Has NASA Finally Found Life?

Has NASA finally found evidence of life on another planet? This is a planet twice the size of earth — the first planet whose atmosphere holds DMS (dimethyl sulfide) gas, produced by phytoplankton. The dimethyl sulfide is the giveaway because it’s only produced by living organisms.

Nikku Madhusudhan, an astronomer at the University of Cambridge in Great Britain, announced the discovery in 2023. The planet in question is known as K2-18 b and it orbits a dwarf star in the constellation Leo, approximately 120 light years away from Earth.  It has a radius 2.6 times that of Earth, so it’s unlike any of the planets in our own solar system. Here’s more from Linda Mouton Howe on her channel Earthfiles.

God’s Fingerprint

“Fibonacci numbers are of interest to biologists and physicists because they are frequently observed in various natural objects and phenomena. The branching patterns in trees and leaves, for example, and the distribution of seeds in a raspberry are based on Fibonacci numbers.

A Sanskrit grammarian, Pingala, is credited with the first mention of the sequence of numbers, sometime between the fifth century B.C. and the second or third century A.D. Since Fibonacci introduced the series to Western civilization, it has had a high profile from time to time. Recently, in The Da Vinci Code , for example, the Fibonacci sequence is part of an important clue.”

And here, SerialBrain2 connects the dots, drawing upon the Fibonacci work in mathematics, physics and biology, to begin to show the intelligent design of galaxies and star systems, as well as some of the nefarious forces here on planet Earth that are intent to hold us back, to block our knowledge and to drive a wedge between mankind and our creator.

Cambridge Snubs Peterson

Philosophy professor Jordan Peterson had an offer to teach at the University of Cambridge, but now it’s been revoked. Seems Cambridge is upset over Peterson’s Twitter wars with “raging, harpy feminists.” Tim Pool shares the story and also discusses the latest on Joe Rogan.

Bikini Jelly Wrestling Banned

The bikini jelly party held every year at Great Britain’s University of Cambridge has been cancelled this year. The all-male drinking society, the Wyverns, usually recruits two female students to wrestle with each other, and the winner receives money as a prize.
