[Перевод] Что происходит внутри массивной звезды перед тем, как она взрывается сверхновой?

Когда большинство людей думают о сверхновой, они представляют себе сверхновую типа II, возникающую в результате коллапса ядра. Это массивные звёзды на главной последовательности, которые достигли конца своего существования. Исчерпав запасы водорода, они продолжают синтезировать всё более тяжёлые элементы, пока звезда не потеряет способность удерживать собственную массу. Ядро коллапсирует, и звезда взрывается, на несколько месяцев затмевая всю свою галактику.Когда на небе происходит нечто столь яркое, это ср Read more

Research suggests adults who find it easier to bond with animals than with people aren’t antisocial — they’re drawn to a form of connection where the terms are visible, the loyalty isn’t conditional, and the relationship doesn’t require them to monitor a constantly shifting set of expectations that human attachment taught them to treat as a second job

Tell someone you find it easier to connect with animals than with most people and watch what happens to their face. There’s a brief recalibration. A polite smile that’s doing a little extra work. Maybe a joke about becoming a hermit with cats. The social shorthand for what you just said is well established, and ... Read more Read more
