Sparta’s military mediocrity seems inexplicable given the city-state’s popular reputation as a highly militarized society, but modern scholarship has shown that this, too, is mostly a mirage. The agoge, Sparta’s rearing system for citizen boys, frequently represented in popular culture as akin to an intense military bootcamp, in fact included no arms training or military drills

In the ‘90s, a VHS tape emerged and, with it, a claim that a UFO had crashed in a field near Ottawa. A former teen UFO investigator returns decades later to find out what people saw there

In classical optics, however, there is another way to reconstruct a 3D object. This is called digital holography, and is based on recording a single image, called interferogram, obtained by interfering the light scattered by the object with a reference light.

The team, led byEbrahim Karimi, Canada Research Chair in Structured Quantum Waves, co-director of uOttawa Nexus for Quantum Technologies (NexQT) research institute and associate professor in the Faculty of Science, extended this concept to the case of two photons.

Reconstructing a biphoton state requires superimposing it with a presumably well-known quantum state, and then analyzing the spatial distribution of the positions where two photons arrive simultaneously. Imaging the simultaneous arrival of two photons is known as a coincidence image. These photons may come from the reference source or the unknown source. Quantum mechanics states that the source of the photons cannot be identified.

Dr. Alessio D'Errico, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Ottawa and one of the co-authors of the paper, highlighted the immense advantages of this innovative approach, "This method is exponentially faster than previous techniques, requiring only minutes or seconds instead of days. Importantly, the detection time is not influenced by the system's complexity—a solution to the long-standing scalability challenge in projective tomography."

passive investing doesn't work: top coins by market cap have returned an average of 0%

"Imagine, just imagine, if Barack Obama in any of his 8 years in office had proudly and publicly referred to himself as ‘the apple of [Putin’s] eye,'" he wrote Friday. "The right would have had an immediate and nonstop meltdown. Fox would have demanded impeachment and indictment 24/7."

Presidential historian Michael Beschloss took a more historical approach:

"Never heard Truman boast of being the 'apple' of Stalin’s eye," he said.

fully 40% of total U.S. emissions were associated with income flows to the highest earning 10% of households. Among the highest earning 1% of households (whose income is linked to 15–17% of national emissions) investment holdings account for 38–43% of their emissions

SBIRS High was undertaken in 1996 to improve DOD's
missile detection/warning capabilities.
• The program has experienced schedule slips of at least 6
years and cost increases that have triggered legislative
requirements to reassess and recertify the program several
times—most recently in spring 2006.
• While DOD’s total program cost estimate was about $4.1
billion, it is now $10.4 billion—more than a 300 percent unit
cost increase.

There is no acceleration and no hypersonic velocity in Tic-Tac Tech/T^3. Tic-Tac stands still relative to its local gravity field in weightless free float. It’s the space around it that is warping, so that it appears like instant acceleration and hypersonic velocity to outside observers like Commander Fravor using electromagnetic wave signals coming from the warp field. It is in John Archibald Wheeler’s terms: acceleration without acceleration; hypersonic velocity without hypersonic velocity.

considering the importance for the remote viewing hypothesis of adequate cue removal, Tart’s failure to perform this basic task seems beyond comprehension

The NOSS 3-6 duo had the best coverage, which includes the full northern arc from Thailand to Kazakhstan determined by the Inmarsat reception:

This would be the second SBIRS HEO payload; the first was lofted June 27, 2006 for the NRO as part of the NROL-22 mission that inaugurated West Coast operations for Delta IV.

Caught 3 times of #28888, and looks that is very early (~7,4 seconds).
Need help to confirm. This would mean a little maneuver.
