This is the globular cluster Omega Centauri, which is composed of 10 million gravitationally bound stars. Models have long suggested that it should also contain about 10,000 stellar-mass black holes. Finally, the first one has been found! 1/2

Rick Rubin on submerging yourself in great works:

"Consider submerging yourself in the canon of great works. Read the finest literature, watch the masterpieces of cinema, get up close to the most influential paintings, visit architectural landmarks.

Exposure to great art provides an invitation. It draws us forward, and opens doors of possibility.

If you make the choice of reading classic literature every day for a year, rather than reading the news, by the end of that time period you’ll have a more honed sensitivity for recognizing greatness from the books than from the media.

This applies to every choice we make. Not just with art, but with the friends we choose, the conversations we have, even the thoughts we reflect on.

All of these aspects affect our ability to distinguish good from very good, very good from great.

They help us determine what’s worthy of our time and attention.

Because there’s an endless amount of data available to us and we have a limited bandwidth to conserve, we might consider carefully curating the quality of what we allow in.

The objective is not to learn to mimic greatness, but to calibrate our internal meter for greatness. So we can better make the thousands of choices that might ultimately lead to our own great work."

@TimC_266 @Sachinettiyil It could be red bread mold. Happens often. We’ll see what the tests say.

@SecretFire79 Can you provide the original source? From my research, it’s the same exact text copied and pasted on different online pages. Where was this originally reported and how do you know it’s true?

We're planning to scan 100 ancient Roman scrolls this year and we urgently need to hire a contractor to help us design the cases that hold the scrolls while they are in the particle accelerator.

Job is immediately available and work needs to be completed in the next 4 weeks. If you can do this, please email a specific technical plan of how you would go about it to [email protected]. Pay is good!

Thank you!!
