That night, Joan danced again, thinking of the mysterious lady

Early in the morning she heard a knock at her door

It was her!

Her name was interesting, 224 Z12, was it foreign?

She explained to Joan how she had seen her dancing in her home and was mesmerized and had to meet her

After a long discussion, they decided to dance themselves, but something about this felt special

October 17th 2007 - Club Infinity - Buffalo, NY Freshmen year of college I got "into photography" , I had no idea what I was doing. I had a janky Konica Minolta z12 (I think), everyone else had fancy Canons or Sony DSLRs with telephoto lenses or fisheye. This camera had been thru a few Warped Tours and it barely worked. A year prior I had discovered @.circasurvive on Pandora of all places and I was hooked. This was my second (maybe third) time seeing the band live. I have no idea if I took photos of Dear and the Headlights or Fear Before the March of Flames - but these three images always blew my mind, there's no filters or editing here... just some magical button mashing.. I still don't know how to use Fstops. I ended up printing these at a Kodak kiosk and eventually was able to meet @.anthonygreen666 and the rest of the guys before their show the following year where Anthony autographed the first one for me. I decided to share these after having a chat with @.debrisfragments at the Bug Jar last night. He always takes killer photos and is really doing a great job at preserving music history at the venue. After rambling for awhile about this camera (much like I'm doing right now) I realized I had no way of showing him my brief attempts at pursuing photography. So here we are, reading all the way to the end of my 3001st piece of content for the machine. FIN

James Webb Telescope Uncovers Possible Dark Stars. Read full article here

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has made a groundbreaking discovery, capturing images that suggest the existence of "dark stars." These enigmatic objects, potentially much larger and brighter than our sun, are believed to be powered by the annihilation of dark matter particles. The findings, made by a team of astrophysicists led by Katherine Freese at the University of Texas at Austin, could provide vital insights into the elusive nature of dark matter, a fundamental puzzle in the realm of physics. In this article, we delve into the significance of this discovery and its implications for our understanding of the universe.

Unveiling the Dark Stars

The recent analysis of JWST images has revealed three intriguing objects, initially identified as galaxies in December 2022 as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES). These objects, designated as JADES-GS-z13-0, JADES-GS-z12-0, and JADES-GS-z11-0, are now being considered potential dark stars. Dark stars, if confirmed, hold the key to unraveling the mysteries of dark matter, which accounts for approximately 25% of the universe's composition. Read full article here

Webb Telescope catches glimpse of possible first-ever ‘dark stars’

Stars beam brightly out of the darkness of space thanks to fusion, atoms melding together and releasing energy. But what if there’s another way to power a star?

A team of three astrophysicists — Katherine Freese at The University of Texas at Austin, in collaboration with Cosmin Ilie and Jillian Paulin ’23 at Colgate University — analyzed images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and found three bright objects that might be “dark stars,” theoretical objects much bigger and brighter than our sun, powered by particles of dark matter annihilating. If confirmed, dark stars could reveal the nature of dark matter, one of the deepest unsolved problems in all of physics.

“Discovering a new type of star is pretty interesting all by itself, but discovering it’s dark matter that’s powering this—that would be huge,” said Freese, director of the Weinberg Institute for Theoretical Physics and the Jeff and Gail Kodosky Endowed Chair in Physics at UT Austin.

Although dark matter makes up about 25% of the universe, its nature has eluded scientists. Scientists believe it consists of a new type of elementary particle, and the hunt to detect such particles is on. Among the leading candidates are Weakly Interacting Massive Particles. When they collide, these particles annihilate themselves, depositing heat into collapsing clouds of hydrogen and converting them into brightly shining dark stars. The identification of supermassive dark stars would open up the possibility of learning about the dark matter based on their observed properties.

The research is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Follow-up observations from JWST of the objects’ spectroscopic properties — including dips or excess of light intensity in certain frequency bands — could help confirm whether these candidate objects are indeed dark stars.

Confirming the existence of dark stars might also help solve a problem created by JWST: There seem to be too many large galaxies too early in the universe to fit the predictions of the standard model of cosmology.

“It’s more likely that something within the standard model needs tuning, because proposing something entirely new, as we did, is always less probable,” Freese said. “But if some of these objects that look like early galaxies are actually dark stars, the simulations of galaxy formation agree better with observations.”

The three candidate dark stars (JADES-GS-z13-0, JADES-GS-z12-0, and JADES-GS-z11-0) were originally identified as galaxies in December 2022 by the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES). Using spectroscopic analysis, the JADES team confirmed the objects were observed at times ranging from about 320 million to 400 million years after the Big Bang, making them some of the earliest objects ever seen.

“When we look at the James Webb data, there are two competing possibilities for these objects,” Freese said. “One is that they are galaxies containing millions of ordinary, population-III stars. The other is that they are dark stars. And believe it or not, one dark star has enough light to compete with an entire galaxy of stars.”

Dark stars could theoretically grow to be several million times the mass of our sun and up to 10 billion times as bright as the sun.

“We predicted back in 2012 that supermassive dark stars could be observed with JWST,” said Ilie, assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Colgate University. “As shown in our recently published PNAS article, we already found three supermassive dark star candidates when analyzing the JWST data for the four high redshift JADES objects spectroscopically confirmed by Curtis-Lake et al, and I am confident we will soon identify many more.”

The idea for dark stars originated in a series of conversations between Freese and Doug Spolyar, at the time a graduate student at the University of California, Santa Cruz. They wondered: What does dark matter do to the first stars to form in the universe? Then they reached out to Paolo Gondolo, an astrophysicist at the University of Utah, who joined the team. After several years of development, they published their first paper on this theory in the journal Physical Review Letters in 2008.

Together, Freese, Spolyar and Gondolo developed a model that goes something like this: At the centers of early protogalaxies, there would be very dense clumps of dark matter, along with clouds of hydrogen and helium gas. As the gas cooled, it would collapse and pull in dark matter along with it. As the density increased, the dark matter particles would increasingly annihilate, adding more and more heat, which would prevent the gas from collapsing all the way down to a dense enough core to support fusion as in an ordinary star. Instead, it would continue to gather more gas and dark matter, becoming big, puffy and much brighter than ordinary stars. Unlike ordinary stars, the power source would be evenly spread out, rather than concentrated in the core. With enough dark matter, dark stars could grow to be several million times the mass of our sun and up to 10 billion times as bright as the sun.

Drop Soldier 0/0/01

-

Record Size: Largest at 30 feet

Equipped with 17-MP Water Cannon, Carbide Infused Flamethrower, and a Multi-Ammunition Mortar Launcher (carrying Shrapnel, Disruption, and Riot shells).

Every drop soldier is required to be piloted by a human, as declared by the Lossless War Agreement. These are referred to as drop pilots.

Pilot is allowed a few chosen items which pass safety qualifications and inspection before launch, and is supplied with food, water, and other utilities expected to last 3 months.

Drop soldiers are given their name from their entry onto battlefields, being launched from drop ships and onto land. Pilots cannot survive the speed of the landing, so they remain on the planet and will prepare the site for the drop and enter as soon as is safe.

The first use of drop soliders was done by Earth, dropping onto the Titanian military base Z12. The pilot of the solider was discovered to be an espionage agent who could decide the optimal drop site and time for an effective attack. It was successful, and led to further research into how drop soldiers can be used by other planetary militaries.

I cannot speak much for other planets, but I have gotten to speak to a few pilots of these walking fortresses. They mention how cramped the soldiers can feel, having little room to move even with their size. Your bed is a seat for your desk to eat, and that is the most of the free room you have aside from the cockpit.

Some designs are built purely for display and in things such as parades, not combat capable, but still functional for pilots. I've seen a fair few of these, never gotten close though. What they can really do just terrifies me, and I can't ever see them as harmless.

Due articoli pubblicati sulla rivista "The Astrophysical Journal Letters" riportano i risultati dell'analisi di osservazioni dell'ammasso galattico Abell 2744 e dell'area circostante con il telescopio spaziale James Webb. Due team di ricercatori guidati rispettivamente da Marco Castellano dell'INAF (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica) di Roma e da Rohan Naidu dell'Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics del MIT hannos esaminato in particolare due galassie lontanissime. La galassia chiamata GLASS-z12 dal secondo team potrebbe essere la più antica identificata finora perché secondo le stime risale a 350 milioni di anni dopo il Big Bang. L'altra galassia, chiamata GLASS-z10, secondo le stime risale a 450 milioni di anni dopo il Big Bang.

Joan Delicate quickly got to work on practicing her writing skills, but it wasn't too long before her mind was clogged and ideas failed to flow

So what's an uninspired girl to do in the new decade of 1920?

Go dancing!

Joan was a little lonely, but she wouldn't admit that directly to anyone, but none of the men in this new town really caught her eye

Stepping outside for air, she noticed people roller skating! She figured why not give it a try!

It was much more difficult than it appeared, but across the way she noticed someone who nearly hypnotized her gaze

A stunning woman in clothing unlike she had ever seen, although the people passing by were disgusted and afraid of her bold, revealing attire, Joan was mesmerized..

What was her name? Who was she? She barely got to speak to her before the strange woman left, but Joan knew that night, she was inspired
