Record US inflation sparks concern at Pentagon

Defense One: Pentagon Prepares for Arms Cost Rise Amid Record Inflation years of inflation in the US. The portal Defense One writes about this. According to the sources of the publication, the rate of inflation is forcing the Pentagon leadership to prepare for higher wages and an increase in the cost of weapons. As Robert Hale, who worked as the agency's auditor during Barack Obama's presidency, explained, higher inflation will cause contractors to pay their employees more. In turn, this means that weapons prices will also rise. Defense companies that have already faced supply chain problems due to the COVID-19 pandemic also warned that inflation could lead to an increase in the cost of weapons on some current and future contracts.

Оумуамуа снова озадачил ученых

Загадочный межзвездный объект 1I/Оумуамуа, прилетевший в Солнечную систему извне, снова оказался не тем, чем его считали астрономы. В новом исследовании астрофизики из Гарварда утверждают, что Оумуамуа — это вовсе не «азотный айсберг», сообщает Live Science. Странный пришелец в форме сигары, летевший со скоростью 92 тысячи километров в час, был открыт 19 октября 2017 года на основе данных телескопа Pan-STARRS. Сперва его посчитали кометой, но спустя неделю переклассифицировали в астероид. Наблюдения за 1I/Оумуамуа подтвердили, что он никогда не был связан гравитационно с Солнечной системой и, вероятно, является первым межзвездным объектом, открытым астрономами. Ученые до сих пор не знают, что заставило 1I/Оумуамуа ворваться в Солнечную систему, а также из чего состоит этот объект. В марте 2021 года астрофизики из Аризонского университета заявили, что выяснили состав «пришельца». Они утверждали, что 1I/Оумуамуа — это кусок азотного льда, оторвавшийся от планеты, похожей на Плутон, где-то за пределами Солнечной системы. Теперь ученые из Гарварда отрицают эту гипотезу. Они утверждают, что во Вселенной недостаточно азотного льда, чтобы создать такой объект, как Оумуамуа, до 800 метров в длину и до 167 метров в ширину. По их словам, чистый азот в виде льда встречается редко и обнаружен только на Плутоне в очень небольших количествах. Даже если бы весь азотный лед
