HESS Collaboration has published important paper in Nature: detected gamma rays coming from Milky Way’s black hole indicating that PeV cosmic rays come from same source. Widom-Larsen-Srivastava theory provides many-body collective mechanism that can accelerate protons to PeV and higher energies in the immediate vicinity of such black holes. Cosmic ray particle energies depend upon field strength in magnetic structures, size of structure, and duration of charged particle accleration.
Gravitational Wave Astronomy is a fascinating discovery made a few years ago that changed the notions of modern physics. This presentation won the 3rd Prize in the SPIE student chapter's Oral Presetation in my college.
Gravitational waves are 'ripples' in the fabric of space-time caused by some of the most violent and energetic processes in the Universe. Albert Einstein predicted the existence of gravitational waves in 1916 in his general theory of relativity.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

The infamous Mallox is the digital Robin Hoods of our time, except they steal from everyone and give to themselves. Since mid-2021, they've been playing hide and seek with unsecured Microsoft SQL servers, encrypting data, and then graciously offering to give it back for a modest Bitcoin donation.
Mallox decided to go shopping for new malware toys, adding the Remcos RAT, BatCloak, and a sprinkle of Metasploit to their collection. They're now playing a game of "Catch me if you can" with antivirus software, using their FUD obfuscator packers to turn their ransomware into the digital equivalent of a ninja.

This document provides a analysis of the Target Company ransomware group, also known as Smallpox, which has been rapidly evolving since its first identification in June 2021.
The analysis delves into various aspects of the group's operations, including its distinctive practice of appending targeted organizations' names to encrypted files, the evolution of its encryption algorithms, and its tactics for establishing persistence and evading defenses.
The insights gained from this analysis are crucial for informing defense strategies and enhancing preparedness against such evolving cyber threats.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
3. SpaceX Falcon Heavy
• Competive with Saturn V but much cheaper lift cost
– Approx $1000/kg to LEO
• Aimed at lunar and mars mission
• Lift capacity is twice that of any other (rocket based)
launch vehicle
– 53 metric tons – picture fully loaded Boeing 737 to orbit,
passengers, luggage and all.
• Propellant cross-feed from side boosters leaving
central core with more propellant for next boost phase
– Only needed for missions over 100,000 lbs.
4. Falcon Heavy..
• Higher structural margins than any other rocket
– Yet better mass ratio than an vehicle to date
• Falcon 9 launch mission cost is $50-60m
• Falcon Heavy is $80-125m
– Both prices include all non-recurring missing cost and
on-orbit delivery
– Even the Falcon Heavy cost is less than ¼ of the
budgeted per launch cost the Air Force employees
• Free Enterprise rules!
5. Falcon Heavy Vehicle Overview
• Mass to orbit (200 km, 28.5 deg)
– 53 metric tons (117,000 lbs)

10. Anti-Gravity as cause of universe
expansion?
• Although normal matter attracts normal matter and
antimatter attracts antimatter..
– Does matter attract antimatter or repeal it?
• According to General Relativity
– It looks like they may repeal each other
• If correct it obviates the need for Dark Energy to
explain cosmic expansion
• It would also offer some explanation for little
antimatter seeming to be around
• But can you use it for an anti-gravity device or space
drive?
– Hmmm…
11. Titan may have subsurface ocean
• On basis of gravity and radar
– Moments of inertia are off for a solid body
– Likely more liquid core
• Unknown what that liquid is.
• But a liquid water ocean under an ice surface is
suspected
– A model with these assumptions matches the data
obtained much better.
12. Inflatable antennaes
• Emergency Satellite comms for earth and
space
– Can be quickly deployed for remote hard to reach
places
– Can provide internet, VOIP, email, etc
– Complete system sets up in 45 minutes, 15 to take
down
– Fits in two suitcases.
13. A boom in sending people to space
• SpaceX Falcon Heavy flies in 2012/2013
• Bigelow Aerospace makes inflatable space station
and is expanding by 1100%
– Together means that stations bigger than ISS are
single launch
• Russia is developing a megawatt nuclear power
system for space
• Vasimir plasma 200 kw rockets will be flown
shortly
• Solar electric sail prototype flies next year
– May be used to shepherd asteroids
14. Shepherding asteroids
• Very low thrust engines may be used to move
asteroids slow
– Consider conglomeration of asteroids with living
space within them.
• AsterAnts proposal for moving large number of <
1 m dia. Asteroids
• When an asteroid is in place it would locked in
• Easier to move a lot of small asteroids slowly than
hollow out a large one
17. Electric Solar Sail
• 50 – 100 20 km conducting wires
– Interact with charged solar flux
– The electric field of each wire extends 10s of
meters
– So solar wind ions act as if this is a large solid sail
– Can theorectically achieve thousands of newtons
of propulsion.
Rememeber when we were wondering what the SpaceX announcement was going to be? Back then we commented on nine engines in one rocket.This beauty has three of those for a total of 27 merlin engines.

Giant nebula around Lambda Orionis seen by WISE in infrared.http://wise.ssl.berkeley.edu/gallery_lambda_orionis.html
A rich collection of colorful astronomical objects is revealed in this picturesque image of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex from NASA’s Wide-field Infrared Explorer, or WISE. The Rho Ophiuchi cloud (pronounced ‘oh-fee-yoo-ki’ and named after a bright star in the region) is found rising above the plane of the Milky Way in the night sky, bordering the constellations Ophiuchus and Scorpius. It’s one of the nearest star-forming regions to Earth, allowing us to resolve much more detail than in more distant similar regions, like the Orion nebula.http://wise.ssl.berkeley.edu/gallery_rho_ophiuchi.html
This is a star-forming cloud of dust and gas located in the constellation of Monoceros. The nebula, commonly referred to as Sh2-284, is relatively isolated at the very end of an outer spiral arm of the Milky Way Galaxy. In the night sky, it’s located in the opposite direction from the center of the Milky Way.Deep inside Sh2-284 resides an open star cluster, called Dolidze 25, that is emitting vast amounts of radiation in all directions, along with stellar winds. These stellar winds and radiation are clearing out a cavern inside the surrounding gas and dust, creating the void seen in the center. http://wise.ssl.berkeley.edu/gallery_LBN211.91-01.37.html
To resolve this question, Villata needed to institute the second assumption – that general relativity is CPT invariant.This means that the laws governing an ordinary matter particle in an ordinary field in spacetime can be applied equally well to scenarios in which charge (electric charge and internal quantum numbers), parity (spatial coordinates) and time are reversed, as they are for antimatter.When you reverse the equations of general relativity in charge, parity and time for either the particle or the field the particle is traveling in, the result is a change of sign in the gravity term, making it negative instead of positive and implying so-called antigravity between the two.In other words, if general relativity is, in fact, CPT invariant, antigravity would cause particles and antiparticles to mutually repel. On a much larger scale, Villata claims that the universe is expanding because of this powerful repulsion between matter and antimatter.http://nextbigfuture.com/2011/04/antigravity-could-replace-dark-energy.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_Specific_Impulse_Magnetoplasma_Rocketelectro-magnetic thruster for spacecraft propulsion. It uses radio waves to ionize and heat a propellant and magnetic fields to accelerate the resulting plasma to generate thrust. It is one of several types of spacecraft electric propulsion systems.The method of heating plasma used in VASIMR was originally developed as a result of research intonuclear fusion. VASIMR is intended to bridge the gap between high-thrust, low-specific impulse propulsion systems and low-thrust, high-specific impulse systemsA Visimr ship is relatively slow but is very efficient. They are especially useful as space tugs moving cargo from LEO to GEO or from GEO to a lunar orbit.http://www.adastrarocket.com/aarc/
http://nextbigfuture.com/2011/03/koroteev-at-heart-of-russias-megawatt.htmlThe Russian space nuclear power supply is especially useful as a faster space tug for moving cargos from LEO to GEO. These power modules are of course also useful generally in near earth space, on the moon as as modular basis for larger space habitats.
It is the largest commercial space launch contract with any single entity. The contract is worth an estimated $3 billion. This contract will utilize Falcon 9 launch vehicles. They will also complete the planned 72 satellite fleet in only eight launches of nine satellites each.Sixty-six of these satellites will be fully operational; the remaining six will be on-orbit spares (in case there is a contingency with any of the operating satellites). Iridium will also have nine additional ground spares.
Cosmologists have known for some time that there are regions inside charged, rotating black holes where objects such as photons can survive in stable periodic orbits.Dokuchaev's contribution is to study these orbits in detail and to explore their dynamics. One of the problems that would at first seem to scupper any chance of planetary orbits inside a black hole is the way that the dimensions of space and time behave.It's well known that a traveller passing through a black hole's event horizon arrives in a region in which the radial dimension becomes time-like, rather than space-like. Conventional orbits are clearly impossible here.But travel further in and there is another horizon where the dimensions switch back again (at least, inside charged and rotating black holes). This is the inner Cauchy horizon and it's beyond here that Dokuchaev says the interesting orbits for massive planets exist.He calculates that the stable orbits are nonequatorial and have a rich structure (see picture above). They would also be brightly illuminated by the central singularity and by photons trapped in the same orbit.That raises an interesting question: whether a planet in such an orbit could support a complex chemistry that is rich enough to allow life to evolve.Dokuchaev clearly thinks so. "Advanced civilizations may live safely inside the supermassiveBHs in the galactic nuclei without being visible from the outside," he says, somewhat speculatively.Of course, such a civilisation would have to cope with extraordinary conditions such as huge tidal forces and the huge energy density that builds up in these stable orbits as photons become trapped. There's also the small problem of causality violations, which some cosmologists predict would plague this kind of tortured space-time.
