Brazilian researchers find 'terrifying' plastic rocks on remote island



Brazilian researchers have discovered 'terrifying' plastic rocks on a remote island. The rocks, which appear to be made entirely of plastic, were found on the uninhabited beaches of the Trindade and Martin Vaz archipelago, around 1,200 kilometers off the coast of Brazil. The discovery highlights the devastating impact of plastic pollution on even the most remote and isolated areas of the planet. Plastic waste can take hundreds of years to decompose and is a serious threat to marine life, as it can be ingested by animals and cause suffocation or starvation. The finding underscores the urgent need for global action to address plastic pollution and protect the planet's ecosystems.

YOU COULD (THEORETICALLY) SHOOT YOURSELF IN YOUR OWN BACK & THE SOVIETS ACTUALLY TRIED IT & THE SOVIETS/RUSSIANS HAVE BEEN TAKING GUNS INTO SPACE FOR DECADES

  YOU COULD (THEORETICALLY) SHOOT YOURSELF IN YOUR OWN BACK  Imagine being a space traveler circling over the Earth on a spacewalk, for instance, far enough away from your rocket that you could shoot your firearm without imperiling your team. The Earth is in orbit around you, your craft, and everything else at that altitude. In addition, the bullet would also enter orbit around the Earth if you fired your gun at just the right angle, as Live Science explains.  If you don't see why this would be a problem, the following could happen: The bullet will eventually circle the Earth and return to its starting point because orbits are circular. According to Brown University astronomer Peter Schultz, as reported by Live Science, "you will have effectively shot yourself in the back because you are now positioned between the bullet and the starting point to which it is returning". "The goal must be flawless", he added. Keep in mind that, as Schultz explained, scientists ha...
