The Dark Energy Camera captured a stunning image of “God’s Hand,” a cometary globule 1,300 light-years from Earth in the Puppis constellation. Cometary globules are unique because they have extended tails, like those seen on comets — but that’s the only cometlike thing about them. Astronomers still don’t know how cometary globules come to exist in such distinctive structures. The new image of the glowing red hand-like feature showcases CG 4, one of many cometary globules found across the Milky Way galaxy. The Gum Nebula is believed to contain 31 cometary globules in addition to CG 4.

Some challenges haven't become any easier, he writes in his new book "Ghost Town Living." Once a thriving 19th-century mining hub, it was a desolate ghost town when he moved there two years later. TragedyUnderwood woke at 3 a.m. one day to the smell of smoke, he writes in "Ghost Town Living." He went to stay with his parents for a month, leaving Cerro Gordo in the hands of a few friends. Brent Underwood's "Ghost Town Living" is published by Harmony.

In 2018, my friend sent me a listing for Cerro Gordo, an abandoned mining town in California. In the late 1800s, Cerro Gordo was a prosperous mining town. But right now, I'm sitting 900 feet under a ghost town that's miles away from them. Since I arrived, Cerro Gordo has been hit with storms, fire, a flood, an earthquake, and a blizzard. If I hadn't made this life change, Cerro Gordo would've otherwise just been forgotten, like the hundreds of other towns that were set up in the American West.

Standing 4,150 meters (more than 13,500 feet) above sea level, it is one of highest soccer stadiums in the world. And on Tuesday, Bolivian team Always Ready and Peruvian side Sporting Cristal set a new record for the highest match ever played in the Copa Libertadores, South America’s equivalent of the Champions League. “We must clarify something: playing at this altitude is very difficult,” Cristal head coach Enderson Moreira said after the match, per El Comercio. “We played in a complicated stadium, it is perhaps the game that Cristal has played at the highest altitude, but there are no excuses,” Cristal star Yoshimar Yotún told El Comercio. Always Ready beat Sporting Cristal 6-1 at high altitude.

CNN —A decade-long survey of the night sky has revealed a mysterious new type of star astronomers are referring to as an “old smoker.”These previously hidden stellar objects are aging, giant stars located near the heart of the Milky Way galaxy. This illustration shows an eruption occurring in the swirling disk of matter around a newborn star. They help the newborn star in the middle to grow, but make it harder for planets to form. Infrared images show a red giant star, located 30,000 light years away near the center of the Milky Way. Understanding how the old smokers release elements into space could change the way astronomers think about the way such elements are distributed across the universe.

(Reuters) - A large blaze at a garbage dump outside Panama City blew a toxic smoke in the country's capital on Friday, forcing evacuations as firefighters battled to put out the flames that authorities said were likely caused by arson the night before. "Everything points to the fire being started deliberately," firefighter chief Ernesto de Leon told a press conference. Health Minister Luis Francisco Sucre told reporters evacuations were being effected to protect residents from the flames and toxic gases. Videos on social media showed a helicopter flying above the thick gray smoke spraying down water as birds scatter overhead. Since 6 a.m. some 7,360 gallons (around 28,000 liters) of water have been sprayed over the area, authorities told reporters, saying some 60% of the blaze was controlled and this could reach 90% by Saturday.

Before there was tourism, there was pilgrimage: a trip of endurance, hardship and ecstasy in celebration of one’s faith. On an epic pilgrimage of his own, one writer ventures into the heart of three great religions in Bolivia, Mongolia and Iraq. The Imam Hussein shrine in Karbala the day after Ashura. “They’re poor, but they come thousands of kilometers for the love of Imam Hussein.” PILGRIMAGE WAS A great equalizer. “Labaik ya Hussein,” came the solemn chorus of surrounding voices.

Tabata and other Palmeiras substitutes drew attention to racist abuse from Cerro Porteno fans during the match, which was played in May. "What actually happened was that I heard the fans shouting 'monos' (monkeys) at the players who were on the pitch, near the north stand. "When we understood, I asked them back and wanted to understand if that was it, if they were calling us monkeys. "I was denouncing the racism that was taking place by their fans, because they are the ones responsible, not us," he added. In a video posted on social media and published by local media outlet Globo Ge, a Porteno fan recorded himself calling Palmeiras players monkeys and shouting other insults.

REUTERS/Andrew HayACEQUIA DE LA SIERRA, New Mexico, May 2 (Reuters) - Rivers are roaring in northern New Mexico after a big snowpack. The problem is blocking water flowing from a 12,000-foot (3,660-meter) Sangre de Cristo mountain peak into the Mora Valley through earthen channels known as acequias. Sanchez, a mayordomo or water caretaker, had hoped to have Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) funding to clear the ditches after the agency was given $3.95 billion to compensate communities for the 40-mile-long blaze. FEMA and other federal support has reached only a handful of the dozens of acequias that requested aid in November, said local irrigation leader Paula Garcia. "I don't think they're up to the job," said Roybal-Mack, a Mora Valley native.
The analysis of power usage data by Reuters at some of the key mines in Peru, the world's no. The South American nation has been gripped by anti-government protests since the Dec. 7 ouster of leftist President Pedro Castillo. The power data from COES, which represents firms in Peru's energy sector, shows that nearly all major mines are drawing normal or near-normal levels of electricity. A combined index of six key mines is near normal. The other firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment about activity at their mines in Peru.
This binary system, studied using a telescope at the Chile-based Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, is located about 11,000 light years from Earth in our Milky Way galaxy in the direction of the constellation Puppis. Its companion star boasts a mass 18 to 19 times greater than the sun after cannibalizing its mate. The two stars orbit around each other every 59-1/2 days, separated by about eight-tenths of the distance existing between Earth and the sun. The type of binary system examined in this study is rare, with roughly 10 estimated to exist in a Milky Way populated by about 100-400 billion stars. "In the case of these massive stars, we have not yet detected planets around them.
[1/5] Demonstrators take part in a protest to demand Peru's President Dina Boluarte to step down, in Lima, Peru, January 31, 2023. The protests began after Congress removed President Pedro Castillo on Dec. 7. His ouster fired up anger against the elite, especially in poor rural Andean regions in Peru's south, which had propelled Castillo, a leftist former teacher and political novice, to the presidency in 2021. Castillo's vice president, Dina Boluarte, took over as Peru's sixth president in five years following his ouster. Establishing a timeline for new elections could calm the protests, but even that may not solve Peru's political woes in the longer run.
Astronomers have identified 3.32 billion celestial objects in the Milky Way in unprecedented detail. The galactic panorama of stars, gas, dust and a supermassive black hole known as Sagittarius A* was captured by the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Dark Energy Camera on a 4-meter telescope. It’s housed at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in northern Chile, which sits at an altitude of 7,200 feet, allowing for one of the clearest views of the night sky.
The anger in the Andean south looks likely to harden, protest leaders told Reuters, a major risk to firms in the world's no. "This is an endless battle," said Edgar Chura, leader of the Puno Defense Front protest group before the Monday clashes, a view shared by other protest leaders who spoke with Reuters. Protest leaders, meanwhile, say that a government proposal to bring elections forward to April 2024 is not enough. Jose Luis Chapa, a protest leader and workers union official in Arequipa, said new elections must be held this year if the government wanted dialogue. "The agreement is not to talk with anyone from government, least of all Dina Boluarte," the mining region protest leader said, adding protests would be "staggered" around the south.
Astronomers discovered a "planet killer" asteroid that may pose a threat to Earth in future millennia. That makes it a "planet killer," Scott S. Sheppard, an astronomer at the Carnegie Institution for Science, said in a press release announcing the discovery on Monday. But there could be other planet killer asteroids lurking unseen in the blind spot where 2022 AP7 was discovered: within the orbits of Earth and Venus, between us and the sun. That makes it very difficult to spot asteroids located between Earth and the sun. "There are likely only a few [near-Earth asteroids] with similar sizes left to find," Sheppard said in the release.

Oamenii de știință au găsit în Chile fosile ale unei noi specii de mamifer care a trăit în urmă cu 72 de milioane de aniFosile ale unei noi specii de mamifer din Cretacicul Superior, cu o vârstă cuprinsă între 72 de milioane şi 74 de milioane de ani, au fost descoperite în Patagonia de pe teritoriul statului Chile, a anunţat miercuri Institutul Chilian Antarctic (INACH). Descoperirea a fost realizată pe teritoriul unui sit considerat unul dintre cele mai mari rezervoare de fosile de dinozaur din regiune. Noua specie, denumită Orretherium tzen, a fost descoperită în Cerro Guido, din regiunea Magallanes, situată la circa 2.700 de kilometri sud de Santiago de Chile, unde cercetătorii au găsit resturi dintr-o mandibulă cu cinci dinţi consecutivi, notează AFP, citată de digi24.ro. Potrivit cercetătorilor, zona a fost locuită de specii preistorice din America şi Antarctica, care au migrat în urmă cu milioane de ani traversând fâşii de pământ aflate sub ape şi care au ieşit la suprafaţă după scăderea temperaturilor. Specimenul era înrudit cu alte mamifere descoperite în Patagonia de pe teritoriul Argentinei.
