The space rock, known as 2016 HO3, is a rare quasi-satellite — a type of near-Earth asteroid that orbits the sun but sticks close to our planet. Astronomers first discovered it in 2016 using the Pan-STARRS telescope, or Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System, in Hawaii. Scientists call the asteroid Kamo’oalewa, a name derived from a Hawaiian creation chant that alludes to an offspring traveling on its own. Kamo’oalewa specimen: A connecting puzzle pieceStudying crater impacts on the moon can also help scientists better understand the consequences of asteroid impacts should a space rock pose a threat to Earth in the future. There’s no other place, no other planet in our solar system with a moon like our moon.

☆ Când Isus nu e Hristos. Evanghelia după Liiceanu
▼ + stars: | 2020-05-26 | by ( Mihail Neamtu | ) adevarul.ro time to read: +9 min

De aici şi tristeţea noastră, ba chiar dezamăgirea şi gustul amar: deşi scrisă îngrijit, ultima carte a lui Gabriel Liiceanu e mai puţin o meditaţie despre Salvator Mundi, cât o răfuială cu scăderile, neputinţele sau erorile creştinismului instituţional. Nici la acest volum Gabriel Liiceanu nu simte nevoia să facă vreo referinţă. Dincolo însă de pedanteria obiecţiilor academice, îi reproşăm autorului altceva: faptul că n-a înţeles că, vrei, nu vrei, atunci când vorbeşti despre Iisus faci teologie. Gabriel Liiceanu accesează un Isus altfel — un personaj special, dezvăluit filozofului prin mecanisme hermeneutice străine „habotnicilor”, „pocăiţilor” sau „pupătorilor de moaşte” (cum e la modă să fie numiţi creştinii în lumea bună). De ce tocmai Iisus a afirmat: „Înainte de Avraam, «Eu sunt... »” – iată un enunţ de-o greutate ontologică lipsită de răspuns din partea filozofului.
