Todd Humphreys and his team at UT Austin’s Radionavigation Lab believed that the Starlink constellation could offer precise position, navigation, and timing that could serve as a backup to the army’s GPS system.
The ultimate purpose of the group will be to recommend a roadmap for potential UAP data analysis.
NASA has put together an independent study team on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) that will begin its research on Monday, October 24, according to a statement by the Space Agency published on Friday. The assignment will run for nine months and will lay the groundwork for future study on the nature of UAPs.
Recommending a road map.
The ultimate purpose of the group will be to recommend a roadmap for potential UAP data analysis by the agency going forward and will focus solely on unclassified data. Once the research has been completed, a full report will be released to the public in mid-2023.
It would consist of magnetic ropes.
A Dunlap Institute astronomer is speculating that our solar system may be surrounded by a magnetic tunnel that can be seen in radio waves, according to a press release by the institution published October 14.
Rope-like filaments surrounding our planet
Dr. Jennifer West, Research Associate at the Dunlap Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics, is claiming that the two bright structures seen on opposite sides of the sky that were previously considered to be separate are actually connected. They are further made of rope-like filaments that form a tunnel around our solar system.
New Zealand-based agritech company Robotics Plus has launched an autonomous multi-use, modular vehicle for agriculture that could revolutionize the industry by alleviating ongoing labor shortages and simplifying agricultural tasks, according to a press release by the firm published on Thursday.
Optimizing tasks
The robot can be supervised in a fleet of vehicles by a single human operator, using a combination of vision systems and other technologies to sense its environment. This empowers it to optimize tasks and allow intelligent and targeted application of inputs such as sprays. It is suitable for a variety of jobs including spraying, weed control, mulching, mowing and crop analysis.
The Mississippi River is at record low levels, grounding cargo barges and threatening some towns’ drinking water. USACE is doing damage control.
The drought affecting the Mississippi River has revealed a watery secret – a shipwreck that’s over a hundred years old. The skeleton of the craft emerged in Baton Rouge this summer, thanks to low water levels. Dr. Chip McGimsey, archaeologist for the State of Louisiana, believes the ruins belong to the Brookhill Ferry, which sank in 1915. He says the wreck provides a unique way to explore the past, noting, “It makes history alive in a way that you don’t get any other way.”
