Worrying about jet lag could actually make it worse, so try to relax on your next long-haul flight.
Eva Winnebeck at Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany, and her colleagues have looked at potential psychological causes of jet leg – the temporary impact of a long flight in which someone feels out of sync with the new time zone. They may struggle to sleep, feel tired and have trouble concentrating.

On March 2, 2019, astronomers reported discovery of a dozen black holes gathered around Sagittarius A (Sgr A ), the supermassive monster in the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, supporting a decades-old prediction. After conducting a cosmic inventory to calculate and categorize stellar-remnant black holes, the astronomers from the University of California concluded that there are probably tens of millions of the enigmatic, dark objects in the Milky Way – far more than expected.
Star S2 orbiting Sagittarius A
Now, observations made with ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) have revealed for the first time that a star, named S2, orbiting Sgr A (artist impression above) –at the very edge of where space-time breaks down. The star moves in an egg-shaped orbit just as predicted by Einstein’s general theory of relativity. Its orbit is not like an ellipse as predicted by Newton’s theory of gravity. This long-sought-after result was made possible by increasingly precise measure

The Future of Cloud-based Spatial Geoscience Data and its Application in Exploration
Well managed, standardized data is vital for the resource industry as it currently undergoes an intense digitalization phase. As most available geoscientific datasets are usually bound by regional extends and have their own attributes and requirements, it is often challenging to merge all data into a consistent global framework which can then be used across boundaries without limits. Lithodat’s vision is to provide geoscientists with global geoscientific databases and built-in analy
