“6,300 mosquitos traveling at one mile per hour “

Doesn’t sound like much energy.

What’s really mind blowing is that the neutrino may have travelled across the entire visible universe at near the speed of light starting from the Big Bang just to smash into a random electron on a obscure planet in the middle of nowhere (Earth) and get detected by a living intelligent species made of matter that didn’t even exist when it was created. How rare is that!

” . . . or one mosquito traveling 8.2 times the speed of sound.”

I’m pretty sure I had that s. o. b. in my bedroom one warm night last summer - never could quiet it, even when I had to resort to chemical warfare instead of standard kinetic weapons.

“6,300 mosquitos traveling at one mile per hour”

I’ve driven through clouds of mosquitoes 10x as large on the NC coast in September.

He wrote "That’s 450 times the energy that the Large Hadron Collider is expected to produce after it’s done being upgrade, ... when he could have written "after it’s complete". I get the gist but, science writers ain't what they used to be.

Matter and antimatter are created from energy ( γ → e− + e+) on a regular basis in nuclear decay. the common phenomenon of “pair production” Thunderstorms create this paired production.

So, what's your take on this story...

"6,300 mosquitos traveling at one mile per hour — or one mosquito traveling 8.2 times the speed of sound"

So how do I convert that to my preferred "when pigs fly" standard?
