Did you know?

There's an Interplanetary Transport Network in our Solar System, used to launch spacecraft from Earth and send them to the desired destination.

It is a collection of gravitationally determined pathways through the Solar System that require very little energy for an object to follow.

The ITN makes particular use of Lagrange points as locations where trajectories through space can be redirected using little or no energy.

Interplanetary transfer orbits are solutions to the gravitational three-body problem.

The ITN is based around a series of orbital paths predicted by chaos theory and the restricted three-body problem leading to and from the orbits around the Lagrange points – points in space where the gravity between various bodies balances with the centrifugal force of an object there.

Notable spacecraft that used the ITN were the ISEE-3, launched in 1978, the Hiten lunar mission in 1991, NASA's 2001–2003 Genesis mission, and the Chinese spacecraft Chang'e 2.

@Khaytweets Hello!

[Mustafa @oprydai]

i genuinely fear the adhd mfs who at 3am are 8 tabs deep into researching the most useless topicsknown to mankind.

like bro started the night watching a cooking video and now he’s comparing the aerodynamics of 15th century javelins vs modern spears with a pdf open titled “thermodynamics of bread ovens in medieval france.”

and the scary part?
they’ll remember everything.

they might forget your birthday, their deadlines, their keys, but ask them how dragonflies stabilize midair and they’ll give you a 30-minute lecture with diagrams.

these are the same people who will one day accidentally invent time travel trying to fix a toaster

A century-old Einstein insight may upend cosmic origins. Spanish-Italian researchers propose that post-Big Bang expansion was driven by gravitational waves—Einstein’s 1916-predicted spacetime ripples—rather than the unproven inflaton field.This model merges general relativity with quantum mechanics in De Sitter space, using only established physics. Gravitational waves stretched nascent spacetime, seeding galaxy formation without exotic forces. Simulations show gravity-quantum interplay suffices for early universe evolution, offering a simpler, testable alternative to inflation—potentially unifying physics’ core theories.

Wireless Radiation is Harming Our Birds, Bees, and Trees

🚨 Our environment is under attack—and it’s coming from wireless radiation. Cell towers, 5G, and Wi-Fi aren’t just affecting human health—they’re disrupting the natural world in ways we can’t ignore.

🐦 Birds: Studies show that exposure to wireless radiation disorients migratory birds, affects their navigation, and even leads to population decline.

🐝 Bees & Pollinators: RF radiation interferes with bee colony health, impacting their ability to forage and reproduce—contributing to colony collapse. Without pollinators, our food system is in grave danger.

🌳 Trees & Plants: Prolonged exposure to wireless radiation is linked to tree damage, weakened immune systems, and reduced growth.

Watch this powerful video to see how wireless radiation affects our ecosystems. 👇

The fundamental composition of matter, detailing the hierarchical structure from a macroscopic view down to the most basic known subatomic particles, the quarks.

[SaaS Junction ✦ Daily AI News & Prompts @SaasJunctionHQ]

@PhysInHistory I think it's both, honestly.

Einstein showed time bends and stretches with gravity and speed, so it's definitely not the rigid thing we imagine.

But something is changing around us, right?

Maybe time isn't fundamental, but change is. We just invented clocks to measure it.

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois The universe doesn’t care who reviews your paper — only whether your data holds up.
That’s not gatekeeping. That’s the scientific method.😁

[Vast Anomaly @VastAnomaly]

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois Publishing on https://t.co/R36LpofY7g isn’t peer review; it’s self-archiving. Real validation starts when someone else runs your experiment and gets the same numbers.”

[Vast Anomaly @VastAnomaly]

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois Until an independent lab reproduces your claimed retrocausal signal, it’s not physics — it’s a proposal.

[Vast Anomaly @VastAnomaly]

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois If your ‘EEG/MEG experiment’ truly verifies ΔΨ(past) ∝ ∂C_future / ∂O_now, then post the methods, raw data, and statistical analysis so others can replicate it.

[Vast Anomaly @VastAnomaly]

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois Peer review isn’t gatekeeping — it’s quality control.

Anyone can upload a PDF; only reproducible results survive peer scrutiny.

[Vast Anomaly @VastAnomaly]

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois So: show the data, or admit this is a belief system, not a theory.

[Vast Anomaly @VastAnomaly]

@ShaubJarid @MrPrestonDubois Until independent labs can measure ΔΨ(past) as a function of ∂C_future / ∂O_now and reproduce your claimed effects, it’s philosophy — not physics.

The scientific community doesn’t ‘pretend’ something’s not real; it just asks for data.
