Last summer, thousands of tie-dyed Burners and Patagonia-clad tech founders converged on the MAPS Psychedelic Science conference in Denver. The experience "broke the spell of this trauma, and she was able to rebuild her life," Doblin told The Guardian . The video team's job was to store recordings of every MDMA therapy session performed in the clinical trials. Grof believes in something called an "inner healing intelligence," an innate capacity for self-healing that psychedelic therapy helps unleash. Another time, a patient who had come to an MDMA therapy session later acknowledged they had been under the influence of LSD during treatment.

Looking ahead, we'll get a couple more earnings results and some key inflationary data to chew on. In this past week, we bought 150 shares of DuPont (DD) and added 75 shares of Wynn Resorts (WYNN).

☆ Investing in Space: A guide to satellites
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-17 | by ( Michael Sheetz | In Michaeljsheetz | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +6 min

CNBC's Investing in Space newsletter offers a view into the business of space exploration and privatization, delivered straight to your inbox. Last year I wrote about the key terms investors should know about the steps involved in a rocket launch, to give a guide for what phrases mean in context. A number of you found that launch guide helpful, so I'm back with another synthesized glossary – but this time for satellites! We've seen a couple of satellites going awry this summer, and I've gotten questions like: "Dang, I thought the launch was successful?" Processing: Mounting the satellite to the rocket and making sure the satellite is healthy, fueled up and ready for launch.

☆ Astranis internet satellite malfunctions before beginning Alaska service, backup planned for spring

Satellite internet service provider Astranis said Friday its first commercial satellite in orbit, which was intended to provide coverage to Alaska, has malfunctioned. The company's Arcturus satellite suffered an issue with both its solar arrays, the company said. On Monday the company identified the root cause, which was solar array drive assembly made by a vendor and not by Astranis. "Solar array drives are motors that rotate the solar arrays to make sure they're always pointed at the sun, and they go transmit that power back into the spacecraft. Gedmark confirmed on Friday that – until the solar array issue – the Astranis-built parts were working.

The Arcturus satellite is seen en route to geosynchronous orbit. AstranisAstranis, a San Francisco-based company with an alternative approach to providing internet access from satellites, has its first spacecraft in orbit, and the company on Wednesday said it's working "perfectly." Astranis has already completed tests with the satellite, including connecting to user equipment in its service target of Alaska for the first time. "This test validates everything that we've been working on and working towards and it's a huge, huge deal," Gedmark said. The Arcturus satellite is seen deploying its solar arrays in the background from onboard the upper stage of SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket.

☆ Arcturus: WHO watching XBB.1.16 as a coronavirus variant of interest
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-24 | by ( Brenda Goodman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —The World Health Organization has elevated the fast-growing Omicron sublineage XBB.1.16 as a new variant of interest, and says it is outcompeting the previously dominant XBB.1.5 in many regions. XBB.1.16 is a descendant of the recombinant XBB, which is a mashup of two BA.2 sublineages. On social media, the variant has been nicknamed Arcturus, like the brightest star in the northern celestial hemisphere. Currently, it is the dominant variant in India, where it is causing a wave of mostly mild illnesses. The XBB.1.5 variant continues to be the dominant cause of new infections in the United States, according to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

☆ Cathie Wood says this emerging investing trend is the 'most misunderstood and underappreciated'

Ark Invest's Cathie Wood believes innovators in DNA development are the most undervalued corner of the market. "I believe that today the genomic revolution is most misunderstood and underappreciated," Wood said at Morgan Stanley's AlphaCurrents Conference last week, according to a transcript provided by the bank. "The stocks in the last year, this growth stock bear market, has ravaged the genomic space. Ark Invest has a specific exchange-traded fund dedicated to this space: ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (ARKG) . However, the fund has wiped out half of its value this year as rising rates hit growth stocks particularly hard.

În stânga sus faţă de planetă, foarte aproape, se află steaua theta Capricorni, aflată la 158 de ani lumină depărtare.

☆ Un elicopter al Forţelor Aeriene din Zimbabwe s-a prăbuşit pe o casă. Un copil, printre morți

Un elicopter al Forţelor Aeriene din Zimbabwe s-a prăbuşit, vineri, pe o casă. Aparatul de zbor s-a prăbuşit pe o casă din Arcturus, o zonă agricolă, la aproximativ 30 de kilometri est de capitala Harare, au spus Forţele Aeriene într-un comunicat, informează Reuters, citată de Mediafax. Elicopterul se afla într-o misiune de antrenament, cu doi piloţi şi un tehnician, când a dispărut pe radar. Pe reţelele sociale au apărut videoclipuri cu părţi carbonizate ale elicopterului şi forţele de securitate care investigau zona. Forţele aeriene din Zimbabwe se plâng că elicopterele şi avioanele de luptă sunt vechi, dar nu au reuşit să cumpere altele noi din cauza sancţiunilor impuse de ţările occidentale.
