Sometimes fans of role-playing games can get a little carried away and start doing all sorts of things. Fallout 76 players have encountered similar people

Fallout 76 had a real drama due to RPG fans getting too carried away. The Enclave Armed Forces (EAF) disappeared from social media and went silent following role-playing games went too far. The EAF has become the object of hatred for a significant part of the Fallout 76 community.

Journalists received information that the EAF was forcing players to play Fallout 76 “right”. EAF pursued the guilty players on different servers.

Allegedly, one of the leaders of the General Gray Fox group is a former member of the armed forces and law enforcement agencies. In the EAF group, military ranks were issued, there was appropriate discipline and a code of conduct was in force. Officers were appointed to whom they had to report.

To join the EAF, it was necessary to pass a series of interviews, and also checked the lists of friends on the PlayStation Network. The incoming player had to remove the wrong friends pointed to by EAF.

The journalist tried to play the role of an independent virtual journalist in Fallout 76 and came to the attention of the EAF. The group appealed to the leaders of the main factions and demanded not to contact the journalist. EAF didn’t like her”incorrect publications».

The behavior of the EAF finally got the fans of Fallout 76. At first, the group somehow held on, but gradually the situation began to heat up more and more. As a result, EAF disappeared into the network, the group cleaned up social media resources and the website. The number of “surviving” members of the EAF following the popular anger is unknown.

RAM – Astronomers have discovered the farthest group of stars from Earth that has been observed so far within the boundaries of the Milky Way galaxy, in the stellar halo on its outer borders, regarding halfway to a neighboring galaxy.

The researchers said that these 208 stars reside in the outermost regions of the outer halo, which is a spherical cloud of stars dominated by the mysterious, invisible substance that scientists call dark matter, whose existence is only known through the influence of its gravity.

The most distant of these stars is located at a distance of 1.08 million light-years from Earth. One light year is the distance that light travels in a full year, equal to 9.5 trillion kilometers.

These stars were observed using the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope on Mauna Kea in Hawaii, and they belong to the class of stars called (RR Laray), which has a relatively low mass and is characterized by a lack of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium. The mass of the most distant star is regarding 70 percent of that of the Sun.

No other stars have been reliably measured in the Milky Way at a greater distance than these stars.

These objects that inhabit the far outskirts of the galactic halo can be considered orphan stars, because, according to scientists’ interpretation, they originated in smaller galaxies that collided with the larger Milky Way at a later time.

“Our explanation for the origin of these distant stars is that they were most likely born in the halos of dwarf galaxies and star clusters that were attracted or, more bluntly, swallowed by the Milky Way,” said Yuting Feng, a doctoral researcher in astronomy at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

On January 13, the world’s largest aircraft Roc (Stratolaunch Model 351) with a wingspan of 385 feet (117.3 m) from Stratolaunch Systems made a second test flight with a payload prototype of the Talon-A hypersonic airborne aircraft. This was the Roc’s ninth test flight overall, lasting 6 hours, a record in test history.

In addition to the record duration of the flight, the aircraft was also for the first time in the airspace outside the territory of the Mojave Desert.

Roc took off from the site of the Mojave Aerospace Port in southeastern California on Friday morning and landed there six hours later, at 17:51 local time (Saturday 1:51 Moscow time). According to representatives of Stratolaunch, during the flight the plane reached an altitude of 22,500 feet (6860 meters). The previous test flight of the Roc took place in October last year.

It is reported that tests with a payload under the Captive-carry program with a hypersonic glider Talon-A fixed on a pylon are preparation for the next stage – tests with separation of Talon-A from Roc and subsequent landing. These tests are expected to start at the end of the year.

Stratolaunch CEO and President Zachary Krevor noted the progress in the test schedule, adding that the company is very close to the next stage, which includes both testing the separation of the Talon-A hypersonic airframe from the pylon, and the start of its test flights.
