Governor Noem is a seasoned leader who knows how to get things done – not only as chief executive of her home state but also in Washington, DC, where she served with distinction and integrity in the U.S. House of Representatives," Perez wrote in the letter, which was also sent to Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., the incoming Senate majority leader. .... Read more

Every day, invisible to the human eye, thousands of enigmatic flashes of cosmic energy known as fast radio bursts (FRBs) erupt across the sky, releasing as much energy in milliseconds as the sun does in a day. Thanks to their fleeting nature, scientists have often had to rely on luck just to observe FRBs, let alone pinpoint where they come from or what causes them to behave the way they do. Now, astronomers led by Kritti Sharma at the California Institute of Technology posit that such energy-packed light flashes tend to occur in massive, star-forming galaxies from powerful eruptions of rare, long-dead stars known as magnetars. These findings, the researchers say, also point to magnetars themselves being cosmic fusions of two stars, pinning down one potential formation pathway for the mysterious objects.

Diss my kritty crat

[saucyjothoughts]

maybe something on Kris and his Kritties?

Ah yes, the Kris titties.

I know you mean a story/headcannons about Kris's chest, but now you've got me thinking about things to physically put on Kris's chest.

Melted chocolate, lube, cum, candle wax, soft kisses, bite marks, lace, nipple clamps...

last line tag

thank you so much for the tag @abalonetea !! wonderful timing - i actually managed to write a bit today!

from the sins that make our sons :) this blurb is from Prayer's pov!

The chip in his neck sparks, and Automatos’ calculations flood through his mind. With his visible injuries, his lack of uniform, and the other lexurgers’ not-insignificant loyalty to Krittis, their likelihood of detection and detainment sits at 93%.

He hurries past the parking garage without another thought, into the alley. The stun he’d used should last at least another ten to fifteen minutes, and he needs to be far away from here before it wears off.

That is, if the collector doesn’t get to Krittis first.

tagging, w/ no pressure at all, @kaylinalexanderbooks @scbwriter @elsie-writes and leaving this as an open tag to anyone else!!

[funnierasafictive]

at this point I might as well find something to tag us w/- it’s not outerworld or like… on spotify you hear the songs… we have them in headspace and you KNOW when they’re around in headspace because of the songs-

I literally mistook the nintendogs theme as like “I don’t know what this is but it’s probably a case where I hum mettaton’s theme and it morphs into megalovania or the lava area of underground in undertale” NO YOU FOOL THAT DOESN’T LAST 3HOURS OUTERWORLD AND ABOUT ONE 24 HOURS INNERWORLD YOU NINCOMPOOP!!! then I look and try to see innerworld bc we’re at work and it’s HOT and so I tend to front lock myself so everyone else doesn’t deal with the heat and see the NINTENDOGS DOG WE HAVE KEPT DESPITE REPLACING EVERY SINGLE OTHER NINTENDOGS DOG IN OUR GAME FILE WHEN WE WERE LIKE 9 BOBILY(we’re 21 bodily now)

I wish I could make this up but I’m NOT!!! some times you HEAR THE GUYS bc they’re TRAVELING MUSIC OF THEIR SOURCE AND SUCH

- 🍯 <- not my proxy just easier for later anon stuff w/ brain buddies

Not the same, but it reminds us of something very "Only one alter does this" in our system!

Kris T. (Otherwise known as just Kris, or Kritty), gets the sniffles when he's happy and excited. It's a gigantic giveaway for him, so he can't hide when he's nearby! He makes the body catch a cold from excitement! It's such a strange phenomenon.

The closest we have to carrying music around with us is back when Kris T. was newer, and myself (Hello! This is Petrikov speaking).

Mighty radio bursts linked to massive galaxies

Results from Caltech's Deep Synoptic Array-110 provide new clues about how magnetars form

Since their discovery in 2007, fast radio bursts—extremely energetic pulses of radio-frequency light—have lit up the sky repeatedly, leading astronomers on a chase to uncover their origins. Currently, confirmed fast radio bursts, or FRBs, number in the hundreds, and scientists have assembled mounting evidence for what triggers them: highly magnetized neutron stars known as magnetars (neutron stars are a type of dead star). One key piece of evidence came when a magnetar erupted in our own galaxy and several observatories, including Caltech's STARE2 (Survey for Transient Astronomical Radio Emission 2) project, caught the action in real time. 

Now, reporting in the journal Nature, Caltech-led researchers have uncovered where FRBs are more likely to occur in the universe—massive star-forming galaxies rather than low-mass ones. This finding has, in turn, led to new ideas about how magnetars themselves form. Specifically, the work suggests that these exotic dead stars, whose magnetic fields are 100 trillion times stronger than Earth's, often form when two stars merge and later blow up in a supernova. Previously, it was unclear whether magnetars form in this way, from the explosion of two merged stars, or whether they might form when a single star explodes.

"The immense power output of magnetars makes them some of the most fascinating and extreme objects in the universe," says Kritti Sharma, lead author of the new study and a graduate student working with Vikram Ravi, an assistant professor of astronomy at Caltech. "Very little is known about what causes the formation of magnetars upon the death of massive stars. Our work helps to answer this question."

The project began with a search for FRBs using the Deep Synoptic Array-110 (DSA-110), a Caltech project funded by the National Science Foundation and based at the Owens Valley Radio Observatory near Bishop, California. To date, the sprawling radio array has detected and localized 70 FRBs to their specific galaxy of origin (only 23 other FRBs have been localized by other telescopes). In the current study, the researchers analyzed 30 of these localized FRBs. 

"DSA-110 has more than doubled the number of FRBs with known host galaxies," says Ravi. "This is what we built the array to do."

Although FRBs are known to occur in galaxies that are actively forming stars, the team, to its surprise, found that the FRBs tend to occur more often in massive star-forming galaxies than low-mass star-forming galaxies. This alone was interesting because the astronomers had previously thought that FRBs were going off in all types of active galaxies. 

With this new information, the team started to ponder what the results revealed about FRBs. Massive galaxies tend to be metal-rich because the metals in our universe—elements that are manufactured by stars—take time to build up over the course of cosmic history. The fact that FRBs are more common in these metal-rich galaxies implies that the source of FRBs, magnetars, are also more common to these types of galaxies. 

Stars that are rich in metals—which in astronomical terms means elements heavier than hydrogen and helium—tend to grow larger than other stars. "Over time, as galaxies grow, successive generations of stars enrich galaxies with metals as they evolve and die," Ravi says.

What is more, massive stars that explode in supernovae and can become magnetars are more commonly found in pairs. In fact, 84 percent of massive stars are binaries. So, when one massive star in a binary is puffed up due to extra metal content, its excess material gets yanked over to its partner star, which facilitates the ultimate merger of the two stars. These merged stars would have a greater combined magnetic field than that of a single star. 

"A star with more metal content puffs up, drives mass transfer, culminating in a merger, thus forming an even more massive star with a total magnetic field greater than what the individual star would have had," Sharma explains. 

In summary, since FRBs are preferentially observed in massive and metal-rich star-forming galaxies, then magnetars (which are thought to trigger FRBs) are probably also forming in metal-rich environments conducive to the merging of two stars. The results therefore hint that magnetars across the universe originate from the remnants of stellar mergers.

In the future, the team hopes to hunt down more FRBs and their places of origin using DSA-110, and eventually the DSA-2000, an even bigger radio array planned to be built in the Nevada desert and completed in 2028.

"This result is a milestone for the whole DSA team. A lot of the authors on this paper helped build the DSA-110," Ravi says. "And the fact that the DSA-110 is so good at localizing FRBs bodes well for the success of DSA-2000."
