Last week, DEEP announced a precursor to the Sentinel, a smaller underwater habitat which the company will use to develop systems for the Sentinel but will also be released as a separate product. An underwater habitat placed on the seabed near the wreck could have served as a base for divers instead, said Wolpert. OAR/National Undersea Research Program (NURP)Aquarius replaced Hydrolab after it was decommissioned. OAR/National Undersea Research Program (NURP)Dennison, of the University of Maryland, said Hydrolab was damp, cramped, lacked indoor plumbing, and had only three beds for four occupants. Wolpert said that DEEP is more than a habitat, it’s also a platform for engaging the next generation.

Where to see this week's double meteor shower in the USMeteors are named after the constellations they appear to radiate from. A double meteor shower worth checking outNick Moskovitz took this composite image of the Perseids meteor shower in 2023. But together, the double meteor shower offers a better chance to see two very different types of meteors on the same night. In the case of this double meteor shower, "the thing that's a little bit unusual here is that there happened to be two streams in space that are so close to one another that we see them as sort of a double meteor shower. AdvertisementAs far as meteor showers go, this double event happening tomorrow evening is one of the better ones to enjoy.

CNN —Look up at the night sky this week for a chance to see high-speed meteors and bright fireballs from two meteor showers set to peak around the same time. Meteor showers are the debris left by comets and asteroids orbiting the sun that Earth encounters annually at some point during its orbital path. Constellation Aquarius is the radiant for the Southern Delta Aquariids, and constellation Capricornus is the radiant for the Alpha Capricornids. The Southern Delta Aquariids are about 40 kilometers (25 miles) per second, according to NASA, and typically last for half a second. I think that makes them particularly special.”Meteor showersHere are the remaining meteor showers that are expected to peak in 2024.

CNN —May kicks off with the Eta Aquariid meteor shower, and experts are anticipating a better show than in recent years, according to the American Meteor Society. The Eta Aquariid shower is often considered the best meteor shower of the year for the Southern Hemisphere, where sky-watchers could see between 20 and 40 meteors each hour, or perhaps even more, according to EarthSky. The source of the Eta Aquariid meteor shower is Halley’s comet. It happens again in October, resulting in the Orionid meteor shower. The American Meteor Society is inviting spectators to share their observations of the shower, which will help astronomers determine whether there were more meteors than expected.

Yet I was one of the millions tuning into “The Golden Bachelor” premiere because I wanted to know how they would handle aging. As an older mom, I am fascinated by the media’s portrayal of older women. Consider this: the women of “The Golden Girls” — Blanche, Dorothy and Rose — were in their 50s in 1985, when the show about old women began. “Is anyone watching ‘The Golden Bachelor’ and thinking, ‘maybe I shouldn’t be so scared to get older…. “I feel like as someone in her 20s it’s scary, like how am I going to look when I’m older?

Marilyn Lovell, who, as an object of fascination for the news media, the inspiration for movie and TV characters and a figure in history books, incarnated for many Americans the hardships and glamour of being an astronaut’s wife, died on Aug. 27 in Lake Forest, Ill. She was 93. Her death was announced by the Wenban Funeral Home of Lake Forest. Her husband, Jim Lovell, once the most experienced astronaut in the United States, was captain of perhaps the nation’s most dramatic spaceflight: Apollo 13. It was launched on April 11, 1970, with the goal of returning astronauts to the surface of the moon for the third time. Mr. Lovell and Fred Haise were the designated moon walkers; Jack Swigert was supposed to remain in orbit.

A New Jersey restaurant failed to give some staff the minimum wage and overtime pay, the DOL said. The restaurant paid more than $300,000 to 63 members of staff following the DOL's investigation. The DOL's Wage and Hour Division said in a press release that Aquarius Restaurant Group, which runs Aquarius Seafood Restaurant in Fort Lee, had violated minimum wage and overtime pay laws. Aquarius Seafood Restaurant also used checks and cash to pay kitchen staff twice a month, the spokesperson said. They added that the minimum wage violations occurred "sporadically" throughout the period of investigation, which was from April 2019 to April 2022.

The Eta Aquarids meteor shower is due to peak May 5, offering up to 40 shooting stars per hour.

CNN —With bright meteors blazing across the sky from the Aquariids meteor shower and a chance to see a lunar eclipse, Friday will be the time to look up to the sky for a day of spectacular celestial events. That alignment will create what is known as a penumbral lunar eclipse, which is when the moon enters Earth’s outer shadow. Get a lawn chair and put the moon at your back,” said Robert Lunsford, fireball report coordinator for the American Meteor Society. During a penumbral eclipse, the moon stays on this outer ring, appearing as if it is dimming, but not completely darkening like a total lunar eclipse. On October 28, a partial lunar eclipse will be viewable in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, parts of North America and much of South America.

Italia a autorizat acostarea în Sicilia a navei Ocean Viking, ce aparţine organizaţiei umanitare SOS Méditerranée, pentru a debarca 572 de migranţi, a anunţat ONG-ul joi seara, potrivit AFP, citat de agerpres.ro. SOS Méditerranée lansase miercuri un apel către Uniunea Europeană pentru "găsirea unui port sigur şi debarcarea migranţilor primiţi la bordul Ocean Viking, cât mai rapid posibil". La 1 mai, nava Ocean Viking a adus în Sicilia alţi 236 de migranţi salvaţi pe mare. Recent, ONU a cerut Uniunii Europene şi Libiei să-şi reformeze procedurile de căutare şi salvare a migranţilor pe mare astfel încât să fie respectate drepturile şi demnitatea acestora. Din februarie 2016 până în prezent, organizaţia SOS Méditerranée a salvat peste 30.000 de persoane, cu ajutorul navelor Aquarius şi Ocean Viking.

В этом году пик звездопада Эта-Аквариды можно будет наблюдать в небе в ночь с 5 на 6 мая. Метеорологи рекомендуют следить за Майскими Акваридами в предрассветные часы (с 2.00 до 4.00) вдали от городских огней. Но наблюдение за звездопадом может быть затруднено, так как луна будет полной 7 мая. Звездопад Эта-Аквариды порождается кометой Галлея и получили свое название из-за того, что его видимый источник находится в созвездии Водолея (Aquarius) близ яркой звезды Эта. Скорость отдельного метеора может быть около 66 км/с, пишет РБК.
