On Christmas Day 1982, I unwrapped my first video game console, an Atari 2600. Although it was released in 1977, it was new to me, and I’m pretty sure the reason my parents bought it for me was because of a 2600 game released around that time: ET: The Extra-Terrestrial. My parents knew I was…
Type II radio bursts are generally observed below 400 MHz with narrow, slow-drifting fundamental and/or harmonic bands. Events with initial frequencies above 400 MHz are rarely reported (e.g. Pohjolainen et al. 2008). Such high-frequency type II may arise from the interaction of CMEs with surrounding dense structures in the corona, such as streamers, ray-like or…

The movie, which I called a “feel-good movie” in my review and a good tearjerker,” involves big dreams, big losses, and how music…
I left COP30 with a mix of emotions. On the positive side, it seems like health is really progressing as a lever for the climate agenda, with the Belém Health Action Plan, key health metrics in the global goal on adaptation and the potential of more funding for climate adaptation. But key components are still…
Almost any monitor can work with a Mac Mini. It does not need to be manufactured by Apple or have any official certification. There are reasons to use a cheap 1080p monitor with the Mac Mini, but most Mac users will want something a little more premium. As you can see from options like the…
As the lightest baryon in the Universe, many believe the proton is eternally stable. But if it is not, can we observe its decomposition? Continue reading Start with a bang! » #Ethan #observe #decay #proton

Although running eliminates stress and has many cardiovascular benefits, it is presumed to cause lower extremity injuries. Most studies related to running injuries have focused on runners’ knee health,…
