Weird Space Bubbles May Have Caused US Battle Deaths

-
 


 

During the US military siege known as Operation Anaconda in March 2002, a very rare and strange occurrence happened that left 3 soldiers dead, after failing communications.


Bad communications plagued Operation Anaconda, and now researchers say that a strange space weather phenomena was to blame: plasma bubbles.


These wispy clouds of electrically charged gas particles form at night in the upper atmosphere.


Typically around 100 kilometers (62 miles) wide, the bubbles can’t be seen but they can bend and disperse radio waves, interfering with communications.


Joe Comberiate, a physicist at Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Laboratory, is a co-author of the new study along with colleague Michael Kelly.


 They examined atmospheric conditions during the battle that were recorded by a passing NASA satellite.


History of Operation Anaconda: In March 2002 was one of the biggest military operations of the war in Afghanistan, pitting several thousand U.S., NATO and Afghan forces against Taliban and Al-Qaeda militants.

 

At one point in the early hours of of March 4, a team of Navy Seals found themselves trapped on the slopes of Taku Ghar, a snow-covered mountain dividing remote hostile valleys.

by  N.Morgan For decades the public was told that Q-tips are beneficial to our ears. Medical Q-tips remove excess wax from the ear, causing a sweet tingling sensation. However, although seemingly innocent, cotton Q-tips can be a great threat to your ears. Cotton buds are first of all, used improperly. There is no clear instruction on how to use a Q-tip rightfully, which ultimately leads to many people experiencing ear damage. Oftentimes serious, Q-tips are known to cause infections in the ear, aggravating the situation even further. What’s more, some now urge that Q-tips may be entirely responsible for an unwelcome brain infection. The Case that Changed the Idea of Q-tips A story on ear infections has really exposed the dangers of using Q-tips. Namely, a man went to the emergency room, following a bad seizure. The man explained how he experienced pain lasting for a couple of hours, followed by a discharge from his ear. At one point the man also lost some of his hearing a

by  N.Morgan Cannabidiol  is a phytocannabinoid discovered in 1940. It is one of some 113 identified cannabinoids in cannabis plants and accounts for up to 40% of the plant’s extract. In 2018, clinical research on cannabidiol included preliminary studies of anxiety, cognition, movement disorders, and pain.  Cannabidiol can be taken into the body in multiple ways, including by inhalation of cannabis smoke or vapor, as an aerosol spray into the cheek, and by  mouth . It may be supplied as  CBD oil  containing only CBD as the active ingredient (no included tetrahydrocannabinol[THC] or terpenes), a full-plant CBD-dominant hemp extract oil, capsules, dried cannabis, or as a prescription liquid solution.  CBD  does not have the same  psychoactivity  as THC and may change the effects of THC on the body if both are present. As of 2018, the mechanism of action for its  biological effects  has not been determined. Copper Home Page APeX Humic Fulvic Ultra Curcumin Relaxat
