Trump was right!

The 24 members of the board are not scientists!
They are witches!!! And witches are bad people that we must burn in public!!!

Let's make USA barbarian again!

Trump is a real sham for USA, even for Human Kind.

A long as shareholders of the big companies are happy with their huge benefit, there is no real problem. Children should just adapt. After all this is the basics of evolution.

Let's make USA barbarian again!

PS: I really feel sorry for this writing, but I am afraid it is unfortunately describes well the sad reality.

Once again, there is nothing, except perhaps some advertising for iPhone.

I feel sorry for you, Artemis crew...

This is a clear demonstration of Human Stupidity, explaining why Artificial Intelligence is perceived by most as "intelligent".

Of course a machine can go faster than a human being. It can even fly, dive, go to space.

The 2 Voyagers are a real dream, but becoming for me like a nightmare.

It is amazing indeed to think about some pieces of technology is now so far from its origin.
I like to ask friends where they think is the oldest computer still operational and how old it is:-)
They never think about these 2 probes...

But, now I start to realize that the technology we currently use, the physics that we know, put horrible limits if we think about visiting other solar systems, inside Milkyway, but also outside.

We absolutely need to investigate further theoretical physics, in the hope to get a real breakthrough that could allow us explore our Universe (and perhaps Multiverse;-)). The current incremental improvement of current technologies is by far not good enough, despite all the advertising that it can get in the news.

Comparing this "record"to Apollo 13 is even an insult to Apollo 13's crew Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert and Fred Haise. Apollo 13 was never meant to break a distance record. It is however famous for the extraordinary capability of its crew, thanks also to all the staff on the ground, to have saved a desperate mission.

What Artemis II is doing is actually quite disappointing. And NASA, probably under the ridiculous pressure of Trump, should be ashamed to try to make so much noise about things that have been already achieved almost 60 years ago.

I watched from APOD the trajectory of Artemis II. Well, its crew is nothing more than 4 passive passengers, sitting on a ballistic container.

I actually feel sorry for its crew. But much more extraordinary achievements have been made almost 60 years ago.

Unfortunately, I fully agree with this summary. Keep in mind also that today's technology is by far much more advance than 60 years ago, when women, hidden in the basement, were making crucial calculation for the success of Apollo.

But I try to forget this and focus on the dream that was born almost 60 years ago, and that is coming back now with the hope it will go further.

I noticed something more or less in the middle of the "Hello World" picture.
It reminds me a little bit the ISS.
Could it be the ISS or just some reflection, or something completely different?

I am so excited to realize human beings are going back to the moon. I was afraid it was just a bad joke happening on April 1st;-) But, no... ISS is nice, an incredible achievement, but it is too close to our home, few 100 km. I agree that our moon is also extremely close to home. But still, it remains a symbolic, important milestone. Perhaps, now, I could say that my dream is shining again.
But,
There is absolutely nothing exceptional here: This has been already achieved almost 60 years ago, with much, much less technology available.
Anyway, I wish all the best to the crew and to the staff staying on the ground, whose contribution is vital to these expeditions.
Thank you to revive my dreams:-)

Is this just bad luck, after all USA is not that big compared to Earth surface, or a sign of God?

This is probably the main reason why people can be fascinated by "Artificial Intelligence".
That being said, I guess it is probably not that difficult anyway to track the location of aircraft carriers using "simple' satellites that are above us for so many decades already.
Next question: Will there be an "intelligent" soldier doing the same exercise in a submarine?

When people in a country decide to chose a criminal as president, there is clearly an issue about the education system in that country. Of course, a criminal elected as president will decide to destroy even further the education system. The only way for clever people would be to emigrate from such a country.
Unfortunately, the education issue is not specific to USA, although in other countries it is not (yet) as bad as in USA.
We can of course underline that democracy does not exist in USA, despite all what some people there might want to pretend. USA started as a barbarian country killing whatever could be killed, stealing whatever could be stolen, it does not hesitate to use mass destruction weapons. It is correct that it tried to become a bit more civilized, but thanks to Trump "Let's make USA barbarian again!".

Could this be a sign of a Big Crunch?
According to our current knowledge, it looks clear that our Universe (U_n) is expanding, and its expansion rate might be accelerating. Although this last point seems to be questionable according to recent studies.
Anyway, we can not exclude a Big Crunch scenario.
Should it happen, our Universe, U_n, and all its galaxies will start to shrink, up to a point where it might somehow "explode", a bit like a Supernova, but initiating a new Big Bang that will create a new Universe, U_n+1. It could be that at the moment of the "explosion", some galaxies from U_n where not yet at the "explosion" point and therefore did not contribute to the new Big Bang, a bit like the matter ejected during the explosion of a Supernova.
In this case, people from U_n+1 could see galaxies created during U_n, that are therefore older than the age of U_n+1.
So, these specific "old galaxies" observed by JWST could have been created before "our" Big Bang (called Cosmonava in the subject), in Universe_n-1.

This looks a little bit like the infamous "concentration camps" few decades ago, with however some differences...

Back then, people were forced to go to these camps to work (very) hard. But they got free tattoos. They did not have to pay for a place to stay, to get food, water, shower...

This article about USA seems to describe more or less the same concept, except that people are free to accept to go and work hard or not. But, they do have to pay to get their tattoos, to get a place to stay, to eat, drink and have shower.

"USA, the country of freedom" :-(

If only people could learn from history and become perhaps civilized...

I do want to beileve (yes, I love X-Files;-). But...

For many, many years I have carried a camera with me with the hope I could take some pictures of "something strange", be it in the sky or on land, or whatever.

Unfortunately, I did not see anything tht could be considered as strange, despite the fact I did travel quite a lot.

When I heard about the book from Luis Elizondo, "Imminent" actually through slashdot, I had to buy it. The advertising was really good.

Unfortunately, the book is by far not convincing for the existence of anything "alien". It contains even few misleading information like the "suggestion" that it is possible to travel faster than light (using quantum physics to justify).

This book from Mr Elizondo looks to me more like a way to make money for him, taking benefit of his professional history, and perhaps because of possible internal problems with his management, that can help to try to impress people.

This article refers also to a movie "The age of disclosure", again involving Mr. Elizondo. So probably nothing new there neither.

So the former analyst of Bank of England should not provide any recommendation based on the Mr. Elizondo's "information", unless of course this analyst belongs to Mr. Elizondo's private club, aiming at getting money from people.

That being said, I still want to believe. I am just waiting to get serious evidence, not just partly hidden information from supposed secret documents.
