Lieber Pauli... Read the translation of the letter sent by Werner Heisenberg to Wolfgang Pauli on 9 July 1925. The original letter is preserved in CERN’s Wolfgang Pauli Archive. (Copyright: Heisenberg Society) Dear Pauli, If you believe that I read your letter laughing mockingly, then you are gravely mistaken; quite the contrary – since Helgoland, my views on mechanics have become more radical with each passing day, and it is my firm conviction that Bohr’s theory of the hydrogen atom, in its pre

This 19-year-old’s space company just raised millions to keep satellites connected 24/7

techcrunch.com Jagmeet Singh 2026-01-26 09:12:21

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-27 22:30:47

Russia is a waning space power, but President Vladimir Putin has made sure he still has a saber to rattle in orbit. This has become more evident in recent weeks, when we saw a pair of rocket launches carrying top-secret military payloads, the release of a mysterious object from a Russian mothership in orbit, and a sequence of complex formation-flying maneuvers with a trio of satellites nearly 400 miles up. In isolation, each of these things would catch the attention of Western analysts. Taken

Disposable diapers are a massive environmental offender.

One alternative approach has been compostable diapers, which can be made out of wood pulp or bamboo. But composting services aren't universally available and some of the products are less absorbent than normal nappies, critics say. A growing number of
