On Wednesday evening‚ the European Space Agency's (ESA's) European Remote Sensing 2 (ERS-2) satellite will re-enter the Earth's atmosphere‚ just under 13 years after its mission ended.ERS-2 was launched in April 1995‚ an Earth-monitoring satellite tasked with monitoring our planet's ocean temperatures‚ winds‚ polar ice‚ and changing landscapes. The satellite was also used to monitor natural disasters in hard-to-reach areas. The satellite pioneered technology in use by the next generation of satellites‚ including a radar altimeter that paved the way for the operation of CryoSat‚ dedicated to monitoring the planet's ice levels."Back when ERS-2 was launched the notion of climate change was far less appreciated and understood than it is today‚" the ESA said in a statement about ERS-2's final journey‚ "but the ERS missions gave scientists the data that helped us to begin to understand the impact that humans are having on the planet."        As its 16-year mission concluded‚ ESA lowered the satellite's altitude from 785 kilometers (487 miles) to 573 kilometers (356 miles) to lower the chances of collisions with other space objects. "In 2011‚ after almost 16 years of operations‚ ESA took the decision to bring the mission to an end. A series of deorbiting manoeuvres was carried out to low the satellite’s average altitude and mitigate the risk of collision with other satellites or space debris‚" the ESA explains. "The satellite was also passivated to reduce the risk of fragmentation."Fuel-less‚ ERS-2 continued to orbit Earth‚ but thanks to atmospheric drag is now set to crash to Earth on Wednesday evening. The satellite‚ which is being closely monitored as it makes its descent‚ is due to reenter the Earth's atmosphere at 20:53 UTC‚ though unpredictable solar activity means that the error margin is +/– 7.48 hours. Whenever it happens‚ the satellite's fate is sealed."After 13 years of orbital decay‚ mainly driven by solar activity‚ the satellite will now naturally reenter Earth’s atmosphere‚" the ESA explained‚ adding that risk to the public is very low‚ and that much of the satellite will burn up on re-entry.

For the first time ever‚ researchers have succeeded in growing a pair of testicles in the laboratory. Created from immature testicular cells taken from newborn mice‚ the cultured cojones quickly developed structures resembling those seen in natural knackers and may even be capable of sperm production.As with other types of lab-grown organs - typically referred to as organoids - the miniature spuds were created to allow researchers to gain new insights into organ development and disease. Until now‚ scientists had no in vitro system for modeling the testis‚ and the team behind the propagated plums therefore hope to advance our understanding of male sexual function.“Artificial testicles are a promising model for basic research on testicle development and function‚ which can be translated into therapeutic applications for disorders of sexual development and infertility‚” explained study author Dr Nitzan Gonen in a statement. To create the lab-grown bollocks - which are essentially tiny bundles of cells that simulate the processes in real testicles - the researchers placed primary mouse testicular cells into a specially formulated growing medium. Within two days‚ the miniature organs developed tubular structures and cellular organization patterns mirroring those seen in real gonads.Typically‚ organoids are developed to resemble organs in their embryonic stage – yet the study authors were able to grow their mini balls to a more mature state. In total‚ they maintained the organoids for nine weeks‚ during which time they expanded in size before eventually collapsing once their blood supply demands became too great.The study authors paid particular attention to the development of Sertoli cells‚ which support spermatogonia and play a crucial role in sperm production. Importantly‚ they found that the maturation of these cells across the nine-week period closely resembled that seen in live mice at the corresponding stages.The researchers also point out that while nine weeks may not sound like a long lifespan for a pair of family jewels‚ the spermatogenesis process in live mice typically only takes about 35 days. In theory‚ then‚ it’s perfectly possible for a lab-grown goolie to complete this cycle and produce sperm within this timescale. So far‚ the study authors are yet to determine whether their replica rocks can achieve this feat‚ although they say that their experiments have yielded “first indications that these organoids can support entry of [spermatogonial stem cells] to meiosis” - the process by which sperm are produced.“In this study we developed testicular organoids from mice‚ but it is highly possible that similar settings could be applied to generate testicular organoids from pre-pubertal boys‚” write the researchers. If such organoids can be produced from human cells‚ then they may offer a pathway to new treatments for male infertility.  “If these organoids are able to fully mimic the functionality of adult testis‚ we would expect them to be able to produce haploid sperm in vitro‚” assert the study authors. “This ability could be revolutionary and enable infertile patients to have a biological child.”The study has been published in the International Journal of Biological Sciences.

A study of DNA sequences from almost 10‚000 ancient individuals has revealed six children with Down Syndrome. By following the trail to data about their remains and burial sites‚ scientists can start to piece together the history of these children‚ and the position they may have held within their communities.Most humans are born with 46 chromosomes – 22 pairs of autosomes‚ plus either XX or XY sex chromosomes. Occasionally‚ though‚ people are born with either missing or extra copies of certain chromosomes‚ a condition called aneuploidy. People with Down Syndrome have an extra copy of chromosome 21. In the vast majority of cases‚ all of the cells in their body will have three copies of chromosome 21 instead of two‚ known as trisomy. The condition affects about one in 1‚000 births today‚ but scientists knew less about how common the condition may have been among our ancient ancestors. Adam “Ben” Rohrlach of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology‚ together with colleagues from around the world‚ planned the first systematic study of rare genetic conditions in ancient human genomes. Among the almost 10‚000 DNA samples tested‚ they were surprised to identify six individuals with unusually large quantities of chromosome 21 DNA‚ something they say could only be explained by having an extra copy of the chromosome.One of the samples came from a child buried in a churchyard in Finland sometime in the 17th or 18th centuries‚ but the other five were much older. These samples were obtained from Bronze Age sites in Greece and Bulgaria‚ and Iron Age sites in Spain‚ and all of them dated to between 5‚000 and 2‚500 years ago. As well as the six new cases‚ the team was able to verify a previous report of Down Syndrome in an infant from Ireland who died between 3629 and 3371 BCE. An aerial view of the Early Iron Age settlement at Alto de la Cruz‚ Navarre‚ Spain.Image credit: Government of Navarre and J.L. LarrionBut arguably even more exciting than the genetic findings was the wealth of information the researchers were able to obtain about the individuals’ gravesites and remains.They were first able to confirm that all the children had died in early infancy‚ with only one seemingly having reached their first birthday. This is perhaps unsurprising as Down Syndrome is associated with a range of potential medical complications – these can be managed well with modern medicine‚ but may well have posed an insurmountable challenge to the physicians of the ancient world.  The burial sites themselves yielded some clues about how these children may have been treated by the adults around them.“These burials seem to show us that these individuals were cared for and appreciated as part of their ancient societies‚” said Rohrlach in a statement. This was evidenced by the special grave goods like jewelry‚ seashells‚ and even animal remains that had been interred with some of the bodies. The five oldest burials were all located within settlements‚ a privileged position for the deceased.Remains of an infant with Down Syndrome‚ interred within one of the houses at the Iron Age settlement.Image credit: Government of Navarre and J.L. LarrionDown Syndrome was not the only rare genetic condition represented within the data. Another individual was also flagged as having unexpectedly high levels of DNA sequences from chromosome 18‚ suggesting an extra copy of that chromosome. Trisomy 18 is also known as Edwards Syndrome. Most fetuses with the condition do not survive to term‚ and those children who are born have a severely shortened life expectancy. Puzzlingly‚ the child with Edwards Syndrome was also found at one of the Spanish Iron Age burial sites. “At the moment‚ we cannot say why we find so many cases at these sites‚” said co-author Roberto Risch‚ “but we know that they belonged to the few children who received the privilege to be buried inside the houses after death. This already is a hint that they were perceived as special babies.”Evidence from even more ancient burials has suggested that prehistoric societies were kinder towards people with disabilities than we might have believed. These findings would seem to add weight to that idea‚ and the authors hope to expand their research to shed even more light on it.Senior author Kay Prüfer explained‚ “What we would like to learn is how ancient societies reacted to individuals that may have needed a helping hand or were simply a bit different.”The study is published in Nature Communications. 

Being the driest place in North America‚ Death Valley probably isn’t the first place that springs to mind when thinking about lakes – but that doesn’t mean you won’t find one there. After Hurricane Hilary brought heavy rainfall to the region last year‚ a lake popped up in Badwater Basin and though at first it seemed to be disappearing‚ it now appears to be filling right back up.“Most of us thought the lake would be gone by October‚” said Death Valley National Park ranger Abby Wines in a statement. “We were shocked to see it still here after almost six months.” After all‚ while the lake had reached 11.2 kilometers (7 miles) long‚ 6.4 kilometers (4 miles) wide‚ and 0.6 meters (2 feet) deep last August‚ it had gradually been shrinking.So why is it now making an unexpected comeback‚ like an end to the One Direction “hiatus”? It's all thanks to an atmospheric river – a flowing column of condensed water vapor that dumps down as heavy rain when it hits land (no Harry Styles involved).Although water flows into Badwater Basin and not out of it (this makes it endorheic – there’s your word of the day)‚ the heat usually means that evaporation takes water away faster than it can be replenished. That’s why many would more likely know it as a vast salt flat.Badwater Basin in its dry and salty era.Image credit: Kris Wiktor/Shutterstock.comHowever‚ an atmospheric river earlier this month meant Death Valley saw 38 millimeters (1.5 inches) of rain in just three days – it normally only gets 50 millimeters (2 inches) in a year. Some of that water has been draining into the basin‚ filling up the lake.“The Amargosa River [which feeds the basin from the south] is really flowing‚ and we’ve noticed the water level continue to rise over the last couple of days as waters make their way to the basin‚” said park ranger Matthew Lamar‚ speaking to NASA’s Earth Observatory.The changes brought about in the valley by these significant weather events have not only been observed by park officials‚ but also captured in satellite images. Taken by the Operational Land Imager (OLI) sensors on Landsat 8 and 9‚ the pictures show a stark difference between Badwater Basin in early July 2023 versus late August of the same year.Badwater Basin on July 5‚ 2023 (left)‚ August 30‚ 2023 (center)‚ and February 14‚ 2024 (right).Image credit: Wanmei Liang‚ using Landsat data from the US Geological SurveyThe image taken of the basin on February 14‚ 2024 looks much like when it was initially flooded last August. How long it will last this time is unclear; lakes in Death Valley are pretty rare‚ after all.

Whenever elite media folks act as if they are smarter than the yahoos in the sticks‚ please keep the sad yet hilarious story of Charlotte Cowles in mind. She is the financial advice columnist of the New York magazine The Cut section and previously a weekly columnist in the Business section of the New York Times. She revealed on Thursday how‚ with a incredible level of gullibility‚ she handed a box containing $50‚000 of most of her savings to a scammer in "The Day I Put $50‚000 in a Shoe Box and Handed It to a Stranger." Her long tale of financial scam woe runs well over 5‚000 words but here a few highlights from someone who you have to scratch your head to remind yourself that she is a financial advice columnist. On a Tuesday evening this past October‚ I put $50‚000 in cash in a shoe box‚ taped it shut as instructed‚ and carried it to the sidewalk in front of my apartment‚ my phone clasped to my ear. “Don’t let anyone hurt me‚” I told the man on the line‚ feeling pathetic. “You won’t be hurt‚” he answered. “Just keep doing exactly as I say.” Three minutes later‚ a white Mercedes SUV pulled up to the curb. “The back window will open‚” said the man on the phone. “Do not look at the driver or talk to him. Put the box through the window‚ say ‘thank you‚’ and go back inside.” The man on the phone knew my home address‚ my Social Security number‚ the names of my family members‚ and that my 2-year-old son was playing in our living room. He told me my home was being watched‚ my laptop had been hacked‚ and we were in imminent danger. “I can help you‚ but only if you cooperate‚” he said. His first orders: I could not tell anyone about our conversation‚ not even my spouse‚ or talk to the police or a lawyer. Because if a complete stranger tells you to place $50‚000 in cash on the back seat of a car driven by someone you don't know‚ isn't that a normal thing to do? Well‚ perhaps if you are a financial advice columnist for New York magazine and previously had a column in the New York Times‚ where there is a distinct break from reality. Cowles goes on to describe how she was so easily scammed. A woman named Krista who identified herself as from Amazon customer service called the mark named Charlotte about unusual account activity in her purchases. Krista then put Cowles in touch with an FTC investigator named Calvin who later put her in phone contact with a CIA guy named Michael. CIA? What have they got to do with domestic affairs much less unusual account activities at Amazon? Somehow this did not seem to occur to our financial advice columnist. We now pick up the tale in her own words. Michael snowed me with the same stories Calvin had. They were consistent: the car on the Texas border‚ the property in New Mexico‚ the drugs‚ the bank accounts. He asked if I shared my residence with anyone besides my husband and son. Then he asked more questions about my family members‚ including my parents‚ my brother‚ and my sister-in-law. He knew their names and where they lived. I told him they had nothing to do with this. In fact‚ I was now sure I wanted to consult a lawyer. “If you talk to an attorney‚ I cannot help you anymore‚” Michael said sternly. “You will be considered noncooperative. Your home will be raided‚ and your assets will be seized. You may be arrested. It’s your choice.” This seemed ludicrous. I pictured officers tramping in‚ taking my laptop‚ going through our bookshelves‚ questioning our neighbors‚ scaring my son. It was a nonstarter. After this‚ CIA Michael came to the point. Namely the cash. He asked me how much cash I thought I would need to support myself for a year if necessary. My assets could be frozen for up to two years if the investigation dragged on‚ he added. There could be a trial; I might need to testify. These things take time. “I don’t know‚ $50‚000?” I said. I wondered how I would receive paychecks without a bank account. Would I have to take time off from work? I did some mental calculations of how much my husband could float us and for how long. “Okay‚” he said. “You need to go to the bank and get that cash out now. You cannot tell them what it is for. In one of my last cases‚ the identity thief was someone who worked at the bank.” Cowles did as told and withdrew $50‚000 in cash. However‚ she soon had a very brief moment of mental clarity. As I walked back to my apartment‚ something jolted me out of my trance‚ and I became furious. No government agency would establish this as “protocol.” It was preposterous. “I need to speak with Michael‚” I told the woman on the phone. He got on right away. “I don’t even believe that you’re a CIA agent‚” I said. “What you’re asking me to do is completely unreasonable.” Her skepticism did not last long because CIA Michael sent her a pic of his badge and that put Cowles back on track to be thoroughly scammed a short time later. I met the SUV at the curb and put the money in the back seat. It was 6:06 p.m. Even if I’d tried to see who was driving‚ the windows were tinted and it was dusk. He maybe wore a baseball cap. When I turned around‚ I could see the backlit faces of my husband and son watching from our apartment nine stories above. As I walked back inside‚ Michael texted me a photo of a Treasury check made out to me for $50‚000 and told me a hard copy would be hand-delivered to me in the morning. He was working on setting up my appointment with the Social Security office. “You will receive a confirmation text shortly‚” he said. “Stay on the line until you do.” I felt oddly comforted by this. An appointment would give me something legitimate‚ an actual connection to a government agency. The question is‚ who in their right mind would ever again take financial advice from Charlotte Cowles? 

I remember back when I was just a kid‚ reading stories of people who were stranded and built a raft to escape and get back to civilization. The post Bug Out on the Water appeared first on Survivopedia.

In many states‚ AI-aided cameras have begun to pop up and feed information to police about the comings and goings of both criminals and law-abiding citizens. Police have hailed the technology as a helpful tool tracking down fugitives‚ while privacy advocates object to the cameras as another step toward government monitoring of every second of our lives. In Missouri‚ one Republican is trying to ban police from using the cameras‚ which are often known by their brand name‚ Flock. Republican state Senator Mike Cierpiot has submitted a bill in the state Senate that would ban police from using the cameras‚ at least as applied to cameras that read stationary license plates. In a podcast last week‚ Cierpiot vehemently objected to being constantly tracked by police and pointed out that there are no controls over what police do with the data after they collect it. Many police‚ however‚ support the use of the cameras‚ saying they help catch criminals. Lt. Tom Wilkison told KOMO-TV that St. Charles City Police Department caught a Nevada bank robbery suspect last year due to the help of the cameras. "Would not be able to do that without license plate reader technology. Without that technology‚ it hinders our investigations."Many‚ though‚ question whether the ability to catch the occasional interstate fugitive is worth the trade-off that comes with police being able to track every movement of everyone's car in real time‚ including St. Charles County Council Member Joe Brazil‚ who opposed the expansion of the technology in St. Charles County. "It’s too much government intrusion. I mean‚ how far are they gonna go?" Brazil also questioned whether the technology would only be used to catch serious criminals or whether it might be turned to nefarious purposes. "Just for serious criminals? Or are they going out and when you start getting citations for your bushes being too wild‚ are they gonna track you down and give you a ticket when they’re out on the street? I have no idea."The issue has sparked debate across numerous counties in Missouri‚ leading some to seek a statewide solution. Other states and cities‚ including Austin‚ Texas‚ have had fierce debates over the technology in the past year.

Luxury watch dealer Roman Sharf shelled out $9‚000 Saturday for a pair of "Never Surrender" high-top sneakers signed by former President Donald Trump at Philadelphia's Sneaker Con. After securing the pair of limited-edition and now sold-out shoes at auction‚ Sharf underwent significant media scrutiny. Despite migrating to the United States as a teen and reportedly serving in the U.S. military‚ the American entrepreneur was cast by various publications and online personalities as a Russian CEO. The Daily Mail went farther‚ characterizing Sharf as a Trump-supporting "Russian oligarch." Sharf punched back in a Monday video in which he corrected his origin story‚ defended his purchase‚ and underscored his patriotism. Quick background Shoe aficionados flocked to the Philadelphia Convention Center over the weekend for Sneaker Con‚ a traveling event for collectors to buy‚ sell‚ and trade sneakers. Trump made an appearance‚ debuting a line of golden shoes featuring a "T" embossed on the tongue and an American flag on the ankle. — (@) According to the website that sold out of all 1‚000 of the $399 limited-run shoes‚ "Trump Sneakers are not designed‚ manufactured‚ distributed or sold by Donald J. Trump‚ The Trump Organization or any of their respective affiliates or principals." The Associated Press claimed that the shoe website was run by Trump's CIC Ventures LLC. However‚ the shoe company clearly states in its FAQ that CIC Ventures simply holds the trademarks for Trump's name and likeness and neither manages nor controls the company: "45Footwear uses Donald J. Trump's name‚ likeness and image under paid license from CIC Ventures LLC." Extra to the "Never Surrender High Top Sneaker‚" the company advertised a pair of red laceless athletic shoes and a pair of white laceless shoes‚ reported NBC News. "I've wanted to do this for a long time‚" Trump told an uproarious crowd. "I have some incredible people that work with me on things‚ and they came up with this ... and I think it's gonna be a big success." Trump signed ten of the high-tops. Some collectors had an opportunity to get their hands on a pair Saturday. Sharf‚ a self-described "sneaker head" and the CEO of the successful pre-owned luxury watch dealer Luxury Bazaar — founded in 2001 in Southampton‚ Pennsylvania — paid $9‚000 at auction so that he could add the high-tops to his collection. In a post to X‚ Sharf wrote‚ "Passing these down to my kids‚ but for now will display in the office." See on Instagram Responding to Russian framing Various publications and critics online leaned on the narrative that Sharf was a Russian businessman with an unhealthy affinity for Trump. The Daily Mail ran an article entitled‚ "MAGA mania! Russian oligarch buys pair of autographed Trump sneakers for $9k at auction while others list limited edition kicks for $45‚000 on eBay." The New York Post recirculated an article by the Australian publication News.com.au‚ emphasizing in the body and title that Sharf was a "Russian CEO." Various social media users with significant followings insinuated that the sneaker game presented an opportunity for Trump and Moscow to collude. Olga Lautman‚ a senior fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis and co-host of the KremlinFile podcast‚ wrote‚ "How shocking[.] A shady Russian watch dealer paid $9.000 fo [sic] Trump’s gaudy sneakers. I can't figure if this is going to be a new way to move money or just plain stupidity." Sharf set the record straight Monday with a pithy video. "So‚ bought a pair of sneakers ... and apparently‚ they made me a Russian oligarch overnight‚" says Sharf. "Guys‚ I'm a sneaker head. I'm also a U.S. Army veteran. And yes‚ I am a Republican." Referencing the Daily Mail headline‚ Sharf noted‚ "I actually came from Ukraine." "At the time it was part of the Soviet Union. I came here at the age of 13 as a refugee‚" continued the watch dealer. "My dad had four dollars in his pocket. I busted my ass working every dirty job under the sun to get where I am today in order to be able to afford to buy this $9‚000 pair of collectible sneakers." He also singled out Lautman's remarks‚ claiming not only that is he from Ukraine but that his organization has allegedly helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for the beleaguered nation since its invasion by Russia. Sharf acknowledged his apparent Ukrainian origin and immigrant story "would not get as many clicks as 'Russian oligarch.'" After shaking off threats of a boycott on account of his purchase‚ Sharf stressed‚ "There's not a mean tweet in the world‚ there's not an IG post‚ there's not a news article that's gonna stop me from being who I am and that is a patriot of this country." "You wanna hate me for wanting this country to be great again‚ go ahead and judge the sneaker head. But no matter what‚ I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. One nation under God‚ indivisible‚ with liberty and justice for all‚" added Sharf. — (@) Like Blaze News?

If there’s one thing that Mark Levin is sure of‚ it’s that there’s not a single legitimate charge against Donald Trump. “He’s attacked by the attorney general of New York‚ who is a left-wing reprobate and campaigned as a left-wing reprobate‚ on a fraud statute that doesn’t require fraud‚” Levin says. “On a fraud statute that’s never been used before in the history of the state of New York.” Levin believes those going after Trump are “rewriting laws‚ twisting laws‚ making laws‚ in order to get Trump.” “None of this is fair and square. None of this is in the precedent of criminal prosecutions. None of this is in the criminal code‚ state or federal‚” he continues. And what’s happening in Fulton County between Fani Willis and Nathan Wade is no better. “Meanwhile‚ defense counsel demonstrated that he had filed several false interrogatories. You file a false interrogatory‚ you do that under penalty of perjury. That is a crime‚ not a misdemeanor‚” Levin explains. The attorneys for Wade scrambled by constantly interrupting based on attorney-client privilege claims. “This is ironic‚ in a sick way‚” Levin says. “They stripped Donald Trump of attorney-client privilege on the January 6 so-called case in Washington‚ D.C.” While the focus is all on Trump‚ the media continues to downplay Biden’s own offenses — which seem to keep getting worse. “For half a century‚ Joe Biden violated federal law. The Espionage Act. As a senator‚ he stole documents‚” Levin explains. “So none of these cases are serious in terms of the law. They’re serious in terms of tying up Donald Trump on time‚ interfering with the election. Every damn one of them‚” he adds.

An American tourist reportedly admitted to raping and murdering a fellow U.S. hiker‚ whom he assaulted and then pushed down a large ravine around the famed "Disney" castle located in Bavaria‚ according to the Telegraph.Troy Phillip Bohling‚ 31‚ who is originally from Michigan‚ had a sweeping confession about the incident on the first day of his trial in a District Court in Kempten‚ which is located about 65 miles southwest of Munich.Prosecutors said that Bohlin had met two women — Eva Liu‚ 21‚ and Kelsey Chang‚ 22 — at the famed Neuschwanstein Castle‚ which is believed to have inspired the castle in Disney's "Sleeping Beauty." The two women were concluding a European tour of a lifetime when they met Bohling while visiting the castle.Bohling offered to take them to a good viewing area of the castle‚ which the two women accepted. After they made it to the area‚ Bohling pushed Liu to the ground and proceed to rape her‚ according to the report. Chang intervened and was eventually pushed into the ravine during the struggle.After pushing Chang into the ravine‚ Bohling continued sexually assaulting Liu‚ strangling her with a belt‚ and filming the whole thing‚ according to the Daily Mail. After two other hikers came onto the scene‚ Bohling pushed the rape victim into the same ravine while she was unconscious.Both women were finally discovered by rescue workers at the bottom of the ravine. The rape victim was flown by helicopter to a hospital to be treated‚ but she eventually died from her injuries.However‚ Chang survived. Her horrific fall was broken by a tree on the way down.A spokesman for the Kempten prosecutors said charges of murder‚ rape‚ attempted murder with grievous bodily harm‚ and possession of child pornography will be presented before the court.The two women were from Illinois‚ having just graduated from the University of Illinois. The university also confirmed Liu's death.Bohling is reportedly from Detroit and lived with his brother in a single-story house. Neighbors described him as "quiet" and unfriendly. They also noted that the brothers were often away from home for extended amounts of time.It is unclear how much time Bohling could spend behind bars if he is found guilty of the charges.
