The Medusa and the Snail won a National Book Award in 1981 in the category of Science - Paperback. [3]Maria Popova wrote that the title essay "explored the confounding nature of the self with uncommon insight and originality" and that they "remain among the finest, most insightful writing I have ever savored".
It also had the brightest UVOT afterglow ever recorded once corrected for extinction. [46] It had the largest amount of energy ever recorded in the TeV range, [47] and had the most energetic photons ever recorded for a GRB, peaking at 18 TeV. [25] [20] The burst was ten times brighter than any previous GRB detected by the Swift mission. [48]
GRB 090423 was a gamma-ray burst (GRB) detected by the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission on April 23, 2009, at 07:55:19 UTC whose afterglow was detected in the infrared and enabled astronomers to determine that its redshift is z = 8.2, making it one of the most distant objects detected at that time with a spectroscopic redshift (GN-z11, discovered ...
Parents and caregivers can now find Ms. Rachel's new books, "100 First Words," "My First Coloring Book" and "Potty Time with Bean," wherever books are sold. Extended interview: Jamie Dimon Jamie ...
The brightest gamma ray burst ever detected recently reached our planet. It’s 70 times longer than any other burst we’ve spotted, and effectively blinded our instruments when it hit.

This view, taken with infrared light, is a false-color image of a quasar-starburst tandem with the most luminous starburst ever seen in such a combination. Quasars show evidence of elements heavier than helium , indicating that galaxies underwent a massive phase of star formation , creating population III stars between the time of the Big Bang ...
