JWST's Early Galaxies Didn't Break the Universe. They Revealed It.

Coverage: 2 sources

Back when the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) first opened its eyes on the Universe, there were a number of observations that delighted astronomers. Star-forming regions came into view crisper than ever, revealing gas, dust, knots, and the sites of new stars, protostars, and planets at a deeper level than ever before. Planetary features within our own Solar System appeared sharper than any remote observatory had ever revealed. Features around …See the Story

American science to soon face its largest brain drain in history

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

From World War II until 2024, the US stood unchallenged as the scientific leader of the free world. Across practically every discipline — physics, materials science, astronomy, chemistry, biology, medicine, geology, etc. — American scientific missions and initiatives, often in collaboration with European, Canadian, Asian, and many other global partners, brought us new advances and breakthroughs, paving the way for generations of scientists to th…Science · United States See the Story

Ask Ethan: Could the CMB arise from galaxies, not the Big Bang?

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Every once in a while, an idea comes along that turns our conventional understanding of the Universe on its head. We have our current understanding of the Universe: the laws that govern reality, the conditions and properties of the physical Universe, and the initial conditions that gave rise to the cosmos we observe today. But sometimes, surprises fall into our lap, and they cause us to re-evaluate everything we think we know. However, new infor…United States · United States Read Article

Brian Cox: The Planck scale is where physics breaks

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

What happens when you try to look too closely at the fabric of the universe? When we gaze at a Planck length, a scale so small that even light becomes useless for observation, physics pushes back. The Planck length is not just a tiny number, it’s a boundary where gravity, quantum mechanics, and relativity collide. Physicist Brian Cox explains why the measurement is a portal to the deep structure of reality, and why going beyond it may break the…Brian Cox Read Article

Inside the subtle art of succession

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Over the past few years, I’ve come to see succession as more than a corporate formality — or a brilliant HBO series. It’s the essential tool to building anything that lasts. Put simply: if you care about compounding over time, you need systems that outlive you. That’s why I’m excited to announce a new collaboration with VestGen Wealth Partners, where I’ll be writing a column on the art of succession — in business, investing, and life. The first …Lombardy, Italy · Lombardy Read Article

Here in the 21st century, we’ve learned so much more about our Universe than we could have imagined even just a single generation ago. Back in 1990, we hadn’t discovered any planets orbiting stars beyond our own Solar System; today, we’re closing in on 6000 confirmed exoplanets. Back then, the only prospects for life beyond Earth were potential microbes on planets or moons in our backyard; now, we know of scores of stars that may host living wor…United States · United States Read Article

The noble lie: Why countries that lie together, stay together

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

In some ways, the idea of a nation is a strange thing. You can understand families, tribes, clans, and small villages a bit more easily. It makes sense for a species to look after its kin, and there’s a compelling argument to be made that reciprocal friendships are evolutionarily advantageous in some way. We are a social animal. A nation, though, takes a bit more explaining. How can you develop a sense of unity and connection between millions of…United Kingdom · United Kingdom Read Article

The SXSW Conference in Austin, Texas, is a weeklong celebration of culture, education, music, film, and tech. I (Mike) have been a regular attendee and speaker since Buddy Media’s early days. It’s always enlightening and memorable, but never more so than in March 2011. Gary Vaynerchuk was hosting one of his infamous “jam sessions.” Instead of hitting one of the bars on Austin’s Sixth Street or attending the always-raucous Foursquare party, Gary…Startups · Austin Read Article

“Blue ocean strategy”: The red thread connecting Apple with Yellow Tail

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Developed by Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne, two professors of strategy at INSEAD [business school], the central idea of blue ocean strategy is that instead of competing directly with competitors in an existing market, organizations should focus on finding new markets. There are several reasons for this approach, but the most compelling is clear: the opportunity to create a monopoly and reap the returns before competitors enter the new market you …Professors · Australia Read Article
