  • Interstellar Comet 3I Atlas Update: An exciting update on the interstellar comet 3I Atlas reveals it is brightening much faster than anticipated as it approaches the Sun. With its distinct blue color, astronomers believe it is venting ancient frozen materials, offering a rare glimpse into the chemical composition of an object from another star system. Amateur astronomers can now spot this cosmic visitor with their telescopes!
  • NASA vs. Celebrity Misinformation: A recent claim by Kim Kardashian questioning the authenticity of the 1969 Moon landing prompted NASA to respond publicly. Acting Administrator Sean Duffy reiterated the overwhelming evidence supporting the Moon landings, including lunar rocks and retroreflectors, and extended an invitation to Kardashian to witness the upcoming Artemis mission launch.
  • Ancient White Dwarf Star Discovery: Astronomers have discovered a 3 billion-year-old white dwarf star that is still consuming the remains of its own planet, challenging existing models of stellar evolution. This unique observation suggests that planetary systems can remain active long after their stars have died, providing insights into the future of our own solar system.
  • Debunking the Full Moon Effect: Investigating the long-held belief that the full Moon influences sleep and behavior, a neurologist found minimal evidence for its effects. While people may sleep about 20 minutes less during a full Moon due to increased brightness, claims linking lunar phases to erratic behavior are largely unfounded, attributed instead to psychological patterns of perception.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
