OF THE
TIMES
Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well... You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect...
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
Back to the topic, I think Xi's intention here is to drive a wedge between the US and Europe. France is historically more independant than other...
Or this video of a Russian soldier: "Guy casually shrugs off 3 FPV strikes, drops a grenade into a dugout before jumping in, just in time to be...

"...The thin, blood-red shells are actually the remnants from when an unstable progenitor star exploded violently as a supernova around 600 years ago..."
"SNR 0519 is located over 150 000 light-years from Earth..."
This makes no sense. If the nebula is over 150,000 lights years from Earth, then we are seeing it as it existed over 150,000 years ago. Light from something that happened 600 years ago would barely be beginning its journey to us.
Perhaps the author means that the supernova occurred 600 years prior to what we see today -- that 600 years ago, the supernova was -- or could have been -- seen on Earth?
