The grid is used similarly to graph paper to conduct experiments in space, according to the National Space Centre. The first few seconds of the video shows European Space Agency astronaut Tim Peake on the middle screen in the background, in front of a grid background. It shows Peake conducting an experiment with a green ball. “It’s not a chroma key background,” Paul Millington, a representative for the National Space Centre, said in an email to Reuters.

Scott Bryan used Twitter to build a career as a journalist writing and commentating about TV. He fears Musk's takeover will drive people from the platform, which would deny others its benefits. For people interested in entering journalism, Twitter provides a network of pretty much every single editor and journalist in the country. Beyond my following, I use Twitter to sense how much the wider public is reacting to a new TV story. My tweets show editors and producers what I'm knowledgeable about and have led to invitations to go on radio and TV.
Cu un volum total de peste 42.000 de metri cubi, echivalentul a 17 bazine olimpice de înot, Blue Abyss ţinteşte către titlul de „cea mai adâncă piscină interioară din lume”, scrie mediafax.ro. Blue Abyss, construită de compania britanică ce poartă acelaşi nume, va avea o adâncime de 50 de metri. Potrivit estimărilor Daily Mail, piscina va măsura pe verticală aproximativ jumătate din mărimea Turnului Elizabeth din Westminster, care găzduieşte celebrul Big Ben. După cum se vede şi în imaginile publicate recent, piscina va fi construită în interiorul unei clădiri aparte, în formă de lacrimă, proiectată de arhitectul britanic Robin Partington. Recordul mondial pentru cea mai adâncă piscină este deţinut de Deepspot din Mszczonów, Polonia, care are o adâncime de 45 de metri şi a fost deschisă în noiembrie 2020.
