high energy molecules, interstellar gas and dust, which used differently colored filters. Thus, the agency has disproved some erroneous information last year, involving the declaration of gravitational wave existence in CMB radiation.
Evolutionary researchers from the Michigan State University (MSU) discovered that having Mr. or Ms. Okay is far better than waiting for the ‘perfect’ one. The entire study involved the so-called “evolution of risk aversion”, suggesting that people could either decide to mate with the first, even potentially inferior companion or choose to wait and risk never mating at all.
Sausalito-based Marine Mammal Center (MMC), a nonprofit organization has responded to nearly 120 calls concerning stranded sea lion pups off the California coast, from San Francisco to San Diego. The pups are abandoned by their mothers and are undernourished. The event is no longer a surprise to many experts as such event happened in previous years, although the number of stranded pups recently is becoming alarming. Any disease had been ruled out.
