Nothing is standing or stationary. As you are reading this, the Earth spins around its own axis; it revolves around the sun, the sun is moving through space at a stunning 792,000 km/h around the gigantic center, and our universe is moving at a mind-boggling 2.1 million kilometers per hour. You may contemplate that as you are reading this, your body in a stationary position. But, everything inside the universe travels, from our planet (Earth) –which revolves on its axis at a speed of approximately 1700 km/h— to the solar system and even the Milky Way Galaxy. All the planets…
Kyrie Irving was unable to attend the Dallas Mavericks’ practice on Friday due to an excused absence. He joined the team in Memphis before Saturday’s loss to the Grizzlies, but was considered questionable to play due to right foot soreness before being ruled out altogether. Irving had played 41 minutes during the Mavs’ loss against the New Orleans Pelicans, which had caused the foot soreness he’s dealing with now. He attended the morning shootaround on Saturday and had worked to get to a point where he could play, but was unable to do so. “Yesterday, the soreness, playing him 41 minutes the other…
The biggest-ever dinosaur fossil to be found in Britain has been discovered in Rutland. The 33ft (10m) long ichthyosaur skeleton is around 180 million years old and is thought to be the largest UK example of a predator which roamed the seas when dinosaurs were around. And The block containing the 6ft (2m) skull and surrounding clay weighed a tonne alone. Dubbed “sea dragons”, the reptiles were similar in shape to dolphins but varied in size from 3 – 82ft (1 – 25m). It was discovered at Rutland Water Nature Reserve. Not only is this the biggest dinosaur fossil ever…
Los académicos están estudiando los restos con la esperanza de aprender más sobre los pueblos indígenas que vivían en la región antes del surgimiento del Imperio Inca. Hace unos 800 años, un adulto joven fue enterrado en la costa central de Perú. Los cuidadores momificaron al individuo, envolviendo sus restos en telas, colocando sus manos sobre su rostro y atando sus extremidades con una cuerda de acuerdo con las prácticas funerarias populares en la región andina montañosa. La momia descansó bajo tierra hasta principios de este año, cuando los arqueólogos tropezaron con su tumba durante una excavación, informa Marco Aquino…
Los científicos han descubierto un antiguo esqueleto gigante y enormes huesos de serpiente. Es un descubrimiento extraordinario, y si es genuino, ofrece evidencia de que los gigantes vagaron por la Tierra en el pasado y. También confirma la antigua leyenda de los nagas. Mientras excavaba en la cueva Kɦao Kɦanap Nam en Tailandia, un equipo arcɦaeologıcal descubrió un esqueleto de un ser que era más parecido a un hombre y medía 5 o posiblemente 6 metros (16 -19 pies).

Su experimento podría ayudar a crear una teoría unificada de la gravedad cuántica. Un equipo de físicos de la Universidad de Amsterdam en los Países Bajos simuló el horizonte de eventos de un agujero negro en un laboratorio y observó el equivalente de una forma esquiva de radiación teorizada por primera vez por Stephen Hawking, explica un informe de Science Alert . El nuevo descubrimiento podría ayudar a la comunidad científica a desarrollar una teoría completamente nueva que combine la teoría general de la relatividad con los principios de la mecánica cuántica.

Jurgen Klopp ha insistido en que el Liverpool tiene la calidad de estrella para reemplazar a su famosa primera línea de sus días de gloria más recientes, aunque «no es posible» que tengan la misma relación. Un trío de Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino y Sadio Mane ayudaron a llevar a los Reds a múltiples trofeos en los últimos años, ganando todos los trofeos disponibles durante sus cinco temporadas completas juntos en Anfield. Si bien Salah sigue siendo una parte integral de los planes del Liverpool, Firmino ha revelado que dejará el club al vencimiento de su contrato este verano, mientras que Mane completó su fichaje por…
Después de varios años de éxito rotundo, Roberto Firmino ha decidido dar un paso al costado del Liverpool. El delantero, muy a pesar del deseo de Klopp por firmar su renovación, considera que el rol que tiene dentro del club no es el que él desea en este punto de su carrera, por ello, ha decidido terminar de la mejor forma su relación con el cuadro con el cual lo ha ganado todo y ha anunciado su salida en calidad de agente libre en el verano. Firmino aún tiene la edad idónea para dar dos o tres temporadas de muy buen fútbol y…
Manchester United weathered a Southampton storm after being reduced to ten men in a 0-0 draw at Old Trafford on Sunday. Casemiro picked up his second red card in three Premier League games to put his side under the cosh for over half the match, with the Red Devils and the Saints playing out a thrilling but ultimately goalless encounter. Southampton showed great endeavour from the off despite the huge challenge facing them and had the first half-sight of goal. The Saints worked a free-kick around the box before play switched to an open Kyle Walker-Peters, who fired straight at…
The Dallas Mavericks were without both of their star guards during the game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night. Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic missed the game with minor injuries. Despite being ruled out of action, Irving still made headlines. The 8x NBA All-Star made sneaker history before the game. For the first time in his career, Irving played in a pair of basketball shoes not made by Nike. Irving tested out his injured thigh in warmups and used the opportunity to try out basketball shoes from a brand called Ethics. According to ESPN , the brand is owned by NBA veteran Langston Galloway and his wife.

Un grupo de científicos de la Universidad de Oxford ha conseguido la fusión nuclear con un método completamente nuevo: disparando combustible a 204 veces la velocidad del sonido Científicos de la Universidad de Oxford han desarrollado un método completamente nuevo para obtener la fusión nuclear comercial. Afirman que su tecnología es “la ruta más rápida, simple y barata para obtenerla” y aseguran que tendrán una planta piloto generando unos 150 megavatios en la década de los 2030. Si consiguen lo que prometen, sería una revolución energética totalmente inesperada. Por lo pronto, First Light Fusion — como se llama la compañía salida de la universidad británica — afirma…
In a breathtaking display of grace and power, a massive humpback whale was spotted in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Mbotyi, standing completely out of the water.

El Liverpool había ganado al Manchester United por 7-0 la pasada jornada, pero poco le duró la alegría para los de Anfield. De la euforia máxima, pasaron al sonrojo de perder ante el que, antes de empezar el partido, era el colista. El Bournemouth se adelantó ante un conjunto ‘red’ que, sin embargo, tuvo la oportunidad de igualar el partido con más de 20 minutos por delante. Pero no, no era el día de los pupilos de Jürgen Klopp. En el 69′, Mohamed Salah lanzó un penalti, el número 21 de su trayectoria en la Premier League. Y lo hizo rematadamente mal. Tiró fuera una pena máxima por primera vez. Pero fuera,…
