Hello, Rogue Nation. I haven't had anything worthy to post in a while, since we are all stuck in an information loop, but I ran across this and thought it post worty; and pretty cool.

Large’ creature — with 20 arms — found lurking in Antarctic sea. 

So, we've found a new species swimming around that is a around near the Antarctic. A strawberry shaped squid looking creature with 20 arms.

Thought yall might dig this.
Fromt the article:

"Researchers trawled the Southern Ocean on several research expeditions between 2008 and 2017, according to a study published July 14 in the journal Invertebrate Systematics. They were searching for a group of “cryptic” sea animals known as Promachocrinus, or Antarctic feather stars.

Antarctic feather stars are “large” animals that can live anywhere from about 65 feet to about 6,500 feet underwater and have an “otherworldly appearance” when swimming, researchers said. Although both are invertebrate ocean animals, feather stars are distinct from more well-known sea star"s."


   

This thing is creepy looking. I hope the picture posted for you all, but there is a picture in the article.  Sorry, I believe it's some click bait, but I find a lot of interesting news hidden away in them.

The Antarctic strawberry feather star was found throughout the Southern Ocean from depths ranging from about 215 feet to about 3,840 feet, researchers said.

The new species was identified based on its body shape and DNA analysis, the study said.

The research team included Emily McLaughlin, Nerida Wilson and Greg Rouse. Researchers also documented several other species of Anatarctic feather star, including three more new species.

Pretty neat, IMO. A new deep water species classified lurking around near the southern Indian ocean area.

Quote:What are the goals and history of US military intervention in Niger? The first time most Americans heard of US operations in the west african country was when a group of US Army Special Forces were ambushed during a patrol on October 5th, 2017. The ambush near the village of Tongo Tongo was the deadliest incident for US forces in Africa since the 1993 Battle of Mogadishu. As a result the American public was both confused and outraged at the lack of information about US military missions on the African continent. Written by: Chris Cappy & Diego Aceituno Video Edited by: Michael Michaelides This prompted a series of congressional inquiries and a Department of Defense investigation. These have had lasting consequences that reach all the way to the events unfolding in Niger today. The reports ended up blaming the individual soldiers and lower levels of command instead of higher ups taking responsibility. So what really happened in Niger? Why was the Pentagon accused of lying about the incident? Was there a CIA cover up? And why were over 800 US troops even in Niger in the first place? What were American interests were they really protecting? I’m your average infantryman Chris Cappy you're watching Task & Purpose let's analyze that. Niger is a large landlocked country in West Africa that is home to over 25 million people. 80% of the country is covered by the Sahara desert which means most of the population live in the Sahel. The Sahel This is a narrow band of transitional desert-savanna climate along the south that crosses through Niger and its neighboring countries. The dry landscape and frequent droughts make for a harsh environment. This has led to the country having the unfortunate distinction of ranking highest in the world on the UN Poverty Index. Niger is a former French colony that gained independence in 1960, but government instability, corruption, and ethnic divisions made for a rocky 50 year period. This all culminated in a military coup in 2010 that returned the country to some semblance of parliamentary democracy for a period.

When life in the Fermilab turns to art.

Quote:Scientists at Fermilab close in on fifth force of nature

'Scientists near Chicago say they may be getting closer to discovering the existence of a new force of nature.
They have found more evidence that sub-atomic particles, called muons, are not behaving in the way predicted
by the current theory of sub-atomic physics. Scientists believe that an unknown force could be acting on the muons.

More data will be needed to confirm these results, but if they are verified, it could mark the beginning of a revolution
in physics. All of the forces we experience every day can be reduced to just four categories: gravity, electromagnetism,
the strong force and the weak force. These four fundamental forces govern how all the objects and particles in the
Universe interact with each other.


The Device.                                                                                  The Goal.

The findings have been made at a US particle accelerator facility called Fermilab. They build on results announced in
2021 in which the Fermilab team first suggested the possibility of a fifth force of nature. Since then, the research team
has gathered more data and reduced the uncertainty of their measurements by a factor of two, according to Dr Brendan
Casey, a senior scientist at Fermilab. "We're really probing new territory. We're determining the (measurements) at a
better precision than it has ever been seen before."

In an experiment with the catchy name 'g minus two (g-2)' the researchers accelerate the sub-atomic particles called
muons around a 50-foot-diameter ring, where they are circulated about 1,000 times at nearly the speed of light. The
researchers found that they might be behaving in a way that can't be explained by the current theory, which is called
the Standard Model, because of the influence of a new force of nature.

Although the evidence is strong, the Fermilab team hasn't yet got conclusive proof. They had hoped to have it by now,
but uncertainties in what the standard model says the amount of wobbling in muons should be, has increased, because
of developments in theoretical physics. In essence, the goal posts have been moved for the experimental physicists...'

Quote:The researchers believe that they will have the data they need, and that the theoretical uncertainty will have narrowed
in two years' time sufficiently for them to get their goal. That said, a rival team at Europe's Large Hadron Collider (LHC)
are hoping to get there first.

Dr Mitesh Patel from Imperial College London is among the thousands of physicists at the LHC attempting to find flaws
in the Standard Model. He told BBC News that the first people to find experimental results at odds with the standard
model would be one of the all time breakthroughs in physics.

"Measuring behaviour that doesn't agree with the predictions of the Standard Model is the holy grail for particle physics.
It would fire the starting-gun for a revolution in our understanding because the model has withstood all experimental tests
for more than 50 years." Fermilab says that its next set of results will be "the ultimate showdown" between theory and
experiment that may uncover new particles or forces.

So what is the Standard Model and why is getting an experimental result that doesn't quite fit in with its predictions such
a big deal? Everything in the world around us is made from atoms - which in turn are made from even smaller particles.
These interact to create the four forces of nature: electricity and magnetism (electromagnetism), two nuclear forces and
gravity.

Their behaviour is predicted by the standard model, and for fifty years it has predicted their behaviour perfectly, with no
errors whatsoever. Muons are similar to electrons which orbit atoms and are responsible for electrical currents, but they
are about 200 times as massive. In the experiment they were made to wobble, using powerful, superconducting magnets.

The results showed that the muons wobbled faster than the standard model said it should. Prof Graziano Venanzoni, of
Liverpool University, who is one of the leading researchers on the project, told BBC News that this might be caused by
an unknown new force. "We think there could be another force, something that we are not aware of now. It is something
different, which we call the 'fifth force'.

"It is something different, something we don't know about yet, but it should be important, because it says something new
about the Universe." If confirmed, this would represent arguably one of the biggest scientific breakthroughs for a hundred
years, since Einstein's theories of relativity. That is because a fifth force and any particles associated with it are not part
of the Standard Model of particle physics.

Researchers know that there is what they describe as "physics beyond the Standard Model" out there, because the current
theory can't explain lots of things that astronomers observe in space. These include the fact that galaxies are continuing to
accelerate apart after the Big Bang that created the Universe, rather than the expansion slowing down. Scientists say the
acceleration is being driven by an unknown force, called dark energy.

Galaxies are also spinning faster than they should, according to our understanding of how much material is in them.
Researchers believe it's because of invisible particles called dark matter, which again are not part of the Standard Model.
The results have been published in the Journal Physical Review Letters...'

Looks like yet another green company that received millions of dollars from government programs has gone kaput !!

This time it's Electric Bus Company Proterra.

They were heavily promoted by high rank Democrats since Biden took office on Jan 2021.

In fact current Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm was on their board of directors and she owned millions of dollars of stock even while in her position and promoting the government money !!!!

Huge corruption at high levels !!!!

Wild exposures.

Let's see who got to keep all that free money

Electric Bus Company Proterra Backed Heavily by Biden Administration Files for Bankruptcy 

Quote:Proterra, an electric bus company that received heavy backing from President Joe Biden’s administration, filed for bankruptcy on Monday.

The Burlingame, California-based EV company has been a source of controversy for the Biden administration because Biden’s Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm hyped the company in her official capacity despite the fact that she previously served on Proterra’s board and held over a million dollars worth of stock in the company even after she was confirmed as the head of Biden’s Energy Department.

Biden has heavily promoted Proterra throughout his presidency, at one point saying the company would help America own “the future” if it kept on track.  ( )


Three months into his presidency, Biden held a virtual tour of the electric bus company’s South Carolina factory to promote his $1.9 trillion infrastructure plan.

Full Title: "Loch Ness monster hunters gear up for the biggest Nessie hunt in decades"
From the CBC in Canada.

Quote:Monster hunters from around the globe will have their eyes fixed on Scotland's Loch Ness later this month in what might be the largest Nessie hunt since the 1970s.

The Loch Ness Centre, in partnership with a group called Loch Ness Exploration and any willing volunteers will scan the water — visually and using available technology — for signs of large life.
"For us, it's about getting as many eyes on the water as possible," Paul Nixon, general manager of the Loch Ness Centre, told As it Happens guest host Peter Armstrong.
The last search of this size, led by the now-defunct Loch Ness Investigation Bureau, happened in 1972.

A mix of manpower and modern technology could be the keys to success this time around, according to Nixon.

Rather than the film cameras of decades ago, the hunters will deploy thermal imaging drones each night in hopes of capturing heat spots, which may be signs of life. They're also dropping hydrophones — underwater microphones — to depths of 18 metres to see what they can hear.

The James Webb Space Telescope was conducting its usual business — staring at objects of scientific interest across the cosmos — when it accidentally captured something hilariously familiar in the distant universe.
Is that a giant question mark?

??? NASA, ESA, CSA. Image Processing: Joseph DePasquale (STScI)
It sure looks like one. Is the universe trying to tell us something? Or ask us something? Or is it just laughing at us?
Actually, scientists think this may be a pair of galaxies merging together. They just happen to make a question-mark shape, as seen from Webb's perspective.
"Their interactions may have caused the distorted question mark-shape," representatives of the Space Telecope Science Institute told Space.com.

What are you playing at, James Webb Space Telescope? NASA GSFC/CIL/Adriana Manrique Gutierrez; Insider
"This may be the first time we've seen this particular object," STScI said. "Additional follow-up would be required to figure out what it is with any certainty."
It could also be a single galaxy with an odd shape, but a merger seems like a good explanation to Matt Caplan, an assistant professor of physics at Illinois State University.
After all, galaxies collide and merge all the time.

"The two distinct features could easily be merging galaxies in the background, with the upper part of the question mark being part of a larger galaxy getting tidally disrupted," Caplan told Space.com. "Given the color of some of the other background galaxies, this doesn't seem like the worst explanation. Despite how chaotic mergers are, double lobed objects with curvy tails extending away from them are very typical."
The bigger picture
Webb wasn't looking for a question mark. Here's the larger picture the telescope captured:

The full picture shows what Webb was looking at in the first place: a pair of actively forming stars, called Herbig-Haro 46/47. NASA, ESA, CSA. Image Processing: Joseph DePasquale (STScI)
Beautiful, isn't it? NASA released this image on July 26, saying in a statement that it shows the "antics" of two young stars that are still actively forming.
"Look for them at the center of the red diffraction spikes," NASA wrote in the release. "The stars are buried deeply, appearing as an orange-white splotch."
The pair of stars, known as Herbig-Haro 46/47, are growing as they feed off of gas and dust that surrounds them in a disk. The disk itself is invisible, but its shadow appears in two dark cone-shaped regions next to the stars.
The pink-orange lobes that dominate the picture are material that the stars have been shooting out as they grow over thousands of years.
NASA added that the pair of stars is an "important object to study because it is relatively young – only a few thousand years old. Star systems take millions of years to fully form. Targets like this give researchers insight into how much mass stars gather over time, potentially allowing them to model how our own sun, which is a low-mass star, formed."
