El amigo secreto y Máximo Pradera hablan de cómo Muse mezcla en sus temas pop-rock y la música clásica. Otros grandes de la música como Paul McArtney o Paul Simon también lo han hecho

Las versiones musicales del amigo secreto de Javier del Pino y (un poco menos) de Rafa Panadero.

En este episodio de "La Teoría de la Mente", exploramos la intensidad oscura de "Supermassive Black Hole" de Muse, una canción que captura el deseo arrebatador, ese que puede consumirnos por completo y llevarnos al límite de nuestra cordura. Inspirados en el simbolismo de los agujeros negros supermasivos, hablamos sobre cómo el deseo a veces se convierte en una fuerza imparable, arrastrándonos hacia un vacío emocional del que puede ser difícil escapar. Con esta poderosa canción como punto de partida, analizamos por qué los humanos somos capaces de experimentar deseos tan intensos que nos hacen perder el control. ¿Por qué una especie capaz de crear filosofía y ciencia también puede caer en trampas emocionales? Reflexionamos sobre cómo nuestros impulsos tienen raíces evolutivas profundas, ligadas a la supervivencia y a la creación de vínculos sociales. También exploramos el impacto de los sistemas de recompensa en el cerebro, el papel de la dopamina en el amor romántico y cómo este tipo de deseos pueden, a veces, actuar como "agujeros negros" que nos drenan emocionalmente. La letra de "Supermassive Black Hole" está cargada de metáforas sobre la atracción oscura e inevitable, evocando imágenes de fuego, deshielo y una pasión que consume. Con frases como “You set my soul alight” y “Glaciers melting in the dead of night”, Muse logra transmitir esa urgencia y peligro que se siente al ser absorbido por un deseo sin control. Nos adentramos en el análisis de cómo esta canción ilustra el fenómeno del deseo obsesivo y cómo las recompensas intermitentes pueden atraparnos en relaciones tóxicas o metas inalcanzables. A lo largo del episodio, te invitamos a reflexionar sobre tus propios deseos. ¿Hay algo que te esté consumiendo, al igual que un agujero negro supermasivo absorbe todo a su paso? ¿Hasta qué punto ese deseo intenso te impulsa o te atrapa? ¿Es posible encontrar un equilibrio entre la pasión y la paz mental? Temas Principales Agujeros Negros Supermasivos: Una breve explicación de qué son y cómo funcionan estos fenómenos cósmicos, capaces de atraer y absorber todo lo que se acerca, incluyendo la luz. El Deseo como Fuerza Atrapante: Reflexionamos sobre cómo el deseo intenso puede actuar como un agujero negro emocional, consumiendo nuestra energía y claridad mental. Evolución y Deseo: Desde una perspectiva evolutiva, exploramos cómo el deseo fuerte y a veces irracional tiene sus raíces en la supervivencia y en la formación de lazos. Psicología del Amor y el Deseo Intenso: Analizamos las investigaciones de Helen Fisher sobre el sistema de recompensa del cerebro y cómo la dopamina refuerza estos patrones de atracción intensa. Análisis de la Letra: Desglose de las metáforas en “Supermassive Black Hole” y su relación con el deseo obsesivo y las trampas emocionales. Reflexión Personal: Invitación a reflexionar sobre los deseos que nos impulsan y aquellos que nos pueden encadenar, buscando un equilibrio para no ser absorbidos por nuestro propio "agujero negro".

DARK MATTER'S UNKNOWN PHYSICS MAY EXPLAIN WEBB-OBSERVED MOST EARLY UNIVERSE SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLES 6/8: The Elephant in the Universe: Our Hundred-Year Search for Dark Matter by  Govert Schilling  (Author), Avi Loeb  (Foreword) https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/dark-matter-linked-to-supermassive-black-holes-in-the-early-universe/ar-AA1pBrL8 https://www.amazon.com/Elephant-Universe-Hundred-Year-Search-Matter/dp/0674248996 In The Elephant in the Universe, Govert Schilling explores the fascinating history of the search for dark matter. Evidence for its existence comes from a wealth of astronomical observations. Theories and computer simulations of the evolution of the universe are also suggestive: they can be reconciled with astronomical measurements only if dark matter is a dominant component of nature. Physicists have devised huge, sensitive instruments to search for dark matter, which may be unlike anything else in the cosmos―some unknown elementary particle. Yet so far dark matter has escaped every experiment. Indeed, dark matter is so elusive that some scientists are beginning to suspect there might be something wrong with our theories about gravity or with the current paradigms of cosmology. Schilling interviews both believers and heretics and paints a colorful picture of the history and current status of dark matter research, with astronomers and physicists alike trying to make sense of theory and observation. 1825 PARIS OBSERVATORY

We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text message.In this episode of "Discover Daily" by Perplexity, we explore a big advancement in black hole imaging and delve into the history of the world's oldest dated printed book. The Event Horizon Telescope collaboration has achieved a remarkable feat by introducing "color vision" to their observations of supermassive black holes. By incorporating a new radio frequency of 345 GHz alongside the existing 230 GHz, scientists can now produce sharper, more detailed images, offering unprecedented clarity in visualizing these cosmic giants. This dual-frequency approach is expected to increase image detail by an impressive 50%, allowing researchers to better differentiate between the effects of Einstein's gravity and other phenomena near black holes.We then journey back in time to explore the Diamond Sutra, a Buddhist text printed in 868 CE that holds the distinction of being the world's oldest known dated printed book. Discovered in 1900 in China's Mogao Caves, this 16-foot-long scroll predates the Gutenberg Bible by nearly six centuries. Created using woodblock printing, the Diamond Sutra represents a pivotal moment in the history of information dissemination, showcasing the advanced state of printing technology in 9th century China. Its colophon, which precisely dates its production, provides crucial evidence for understanding the timeline of printing technology development.From Perplexity's Discover Feed: https://www.perplexity.ai/page/telescope-shows-black-holes-in-Rw6Pn5JnQnOznJxuapBCLwhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/the-world-s-oldest-printed-boo-rIR81on4RhKLPnFLoG1YTwPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

Welcome to Astronomy Daily, your friendly and engaging guide to the cosmos. I'm your host, Anna, and I'm thrilled to bring you the latest and most exciting news from the world of space and astronomy. Today, we'll discuss Russia's ambitious plans for a new space station, uncover interstellar objects with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, explore fascinating connections between supermassive black holes and dark matter, and take a look at space tourism reviews on TripAdvisor. So fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a cosmic journey through today's top stories.Russia's New Space Station: ROSS: Russia's space agency Roscosmos has unveiled an ambitious plan for its newest space station, the Russian Orbital Service Station (Ross). The first module is expected to launch by 2027, marking a significant step forward for Russia's space exploration efforts. Ross will orbit at the same altitude as the International Space Station but aims to foster new partnerships with countries like Brazil, India, China, and South Africa. The project, estimated to cost around $7 billion USD, will integrate artificial intelligence into its operations and assist in guiding a fleet of satellites, presenting novel challenges for mission control.- Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey: The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) is set to revolutionize our understanding of interstellar objects and planetary formation. Starting in 2025, this survey will leverage cutting-edge technology to detect smaller, fainter interstellar objects with unprecedented precision. Scientists are optimistic that Rubin's powerful capabilities will reveal dozens, if not hundreds, of new interstellar objects, providing valuable data about the formation and evolution of distant planetary systems.- Supermassive Black Holes and Dark Matter: Astrophysicists have uncovered a remarkable link between supermassive black holes and dark matter particles, shedding new light on the longstanding final parsec problem. Researchers propose that dark matter particles interact in ways previously overlooked, helping supermassive black holes bridge the final parsec and merge. This discovery not only solves the final parsec problem but also aligns with the recent background hum of gravitational waves detected, offering a new window into the microphysics of dark matter.- Space Tourism Reviews on TripAdvisor: TripAdvisor is now featuring reviews of space tourism experiences, offering insights into the burgeoning industry. Potential travelers can read firsthand accounts of zero gravity flights and orbital journeys, helping them choose their next cosmic vacation. Whether considering a suborbital trip with SpaceX or a stay at a commercial space station, these reviews provide valuable information for planning an out-of-this-world adventure.Don't forget to visit our website at astronomydaily.io where you can sign up for our free daily newsletter and stay updated with the latest space news via our constantly updating news feed.

Previously the only way to image black holes was with the Event Horizon Telescope, a combination of many radio telescopes across the globe. It is complicated and time-consuming. But with Vera Rubin going online soon, there might be a simpler way to observe black holes with a single telescope using a really clever method.

Hugh describes the discovery of four fully-formed supermassive black holes that existed just 410–760 million years after the cosmic creation event. Do Early Supermassive Black Holes Refute the Big Bang? Quasar J1120+0641, seen 760 million years after the cosmic beginning, has a supermassive black hole (SMBH) weighing 1.52 billion solar masses. Quasar J1342+0928, seen 700 million years after the beginning, has a SMBH weighing 0.78 billion solar masses. Quasar J0313-1806, seen 690 million years after the beginning, has a SMBH of 1.6 billion solar masses. The most distantly detected SMBH belongs to GN-z11. Just 410 million after the beginning, its SMBH weighs 0.002 billion solar masses. There are three ways such SMBHs can form so early in a big bang universe: through 1) very aggressive early gas accretion by the BHs; 2) mergers of the BHs arising from many 500+ solar-mass first generation stars; and 3) mergers of 10,000+ solar-mass gas clouds that collapse into black holes without forming stars. The discovery of many more cosmic dawn SMBHs will determine which one, of more, of the three ways explains the SMBHs.  Links & Resources A Mature Quasar at Cosmic Dawn Revealed by JWST Rest-Frame Infrared Spectroscopy Black Holes as Evidence of God's Care

Planets orbit stars, and moons orbit planets, so what orbits a supermassive black hole? Possibly a whole lot of stuff, including a gaseous disk, thousands of stars and more "normal size" black holes! Dr. Rosalba Perna tells us about all the crazy things that could be orbiting around the supermassive black holes that we detect at the center of active galaxies.

Hosted by Dr. Jacinta Delhaize & Dr. Daniel Cunnama. The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration has unveiled the first image of the supermassive black hole at the centre of our own Milky Way galaxy! This is the first direct evidence of the black hole in our galaxy. The image was produced by a global research team called the EHT Collaboration, using observations from a worldwide network of radio telescopes.   We are joined by Dr. Iniyan Natarajan who is a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Witwatersrand and who was part of the team of over 300 astronomers who made this possible.   EHT Press Release:  https://eventhorizontelescope.org/blog/astronomers-reveal-first-image-black-hole-heart-our-galaxy We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

JWST data confirm early formation of supermassive black holes, less than 500 million years after the big bang. This early formation suggests these monsters start off very large and form with the initial formation of the galaxy. We also take a closer look at the exciting results from the Lucy spacecraft's flyby of the asteroid Dinkinesh and its surprising moon. Join us for all this, space news, and top quark trivia.

A Supermassive Black Hole The Mass Of 30 Billion Suns This week, astronomers reported that they may have found signs of one of the largest black holes ever detected–a space behemoth the mass of some 30 billion suns. The supermassive black hole, located in part of the Abell 1201 galaxy cluster, was detected using a combination of gravitational lensing and supercomputer simulations. First, the astronomers observed how the images of other more distant objects viewed by the Hubble Space Telescope were warped by the vast gravitational well produced by the black hole. They compared those images to thousands of simulations created via a supercomputer, and found that a simulation containing a supermassive black hole matched the real-world images. The work was reported in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Umair Irfan, staff writer at Vox, joins SciFri's Kathleen Davis to talk about the finding and other stories from the week in science, including the FDA's approval of over-the-counter Narcan, the real-world challenges of EV charging, and the creation of a meatball–made of mammoth.   What's Driving A Rise In Mumps Cases In The United States? In 1971, the United States rolled out a revolutionary new vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella. The MMR vaccine nearly eradicated all three of those viruses by the start of the 21st century. Over the last several years, there have been numerous measles outbreaks cropping up across the country, especially among unvaccinated kids. What about mumps—that second “m” in the MMR vaccine? Since 2006, there have been mumps outbreaks too. But unlike measles, most of the people getting the mumps are vaccinated. And they're older too, mostly teens and young adults. New research suggests that the efficacy of the mumps vaccine wanes over time, unlike the ones for measles and rubella. Guest host Shahla Farzan talks with Dr. Deven Gokhale, co-author of a recent study on the reemergence of mumps. Gokhale recently completed his PhD from the University of Georgia's Odum School of Ecology, based in Athens Georgia.   Foundational Food Sources In The Gulf Of Maine Are Failing At the Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, researchers Barney Balch and Catherine Mitchell are looking at a map affixed to a large table. “We're looking at a chart of the Gulf of Maine, and right across the middle there's a line that's drawn from Portland, in Maine, to Yarmouth, in Nova Scotia,” Mitchell says. That line is the route along which Bigelow researchers have been taking regular measurements for the last 25 years. They've analyzed chemical and temperature data that help describe how the waters of the gulf are changing. One tool they use is a six-foot long cylinder with wings. “This is an autonomous underwater vehicle, or a glider,” Mitchell says. “So it's a big robot that moves up and down in a yoyo-like pattern, from the top of the ocean to the bottom of the ocean right across the middle of the Gulf of Maine. So it's measuring a bunch of science things as it goes. It looks a bit like a big yellow torpedo. It's got some wings on it.” Read the rest at sciencefriday.com.   Is Spring Falling Out Of Sync? Each year, it feels like spring comes as a surprise—too early or too late. For example, new maps reveal that spring is 13 days late in Sacramento, California but two weeks early in Richmond, Virginia. And that could be a problem because plants and animals use environmental cues, like temperature, to know when to flower, migrate, breed, or emerge from hibernation. So when the seasons are thrown off, what happens to those natural rhythms that once flowed together seamlessly? Guest host Shahla Farzan talks with Dr. David Inouye, professor emeritus at the University of Maryland and a researcher at the Rocky Mountain Biological Station, and Dr. Theresa Crimmins, director of the USA National Phenology Network and research professor at the University of Arizona. They discuss the variability in seasons, and the cascade of effects these changes can have on ecosystems.   Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
