#HOTEL MARS: SPACEX: COSTS OF FAILS UNKNOWN. DOUGLAS MESSIER, DAVID LIVINGSTON 1957
John and I talked with Doug Messier for a single Hotel Mars program on SpaceX launches, the latest with Starship, including troubleshooting recent launch failures. Doug also talked costs, testing, technical problems, and timelines going forward for essential SpaceX and Starship related programs. Doug reviewed Block 1,2, and 3 for Super Heavy though he said things were not yet clear fro Block 3. Doug was asked about an ongoing risk for debris falling on populated areas. Don't miss his comment on this potential risk factor given he said they had a very thin and narrow needed to fly through over the Gulf. See the review on TSS site for this show and on our Substack page, doctorspace.substack.com.
Lots of star clusters adorn the evening skies of summer. That’s because the glowing path of the Milky Way climbs high into the sky. It’s the combined glow of millions of stars that outline the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy. So not only does it contain lots of individual stars, it hosts many star clusters as well. But a few clusters are far from the path of the Milky Way. One example is Messier 5. It’s in Serpens Caput – the head of the serpent – a region with not much around it. M5 is a globular cluster – a big ball packed with several hundred thousand stars. Such clusters are scattered all across the sky. Some appear in the disk, but they’re not part of the disk – they loop high above and below it. Globular clusters are the oldest members of the galaxy. And M5 is one of the oldest – 12 billion years or older. That means its original stars were born when the universe was only about one-tenth of its present age. Any stars that were more massive than the Sun have burned out. So the remaining original stars are smaller and fainter than the Sun. There’s evidence that a second wave of starbirth rippled through M5 well after the cluster was formed. Some of these stars can still rival the Sun – the “youngsters” of an ancient star cluster. Messier 5 is high in the south at nightfall. Through binoculars, it looks like a fuzzy star. A small telescope reveals some of the cluster’s individual stars. Script by Damond Benningfield
In this episode of Death Clock, Brent speaks with Dr. Steve Messier, a leading expert on osteoarthritis and biomechanics, about the myths and realities of joint health. They explore how weight, injury, gender, and exercise all factor into knee pain and degradation, and why “wear and tear” is an oversimplified diagnosis. Dr. Messier shares practical, research-backed advice on how to care for your joints. He also highlights surprising findings about the benefits of strength training, the limits of supplements, and how lifestyle may be the most powerful intervention of all. Hope you enjoy.

A perfect spiral galaxy would include a bright, round “bulge” of stars in the middle; glittering spiral arms wrapping around it; dark lanes of dust lacing through the arms; and bright star clusters sprinkled about like lights on a Christmas wreath. In other words, it would look just like Messier 81, one of the best examples of a “grand design” spiral galaxy. It’s about 12 million light-years away, and appears close to the bowl of the Big Dipper. It’s a bit smaller and less massive than our own home galaxy, the Milky Way. M81’s “bulge,” though, is much larger and brighter than the one in the center of the Milky Way. And the black hole in the galaxy’s heart is almost 20 times as massive as the Milky Way’s. The spiral arms are outlined by the galaxy’s youngest, brightest stars. Over the past 600 million years or so, a major bout of starbirth has brightened the arms. That outburst is the result of gravitational interactions between M81 and two companion galaxies. The encounters compress big clouds of gas and dust. The clouds break into clumps, which then collapse to form stars – stars that make Messier 81 one of the most beautiful galaxies of all. Under clear, dark skies, you can spot M81 with binoculars. Find the Big Dipper, which is high in the north at nightfall. M81 hangs below the bowl at that hour. It looks like an oval smudge of light that’s almost as wide as the Moon. Script by Damond Benningfield
Last month, The Ken set out on a quest to understand how deep AI's roots have grown in Indian companies. We asked India's employees across industries and experience levels the extent to which they were using AI tools on a day to day and how it had changed workplace dynamics for them. Nearly 500 people took our survey. Nine out of 10 of them said they had begun using AI tools, even if it meant paying for them out of their own pocket. Once we got a sense of how employees were feeling about AI, we turned the lens on some of India's biggest companies. What were they doing to help their employees keep up? Turns out that's something the likes of Razorpay, Phonepe, Cars24, Homelane and Zerodha are actively working towards. Tune in. Want to attend The Ken's next event on health, fitness and wellness? Buy tickets here. Here's your chance to help us shape the conversation: https://theken.typeform.com/to/bZhqWl2g

Dans cet épisode du podcast Retour sur l'investissement, Nikolaï Ray reçoit Jonathan Messier pour une conversation percutante sur la richesse, l'immobilier et la responsabilité personnelle. Ensemble, ils abordent ce que l'école ne vous enseigne pas : la valeur de l'argent dans le temps, l'effet de levier, l'intérêt composé, et surtout, l'importance d'un état d'esprit ouvert, lucide et stratégique. Jonathan y partage son parcours, ses déclics, ses apprentissages, ainsi qu'un regard critique sur la culture québécoise face à l'argent.
The Knicks are headed back to Indiana to try and force a game 7 back at the Garden. If you want to be Mark Messier, you have to win championships, and hopefully Jalen Brunson can do that. Boomer said there's a lot of pressure on him and so far he's performing. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the postgame sound from the Knicks win. Tyrese Haliburton only had 8 points and he talked about his rough night. Al claims nobody knows who Landry Shamet is and that his name was never uttered by Boomer & Gio (not true). In the final segment of the hour, Tyrese Haliburton had an off night and Boomer wondered if he was hurt.

Globular clusters are the oldest members of the galaxy. They’re tight balls of hundreds of thousands of stars, most of which were born when the universe was no more than a couple of billion years old. Their most-massive stars have long since died. And most of the stars that remain are cool and faint. So a globular tends to be fairly quiet and calm. But that doesn’t mean that things don’t change. Consider Messier 13. It’s in Hercules, which is high in the east at nightfall. Under dark skies, the cluster is just visible to the unaided eye, looking like a faint, fuzzy star. The cluster is about 25,000 light-years away, and it contains up to half a million stars. But the stars at the edge of the cluster aren’t held as tightly as those in the middle. So the gravity of the rest of the galaxy can pull some of them away. In fact, astronomers have identified a few dozen stars that appear to be escapees from M13. But the cluster also can grab stars from the space around it. One especially young star probably became a member of the cluster that way. And stars inside the cluster can change. Some of them merge, forming bright, blue stars that look much younger. And stars die. M13’s brightest member is dying right now. It’s about as massive as the Sun, but it’s puffed up to dozens of times the Sun’s diameter. Soon, it’ll blow away its outer layers, leaving only its tiny, dead core – one more change in an ancient family of stars. Script by Damond Benningfield
Hello beloved. Have you ever heard of the Pleiades? Not to be confused for the “Pleadians” Star Family Race, but that of the 7 sisters dancing in they sky, protecting and holding space for women of all kind.The veils are lifting and our connection to all that is.ALL THAT IS - is available for ALL by setting the intention and integrating their gifts into helping society transition into our next spiritual - golden age. That said, if you sense your here for this grand integration of heaven on earth, I want to share this incredible astrological transit.Pause and root in your essence as you invite the Pleiades Stargate and the essence of their beautiful protection. THE STORY. In Greek mythology, the Pleiades were the seven daughters of the sea-nymph Pleione and Atlas, a Titan condemned by Zeus to bear the sky on his shoulders forever.Their names—Maia, Electra, Taygete, Alcyone, Celaeno, Sterope, and Merope—reflect their celestial legacy.The name Pleiades, derived from the Greek word pleiôn meaning “plenty,” signifies their title as “Ladies of Plenty.”The Myth recounts their pursuit by Orion, the giant hunter enamored with them.To shield them from his advances, Zeus transformed the sisters into stars, placing them in the night sky. Another story portrays the Pleiades as companions of Artemis, goddess of the hunt, who turned them into stars to safeguard them from Orion's relentless pursuit. The Pleiades constellation endures as a powerful symbol of sisterhood, embodying the strength and unity found in collective bonds.Today, the Pleiades resonate deeply with the divine feminine, representing a restoration of feminine energy rooted in nurturing, abundance, and resilience.Their celestial presence inspires modern movements to reclaim the divine feminine, fostering empowerment, fertility, and prosperity and the interconnectedness of women supporting one another.This constellation's enduring light serves as a reminder of the sacred feminine's role in healing and creating balance in a world yearning for unity and hope.Pleiades were the companions of Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, who transformed them into stars to protect them from the advances of orion, a giant hunter.

It's the Wednesday after Game 5, which means a fresh episode of Better Lait Than Never is ready to recap the Edmonton Oilers' miraculous comeback while also looking back at the week that was. On today's podcast, I recapped games 3-5, looked ahead at Game 6, what the Oilers need to do to close out the series, and much more.Isn't it amazing how many things can change in a week? When I recorded last Wednesday's episode, the Oilers had just spectacularly lost Game 1 and were about to drop Game 2 even worse somehow. The good news is that sports are the best reality show on earth, and watching our boys come roaring back with three straight wins is almost as good as it gets. I also touched on how great the other first round series have been, and how working through a playoff run can be tough on the body.Turning my full attention back to the Oilers, I started with a recap of games 3-5 and how the Oilers have gotten better with each passing period. That's not to say that they were perfect by any stretch, but Edmonton's ability to crank up their resiliency when it mattered most was an unstoppable force for Los Angeles. There's also the Calvin Pickard effect, as the team clearly enjoys playing in front of a guy who seems like the nicest man on earth. Then there's Evan Bouchard's four goals, Evander Kane's impact, and Leon Draisaitl tying Messier and Gretzky for one of the wildest playoff records ever.Finally, I wrapped up this week's episode of BLTN with a guest Righteous Sack Beating before wrapping up the podcast with a quality round of voicemails. The voicemail was alive this week, and the messages were very funny, as you could almost feel the rollercoaster of emotions that were going on. As always, finishing up the show with your opinions is my favourite part of the whole thing and something I always look forward to most.

The Sun is four and a half billion years old – a third of the age of the universe. Compared to the stars in globular clusters, though, it’s a youngster. Those stars were born when the universe was young. An example is Messier 3 – a family of about half a million stars. The cluster is about 11.4 billion years old. That means its stars were born just a couple of billion years after the Big Bang. All of the cluster’s remaining original stars are fainter and less massive than the Sun. Anything heavier than the Sun has exhausted its nuclear fuel, leaving only a corpse – a small, dense, faint remnant. And astronomers have seen quite a few of these remnants in M3. But the dead stars are tough to find inside the crowded cluster. Some of the stars of Messier 3 are more massive than the Sun. But they weren’t born that way. Instead, they’ve grown by cannibalizing companion stars. Some of them have pulled gas off the surface of a companion. Others have merged with a companion. Either process adds to a star’s mass. That makes the star brighter and bluer – making it look a lot younger that it really is. This huge cluster of ancient stars is about 34,000 light-years away. It’s in the constellation Canes Venatici, the hunting dogs. M3 isn’t quite bright enough to see with the eye alone, but it’s an easy target for binoculars. It’s well up in the east at nightfall, above the bright star Arcturus. Script by Damond Benningfield

This discovery sheds light on the geochemical differences between the two hemispheres and offers fresh perspectives on lunar evolution and the implications for the Moon's origin.Asteroid 2024 YR4: From Earth Threat to Lunar TargetNext, we track the journey of asteroid 2024 YR4, which initially garnered attention as a potential Earth impactor. However, new observations indicate that this 60-meter-wide asteroid is now on a collision course with the Moon, raising the likelihood of an impact to 3.5%. We discuss its unique characteristics and the ongoing studies aimed at understanding its origins and physical properties.Singing Stars and Galactic HistoryAdditionally, we explore how stellar seismology is revealing the evolutionary history of stars in the open cluster Messier 67. By analyzing the oscillations of these stars, astronomers can map the history of the Milky Way and gain insights into stellar evolution. This innovative approach provides a deeper understanding of the life cycles of stars and their contributions to galactic archaeology.00:00 Space Time Series 28 Episode 45 for broadcast on 14 April 202500:49 Findings from Chang'e 6 about lunar water distribution06:30 Implications for lunar evolution and origin theories12:15 Asteroid 2024 YR4's trajectory and characteristics18:00 Transition from Earth impactor to Moon target22:45 Stellar seismology insights from Messier 6727:00 Summary of recent astronomical discoveries30:15 Science report: Genetic engineering and the dire wolfwww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com
Watch the best scene reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xYkI__GTug The butterfly prince is a story of a fictional character K.A.M.60 that attempt to honour the great French astronomer Charles Messier who developed the Messier catalogue and discovered many Messier objects in the sky in particular in the Virgo constellation. In the book K.A.M.60 real name is = Karlex Antoine Messier 60 and he is part of the Messier family. In real life The Messier 60 object is the twin/butterfly galaxies. Get to know the writer: What is your screenplay about? The butterfly prince is a story of a fictional character K.A.M.60 that attempt to honour the great French astronomer Charles Messier who developed the Messier catalogue and discovered many Messier objects in the sky in particular in the Virgo constellation. K.A.M.60 real name is = Karlex Aristoteles Messier 60 and he is part of the Messier family. In real life The Messier 60 object is the twin/butterfly galaxies. The plot is about jealousy, family feuds adventures and love. The constellations of Libra and Leo that are a couple have declared the war to the Virgo constellation just because of jealousy, they wiped out the Virgo constellation population. The only people left are the Messier family. They decided to send KAM60 (1) of their sons to the planet earth in a quest to find 10 virgins/maidens to married the 10 Messier brothers and repopulated the Virgo constellation again. K.A.M.60 Embarks in a quest and very interested journey where he not only achieved his goals of find the correct Maidens whom married the Messier brothers, along the way he meets very interesting characters such as Centaurs, witches, Mythological creatures, Gods, zodiac constellations etc. He also lived the most amazing adventures rescuing, helping, curing, advising and even fighting for or with people once he lands in the planet Earth. Also, all the way the constellations of Libra and Leo (the bad guys on this plot) will do something to stop K.A.M.60 to achieve his goals but like a great hero he always defeats them. Additional, despite that this is a fantasy book most of the heroes KAM60, the maidens etc are based in real people. People that inspired me and that I believe will inspire others. Example of these people are; Charles Messier, Juana Cruz the 1st female Spanish bullfighter, Magdalena Zeger the 1st female astronomer, Marie Jose Perec, the best French female sprinter, ancient civilizations such as the Mayans, the Olmecs, the Dahomey's, the Vikings, The Amazon female warriors etc. There are also some interesting twists in the story such as the inclusion of fake/false Maidens, the Emerald ring that determines which are the real maidens/virgins, the butterflies tattoos and character names (most maidens have a butterfly name and of course all of them must have a butterfly tattoo, like KHAM 60 also had one) there is plenty of adventures, magic, mysteries, suspense, drama, mystic, action, Love, friendship, team work etc Plus the stunning locations around the world where all these adventures occurs.

The star cluster Messier 3 is a beautiful sight – a sparkly ball of half a million stars. But the view from the cluster would be even more spectacular. M3 is high above the plane of the Milky Way, so the galaxy would spread out below it like a brilliant pinwheel. M3 is a globular cluster – a dense ball a few hundred light-years in diameter. Its stars are among the oldest in the entire galaxy. They formed just a couple of billion years after the Big Bang. All of the cluster’s heavy stars have long since died, so almost all that’s left are stars that are less massive than the Sun. Such stars are fairly faint. But there are so many of them that the cluster is an easy target for binoculars, even though it’s about 34,000 light-years away. Most of the stars and clusters in the galaxy lie in a wide, thin disk. But globular clusters range far above and below that disk. Right now, M3 is about 30,000 light-years above the disk. So most of the galaxy would spread out below it. If there are inhabited planets in the cluster, its residents would have some spectacular views – hundreds of thousands of stars close by, and a giant galaxy of stars arrayed below them. M3 is in Canes Venatici, the hunting dogs. The cluster is low in the east-northeast in early evening, and is a beautiful sight through binoculars or a telescope. Tomorrow: super-flares.

Our home galaxy, the Milky Way, belongs to a small cluster of galaxies – the Local Group. It has fewer than a hundred known members. But most galaxies reside in much more impressive clusters. And the closest of these is centered in the constellation Virgo, which steps up the eastern sky this evening. The Virgo Cluster contains roughly 2,000 galaxies. They move through space together, bound by their mutual gravitational pull. The cluster’s most impressive member is Messier 87. It marks the center of the cluster, more than 50 million light-years away. M87 may span a million light-years and contain trillions of stars – many times the corresponding values for the Milky Way. And its total mass is more than twice the Milky Way’s. M87 is a different type of galaxy. The Milky Way is a spiral – a flat disk highlighted by “arms” of bright stars that make it look like a pinwheel. M87, on the other hand, is elliptical – it resembles a fat, fuzzy football. It may have grown so large through the mergers of several big galaxies. That scrambled the stars, so they orbit the center of M87 in all directions. The heart of the galaxy harbors a black hole more than a thousand times the mass of the central black hole in the Milky Way. It was the first black hole to have its picture taken – a dark shadow at the heart of a giant galaxy. More darkness in Virgo tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield
It might seem hard to lose a star cluster. But that’s what happened with Messier 48. It was cataloged by French astronomer Charles Messier in 1771. When other astronomers looked for it, though, they couldn’t find it. In the early 1780s, Johann Bode and Caroline Herschel did see a cluster five degrees from the position that Messier reported. So they sometimes get credit for the discovery. What all of these folks actually discovered was the nature of the cluster. Under especially dark skies, it’s visible to the eye alone as a faint smudge of light, so people had always known it was there. But the telescope showed that the smudge consisted of many individual stars. Today, we know that M48 contains hundreds of stars. They’re packed into a loose ball that spans about 125 light-years. Most of the stars congregate near the center of that ball, which is the part that’s visible to the eye alone. The stars near the edge of the cluster are being pulled away by the gravity of the rest of the galaxy. Someday, those stars will leave the cluster and head off on their own. M48 is 2500 light-years away. That makes it one of the most distant clusters of its type that’s visible to the eye. As night falls, it’s high in the southern sky. It’s well to the upper left of Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky. Binoculars reveal some of the individual stars of M48 – a cluster that got lost. Script by Damond Benningfield
In the 18th century, a French astronomer who was a regular comet hunter kept finding things in the sky that weren't comets, but they also weren't stars or planets. He created a list of these objects, not because he was trying to catalog the night sky, but rather to help other comet hunters avoid these common objects. It turned out his list consisted of some of the most incredible objects inside and outside of our galaxy.

Let's be real—business feels different right now. Harder. Messier. More unpredictable. Maybe you've noticed it, too—clients ghosting, people backing out after saying yes, invoices getting “forgotten.” It's frustrating, it's exhausting, and honestly? It's got to stop. This episode is the honest conversation we ALL need. I'm pulling back the curtain on what's really happening in the online business world, the blurred lines between personal and professional relationships, and the critical shift we must make to protect our businesses, uphold our standards, and stop the cycle of broken commitments. This isn't about complaining—it's about taking responsibility, setting boundaries, and demanding more from ourselves and the industry as a whole. In this episode, you'll learn: 00:00 - 03:00 – The Changing Landscape of Business More instances of clients saying yes, then backing out or ghosting. Importance of having honest conversations about these challenges. 03:01 - 07:00 – Personal vs. Contractual Relationships Business owners often mix personal feelings with contractual obligations. Feeling guilty about enforcing contracts is common but needs to change. 07:01 - 12:00 – The Impact of Lowering Standards Many business owners lower their standards when things get tough Instead, raise standards and enforce boundaries. 12:01 - 17:00 – The Importance of Upholding Boundaries Business difficulties are not the provider's fault; the client needs to take responsibility. Service providers should enforce contracts rather than make exceptions. 17:01 - 21:00 – Industry-Wide Responsibility & Change Everyone in the industry needs to raise expectations and commit to better standards. Strengthening boundaries leads to long-term business stability. 21:01 - End – Final Call to Action Business owners should ask: How can I raise my standards? How can I better uphold my boundaries? How can I help my clients do the same?

A young star cluster trots along with the Dog Star, Sirius – the brightest star in the night sky. They’re in the south-southeast at nightfall, and due south by about 9 p.m. The cluster stands directly below Sirius at that hour. Under dark skies, it’s just visible to the eye alone as a small, hazy patch of light. Messier 41 is about 2300 light-years away. And it’s about 25 light-years across. That volume is packed with hundreds of stars – as many as eight hundred, according to some estimates. By comparison, the same volume of space around the Sun contains only a few dozen stars. That means the skies of any planets in the cluster would be packed with bright stars – especially in the middle of the cluster, where the stars are jammed together. Some of the stars there are bigger and brighter than the Sun. Some of them are still in the prime of life, but a few are already near the end. They’ve puffed up to giant proportions, so they shine hundreds of times brighter than the Sun. The Sun probably was born in a similar type of cluster. But the Sun and its sibling stars have all gone their own ways – pulled away from each other by the gravity of the galaxy’s other stars and gas clouds. The Sun has been around for four and a half billion years. But the stars of M41 are only about 200 million years old. So there hasn’t been enough time for the galaxy to rip apart this family of young stars. Script by Damond Benningfield
The constellation Auriga is high in the eastern sky as night falls. It’s usually drawn as a pentagon. The brilliant star Capella is at the top left corner, with fainter Elnath – a star that’s shared with Taurus – at the lower right. A trail of three prominent star clusters winds through the pentagon – Messier 36, 37, and 38. M36 and 38 are inside the pentagon. M37 is just below it. All three are easy targets for binoculars. M37 is about 4500 light-years away. And it’s the largest of the trio of clusters. It spans a few dozen light-years. Astronomers have cataloged more than 500 member stars, but the total population could be much higher. The cluster includes more than 50 dead stars known as white dwarfs. The details of such stars help reveal the cluster’s age – roughly 400 million to 550 million years. And that’s a long time for a star cluster to hang together. M37 has orbited the center of the Milky Way Galaxy at least twice. As it orbits, the gravitational fingers of other stars and gas clouds pull away some of the stars on the fringes of the cluster. So far, Messier 37 appears to be maintaining a firm grip on most of its stars. But that won’t last forever. More stars will be pulled away on each trip through the galaxy – whittling down this tight family of stars. Script by Damond Benningfield
