COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — The labor conflict against Tesla in Sweden is spreading to neighboring Denmark where transport workers with the country’s largest trade union said Tuesday they will take action in solidarity with Swedish workers against the Texas-based automaker. Tesla is non-unionized globally, but the Swedish workers are demanding that the carmaker sign a collective bargaining agreement, which most employees in Sweden have. “Concretely, this means that dock workers and drivers will not receive and transport Tesla’s cars going to Sweden,” 3F said in a statement. Swedish mechanics stopped servicing Tesla cars and several unions, including postal workers, have joined in a wave of solidarity with IF Metall’s demands. Dockworkers at Sweden’s four largest ports also stopped the delivery of Tesla vehicles to put more pressure on the automaker.

The average distance between the Earth and Sun measured using trigonometry is 93 million miles, not 3,000 miles as claimed in a viral post online. “At that time, Venus is measured to be about 30 million miles away, using two methods that agree: radar and a perspective effect (parallax) where you view Venus from different locations on Earth. Multiple measurements taken over the centuries during the transit of Venus using this method yield an average distance of 93 million miles between Earth and the Sun (here). More on the calculation of the distance between the Earth and Sun using Venus’ transit and trigonometry (parallax) can be viewed (here). The Sun is, on average, 93 million miles from Earth and the distance is calculated using trigonometric parallax.

CNN —Astronomers have detected a repeating radio signal from an exoplanet and the star that it orbits, both located 12 light-years away from Earth. The signal suggests that the Earth-size planet may have a magnetic field and perhaps even an atmosphere. The researchers believe the radio signal was created by interactions between the planet’s magnetic field and the star. How strong radio waves occurIn order for the radio waves to be detectable on Earth, they must be very strong, the researchers said. “This research shows not only that this particular rocky exoplanet likely has a magnetic field but provides a promising method to find more.”
