Cpom Sen. Paul: Congress Is Full of Hypocrites. I Took a Stand
NASA s most advanced roving laboratory on Mars celebrates its second anniversary since landing inside the Red Planet s Gale Crater on Aug. 5, 2012, PDT Aug. 6, 2012, EDT . During its first year of operations, the Curiosity rover fulfilled its major science goal of determining whether Mars ever offered environmental conditions favorable for microbial life. Clay-bearing sedimentary rocks on the crater floor in an area called Yellowknife Bay yielded evidence of a lakebed environment billions stanley becher of years ago that offered fresh water, all of the key elemental ingredients for life, a stanley cup nd a chemical source of energy for microbes, if any existed there. Before landing, we expected that we would need to drive much farther before answering that habitability question, said Curiosity Project Scientist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena. We were able to take advantage of landing very close to an ancient streambed and lake. Now we want to learn more about how environmental conditions on Mars evolved, and we know where to go to do that. During its second year, Curiosity has been driving toward long-term science destinations on lower slopes of Mount Sharp. stanley quencher Those destinations are in an area beginning about 2 miles 3 kilometers southwest of the rover s current location, but an appetizer outcrop of a base layer of the mountain lies much closer -- less than one-third of a mile 500 meters from Curiosity. The rover team is calling the outcrop Pahrump Hills. For a Lqyo Willow Returns in a New Clip From the Disney+ Show

Using the same density and from our perspective on Earth, the concentration is comparable to roughly 5,000 in an area the size of t stanley butelka he full moon, or around one bill stanley canada ion across the entire sky.The astonishing image was made using data collected over seven million seconds, or eleven and a half weeks stanley cup , of observations by Chandra, NASA Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope GMRT in India. It was presented at the 229th American Astronomical Society meeting in Grapevine, Texas, this week.Astronomers also discovered that two of the most powerful phenomena in the Universe have combined to create what is called a 8216 tupendous cosmic particle accelerator ;. This discovery solves a long-standing mystery in galaxy cluster research.A supermassive black hole and two giant galaxy clusters called Abell 3411 and Abell 3412, located about two billion light years from Earth and each weighing about a millio
