In the future Earth, humans have begun a new era of space travel. A young woman named Arya is a talented aerospace engineer who dreams of exploring the distant stars. During a space station construction mission, Arya accidentally discovered an ancient space capsule, which contained ancient maps that guided the unknown route. Arya was so excited regarding this mysterious discovery that she decided to start her interstellar journey aboard this seemingly ancient space capsule full of possibilities. She invites a group of partners equipped with professional skills to join her adventure team, including an outstanding astronomer, a highly skilled mechanical engineer, an adventurous biologist and a pilot who loves space. Together they set off, flying along the route on the map towards an unknown death. During their journey, they encountered various unknown planets and creatures, and every place was full of challenges and surprises. Arya’s dream is not only to find new resources and living space, but also to contact other civilizations and establish friendship and cooperation in space. However, they also faced some difficulties and dangers during their interstellar travel. A hostile race from the edge of the universe is on the lookout for them, trying to stop their adventure, which is of great value to them. During their interstellar adventure, Arya and her companions not only learned how to overcome difficulties and the importance of teamwork, but also discovered the endless wonders and possibilities in the universe.

According to what was published by DW, the traditional rings that surround the planet will not be able to be seen on the Saturn equinox.
The main feature of Saturn is its rings, however, andThese are going to disappear in 2025. But, although it may seem terrible, we must not lose calm, This will just be an optical illusion.
According to what was published by DW, The traditional rings that surround the planet cannot be seen at the Saturn equinox.
The reason?, mainly due to the brightness of the sun, which will head directly towards the planet’s equator, As a result of this, from the Earth, which has a diameter nine times smaller than Saturn, the rings of this star will not be visible.
But, it is not that the rings go away, but that These will be perfectly aligned with the view from Earth, being impossible to see them as always.
However, This is not the first time that this effect has occurred, since the same thing already happened in September 2009, and the next time this phenomenon is replicated will be in October 2038. On the other hand, in 2032, the rings of Saturn can be seen in all their splendor.
The disappearance of the rings
Yes ok, The disappearance of Saturn’s rings, for now, will only be an optical illusionthese are really going to disappear at some point, although this will happen in hundreds of millions of years.
These rings extend for between 70,000 and 140,000 kilometers, although they are very thin, the vast majority being 100 meters thick.

The Euclid Space Telescope, launched in July this year, will map 1/3 of the sky and cover 2 billion galaxies to create the most accurate 3D map of the universe in history. Euclid’s first images are here ✨These five images illustrate Euclid’s full potential; never before has a telescope been able to create such razor-sharp images across such a large patch of the sky, and looking so far into the distant Universe.???? pic.twitter .com/Sug4drvgqs — ESA (@esa) November 7, 2023 The telescope has reached a stable hovering point regarding 1.5 million kilometers from the Earth. After rendezvousing with the James Webb Space Telescope, it began to transmit back its first observations. Earth. ESA Twitter picture The European Space Agency announced the first five images taken by the Euclid Space Telescope at a press conference held at the European Space Operations Center in Darmstadt, Germany. European Space Agency science director Carole Mundell said the images demonstrate the Euclid Space Telescope’s ability to quickly capture the vast sky with extremely high precision. The image includes the magnificent Horsehead Nebula and various spiral and irregular galaxies. ESA Twitter Image According to the European Space Agency, more than 100,000 galaxies are hidden in the background of the Perseus galaxy cluster, some of which are 10 billion light-years away from Earth and have never been seen before. The European Space Agency calls the Euclid Space Telescope a “dark universe detective” whose mission is to investigate why 95% of the universe appears to be composed of dark matter and dark energy, regarding which humans know very little. ESA Twitter Image By capturing light that took 10 billion years to reach Earth, the Euclid Space Telescope will delve into the question of how dark energy drove the expansion of the universe in the 13.8 billion years since the Big Bang. , shouldering a major mission. Several college students in Ningbo used helium balloons to send a teddy bear 28,000 meters into the air. The video was posted online and sparked heated debate. Screenshots from the video show that several college students took a stuffed bear wearing a white lab coat from the University of Nottingham Ningbo in Ningbo to the junction of Fuxin, Liaoning and Tongliao, Inner Mongolia. In the meantime, they also prepared a tank of helium. After a series of preliminary preparations such as weighing, temperature testing, and equipment debugging, the helium balloon carrying the bear took off in the wind and was finally taken to an altitude of 28,000 meters. As the balloon explodes, the bear falls to the ground. Screenshot of the video Screenshot of the video The college students recorded the entire process and posted it online. Many netizens praised it and believed that they had learned real skills in college. Some netizens also questioned whether this would affect the flight of the aircraft. In response to netizens’ questions, the video publisher replied in the comment area that they complied with all rules and regulations. Video screenshot Video screenshot Video screenshot Video screenshot It is reported that the college students chose to take off in the Northeast, a decision made following careful consideration. “At first we wanted to try it in Ningbo, but Zhejiang has more mountainous and hilly terrain, dense cities and dense population. The survey results showed that Zhejiang is not suitable for flying.” After comprehensive consideration of objective factors such as terrain, climate, temperature, wind direction, etc. , and following receiving feedback from relevant departments that “the project did not violate air traffic control,” they decided to return to Northeast China and release the cubs. Screenshot of the video, senior captain Chen Jianguo, said that balloons have a certain impact on aircraft flight safety. Relevant departments have strict regulations regarding the release of balloons to high altitudes. “Everyone is encouraged to try, but you must apply in accordance with the law. No matter where you are or on any terrain, you need to declare to the relevant departments, and you can only release the balloons following obtaining permission.”

Low immunity to serotype 3, approaching rainy season: coping with the dengue epidemic
Several management measures are under discussion, while the dengue epidemic might intensify with the expected return of rain. A first assessment of the “Dengue sans ordo” system, deployed in Kourou in June, was drawn up last week. Screening remains essential to be able to implement management measures adapted to the territory and remind patients of the individual measures to adopt. For All Saints’ Day, ARS and CTG agents also went to cemeteries to remind people of good reflexes to avoid the formation of larval breeding sites.
With 1,599 confirmed cases since the start of the year and while the last few months have been particularly dry, Guyana is experiencing high dengue activity. During the last epidemic, between the end of January 2020 and mid-June 2021, 6,195 probable or confirmed cases were identified, certainly in a particular context since the Covid-19 epidemic began. While the rainy season is expected to return in the coming weeks, Public Health France recalls that the DEN-3 serotype, at the origin of almost all infections this year, “was not at the origin of an epidemic in Guyana for twenty years, which implies low immunity of the population and raises fears of a large-scale epidemic.
Several management measures are under discussion, in anticipation of an increase in contamination. An initial assessment of the “Dengue sans ordo” operation, carried out in June in Kourou, was also drawn up. As a reminder, throughout this month, it was possible to screen for dengue fever in the space city’s laboratories without a doctor’s prescription. The objectives were to make it possible to be screened when they would not have done so if it had been necessary to consult, to detect cases as early as possible to anticipate the associated health management and to allow people to be diagnosed more quickly. early so that they implement appropriate individual management measures such as using repellent products or sleeping under a mosquito net.
People who carried out screening in the Kourou laboratories in June were invited to complete a questionnaire in order to evaluate the system. In total, 228 questionnaires were usable. Among respondents, 77% indicated that they had been tested without a prescription. Although this does not make it possible to definitively validate the relevance of the system, the rate of screenings in Kourou was significantly increasing during this period. Among those who presented themselves with a prescription, some indicated that they were aware of the device but preferred to consult a doctor all the same. Those who opted for “Dengue without prescription” highlighted the simplicity of the system and the excessively long appointment times with the doctor.
With or without a prescription, screening is essential both for the implementation of management measures across the affected territories and to remind patients of the reflexes to adopt when infected. In his last epidemiological update released last week, Public Health France recalls the symptoms of dengue fever and their progression: the febrile phase from D1 to D4, the critical phase from D4 to D7 and the recovery phase. Any person feeling ill and presenting symptoms such as a fever above 38.5° associated with headaches and intense myalgia should immediately contact their doctor or hospital, where dengue fever will be looked for as soon as symptoms appear. first signs.
Any clinically suggestive picture of dengue must be the subject of biological research:
By RT-PCR from D1 to D7 following the start date of the signs; By serology from D5 Indicate the start date of symptoms on the prescription.
For its part, the local authority’s mosquito control service has started spreading operations in Saint-Laurent du Maroni. The CTG announced that it would carry out 3,791 home visits and 246 sweeping operations each month, on average.
