The Zone of Avoidance is a region of the sky that's obscured by the disk of the Milky Way. The gas and dust block our view in visible telescopes, but other wavelengths like radio and infrared can pierce it to see what's on the other side. Astronomers used the MeerKAT radio telescope to survey beyond the Zone, observing hundreds of galaxies, of which only 29% were already known. This is helping to map the Great Attractor galaxy cluster on the far side of the Milky Way.

Will we ever understand how life got started on Earth? We’ve learned much about Earth’s long, multi-billion-year history, but a detailed understanding of how the planet’s atmospheric chemistry evolved still eludes us.

Německému kancléři Olafu Scholzovi selhala zdržovací taktika. Po rozpadu vlády počítal s vypsáním předčasných voleb v březnu příštího roku. S tímto plánem narazil, volby proběhnou už 23. února. Opoziční favorit na kancléře Friedrich Merz prosazuje silnější podporu Ukrajiny.
Před 50 lety zavraždil ve městě Amityville třiadvacetiletý Ronald DeFeo celou svou rodinu. Motivy zločinu jsou dodnes neznámé a celý příběh je opředen mnoha nevyjasněnými okolnostmi. Není proto divu, že lidoví vypravěči a filmoví scénáristé začali vinu svalovat na démony. Strašidelné filmy o posedlém domu v Amityville nejsou bohužel jedinou hororovou sérií inspirovanou skutečnými událostmi.
Slovenský premiér Robert Fico minulý týden navštívil Čínu. Dle novináře Arpáda Soltésze směřuje Slovensko k opakování čínského scénáře v Maďarsku.

Pro hromadné násilí proti Izraelcům v holandském Amsterdamu jen proto, že jsou Židé, se vžilo slovo „pogrom“. I když je původem z ruštiny, dobře vystihuje smysl události – je to pokus o genocidu v malém. Jak známo, v kapce mořské vody je vždy přítomen celý oceán se všemi jeho příznaky a kvalitami. Leč ve většině znaleckých posudků k amsterdamskému pogromu se zračí snaha nepochopit, nebo za každou cenu pokřivit jeho niterný původ a význam.
Kdykoli to někdo v uplynulých měsících řekl nahlas, znělo to jako vtip. Mike Tyson, světová boxerská legenda, která byla v ringu naposledy v roce 2005, bude v osmapadesáti letech znovu zápasit. Železný boxer v důchodu neodolal lákavé nabídce hubatého sedmadvacetiletého influencera Jakea Paula, který se pokořením legendy chce vydat na cestu profesionálního šampiona boxu. Serióznosti akce navíc moc nepřidalo, že byla v červnu odsunuta z původního termínu. Nyní je ale všechno jinak. Oba bojovníci zveřejnili svá tréninková videa, ve kterých dřou jako koně. Proběhly mediální tréninky i tiskové konference. Do Texasu míří na boxerský galavečer sto tisíc lidí a na Netflixu, který to bude pro své předplatitele streamovat živě, se jej chystá zhlédnout sto milionů diváků. Díky pozvání Netflixu jsem v texaském Arlingtonu osobně a na webu reflex.cz vám přinesu postřehy z této monstr akce.
