The earth’s internal layers. NASA. Credit: Goddard Media Studios Scientists have dated the birth of the solar system to about 4.57 billion years ago. About 60 million years later a “giant impact” collision between the infant Earth and a Mars-sized body called Theia created the moon. Now, new research suggests that the remains of the large object that collided with the young Earth to form the moon are still identifiable deep within the planet as two large lumps. These lumps make up about 8% of the volume of the Earth’s mantle, which is the rocky zone between the Earth’s iron…

Lee Rice and Marie Brazier bought dud bullets from military memorabilia sites and used them to create live ammunition to be used in their guns. The guns were made from scratch and sold out of their factory in Hailsham. Three other men helped to make and distribute the firearms. A trial at Hove Crown Court heard that more than 350 rounds were bought over a five-month period in 2018. The rounds would then be filled with gunpowder so they could be used in the manufactured pistols. Kyle Wood, 34, from Littlehampton and Greg Akehurst, 34, of no fixed abode were…

The “…Baby One More Time” crooner took to Instagram to share two throwback photos of her and the 33-year-old “Karma” songwriter, including one from 2003 and one from 2008, and added a caption that admitted she has a “girl crush” on her. She also revealed how Taylor requested to meet her before their first introduction. “This is way back when but kinda cool … During my Oops Tour, I got a knock at my door.

For many startups, getting a spot in an accelerator program like Y Combinator or TechStars is like winning the golden ticket to Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. Accelerators offer a wealth of opportunities that can make the difference between a great idea that doesn’t achieve its potential and one that leads to an IPO. We’re accustomed to seeing accelerators work for companies disrupting travel, payment processing or cloud storage, but what if that model could work outside the ambit of the VC mill? What if a little bit of investment, a splash of mentoring and practical support, a slew of introductions,…

Bitcoin (BTC) is on target to end the week with gains of about 6%, indicating continued demand from the bulls. MicroStrategy co-founder Michael Saylor said during a speech at the 2023 Australia Crypto Convention on Nov. 10 that Bitcoin’s demand on a monthly basis could surge between two to 10 times by the end of 2024. Additionally, the halving will reduce the supply by half. Saylor expects both these events will cause the price “to adjust up.” With almost a general consensus that Bitcoin’s price will move higher in 2024, analysts are busy projecting how high the rally could reach. Using…

Weather extremes, such as heatwaves and torrential rainfalls, are becoming more frequent and more intense across the United States under climate change. In late September of this year, flash-flooding surged down neighborhood streets and subway stairways in New York City, as a historic rainfall led to canceled flights and closed roads and city officials urged people to stay at home or shelter in place. Some areas of the city saw up to 2.58 inches of rain in one day, nearly 50% more than the city sewer system’s maximum capacity, causing wastewater problems for many low-lying homes and businesses. Intuitively, when…

Crowds gathered at memorials and wreaths were laid to remember people who died in wars. In Hove, people gathered around the war memorial in Grand Avenue to mark Remembrance Day on Saturday. Air Marshal Peter Miller, who was in charge of organising the service, said: “In the last ten or 15 years they have become much more important and we see more people attending and taking notice of them. “I think it is very important for the nation, these rituals are observed across the country and it pulls people together.” Brighton’s annual Remembrance Sunday parade took place at the Old Steine.…
