During the festival, people participate in several rituals, such as bathing in holy water, abstaining from food and drink, and standing in the water for at least one hour to ask for protection for their families. All human cultures have their rituals typically repetitive, symbolic behaviors that we experience as purposeful, though we generally can’t explain how they are supposed to work. These rituals can reinforce a sense of community and common beliefs, but their bewildering diversity can also alienate and separate people, particularly when the valued rituals of one culture strike another as bizarre.

Earth s Evolution through Eons: Using the history of argon as a constraint of continental evolution

How can we study crustal development? Scientists have long sought to understand the development of the Earth in particular, what exactly has allowed it to transform into the only known life-harboring planet? Yale graduate student Meng Guo and her advisor Jun Korenaga have aimed to build a piece of this complex puzzle in a recent publication in Science Advances. In the paper, Guo looks into understanding the development of Earth’s crust through a process known as argon degassing. The development of Earth’s crust has been an important area of study since the 1960s; an accurate look into the evolution of crust can shed light on much about the geology and nature of early Earth. Because of this, there have been many different models made to try to accurately predict how Earth’s crust came to be; however, there has been tremendous variation in these estimates. To track the evolution of continental crust is a complicated task, with many different factors. “[Crustal development]
