Nova galáxia descoberta

http://sci.esa.int/hubble/61075-hubble-fortuitously-discovers-a-new-galaxy-in-the-cosmic-neighbourhood-heic1903/

Citando:
"An international team of astronomers recently used the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to study white dwarf stars within the globular cluster NGC 6752. The aim of their observations was to use these stars to measure the age of the globular cluster, but in the process they made an unexpected discovery.

In the outer fringes of the area observed with Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys a compact collection of stars was visible. After a careful analysis of their brightnesses and temperatures, the astronomers concluded that these stars did not belong to the cluster – which is part of the Milky Way – but rather they are millions of light-years more distant.

Our newly discovered cosmic neighbour, nicknamed Bedin I by the astronomers, is a modestly sized, elongated galaxy. It measures only around 3000 light-years at its greatest extent – a fraction of the size of the Milky Way. Not only is it tiny, but it is also incredibly faint. These properties led astronomers to classify it as a dwarf spheroidal galaxy."

Tipos de ligação com o trabalho

Citando:
"Attachment style discussions typically arise in relation to the bond between parents and children or romantic partners, but in my work as a time management coach, I’ve seen that individuals can also “attach” differently in the workplace. Here’s how to identify your attachment style, and take control of how you manage your time."

Citando:
"As conclusões apontam que há mais de 99,99% de probabilidades de a amostra de sangue de ‘Spandau #7’ pertencer a um familiar próximo do parente vivo de Hess. Este resultado “apoia fortemente a hipótese” de que “o prisioneiro ‘Spandau #7’ era, de facto, Rudolf Hess”, destaca Jan Cemper-Kiesslich."

Mais detalhes da missão chinesa

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jan/04/china-change-4-moon-rover-jade-rabbit-2-sets-off

Citando:
"The moon’s far side is sometimes known as the dark side, although it is not darker than the near side in any literal sense. It undergoes the same phases of illumination by the Sun as the side facing Earth. But because the moon spins on its axis at exactly the same rate as it orbits Earth, one side remains permanently out of view.

It was only in 1959, when the first images of the far side were beamed back by the Soviet Union’s Luna 3, that intriguing differences were revealed. The far side is pockmarked by more craters and appears almost devoid of the seas of solidified lava, known as maria, that form the shadowy shape of a face that we see from Earth."
