NASA rover discovers out-of-place 'Skull' on Mars, and scientists are baffled​


https://www.livescience.com/space/m...lace-skull-on-mars-and-scientists-are-baffled

NASA's Perseverance Mars rover has come across several unusual rocks that don't seem to be in their original place.

Perseverance is currently searching for signs of ancient life in the hills and rocky outcrops along the rim of the Jezero Crater — a barren, bowl-shaped depression north of the Martian equator that scientists suspect held a huge lake billions of years ago. Since December 2024, the rover has been trekking down a tall slope called Witch Hazel Hill, which scientists hope will provide clues about Mars' past climate.

On April 11, Perseverance paused at a visually distinct geological boundary where light and dark rock outcrops meet. Here, one particular rock, which scientists nicknamed "Skull Hill," stood out against the surrounding light-toned, rock-riddled surface due to its dark color, angular shape and pitted texture, according to a NASA blog post.

The region, called Port Anson, contains several such rocks that may have been transported from elsewhere, scientists said. Known as "floats," these loose rocks likely traveled vast distances billions of years ago when Mars possessed a warmer, wetter environment with rivers, lakes and potentially even oceans. As the water receded and softer surrounding material eroded over eons, the more resilient rocks remained perched on the Martian soil.

"We've found a few of these dark-toned floats in the Port Anson region," the post noted. "The team is working to better understand where these rocks came from and how they got here."

The mystery of Skull Hill

According to the post, the pits on Skull Hill may have formed in a couple of ways. Small pieces within Skull Hill itself might have become loose and eroded away, leaving the holes. Another possibility is that Martian winds, carrying tiny dust and rock particles, could have acted like sandpaper, slowly wearing away the rock's surface and creating the pits.

The dark tone of Skull Hill and similar rocks could suggest they are meteorites, but recent analysis of their chemical data from Perseverance's SuperCam instrument indicates their composition doesn't match that of a typical meteorite.

Pope Francis looks well and fit at Easter, but next day
after Easter he died in his sleep.

Think is his job, wish completed, can go peacefully

Rare red sprite lightning in Tibet dazzles social media​

61e8d41751684091e059f6e17b5bc5eb3856eb44ed57e5f4139baaf16cfc10f0

https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/e...prite-lightnings-in-tibet-dazzle-social-media

A rare red lightning phenomenon illuminated the dark sky above Tibet over the weekend, setting social media on fire.

Known as a red sprite, it is an electrical discharge that occurs above thunderclouds, between 40km and 80km above the ground.

Lightning flashes usually go downwards from the clouds to the ground, according to the BBC.

But like a shot from a flare gun, a sprite goes in the other direction, appearing like backwards lightning.

According to National Geographic, atmospheric nitrogen gas gives the bursts their distinctive red glow.

Chinese photographer Dong Shuchang, who captured the rare sight on May 31, wrote on Chinese social media platform Weibo that the first time he caught a similar occurrence was in May 2022.

“I decided to produce a slow motion close-up video and hope that more people will be able to witness this magical phenomenon in our magical skies.”

Strange signals detected from Antarctic ice seem to defy laws of physics. Scientists are searching for an answer​

https://edition.cnn.com/2025/06/20/science/anomalous-signals-antarctica-neutrino-detectors


Scientists are trying to solve a decade-long mystery by determining the identity of anomalous signals detected from below ice in Antarctica.

The strange radio waves emerged during a search for another unusual phenomenon: high-energy cosmic particles known as neutrinos. Arriving at Earth from the far reaches of the cosmos, neutrinos are often called “ghostly” because they are extremely volatile, or vaporous, and can go through any kind of matter without changing.

Over the past decade, researchers have conducted multiple experiments using vast expanses of water and ice that are designed to search for neutrinos, which could shed light on mysterious cosmic rays, the most highly energetic particles in the universe. One of these projects was NASA’s Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna, or ANITA, experiment, which flew balloons carrying instruments above Antarctica between 2006 and 2016.

It was during this hunt that ANITA picked up anomalous radio waves that didn’t seem to be neutrinos.

The signals came from below the horizon, suggesting they had passed through thousands of miles of rock before reaching the detector. But the radio waves should have been absorbed by the rock. The ANITA team believed these anomalous signals could not be explained by the current understanding of particle physics.

in what way not simple?

This was not caused by wind. Look at the trees. The trees are not even moving. The pole looked like something was pressing down on it when it fell. It was pushed down by something and not the wind. Don’t lie to us.
Officials blamed strong gusts for the collapse of multiple high-voltage power lines near Las Vegas… but the footage tells a different story.

No visible high wind. No debris flying. Just massive infrastructure crumbling like matchsticks.

So what really caused it?

– A silent directed energy weapon?
– Underground seismic activity?
– Sabotage ahead of the 4th of July?

They want you to believe it was just weather.
But once again, the video doesn’t match the narrative.

Something’s not adding up.

It will become worse.
We will own nothing.
We will need approval to use anything.
We will be become farm animals very soon.
something like hdb flat buy but actually not technically own it cos must return it. and if want to do renovation must get approval one like that ah? aiyah an la we sinkies well trained already so shld be ok in the new world order :s13:
