Saturn’s iconic rings are disappearing

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:59:29 GMT

By Ashley Strickland | CNNSaturn’s iconic icy rings may not be around for future skygazers to glimpse at through their telescopes, according to new research.A new analysis of data captured by NASA’s Cassini mission, which orbited the gas giant planet between 2004 and 2017, has revealed new insights into how long the rings have been around and when they may vanish from sight. The findings have been shared in three studies published in May.Our solar system and its planets formed about 4.6 billion years ago, and scientists have long debated the age and origin of Saturn’s rings. Some astronomers have argued that the bright, icy rings must be younger than expected because they haven’t been eroded and darkened by interactions with meteoroids across billions of years.The Cassini data has led to a new finding, published May 15 in the journal Icarus, that supports this theory of the rings appearing long after Saturn’s initial formation. Additional studies published on May 12 in Science Advan...

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:59:29 GMT

Knotty relationships wherein honesty doesn’t always prevail figure prominently in two of the best releases this week, one that’s popping up in theaters, the other on Apple TV+.Our Memorial Day weekend roundup also features a decent Gerard Butler spy thriller and a shockingly good Shudder! shocker and a worthwhile documentary on PBS.Here’s what’s worth seeing this long weekend:“You Hurt My Feelings”: It’s impossible not to develop a little crush, even if it’s a fleeting one, on Julia Louis-Dreyfus whenever she’s onscreen. Part of her appeal can be attributed to her frequently portraying people we relate to: Flawed humans who don’t always say and do the appropriate thing and often find themselves tangled up in a tight ball of neuroses.With “You Hurt My Feelings,” she’s paired, for a second time, with her ideal filmmaking muse, the sly chronicler of modern uneasiness and disorienting moral aches and pains, Nicole Holofcener.

Leaked Report: “CIA Does Not Know” if Israel Plans to Bomb Iran

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 15:59:29 GMT

Whether Israel’s escalating threats of war with Iran over its nuclear program are saber-rattling or something more serious is a mystery even to the CIA, according to a portion of a top-secret intelligence report leaked on the platform Discord earlier this year. The uncertainty about the intentions of one of the U.S.’s closest allies calls into question the basis of the “ironclad” support for Israel publicly espoused by the Biden administration.The report — which was first covered by the Israeli channel i24 News and subsequently posted by DDoSecrets, a group that publishes leaked documents — reveals an undisclosed military exercise conducted by Israel. “On 20 February, Israel conducted a large-scale air exercise,” the intelligence report, produced by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence on February 23, states. The exercise, it says, was “probably to simulate a strike on Iran’s nuclear program and possibly to demonstrate Jerusalem’s resolve to act against Te...
