Each colored dot represents a galaxy, which, in turn, consists of 100 billion or 1 trillion stars. A group of scientists from the Kit Peak National Observatory in Arizona has been collecting and combining images of different parts of the universe taken by the DESI astronomical instrument mounted on the Mayall telescope for six years.

However, since the 1980s, the trend has gone in the opposite direction. Moreover, scientists have found that in the late 2000s, the trend to replace logical reasoning with arguments based on feelings has greatly accelerated. Presumably, due to the growing popularity of social media. “Whatever the driving forces of this trend, our results show that the phenomenon
