The haunting sound that Roman soldiers would have heard from their Celtic enemies before battle came from the Carnyx, an ancient wind instrument used between 200 BC and 200 AD.
@delaurentiis_br No lance do gol deles isso aqui. A Marília na paramount jurava que o outro lance tinha sido gol, quando viu essa mão aí na origem do gol do Cruzeiro ficou calada, fingiu até que não viu
What in the world is that?
BREAKING: The Pentagon releases a 4th batch of UFO Documents and videos 🛸
This video, the clearest of them all, shows a large two tiered structure— The United States Northern Command submitted a report from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2020. An accompanying Range Fouler Debrief, DOW-UAP-D091

Un dato fascinante sobre esa transición religiosa es que los vikingos “tradujeron” el cristianismo a su propio código guerrero para poder entenderlo. Es por eso que los primeros misioneros y reyes presentaron a Jesús como “Rey guerrero invencible” que venció a la muerte y la cruz pasó a verse como un amuleto de victoria. En vez de mostrarlo como un hombre inocente que se deja crucificar.
Sobre el "Ragnarök" y el Juicio Final, los misioneros usaron la mitología nórdica a su favor explicándoles que el apocalipsis vikingo (el Ragnarök, donde el mundo se destruía y los dioses morían) ya había pasado, y que el Dios cristiano era el creador que venía a ordenar el nuevo mundo.
Para complementar esa idea del Ragnarök y el Dios creador, hay un poema escandinavo medieval llamado Völuspá (La profecía de la vidente), que en las últimas estrofas, después de describir la muerte de Odín, Thor y la destrucción del mundo, el poema dice que de las cenizas emerge una tierra verde y hermosa y que entonces "llega el Poderoso desde arriba, el que lo gobierna todo".
Mística y más mística.
118 years ago today, an asteroid exploded over Siberia, flattening an estimated 80 million trees.
On June 30, 1908, an asteroid or comet roughly 30 meters (100 feet) across, entered Earth’s atmosphere and exploded high above the remote Tunguska region of Siberia. The blast leveled approximately 80 million trees across 2,150 square kilometers (830 square miles).
The explosion is estimated to have released energy roughly 1,000 times greater than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Had it occurred over a major metropolitan area, an entire city could have been devastated. Fortunately, it happened in one of the most remote regions on Earth, and no confirmed fatalities are known.
Every year on June 30, the global space community marks Asteroid Day, commemorating the Tunguska event and reminding us that near-Earth objects (NEOs) pose a real, natural hazard. Detecting, tracking, and characterizing these objects is one of the best ways to protect our planet.
That’s why The Planetary Society funds astronomers searching for NEOs. Investing in planetary defense today helps safeguard our world for future generations. 🌎
Joe Rogan went dead silent when NASA astrophysicist Michelle Thaller explained this to him.
Quantum entanglement lets things be connected across the entire universe — instantly. No distance matters. No time lag. And advanced aliens might be using it to travel without spaceships at all.
Two electrons can be entangled so deeply that if you flip one’s spin on one side of the galaxy, the other flips instantly — no signal, no delay, nothing.
Einstein called it “spooky action at a distance” and hated it… but experiments proved it’s real.
Then it got insane. If the Big Bang started with everything crammed together, are we all still quantum-entangled with stuff across the cosmos? Parts of you in Andromeda right now? Inside black holes?
Michelle and Joe start wondering out loud — could hyper-advanced civilizations completely skip rockets and just use entanglement to move through the universe instantaneously?
They tie in Three-Body Problem sophons and Interstellar-level ideas. By the end Joe’s mind is blown and you will be too.
This might be one of the wildest physics conversations he’s ever had.
