    Mathematicians find 12,000 new solutions to 'unsolvable' 3-body problem

    Seems the fixed point would allow for a "solution" for the problem the escapes the original one. I wish I had more time to play with the math.

    Tracking, but the fixed point changes the fundamental complexity of the n-body problem as the coordinates are in relation to that point. Am I over simplifying?

    Not trying to be funny, but this suggests a 4-body problem with the 4th being a fixed location. With all calculations in reference to the fixed location, this changes the nature of the original 3-body problem. Am I interpreting correctly?

    Why NASA jets will chase the April 8 total solar eclipse (video)

    There will be multiple solar eclipses in the future. There are multiple sites available to show where/when they will occur. For example: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/list-total-solar.html https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/...

    Why NASA jets will chase the April 8 total solar eclipse (video)

    Your statement makes no sense. Please clarify. This eclipse has already occurred.

    Why is the sun moving so fast in this solar eclipse video?

    It isn't as previously discussed.

    Why didn't Michael Collins take any photograph or footage of space while going over the dark side of the moon?

    Dark side of the moon is a misnomer. It is "dark", as in unknown. Not dark as in relation to an absence of light. Tidal locking keeps one side facing the Earth. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_side_of_the_Moon

    Uprated Starship/Superheavy

    I would assume your observation has been taken into account, as necessary. I am not the biggest fan of SpaceX and its owner, but they do some decent engineering. Have to give them credit where credit is due.

    Ingenuity team says goodbye to pioneering Mars helicopter

    An amazing feat of science and engineering. I look forward to seeing how this technology evolves. Well done, team. You did good!

    SETI chief says US has no evidence for alien technology. 'And we never have

    Thank you for the suggestion. Sorry, but there is nothing of substance there. The U does not mean extraterrestrial. I am more than familiar with all of those sensor platforms and how they work, including their capabilities and limitations.

    SETI chief says US has no evidence for alien technology. 'And we never have

    Agreed. Even if one is not willing to accept the reality of the matter.

    Boeing Starliner spacecraft rolls out to Atlas V rocket ahead of 1st astronaut launch (photos)

    I think maybe colocated? Interesting word choice, no doubt.

    SETI chief says US has no evidence for alien technology. 'And we never have

    I have no doubt you saw something. As to what it was is in question. Eyewitness testimony is often misleading. That is an endless debate all in itself. Riddle me this. With all the high-definition cameras covering the globe, why do none of them ever capture a clear image of these UAPs/UFOs...

    So, what do you think is happening in the video?
