The lack of agreement between Russia and the United States on how to repair the 5-year-old leak of the International Space Station
Bob Cabana, chairman of the International Space Station Advisory Committee and a former astronaut, said Wednesday (Nov. 13) that NASA and Roscosmos disagree about the causes and solutions to repair the leak in Russia’s PrK module. The leak in the Russian part of this orbital complex has been going on for five years. A temporary spike in the leak earlier this year has been corrected, and NASA has stressed that the ISS crew is not in immediate danger. Nevertheless, NASA’s Office of the Inspector General called the leak the biggest “safety risk” to the International Space Station. As with any vintage set, maintenance and issues like this are to be expected.

The first 3D alien hunting radar is being built
Just two days after US whistleblowers said Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), commonly known as UFOs, are real and interacting with humans, the Pentagon announced the full-time deployment of its new surveillance capabilities to monitor UFOs. The Pentagon said in its fiscal 2024 report that the capability, known as Gremlin, would be deployed in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. However, the Pentagon maintains that aliens do not exist.
Stress can change memories
Researchers at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto have made progress in understanding the inner workings of this phenomenon. By studying the brains of rats, they found that stress causes the release of endocannabinoids, which are chemicals that usually help us create specific and meaningful memories. However, in large amounts, these endocannabinoids disrupt the brain’s “gatekeeper” neurons, leading to the formation of neural imprints (engrams) of very large and generalized memories. Simply put, a stressful experience isn’t just stored in the brain as a discrete memory. Instead, it triggers a series of associated memories, causing people to react strongly to all kinds of innocuous stimuli, such as fireworks or car fires.
Senior managers of economic businesses should not hesitate to adopt artificial intelligence
