Following their 1-0 victory of the Seattle Sounders in the Western Conference Final, the LA Galaxy locker room was full of tears and silence. For a record-setting sixth time in their 29-year history, the LA Galaxy are champions of Major League Soccer. Red Bulls defender Sean Nealis cut the deficit in half with a beautiful volley inside the box in the 28th minute. The Red Bulls had rallied from a one-goal deficit in the playoffs before. However, in all their other MLS Cup Playoff matches, the Red Bulls scored first and relied on their durable defense to hold steady.

For mainstream Americans, Red Bull is a drink consumed at parties and nightclubs. The Serbian dribbled untouched into the Red Bull penalty area and finished with his weak foot past New York goalkeeper Carlos Coronel. In the U.S., the former Metrostars are a Red Bull brand that’s still searching for an identity. “I came here to… bring the Red Bulls back to something special,” he said. New York was in an MLS Cup final again, but so many questions remain about the longevity of their success.

☆ Webb telescope offers an unexpected view of the Sombrero galaxy
▼ + stars: | 2024-12-02 | by ( Ashley Strickland | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

CNN —The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a surprising new view of a long-studied galactic neighbor, the Sombrero galaxy, revealing a perspective that looks quite different from the wide-brimmed Mexican hat for which it was named. Hubble: Messier 104, The Sombrero Galaxy Looking like a broad-brimmed Mexican hat, the “Sombrero” galaxy, M104, is a spiral galaxy seen nearly edge-on. NASA/ESA/CSA/STScI The Sombrero Galaxy is imaged in visible light by the Hubble Space Telescope, left, and in mid-infrared light by the James Webb Space Telescope’s MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument). But the Sombrero galaxy is quiet in terms of star formation compared with other galaxies such as Messier 82. The Webb telescope, launched in December 2021, will begin its fourth year of observing the universe in July.

☆ The US military's fight with the Houthis is locked in a dangerous stalemate
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-30 | by ( Jake Epstein | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +7 min

In the year since, the rebels have menaced key Middle East shipping routes with missiles and drones, disrupting maritime trade. However, the ongoing Houthi attacks have caused a notable decline in activity along that critical route, forcing ships to make longer and more expensive trips around Africa. Over the past year, the Navy has fired off hundreds of munitions in its Middle East operations, costing over $1.8 billion and draining the Pentagon of key missiles that are expensive to procure. Officials stress that Washington will continue to act against the Houthis to stop their attacks. Even as some warships left the Middle East earlier this month, other vessels have already moved in to take their place.

“It could completely reshape our understanding of the solar system and of other planetary systems, and how we fit into that context. Brown and his colleague, planetary scientist Konstantin Batygin, reported having strong evidence of a hidden planet on the fringes of our solar system. “If you look at these bodies, their lifetimes are tiny compared to the age of the solar system,” Batygin said. “By now, we expected to have found many more of these extreme trans-Neptunian objects,” Sheppard said in an email. Finding a smaller planet would also spark excitement, Rice added, because every solar system planet is immensely useful for extrapolating information about the thousands of comparable exoplanets that researchers are uncovering across the galaxy.

The Infinite Monkey Theorem hypothesizes that, given a typewriter and an infinite amount of time, a monkey could in theory produce the full works of William Shakespeare. According to Open Source Shakespeare, a web page containing all of the bard’s plays, poems and sonnets, there are 884,421 words in the entire works of Shakespeare. While the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust says the writer introduced more than 1,700 words into the English language, "banana" was not one of them. Other academics were less incredulous, suggesting that the paper was a wild goose chase — a phrase itself invented by Shakespeare. It may be time for the theorem to exit popular usage — pursued, unsuccessfully, by a monkey.

CNN —Researchers have discovered a distant disc galaxy that has surprisingly similar characteristics to our own Milky Way, and it could change our understanding of how galaxies form. Early galaxies tend to join together and develop smoother shapes incredibly slowly, with our Milky Way taking billions of years to develop tidy structures, the researchers said. The rotation and structure of the galaxy were observed using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) telescope in northern Chile. “Finding further evidence of more evolved structures would be an exciting discovery, as it would be the most distant galaxy with such structures observed to date,” Rowland said. “ALMA also reveals details finer than earlier telescopes.”Blain said more research is needed before scientists change their understanding of galaxy formation.
