Atlantis

Plato, the ancient Greek philosopher, wrote of a great civilization called Atlantis founded by a race of people who were half god and half human. They lived in a utopia that held great naval power. But their home, located on islands shaped like a series of concentric circles, was destroyed in a great cataclysm. Science : Atlantis probably wasn’t a real place, but a real island civilization may have inspired the tale. Among the contenders is Santorini in Greece. Santorini is now an archipelago, but thousands of years ago it was a single island—a volcano named Thera. Around 3,500 years ago, the volcano blew up in one of the biggest eruptions in human history, destroying the island, setting off tsunamis and blowing tons of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere where it lingered for years and probably caused many cold, wet summers. Those conditions would have ruined harvests in the region and are thought to have contributed to the quick decline of the Minoans, who ha

Philosophy of Magic Precision: An Hourly task that blows my business 10 times!

It was a promising day with great enthusiasm of the billings recorded from the clients, reacted to the climaxing profit. Not quite longer, Mr Stone the HRM of Ketta tech got news that the company has dropped to a tremendous lost of $65m just in a single shit mistake propelled by half-baked expertise that was hired last week. Thus., devastated, confused because the tragedy came. Mr Stone had been warned to take in first class expertise, but due to his gullible act, trying to siphon funds got him this hell-mess. What could have happened to his job?πŸ’”πŸ™†  Yes! the mess caused a decline in his salary, and he vowed never to hire an inexperienced expertise.πŸ˜” A-ha! See how lucky he was? He might not be this lucky next time.😞 Not too long after, Ketta tech found a system of high performing expertise domicile with noble reputations. 😱πŸ’₯πŸ’ The masterpiece culled out here is "No more mistakes, No more high risk" in executing task.    iworker is here to solve all these discrepancies.,

Machine learning predicts new details of geothermal heat flux beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet A paper appearing in Geophysical Research Letters uses machine learning to craft an improved model for understanding geothermal heat flux—heat emanating from the Earth's interior—below the Greenland Ice Sheet. It's a research approach new to glaciology that could lead to more accurate predictions for ice-mass loss and global sea-level rise. Among the key findings: Greenland has an anomalously high heat flux in a relatively large northern region spreading from the interior to the east and west. Southern Greenland has relatively low geothermal heat flux, corresponding with the extent of the North Atlantic Craton, a stable portion of one of the oldest extant continental crusts on the planet. The research model predicts slightly elevated heat flux upstream of several fast-flowing glaciers in Greenland, including Jakobshavn IsbrΓ¦ in the central-west, the fastest moving glacier on Earth.

The Oracle at Delphi

In ancient Greece, in the town of Delphi on the slopes of Mount Parnassus, there was a temple devoted to the god Apollo. Within a sacred chamber, a priestess called the Pythia would breathe in sweet-smelling vapors emanating from a crack in the rock. These vapors would send her into a state of frenzy during which she would channel Apollo and speak gibberish. A priest would then turn that gibberish into prophesies. Science : The temple was a real place, and scientists have  discovered two geologic faults  running beneath the site, now in ruins. Gas was likely emanating from those fissures when the oracle was in action. But researchers have been arguing over the contents of the euphoria-causing gaseous mix. Theories include ethylene, benzene or a mix of carbon dioxide and methane.

Noah's Ark

In the well-known story told among Christians, Jews and Muslims (and in movie theaters this week), God chose to destroy the Earth with a great flood but spared one man, Noah, and his family. On God’s command, Noah built a huge boat, an ark, and filled it with two of every animal. God covered the Earth with water, drowning everyone and everything that once roamed the land. Noah, his family and the animals on the ark survived and repopulated the planet. Science : Similar flood tales are told in many cultures, but there never was a global deluge. For one, there’s just not enough water in the Earth system to cover all the land. But, Nunn says, “it may well be that Noah’s flood is a recollection of a large wave that drowned for a few weeks a particular piece of land and on that piece of land there was nowhere dry to live.” Some geologists think that the Noah story may have been influenced by a catastrophic flooding event in the Black Sea around 5,000 B.C.
