El visitante vuelve: El cometa interestelar 3I/ATLAS reaparece con datos nuevos y un cambio de velocidad que intriga a la NASA. Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo Escucha todos los días el Flash DiarioDespués de pasar oculto tras el Sol durante octubre, el visitante interestelar 3I/ATLAS volvió a escena con novedades que están desconcertando a la comunidad científica. NASA ha confirmado que el objeto cambió su velocidad y trayectoria de forma que no encaja con las fuerzas conocidas. Al mismo tiempo, su color se tornó azul brillante y su brillo aumentó más de lo esperado. En este episodio vamos a repasar qué se ha descubierto desde su paso por el perihelio, qué está analizando la NASA y cuándo podremos volver a observarlo desde la Tierra. El 29 de octubre, el cometa 3I/ATLAS alcanzó su punto más cercano al Sol. Los observatorios que siguieron su paso registraron un aumento repentino de luminosidad y un cambio de color: de verde a azul. Pocos días después, NASA confirmó algo más extraño aún: una aceleración no gravitacional, un impulso que lo movió fuera de su ruta calculada.Los científicos del Laboratorio de Propulsión a Chorro publicaron que el objeto avanza ahora a unos 245 000 kilómetros por hora, un incremento difícil de justificar solo con la acción del calor solar. Harvard, la Agencia Espacial Europea y el Instituto Coreano de Astronomía están revisando la información más reciente mientras el cometa vuelve a hacerse visible antes de continuar su viaje fuera del sistema solar. Volvió… y ahora se comporta de forma imposible. Las nuevas observaciones provienen de telescopios en Chile, Sudáfrica, Australia y del James Webb Space Telescope, que captó un halo azul a su alrededor. El análisis espectral indica una proporción inusual de dióxido de carbono ocho veces superior al agua, y presencia de níquel metálico en niveles que no existen en cometas del sistema solar.La luz de 3I/ATLAS muestra además una polarización negativa extrema, un patrón de vibración que no se había visto antes. Para el astrónomo coreano Moon Hong-kyu, esto sugiere que el cometa se formó en una región de temperatura extremadamente baja, muy diferente de cualquier entorno cercano al Sol.Las observaciones también confirman que su núcleo mide unos once kilómetros y que la masa ronda los 33 000 millones de toneladas, lo que lo convierte en el objeto interestelar más grande jamás detectado. El comportamiento de 3I/ATLAS ha abierto un debate científico y político. La congresista estadounidense Anna Paulina Luna pidió a la NASA publicar las imágenes tomadas por la cámara HiRISE del orbitador de Marte y por el rover Perseverance, captadas cuando el cometa pasó a unos 30 millones de kilómetros del planeta rojo.Al mismo tiempo, Avi Loeb, físico de Harvard, enumeró diez anomalías en su trayectoria, entre ellas la aceleración no explicada, la luz polarizada, el cambio de color y una coincidencia angular con la dirección del famoso “Wow! Signal” de 1977. Según sus cálculos, la probabilidad de que todos estos fenómenos ocurran por azar es del 0,005 %.Mientras tanto, en internet proliferan teorías sin evidencia que lo describen como una nave o una esfera de materia oscura, pero la NASA insiste en que no hay señales de tecnología ni amenaza para la Tierra. Lo comprobable es fascinante por sí mismo. La NASA detectó un aumento de velocidad justo después del perihelio, seguido de una ligera desviación en la órbita. El fenómeno podría deberse a chorros de gas que actuaron como un “empuje natural”, aunque no se ha observado la cantidad necesaria de material expulsado.El James Webb realizará en diciembre una nueva campaña de observación para buscar una nube de gas y polvo que confirme o descarte esa hipótesis. Si no la encuentra, los astrónomos tendrán que revisar las explicaciones actuales sobre la dinámica de los objetos interestelares.Por ahora, lo único seguro es que 3I/ATLAS sigue acelerando y alejándose, y que el 19 de diciembre estará en su punto más cercano a la Tierra: unos 270 millones de kilómetros. El cometa se podrá observar desde el hemisferio norte en las madrugadas de diciembre con telescopios de al menos 30 centímetros de apertura. Los mejores momentos para buscarlo serán antes del amanecer, hacia el horizonte este.La Agencia Espacial Europea, a través de su misión JUICE, también tiene programadas observaciones entre el 2 y el 25 de noviembre desde la órbita de Júpiter. Se espera que esas imágenes, junto con las de NASA y KASI, permitan comparar la composición de 3I/ATLAS con los cometas Borisov y ʻOumuamua, los otros dos visitantes interestelares confirmados.Mientras tanto, los equipos científicos coreanos destacan que su alto contenido de níquel y la escasez de agua apuntan a un origen en una zona fría del disco grueso de la galaxia, quizá un remanente de material primitivo expulsado hace millones de años desde un sistema estelar extinguido. 3I/ATLAS sigue sorprendiendo a los astrónomos con cada nueva observación. Su cambio de velocidad y su color azul brillante plantean preguntas abiertas sobre cómo se comportan los objetos interestelares. El 19 de diciembre será su punto más cercano a la Tierra. Puedes seguir su recorrido en tiempo real en “Eyes on the Solar System” y en Flash Diario. El cometa 3I/ATLAS reapareció con color azul y velocidad inexplicable. NASA lo estudia antes de su paso cercano en diciembre.
Ever since I heard the Argentine saxophonist Gato Barbieri back in the Seventies, I've been fascinated by musicians from South America who found their way to jazz.Lately there seems to be a strong showing of contemporary musicians from various Latin American countries who not only play jazz but also mix certain Latin American folk traditions into their sound.So, this week I spoke with six of them: vocalist Claudia Acuña from Chile, Argentine vocalists Sofia Rei and Roxana Amed, Mexican vocalist Magos Herrera, guitarist/vocalist Camila Meza and tenor saxophonist Melissa Aldana.Each has a story about identity, living the jazz dream and how they came to jazz.Hopefully you'll use this roadmap to start your own journey into jazz, if you haven't already.- FelixMusic heard in this episode:Claudia Acuña - “Prelude To A Kiss”Sofia Rei - “El Gavilán”Gato Barieri - “To Be Continued”Roxana Amed - “Corazón delator”Mangos Herrera - “Luz de Luna”Camila Meza - “Utopia”Melissa Aldana - “A Purpose”Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

The November 4 edition of the AgNet News Hour was a celebration of California citrus, featuring Jesse Silva, Vice President of Kings River Packing, who joined hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill to share an upbeat outlook on the 2024–25 season. The longtime Central Valley leader, now in its eighth generation of family farming, is off to what Silva called “a high-quality, high-demand year” for California citrus. Silva explained that Kings River Packing and its affiliated companies, including Cobblestone Fruit and Gyra Packing, are operating at full capacity across their four facilities in Sanger, Reedley, and Orosi. “We're running 24/7 right now,” he said. “The fruit looks great, and the market is strong — especially for early navels, lemons, and mandarins.” Founded in the 1860s, Kings River's legacy began when the Hazelton family planted the first orange trees in Fresno County. Nearly 150 years later, Silva said the ninth generation is preparing to carry that heritage forward. “We're still family owned and operated, and that's something we're very proud of,” he said. “Every box we ship represents decades of hard work, and our goal is to keep that tradition alive.” Silva described a season that's running ahead of schedule thanks to ideal growing conditions in both the desert and Central Valley regions. Grapefruit, lemons, and mandarins from the desert gave the company an early jump, and now the focus shifts northward. “Our early navels are maturing beautifully,” he said. “The sugar is coming on strong, the color is fantastic, and consumers are ready for California fruit.” He also reported that this year's market fundamentals look favorable for growers. “The quality is high, imported volumes were lower than expected, and demand is strong both domestically and internationally,” Silva said. “Right now, pricing is solid across navels, mandarins, and lemons. The retailers are excited.” Beyond the fields, Silva discussed the company's continued investment in organic citrus, now entering its third full year of production. “It's still a niche, but it's growing steadily,” he said. “We're proud to be a year-round organic citrus supplier in oranges, lemons, and grapefruit.” Silva credited early fall rains for boosting color and size without harming the crop. “The timing was perfect,” he said. “Rain improves sizing, and the cool nights are bringing on that rich orange color everyone loves.” Papagni and McGill also highlighted Kings River's partnership with Farmsco USA, which sources citrus from Chile, Argentina, Peru, and Morocco to complement California's growing season. “It keeps our partners stocked year-round,” Silva explained. “It's about consistency — giving our customers California quality all twelve months of the year.” As the holidays approach, Silva encouraged Californians to buy local. “When you see Kings River on the label, you're supporting family farmers,” he said. “That means a lot to us — and it means you're getting the best citrus anywhere.”

Rodrigo Arellano nunca pensó dedicarse a la gastronomía. Era periodista y productor de cine, hasta que un viaje a Berlín cambió su vida.Años después, cofundó Tío Tomate, una de las pizzerías más queridas y exitosas de Chile, con ventas que superan los 7 millones de dólares al año.En esta conversación hablamos sobre cómo nació el proyecto, la importancia de la intuición, el poder del boca a boca y la filosofía detrás de un negocio hecho con alma.
En este especial de Día de Muertos vamos a hablar de lo bonito… y de lo que casi nadie cuenta. Porque sí, esta es la noche en la que ponemos flores, pan y café para los que ya se fueron. La noche en que les guardamos un lugar en la mesa y les decimos que todavía son parte de la casa. Pero también es la noche en la que abrimos la puerta, aunque no siempre podamos controlar quién entra. Hoy vamos a escuchar historias reales de personas que, con toda la intención de honrar a sus muertos, terminaron viviendo algo que las marcó para siempre: altares que se enojan cuando les quitas comida… visitas que no deberían haber probado la ofrenda… niños en la carretera que no deberían estar ahí… y seres que cruzan cuando ya estamos dormidos, incluso cuando lo único que pedimos es ver, una vez más, a alguien que amamos. Este episodio es un abrazo para quienes extrañan… y también una advertencia para quienes creen que el Día de Muertos es puro color y papel picado. —
Listen to the full episode on Patreon Part 2 follows the money flowing from US agencies and interests to anti-Liberation Theology figures in Latin America. We meet Jesuit operator Roger Vekemans, who in the 1960s drew funding from the CIA, USAID, West German bishops, and U.S. conservative foundations to undermine Liberation and Christian socialism in Chile and beyond. Nelson Rockefeller used Protestant missions as a model for soft power in the region, including the Summer Institute of Linguistics and their aviation-radio infrastructure (JAARS) that doubled as state and military logistics in Amazon frontiers. That infrastructure was part of a project to rewire communal lifeways into an individualism compatible with capitalism. But what about the “reverse boomerang”? Pope Leo XIV's Dilexi te: On Love for the Poor, is a pastoral yet pointed retrieval of Liberation Theology's moral center, in which inequality is posited as the root of social ills. Leo rejects trickle-down myths, insists on solidarity with migrants, and quietly sidelines the old Marxism panic. By grounding church mission in the lived poverty of Jesus himself, Leo offers a calm but withering rebuke to Christofascism and the politics of exclusion. Learn more about your ad choices.

Gonzalo Zamora, desde Chile, nos revela los secretos de cómo mantenerse a flote en el competitivo mundo de las ventas en Amazon. Su experiencia personal le ha enseñado que las inteligencias artificiales pueden ser aliadas invaluables al ahorrar tiempo, pero siempre con la precaución de verificar la información que proporcionan.

El tercero de tres capítulos especiales sobre las amenazas a la democracia que se ciernen sobre Chile en esta elección presidencial. Analizamos el clima social y político que promueven y generan las candidaturas presidenciales, sus respectivos entornos políticos, y lo que sería esperable en sus eventuales gobiernos. Nos focalizamos en el fomento a la polarización afectiva extrema, la redefinición de la ciudadanía en términos de discurso y propuesta, en las campañas sistemáticas de desinformación y en la generación de un clima de crisis e ingobernabilidad como justificación para avanzar agendas autoritarias y de concentración de poder. Terminamos esta miniserie preguntándonos cuáles son las mayores amenazas, y qué pueden hacer las instituciones y la sociedad civil para prepararse.Programa grabado a las 12:00 del viernes 31 de octubre del 2025, cada uno desde su casa, por Javier Sajuria, y Davor Mimica.--Si deseas hacer un aporte mensual (lo que quieras, desde $1.000) a Democracia en LSD, para fortalecer nuestra comunidad y que podamos hacer más y mejores podcasts, lo puedes hacer en ESTE LINK.

Sharing about his experience attending Holy Cross schools growing up in Santiago, he realized at a young age that he wanted to serve. With degrees in Legal Sciences and Public Policy, his political career has spanned nearly 30 years, and he attributes both his longevity and impact to having a strong purpose. He shared the importance of serving others as a primary motivation for public service, and stressed the importance of all people to lead with hope, peace, and justice – fighting for the human rights of others.Featured Speakers:- Tom Schreier '84, University of Notre Dame- Claudio Orrego, Santiago Metropolitan Region, ChileRead this episode's recap over on the University of Notre Dame's open online learning community platform, ThinkND: https://go.nd.edu/29530a.This podcast is a part of the ThinkND Series titled Leadership in Public Conversation.

The Women, Peace and Security (WPS) Agenda – launched 25 years ago through Security Council resolution 1325 – recognized women are affected by wars in specific ways and must also play a distinct role in resolving them.Mexico, Chile and Colombia have all adopted foreign policies which emphasise gender equality in diplomacy, peacebuilding and development – but more needs to be done for women to be meaningfully included in peace processes and conflict resolution. UN News's Ileana Exaras spoke to Laura Flores, Director of the Americas Division in the UN's political affairs and peacebuilding department, about the progress and challenges that continue to affect women in politics across Latin America.
This week, in honor of Halloween, we're presenting two classic stories about facing fears for science.Part 1: As a newly minted PhD student in geology, Erik Klemetti starts to question his decisions when Aucanquilcha, a 20,000-foot volcano in Chile, proves difficult to tame. Part 2: Explorer George Kourounis finds himself growing increasingly anxious as he prepares to enter a fiery sinkhole known as the “Doorway to Hell.” Erik Klemetti is an associate professor of Geosciences and volcanologist at Denison University. He works on volcanoes all over the planet, from Chile to New Zealand to the Cascades of Oregon and California. His research focuses on how crystals record the events inside a volcano before and between eruptions. For the past 9 years, he's been teaching all the “hard rock” classes at Denison. He also writes for Discover Magazine. His blog, Rocky Planet, have been running since Fall 2017. Before that, he wrote Eruptions, a blog about volcanoes, for Wired Science for 9 years. You can also find him on Twitter (@eruptionsblog), variously tweeting about volcanoes, baseball (mostly Red Sox and Mariners) and his love of punk. George Kourounis is a renowned global explorer and storm chaser who specializes in documenting extreme forces of nature including: tornadoes, hurricanes, volcanoes, deserts, caves, avalanches and more. He is an Explorer In Residence for The Royal Canadian Geographical Society, served as the Chairman of the Explorers Club Canadian Chapter, and has received several awards and medals for his efforts. He frequently finds himself driving into the eye of fierce storms, or descending ropes into actively erupting volcanic craters, often while hosting television programs including “Angry Planet” and others. He has given five TEDx talks, and has addressed the United Nations Environmental Emergencies Forum. George's expeditions have taken him to over 80 countries on all seven continents to such far-flung places as: Madagascar, Turkmenistan, Vanuatu, Greenland, North Korea, Myanmar, and Antarctica.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of “The Business of Blueberries,” Kasey Cronquist, president of the U.S. Highbush Council (USHBC) and the North American Blueberry Council, is joined by Ben Escoe, president and CEO of Twin River Berries. Twin River is a vertically integrated berry company built on a foundation of family farming and global reach. Escoe leads a network of U.S. farms and partners across Mexico, Chile and Peru, working to ensure year-round availability of high-quality blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. He was first introduced to agriculture when his father started a small organic berry operation while Escoe was studying finance in college. He recognized through that experience that “farming requires a lot of innovation” and quickly developed a passion for blueberry production.“ Success starts with our farms and with our growers. When farms succeed, we succeed. Everybody in the supply chain succeeds. … It's not all about just operating for the sake of profits. It's about building an ecosystem that works for everybody involved in genetics and markets and supply chain. Those are all tools that feed that ecosystem, and if you can make the whole system thrive, then we feel that's when you've really built something lasting.” – Ben Escoe Topics covered include: An introduction to Escoe.The beginnings and evolution of Twin River Berries and how the company has grown and expanded over time. The opportunity the variety Peachy Blue is providing to the blueberry industry.Crop ReportThe Blueberry Crop Report is an update on crop conditions and markets throughout important blueberry growing areas. You'll hear from Luis Vegas in Peru and Mario Ramirez in Mexico. This was recorded on October 23, 2025.
The U.S.-to-LATAM corridor is heating up fast, and the rules of getting paid are changing even faster. We sit down with PPRO's Therese Hudak to unpack fresh insights from their new Almanac, spotlighting what actually moves the needle for conversion and growth across Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Argentina. From the meteoric rise of PIX in Brazil to the quiet power of cash vouchers in Mexico, we break down the methods your customers already use and why adopting them can transform your cross-border results.We explore how real-time bank transfers and digital wallets are overtaking traditional rails, what super app ecosystems like Mercado Pago, Nubank, Rappi, and PicPay mean for reach and retention, and why local acquiring often beats cross-border processing on authorization rates, costs, and customer trust. You'll hear concrete examples of local-only card schemes, the hidden fees that trigger chargebacks, and practical ways to present clean, transparent pricing that keeps buyers coming back.We also dive into vertical-specific tactics. Retail remains the growth engine with fashion, electronics, and beauty leading spend, while mobile-first behavior and social commerce reshape discovery and checkout. Gaming and SaaS face unique subscription hurdles as issuers scrutinize merchant-initiated transactions; we share ways to align with LATAM's installment culture and use wallet flexibility to lift acceptance. To wrap it up, we provide a simple checklist: activate local access, accept the right methods, manage performance - to help you enter, learn, and scale with confidence.If LATAM is on your roadmap, this conversation gives you the playbook to act now.
