Astrophysicists think they know how to destroy a black hole. The puzzle is what such destruction would leave behind.

A magnitude 4.7 earthquake was reported Thursday evening at 5:42 p.m. Pacific time 16 miles from Ridgecrest, Calif., according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

The earthquake occurred 44 miles from California City, 66 miles from Tehachapi, 68 miles from Bakersfield, and 70 miles from Porterville.

In the last 10 days, there have been 68 earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or greater centered nearby. A magnitude 6.4 earthquake struck the area July 4 and a 7.1 hit the next day, with thousands of small aftershocks following.

NASA has vowed to “use all means necessary” to ensure the success of the mission, and that could include technology developed by StemRad, a Tel Aviv-based company behind the AstroRad radiation protection vest.

Developed in partnership with aerospace and defense giant Lockheed Martin, the AstroRad vest is personal protective equipment for astronauts to wear beyond Low Earth Orbit, mitigating space radiation exposure outside the Earth’s magnetosphere.

Boasting the Israeli flag, the AstroRad uses a proprietary smart shielding design to selectively protect organs and tissues which are most sensitive to radiation exposure. The company has developed an adapted suit for women, who are particularly vulnerable to space radiation.

Being forever young has long been a dream for many. Now there are new ways to slow down the aging process. Switzerland is jumping on the trend, with a growing hub of science and economic activity around staying young. Harvard Medical School’s David Sinclair says the “fountain of youth pill” could soon become a reality.

This article provides a brief primer by describing a handful of clever approaches that have been suggested by politicians and other civic leaders to address the complaints about big tech.
