Bobble in Moscow, January 25-26, 2010!

Bobby McFerrinís latest expansion of the known universe: Bobble, an improvised opera with a wordless libretto, will be presented in Moscow on January 25 and 26, 2010 by the Musical Olympus Foundation This new project gives Bobby a chance to collaborate with other voices, welcoming local talent and influences. In this 90-minute a cappella stage show, Bobby and a cast of 16 singers, reflecting a panoramic vista of influences and traditions, re-enact the plight of the citizens of Babel and their struggle to find a common language. Through music, spontaneously composed and conducted by Bobby, they learn to listen and to hear each other.

    A long time in the making Curiosity landed in Gale Crater on August 6 2012. More than 12 years later the rover has driven over 21 miles 34 kilometers to ascend Mount Sharp which is within the crater. The feature’s many layers preserve millions of years of geological history on Mars showing how it shifted from a wet to a dry environment. celer network Perhaps one of the most valuable samples Curiosity has gathered on its mission to understand whether Mars was ever habitable was collected in May 2013. The rover drilled the Cumberland sample from an area within a crater called Yellowknife Bay which resembled an ancient lake bed. The rocks from Yellowknife Bay so intrigued Curiosity’s science team that it had the rover drive in the opposite direction to collect samples from the area before heading to Mount Sharp. Since collecting the Cumberland sample Curiosity has used SAM to study it in a variety of ways revealing that Yellowknife Bay was once the site of an ancient lake where clay minerals formed in water. The mudstone created an environment that could concentrate and preserve organic molecules and trapped them inside the fine grains of the sedimentary rock. Freissinet helped lead a research team in 2015 that was able to identify organic molecules within the Cumberland sample. The instrument detected an abundance of sulfur which can be used to preserve organic molecules; nitrates which are essential for plant and animal health on Earth; and methane composed of a type of carbon associated with biological processes on Earth. “There is evidence that liquid water existed in Gale Crater for millions of years and probably much longer which means there was enough time for life-forming chemistry to happen in these crater-lake environments on Mars” said study coauthor Daniel Glavin senior scientist for sample return at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt Maryland in a statement.

    Curiosity rover makes ‘arguably the most exciting organic detection to date on Mars’ bungee exchange The NASA Curiosity rover has detected the largest organic molecules found to date on Mars opening a window into the red planet’s past. The newly detected compounds suggest complex organic chemistry may have occurred in the planet’s past — the kind necessary for the origin of life according to new research. The organic compounds which include decane undecane and dodecane came to light after the rover analyzed a pulverized 3.7 billion-year-old rock sample using its onboard mini lab called SAM short for Sample Analysis at Mars. Scientists believe the long chains of molecules could be fragments of fatty acids which are organic molecules that are chemical building blocks of life on Earth and help form cell membranes. But such compounds can also be formed without the presence of life created when water interacts with minerals in hydrothermal vents. The molecules cannot currently be confirmed as evidence of past life on the red planet but they add to the growing list of compounds that robotic explorers have discovered on Mars in recent years. A study detailing the findings was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The detection of the fragile molecules also encourages astrobiologists that if any biosignatures or past signs of life ever existed on Mars they are likely still detectable despite the harsh solar radiation that has bombarded the planet for tens of millions of years. “Ancient life if it happened on Mars it would have released some complex and fragile molecules” said lead study author Dr. Caroline Freissinet research scientist at the French National Centre for Scientific Research in the Laboratory for Atmospheres Observations and Space in Guyancourt France. “And because now we know that Mars can preserve these complex and fragile molecules it means that we could detect ancient life on Mars.”

    Everyone is talking about Greenland. Here’s what it’s like to visit cow fi A few months ago Greenland was quietly getting on with winter as the territory slid deeper into the darkness that envelops the world’s northerly reaches at this time of year. But President Donald Trump’s musings about America taking over this island of 56000 largely Inuit people halfway between New York and Moscow has seen Greenland shaken from its frozen Arctic anonymity. Denmark for whom Greenland is an autonomous crown dependency has protested it’s not for sale. Officials in Greenland meanwhile have sought to assert the territory’s right to independence. The conversation continues to intensify. A contentious March 28 visit to a US military installation by Usha Vance the second lady accompanied by her husband Vice President JD Vance was the latest in a series of events to focus attention on Trump’s ambitions for Greenland. The visit was originally planned as a cultural exchange but was shortened following complaints from Greenland Prime Minister Mute B. Egede. Had the Vances prolonged their scheduled brief visit they would’ve discovered a ruggedly pristine wildernesses steeped in rich Indigenous culture. An inhospitable icecap several miles deep covers 80 of Greenland forcing the Inuit to dwell along the shorelines in brightly painted communities. Here they spend brutally cold winters hunting seals on ice under the northern lights in near perpetual darkness. Although these days they can also rely on community stores. The problem for travelers over the years has been getting to Greenland via time-consuming indirect flights. That’s changing. Late in 2024 the capital Nuuk opened a long-delayed international airport. From June 2025 United Airlines will be operating a twice-weekly direct service from Newark to Nuuk. Two further international airports are due to open by 2026 — Qaqortoq in South Greenland and more significantly in Ilulissat the island’s only real tourism hotspot.

    While the Cumberland sample may contain longer chains of fatty acids SAM is not designed to detect them. But SAM’s ability to spot these larger molecules suggests it could detect similar chemical signatures of past life on Mars if they’re present Williams said. convex finance “Curiosity is not a life detection mission” Freissinet said. “Curiosity is a habitability detection mission to know if all the conditions were right … for life to evolve. Having these results it’s really at the edge of the capabilities of Curiosity and it’s even maybe better than what we had expected from this mission.” Before sending missions to Mars scientists didn’t think organic molecules would be found on the red planet because of the intensity of radiation Mars has long endured Glavin said. Curiosity won’t return to Yellowknife Bay during its mission but there are still pristine pieces of the Cumberland sample aboard. Next the team wants to design a new experiment to see what it can detect. If the team can identify similar long-chain molecules it would mark another step forward that might help researchers determine their origins Freissinet said. “That’s the most precious sample we have on board … waiting for us to run the perfect experiment on it” she said. “It holds secrets and we need to decipher the secrets.” Briony Horgan coinvestigator on the Perseverance rover mission and professor of planetary science at Purdue University in West Lafayette Indiana called the detection “a big win for the whole team.” Horgan was not involved the study. “This detection really confirms our hopes that sediments laid down in ancient watery environments on Mars could preserve a treasure trove of organic molecules that can tell us about everything from prebiotic processes and pathways for the origin of life to potential biosignatures from ancient organisms” Horgan said. Dr. Ben K.D. Pearce assistant professor in Purdue’s department of Earth atmospheric and planetary sciences and leader of the Laboratory for Origins and Astrobiology Research called the findings “arguably the most exciting organic detection to date on Mars.” Pearce did not participate in the research.

    Arctic auroras ethena For getting around during winter the Inuit here nowadays prefer snowmobiles although they still keep their sled dogs. During winter they’ll offer intrepid visitors wrapped up warm against the deep-freeze temperatures dog-sledding jaunts. These can last either an hour or be part of expeditions over several days sometimes with the added experience of learning how to build an igloo. Sisimiut on the west coast and Tasilaq in the southeast are active winter centers for dog sledding. Winter’s most stellar attraction though is northern lights watching. With little urban light pollution Greenland is a dark canvas for spectacular displays and aurora borealis-watching vacations are becoming more popular. Staying outdoors Greenland is developing a reputation among adventure enthusiasts: from long-distance skiing expeditions and heliskiing on the icecap to hiking the 100-mile-long Arctic Circle Trail from Kangerslussuaq where firearms need to be carried for warning shots in case of polar bear encounters. Life is definitely changing here. The climate crisis is eating away at its icecap and Greenland may well end up as a pawn in a game of geopolitical chess. But for now the bright glare of international attention should shine a favorable light on one of the wildest travel destinations on Earth. Travel writer Mark Stratton is an Arctic specialist who has traveled to Greenland six times and counting. He’s marveled at the aurora borealis sailed to Disko Island dog-sledded with the Inuit and once got stuck in an icefloe.
