The Space, Astronomy & Science Podcast. SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 26 *The Brightest and Fastest Growing Black Hole Quasar Ever Seen Astronomers have uncovered a cosmic colossus: the most luminous quasar known, powered by a black hole 17 billion times the mass of the Sun and growing at a staggering rate. The quasar J0529-4351, situated over 12 billion light-years away, is a beacon from the early universe, challenging our understanding of black hole formation and growth. *Supernova 1987A's Hidden Heart: The Neutron Star Within NASA's Webb Space Telescope has pierced through the dusty veil of Supernova 1987A, revealing emissions indicative of a neutron star's presence. This discovery resolves a long-standing debate and provides a glimpse into the violent stellar processes that forge these dense remnants. *Surviving the Cosmic Rays: Earth's First Life and the Shield of Manganese How did life's early building blocks endure Earth's intense radiation? New research suggests that cell-like structures with manganese-based antioxidants could have been life's ancient protectors, enabling the survival and evolution of the first organisms in a gamma-ray-blasted world. *Leap Year Explained: Why February Gains an Extra Day As February 29 approaches, we demystify the leap year phenomenon. Learn how this calendrical correction ensures our timekeeping stays in harmony with Earth's orbit, and discover the historical and astronomical significance behind the extra day in February. Join us on SpaceTime as we delve into the depths of black holes, witness the aftermath of stellar explosions, and explore the primordial resilience of life on our planet. Tune in for a journey through the cosmos and the intricacies of our celestial calendar.

Oh look, some scientists believe FTL travel without breaking relativity is possible
The flip of perspective when traveling superluminal and thus perceiving other superluminal objects as subluminal is wild and has all sorts of crazy implications for navigation and perception.

hello
Today I learned that non-information can travel faster than light, and from certain perspectives stuff can seem to travel faster than light.

One of the only Duros made ships mentioned in Canon. The Mneffe-class Superluminal. 
The Mneffe-class Superluminal was comprised of a long, central fuselage slung beneath a semi-circular wing.[1]
Capable of carrying up to six passengers and twenty metric tons of cargo, the Mneffe-class required a pilot and copilot to operate, though could be flown with a skeleton crew of one.[1] For defense, the vessel was armed with a turret-mounted double laser cannon.[1]
In my fanfic I am in the process of writing, Shriv heeds the call of Mon Mothma with two other Duros. He has stolen his transport ship that he used under his employment for CorDuro, the Mneffe-class Superluminal. He’s new on the scene, and when the leadership at Dantooine asks him to identify himself he says ... 
“We’re uh ... Danger Squadron.” Could have been a little more original, Suurgav.
Of course, eventually he probably LOSES this ship somehow - a terrible battle, perhaps? At the Destruction of Yavin 4 after the downing of the first Death Star? Maybe he loans it to someone while he flies his x-wing and they get blown up? I’ll figure out a way to explain how he winds up aboard the Restoration as his main vessel before the BF 2 timeline, I just think him having a Duros made ship for a bit is a kind of cool idea. ;x
-------
Mon Mothma’s speech:
"This is Senator Mon Mothma, I have been called a traitor for speaking out against a corrupt Galactic Senate. A Senate manipulated by the sinister tactics of the Emperor. For too long I have watched the heavy hand of the Empire strangle our liberties, stifling our freedoms in the name of ensuring our safety. No longer! Despite Imperial threats, despite the Emperor himself, I have no fear as I take new action. For I am not alone. Beginning today we stand together as allies. I hereby resign from the Senate to fight for you, not from the distant hall of politics but from the front lines. We will not rest until we bring an end to the Empire, until we restore our Republic! Are you with me?”
