Happy birthday to the late John Tukey, who coined the terms “software” and “bit” (short for “binary digit”). He would have turned 1101110 today: nyti.ms/2X7cxr5 v/The New York Times, photo by Alfred Eisenstadt

At 15 billion miles away, the signal I send to Earth is a lot fainter than it once was. Currently, a single 70-meter Deep Space Network antenna can receive my signal, but as I travel farther, they'll need the combined receiving power of up to six radio frequency antennas! -V1

🔭 Découverte d’une nouvelle planète mineure dans le Système solaire ! Le télescope Subaru dévoile 2023 KQ 14, surnommé Ammonite, un nouveau sednoïde aux confins de notre Système. Cet objet intrigue par son orbite et pourrait remette en cause l’existence de la Planète Neuf. 🧵⬇️

✨ Vivons-nous dans un trou noir ? Une hypothèse sérieuse et fascinante : et si notre Univers n’était pas né du vide, mais d’un effondrement ? Le Big Bang ne serait alors que la sortie d’un trou noir. De récentes observations de James Webb jettent le trouble. Explications.🧵⬇️

📡Our 66 cosmic antennas, each weighing 100 tons, can be moved and connected to ground bases known as ‘pads'. ✨This flexibility allows the array to be arranged in different configurations, depending on what part of the cold Universe is being observed. 📷: Y. Villalón

Yes, it happens to be the case that the classic 'The Classical Theory of Fields' by Landau and Lifshitz is publicly available on the Internet Archive, and if I were you, I'd go and check it out.
