Для малого бизнеса это особенно дорого: штат маленький, размазать рутину не на кого, и нанимать ещё одного человека ради механической работы невыгодно.В... Read more

Using NASA- and JAXA-supported XRISM observations of a galaxy called NGC 4151, researchers found strong evidence that supermassive black holes can unleash powerful winds that blow away the raw material needed to make new stars.
