This is Modi's election. And in that, this election is a battle for Indians to wrestle back their identities that have been assaulted and demonized. In order to facilitate colonial structures that perpetuate slavery. This Indian election is an exercise in freedom.
The Case against Patanjali by Indian Medical Association and the tone of Judiciary is alarming. We need to look into its historical and global context to fully grasp its ramification.
Why do seemingly normal people commit atrocities and genocides? More importantly, why do millions other go along with these crimes as participants? We explore the Perpetration-Induced Trauma and its impact on the societies.
Jay Piatek – a meteorite enthusiast – was in Morocco and he found a stone that was supposed to have been from a meteorite. He bought the – weighing less than a pound – stone and sent it to the researchers in University of New Mexico to analyze it. Their analysis came up with some really interesting insights and finds. Unlike other samples collected by Martian rovers, this stone seemed to be from Martian crust as opposed to the mantle! And, it showed evidence of Water as well!
The meteor seemed to have originated on Mars, but the rock’s composition didn’t exactly match any of the well-studiedmeteorites from there found previously. When the researchers compared it to data from soil and rock samples obtained by Curiosityand other recent Martian rovers, though, they realized that rather than originating in the planet’s mantle, as the others had, it appeared to have come from the Martian crust.
Most intriguingly, when they analyzed the basalticbreccia rock even more closely, they discovered it contained a large quantity of water molecules locked in its crystalline structure. While previous studies of Martian meteorites have suggested the presence of water on the red planet, this sample’s analysis, published today in Science, revealed that it contained 10 times more water than any Martian meteorite examined before.
The discovery of the water molecules in the rock at concentrations of 6000 parts per million could indicate the presence of liquid water sometime during Mars’ history. “The high water content could mean there was an interaction of the rocks with surface water either from volcanic magma, or from fluids from impacting comets during that time,” study co-author Andrew Steele of the Carnegie Institute said in a statement.
