Enormous Galaxy Formed When Universe was 6% of Its Present Size Puzzles Astronomers Himiko, a "space blob" named after a legendary queen from ancient Japan, is an enormous galaxy, with a hot glowing gaseous halo extending over 55,000 light-years. Not only is Himiko very large, it is extraordinarily distant, seen at a time approximately 800 million years after the Big Bang, when the universe was only 6 percent of its present size and stars and galaxies were just beginning to form. The Hubble images, receiving optical and ultraviolet light, reveal three stellar clumps covering a space of 20,000 light-years. Each clump is the size of a typical luminous galaxy dating to the epoch of Himiko. Together, the clumps achieve a prodigious rate of star formation, equivalent to about one hundred solar masses per year. This is more than sufficient to explain the existence of Himiko and its gaseous halo. But a surprising anomaly emerged when Himiko was observed by ALMA. Ellis and his fellow astronomers did not come to this conclusion quickly. The Daily Galaxy via CalTech
How To Make a Digital Album Unique: Generate a New One With Every Download Despite what the recording industry may say, it doesn’t matter how many times you copy a digital file — nothing about the original is being “stolen” as a result of the duplication. In some ways, it’s great that physical media has given way to digital distribution: Expenses have shrunk to the cost of maintaining a website or allowing a digital marketplace to have a cut of the profits. But if digital files are identical and can be infinitely replicated, how can they still be worth anything? A clever answer has recently come from one electronic music ensemble: Make music that generates differently every time it’s downloaded. Limited to 1,000 iterations, downloads of “Fake Fish Distribution,” a new album from London-based electronic group Icarus, aren’t “copies” at all: Each purchase generates a unique version of the album based on an algorithm written by the group’s members. Excepts from Edition 500 / 1000 of Icarus’ generative album “Fake Fish Distribution”

NASA's Spitzer Telescope brings 360-degree view of galaxy to our fingertips -- ScienceDaily Touring the Milky Way now is as easy as clicking a button with NASA's new zoomable, 360-degree mosaic presented Thursday at the TEDActive 2014 Conference in Vancouver, Canada. The star-studded panorama of our galaxy is constructed from more than 2 million infrared snapshots taken over the past 10 years by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. "If we actually printed this out, we'd need a billboard as big as the Rose Bowl Stadium to display it," said Robert Hurt, an imaging specialist at NASA's Spitzer Space Science Center in Pasadena, Calif. The 20-gigapixel mosaic uses Microsoft's WorldWide Telescope visualization platform. The image, derived primarily from the Galactic Legacy Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire project, or GLIMPSE, is online at: Spitzer, launched into space in 2003 and has spent more than 10 years studying everything from asteroids in our solar system to the most remote galaxies at the edge of the observable universe.
7 Effective Strategies To Get Your Music Noticed | Echoes – Insight for Independent Artists In some music business schools, they still give students assignments that go like this: “Assume that you have one million dollars. Make up a marketing plan on how to promote a band.” Here’s a realistic assignment: “Go to MySpace. Although most bands would like to have the kind of budget to promote their latest album on TV, radio, and billboards, they are more likely to have just enough to print up posters for the next gig. Here are seven effective strategies to get you and your music noticed. You have one thing to do before you get started, though. Once you know your audience, dig in. SEVEN EFFECTIVE STRATEGIES 1. 1. Don’t start there. The competition for attention in music publications and sites is overwhelming. Instead of focusing on music publications and media, think in terms of audiences. The sailing magazine, which wasn’t used to receiving music, much less an entire album dedicated to exactly what the magazine was about, ended up getting reviewed in the magazine. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Grécia. Nove mitos sobre a crise Grécia. Nove mitos sobre a crise Facebook Twitter O referendo é sobre o euro? James K. Considerando que o referendo do próximo domingo pode determinar a sobrevivência do governo e o destino do país na Europa e na zona euro, o economista salienta que tem acompanhado de perto a crise grega, tanto desde os EUA como desde Atenas, tendo percebido “que há muitos mitos em circulação sobre a crise que devem ser desafiados”. O referendo é sobre o euro Galbraith lembra que assim que o referendo foi anunciado, François Hollande, David Cameron, Matteo Renzi e Sigmar Gabriel, respectivamente líderes de França, Reino Unido, Itália e o vice-chanceler alemão, foram rápidos a dizer que o voto no “não” dava direito à saída do euro. Ora, lembra o economista norte-americano, não só o governo grego tem repetido que qualquer que seja o resultado vai continuar comprometido com a Europa como, “legalmente, e de acordo com os tratados, a Grécia não pode ser expulsa nem do euro nem da União Europeia”.
