It's an infinite time and defined space analysis.
What would your life be like without the benefits that space and years of research affords us?
It’s a question that Daniel Baker frequently asks in his role as director of the University of Colorado Boulder’s Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP).
Imagine a world without cell phones or TV or telecommunications. No Global Positioning System (GPS) to help get us safely to our destinations. No weather photos or forecasting equipment.
“Without those things, many would revert to a ‘Stone Age existence’ pretty quickly,” Baker says.
Luckily, what we take for granted are the same things that Baker and his colleagues at LASP think about every day. The lab recently celebrated its 70th year of existence, but it is exceptional for more than its longevity.
“It’s unique in the world, an extraordinary collection of people with all the skills necessary to carry out exciting research and engineering,” says Baker, who has been directing LASP for more than two decades. “What keeps me here is the fact that I am constantly amazed, constantly surprised, constantly impressed with the ability of the team of people that we have put together to go far beyond the expectations – to do more than anyone thought we could do.”
There have been times when the team was asked to have a mission payload ready in six months, instead of the usual timeline of two or three years. There have been missions when the team gave back money to the government, something that is almost unheard of in the aerospace industry, Baker says. Even though LASP had never specifically built high-energy particle detectors, and some expressed skepticism about the lab’s plan to do it, the team built instruments that have “broken all the records. They have performed so beautifully and have revealed completely new things that haven’t been known about the radiation environment around the Earth.”

On clear nights we can get glimpses of the aurora but not likely this time due to our forecast of cloud or fog and rain with intermittent showers here on the wet coast

So although there is possibility it's like playing Russian roulette of a lottery that a solar flare that impacted 9200 years ago in Sweden could infact impact earth again as a statistical portability of s9ner or later.....

If he was out of the hospital, they would say so right?

A federal judge on Monday agreed to delay once again the sentencing of former Seminole County tax collector Joel Greenberg whose arrest led to an investigation of U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz so that he can continue cooperating with federal prosecutors. Prosecutors must update the judge in mid-May.
This can't be good news for Jail Bait Gaetz.

Ukraine Deep Faked video
CNN BUSINESS -
In late March, a false video circulated online that seemed to show
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky telling his soldiers to
surrender to the Russian invasion. The video — a mediocre lip-sync
of Zelensky’s face and voice — was the product of artificial
intelligence manipulation, commonly known as a deepfake.
It is unclear who made the deepfake, but the Ukrainian government
had been warning for weeks that Russia may push manipulated media.

Since this happened during Biden's presidency it is obviously all his fault.

So now the Russian minister of lies & propaganda is taking a page from the Trump & Fox News playbook and claiming the horrible images of dead lying on the streets with bullets to the back of their heads, hands tied behind their back or maimed in bullet-ridden cars
......is all fake news!
It's all "staged" by the west to make Putin look bad.

Germany essentially tells Putin to F O
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on Thursday
to impose ruble pricing for gas on buyers from what Moscow
considers "unfriendly" countries.
Germany rejects the change, and its economy minister said
on Thursday it would not be "blackmailed by Putin."

Germany, France and other EU governments have rejected the Kremlin's ultimatum, insisting they won't be "blackmailed" by Moscow into changing the terms of existing contracts.

Germany, France and other EU governments have rejected the Kremlin's ultimatum, insisting they won't be "blackmailed" by Moscow into changing the terms of existing contracts.
"Existing contracts do not include an obligation to pay in rubles and that they must be respected", Paolo Gentiloni, the European Union's top economy official and a former Italian prime minister, told CNN's Richard Quest on Friday. That means the mechanism for swapping euros for rubles as proposed by Moscow won't fly.
"It is an attempt to circumvent European sanctions and to blackmail the European Union," he said.
The Kremlin said payments for gas being delivered now would fall due towards the end of the month or the beginning of May, which is why Russia hadn't immediately shut off the flow of gas to Europe.

Now after those existing contracts expire then Putin can whine and stamp his feet and demand payment in rubles

When Thurgood Marshall was confirmed in 1967 to become the first black man on the Supreme Court, 16 of 22 senators from the 11 states of the old Confederacy voted no or didn't vote.
When Ketanji Brown Jackson was confirmed today to become the first black woman, 18 of 22 voted no.
Some things never change...

Good point, Midnight1...
And in a related matter,
in 1981 when President Reagan (I voted for him) had Judge Sandra Day OConnor nominated as the first woman to serve on the Supreme Court, OConnor - who is WHITE - was confirmed 99 - 0.
Forty years later when President Biden nominates the eminently qualified Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, Jackson - who is BLACK - was confirmed only by 53 - 47 (all 47 opposing votes by republicans)

Deadly avian flu sends egg prices soaring
New York CNN Business — A deadly and highly infectious avian flu is forcing US farmers to kill millions of egg-laying hens, reducing the country’s egg supply and driving up prices.
On Thursday, retailers paid between $2.80 and $2.89 for a dozen large grade A white eggs in the Midwest, according to the USDA’s daily Midwest regional egg report. That’s more than double the roughly $1.25 they cost in March.
Midwest prices serve as a national benchmark.
obviously the inflated prices r all joe bidens fault

Higher feed costs and supply chain difficulties have made many food items more expensive this year, and eggs are no exception. But this particular spike is being driven by the highly pathogenic avian influenza that has been detected in flocks across the country, Earnest noted. It’s the worst US outbreak of the bird flu since 2015.

and the black woman who is vp
and all democrats of course
Though the flu is deadly for poultry, it is “primarily an animal health issue,” according to the Centers for Disease Control, which added that it believes “the risk to the general public’s health from current H5N1 bird flu viruses is low.”
Because the flu is so contagious and deadly to birds, the USDA protocol is to kill infected flocks to curb the spread of the disease.

While I pray this isn't shaping the way you are implying here,
it's hard to ignore the obvious.
