Is CERN Causing Collective Mass Delusion
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in category: particle physics
The Mandela Effect is real but no one knows what causes it. CERN would like you to know it’s not their particle collider.
Cynthia Sue Larson has been on the lookout since July 5, when CERN turned the world’s most powerful particle collider back on for a third time. Larson is looking for “reality shifts and Mandela Effects,” or evidence of multiple universes, timelines, rips in the space-time continuum, or other evidence that reality as we know it has been distorted by the Large Hadron Collider.

Scientists Found a Gap In the Universe That Defies All Logic
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in category: space
If you thought space already had its fair share of terrifying places, think again. We’ve discovered scorching hot planets, inhospitable gas giants with winds faster than 500 miles an hour, and blackholes themselves, but these celestial objects have characteristics.
Imagine a place that’s literally just a void, a gap in space that has absolutely nothing and stretches millions of lightyears. Scientists have found such a gap and it defies all logic, but do we know anything about this gap? Or are these questions going to be unanswered?

The problem of induced voltages in control cables in high voltage substations
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in category: habitats
Cabling in power substations is very important due to the fact that they are the longest parts of a system and therefore act as efficient antennas that pickup and or radiate noise. In HV substations, there are different kinds of conductors close to one another, such as high voltage buses, CTs, VTs, carrier couplers, bushing, control cables, substation ground conductors, and equipment ground connections.
The control cables are used to carry potential transformer outputs, current transformer outputs, circuit breaker control signals, relaying, and other communication signals. Increasingly, electronic equipment is used in switchyards and control houses.

Buzz Aldrin’s Apollo 11 space jacket could fetch $2M at auction
Posted by Genevieve Klien in category: space travel
Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin is giving space enthusiasts an opportunity to own a piece of American history.
The NASA legend’s most personal and cherished possessions will be up for auction through July 26.
The ‘Buzz Aldrin: American Icon’ sale, orchestrated by Sotheby’s Auction House, features the coverall jacket Aldrin wore in 1969 during the Apollo 11 mission, the first successful mission to the Moon and back.

A pilot project in the North Sea will develop floating solar panels that glide over waves ‘like a carpet’
Posted by Genevieve Klien in categories: solar power, sustainability
German energy firm RWE is to invest in a pilot project centered around the deployment of floating solar technology in the North Sea, as part of a wider collaboration focused on the development of “floating solar parks.”
Set to be installed in waters off Ostend, Belgium, the pilot, called Merganser, will have a capacity of 0.5 megawatt peak, or MWp. In a statement earlier this week, RWE said Merganser would be Dutch-Norwegian firm SolarDuck’s first offshore pilot.
RWE said Merganser would provide both itself and SolarDuck with “important first-hand experience in one of the most challenging offshore environments in the world.”
