Accusations that it is doing so have a malicious ulterior motive: advancing antisemitism.

Ubisoft has kicked off the weekend with a brand-new playtest for its highly anticipated first-person shooter‚ XDefiant‚ but the latest round of testing is already drawing a mixed reception from its player base.

Archaeologists have discovered the burial of a woman with a rare &;quot;porcelain gallbladder&;quot; who was interred at the Mississippi State Lunatic Asylum's cemetery 100 years ago.

Tiktoker Matthew Able found a 1978 Disney World Park ticket in his family’s desk drawer and shared his discovery‚ which he assumed to be a souvenir‚ with his TikTok followers. “It’s been collecting dust since before I was born‚” he said while inspecting it with a magnifying glass. He “always assumed it was an old family keepsake until I realized that it’s never been used and there’s no expiration date. Which means I’ve either found the golden ticket here‚ or I’m delusional thinking that the Mouse is going to let me use it to get inside nearly half a century later.” Man tries entering Disney World with 46-year-old ticket @matthewables I tried getting into Disney World using a 46 year old ticket #disneyworld #disney #themepark #funny #fyp ♬ original sound – Matthew Ables Matthew flew to Orlando‚ Florida‚ and took his fans on a virtual journey with him. As he approached the ticketing booth at the Magic Kingdom‚ he got a bit nervous as the woman at the stand “aggressively” stamped “VOID” on his coupon and went her way. However‚ she soon circled back and gave him a yellow ticket which he used to gain entrance into the park. RELATED: Man Uses 46-Year-Old Park Ticket To Gain Entry Into Disney World Although Matthew arrived with a 46-year-old ticket which cost $8 back then—which would have been $164 today—it was wholesome that the park acknowledged the keepsake and let him in. Some of his fans noted in the comments that it was not unusual for visitors to show up with old tickets. “I used to work Magic Kingdom Guest Relations‚” a user named Allison wrote. “This exact scenario would happen a few times a week&;#33;” Pexel After technically getting into Disney World with the old booklet which read‚ “10 Adventures in Walt Disney World The Magic Kingdom” and “Admit one entry to The Magic Kingdom‚” Matthew confessed that he “can’t believe this actually worked‚” while approaching the Disney World entrance castle. His video went viral with over 9.2 million views in the first week‚ and nearly a million likes. TikTok video screenshot He also inspired some viewers to check back on their old ‘80s and ‘90s tickets as well. “What&;#33; My grandparents have like 10 of those&;#33; thought it was a souvenir all these years‚” someone gushed in realization. “My whole childhood‚ my parents used old tickets they had. It’s always been so cool they still accept them‚” another added‚ with some other TikTok user calling them “treasured relic I do hope they put it up like a museum piece.” “It is something from the past‚” they said.

It was 1903 that the Wright brothers made the first successful self-propelled flight. Launching themselves to history‚ they set the foundations for transatlantic flights‚ supersonic flight and perhaps even the exploration of the Solar System. Now we are on the precipice of travel among the stars but among the many ideas and theories‚ what is the ultimate and most effective way to explore our nearest stellar neighbours&;#63; After all‚ there are 10‚000 stars within a region of 110 light years from Earth so there are plenty to choose from.  It’s not just the stars that entice us to explore beyond our Solar System. Ever since the first exoplanet discovery in 1992 we have been discovering more and more alien worlds around distant stars. The tally has now reached over 5‚500 confirmed exoplanets and they too demand our attention as we reach out among the stars. There have been many ideas and technologies proposed over the past few years but to date‚ even Proxima Centauri (the nearest star system to our own) remains out of reach.  In his thesis recently published‚ lead author Johannes Lebert from the Technische Universit&;auml;t M&;uuml;nchen (TUM) attempts to develop a strategy‚ based on existing interstellar probe concepts and knowledge of nearby star systems. Lebert was driven by the exoplanet discoveries that continue at pace and the development and interest‚ both commercially and technically in interstellar probes. Not only does he explore the technologies but he also looks at the returns too.  Artist’s illustration of HD 104067 b‚ which is the outermost exoplanet in the HD 104067 system‚ and responsible for potentially causing massive tidal energy on the innermost exoplanet candidate‚ TOI-6713.01. (Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech) In the strategy developed in the thesis he looks at the two main objectives which are duration of the mission and the returns. By returns he refers to the sum of all rewards provided by the stars explored during the mission and of course be largely scientific.  He considers a multi vehicle approach using several probes which do not return to Earth and are capable of exploring different stars thereby maximising the mission returns. Finally he explores the routing of such a mission to ensure maximum mission returns. Succinctly he calls this his ‘Bi-objective multi- vehicle open routing problem with profits.’ The thesis concludes with several recommendation. First that the use of efficient routing around the stars‚ a more limited number of probes can be used‚ limiting reducing fuel costs. This should be balanced by the mission returns which increase faster should more probes be used to explore the same number of stars simultaneously. This does however increase mission costs due to increase fuel costs. Whichever strategy is used‚ small-scale remotely operated or autonomous craft are far more suited to the need.  Lebert goes on to explain that higher probe numbers also brings the benefit that probes can be tailored to suit the star systems they are destined to explore. Unlike a smaller number of probes that will have to cater for a greater range of systems.  There is a concept known as the ‘derived scaling law’ which articulates that higher probe numbers do inherit a risk of less efficient deployment. It’s an interesting read that reminds us that‚ whilst we are developing the probes‚ and there are quite a number on the drawing board; Breakthrough Starshot‚ Interstellar Express‚ Interstellar Probe‚ Innovative Interstellar Explorer‚ Tau Mission to name a few‚ we do need to consider just how we plan‚ manage and deploy to maximise the scientific gain.  Source : Optimal Strategies for the Exploration of Near-by Stars The post What’s the Most Effective Way to Explore our Nearest Stars&;#63; appeared first on Universe Today.
