They are paraphrasing from the original news release, but poorly.
The gas cloud is being hit with so many photons of light from the stars that it is shining extremely brightly
Photons of light from the stars, as opposed to light from other things.
Generally poorly worded, but I can see what they are trying to convey. But they could have done it better.
Best to use targeted probes to explore things we haven’t before. Ask different questions and if they leave the solar system, good on them. But I’d prefer orbital data satellites around all the ocean moons in the outer solar system.
I still like to pretend Capaldi was the actual Doctor on In The Loop. Chameleon Arc style!
Garter snakes were long thought to be non-venomous, but discoveries in the early 2000s revealed that they produce a neurotoxic venom. Despite this, garter snakes cannot seriously injure or kill humans with the small amounts of comparatively mild venom they produce and they also lack an effective means of delivering it. In a few cases, some swelling and bruising has been reported. They do have enlarged teeth in the back of their mouth but their gums are significantly larger and the secretions of their Duvernoy’s gland are only mildly toxic.
Evidence suggests that garter snake and newt populations share an evolutionary link in their tetrodotoxin resistance levels, implying co-evolution between predator and prey. Garter snakes feeding on toxic newts can also retain those toxins in their liver for weeks, making those snakes poisonous as well as venomous.
Nah, I’ll just watch Iron Lung, thanks.
Ahh, so you make yours the way I used to. An entire oz of good good from the dude 3 doors over, made into cannabutter, then made into a single batch of brownies.
Blackout brownies was such a good week.
Indeed. Only death will cure what ails our society. /s
Malaria has killed a quarter of all humans who ever lived.
I prefer Gambusia affinis. Close second is Gambusia holbrooki.
Oh no! It me!
You probably aren’t far off. Add in a little collective apathy for flavor and you’ve got a viable head cannon.
Isn’t… Isn’t he already dead?? Like 25 years ago?
So, who’s gonna be Robespierre?
I swear autism is the default state and combustion based pollutants, asbestos, lead, and other contaminants cause the so called normative states.
The amount of old people I have met that claim to be normal and very clearly show signs of lead poisoning is far higher than any other constituency of old people.
I don’t trust anyone born before '75 to be fully there upstairs.
Nerds are wizards. And wizards love drugs.
Bruh, half the drugs were invented by nerds. The other half were discovered by plant nerds.
Any headline pumping site, I always go find the original cited article. I trust the researchers who did the thing over someone who has a minor understanding and a good domain name.
Tho, I do like the articles on phys.org. They often seem to have direct quotes from the authors of the research, like they actually spoke to someone. But they are less space focused and more general science news from across the spectrum.
