Depending on the amount, if landing on solid earth, the effect of dust ejected into the atmosphere might be critically significant in terms of energy dynamics and solar energy production.

In terms of the general topic of asteroid impact and risk, here is a highly informative reference. https://cneos.jpl.nasa.gov/pd/cs/pdc25/ImpactRiskIntro-ATAP-...

I guess you've carefully examined the literature on this topic and decided that contributors reporting positive results are either deluded or charlatans.

On this particular prediction: we know that China graduates more science, technology, engineering and mathematics students each year than the rest of the world combined. According to World Population Review, the highest IQs are found in Asi

Although not quite in the sense intended by the author, point 9 as of January 2025, is only too true. "Why Britain can't afford to carry on as it is."

Tragic? I don't follow that. If the goal isn't to make something useful in one way or another then why would a startup enterprise ever get acquired?

I regularly see opinion pieces in the British Press advising young Brits to get out. In 2022 one writer wrote 'Britain is fed up, bitter, and practically broke – and it’s all going to get worse' and indeed it still is and getting

Depends what you mean by 'general supplement' but a majority of people are deficient in magnesium (~400 mg/d is the recommendation) and its ubiquitous involvement in hundreds of enzyme systems might reasonably indicate that a

Political argument, as such, is worthwhile insofar as it can cause me to reexamine my own preconceptions. Facts I can pick up almost anytime.

No, by then it's at least conceivable that cold fusion will by then be a reality. If an individual cracks this problem maybe they'll offer a paper ending with a comment akin to Watson & Cricks 1953 paper on DNA. "It has

Wonderful book. I'm not sure that 'enjoy' is quite the term I'd use. For sure some of the tribulations experienced by Stoner would not be news to some sufferers in academia right now.

Your comment comes across as markedly authoritative. Are you a climate scientist with first hand knowledge? You appear to be repeating what we all read in countless reports almost daily from innumerable organizations and have done over the

Guilt-tripping? We've got reasoning abilities and in the main can act on our decisions. Nobody guilt-trips any sentient being since they can't be guilty if under duress. If after all this we still do whatever it is we do that we c

When you make accusations like this why not offer a specific illustrative example to avoid suggestions of mere name calling. Scientific consensus?. Actually nutrition & medical science is replete with the abandonment of 'received o

I can see no reason at all to suppose that this might be the case. Quite the reverse given current events and the determination of the current administration.
