"Just three weeks after 2I/Borisov was first seen, astronomers trained the 4.2-metre William Herschel Telescope in Spains Canary Islands on it and spotted molecules of cyanide gas streaming off the comet. It was the first-ever detection of gas from an alien visitor to the Solar System."Has Congressfume Eric Foulsmell been spotted anywhere in the vicinity of this comet?
There is no such thing as a "gravitational push" -- gravity is only an attractive force. A "pull" if you will.
Neighborly Rendezvous
Traveling to other planets is just like rendezvousing with another spacecraft in a different orbit, because that is exactly what you are doing. The interplanetary spacecraft is moving from Earths orbit to, say, Mars orbit, to rendezvous with the red planet. In traveling to Mars, the spacecraft is moving to a higher orbit. Remember from Orbital Mechanics part 1, to raise the apogee of an orbit, we fire the engines at perigee. On a Mars mission, Earth orbit is the perigeebut since we are leaving the home planet and moving into solar space, it is now called perihelion. Mars orbit is aphelion. A Hohmann Transfer Orbit trajectory does the job nicely, with the engines fired in the direction of Earths movement in its orbit.
If the object in question has engines they can push it, but all gravitational interactions are from attraction (pulls), even the “sling-shot”.
There he is!
It’s most likely coming from Mars. Varlock The Vicious Supreme Ruler of Mars is not amused.
Do you know who The Beatles were? It’s a Beatles song.
For every instance of positive gravitational attraction there is an instance of negative gravitational repulsion. This has been true like forever.
Thx.

Rendezvous with Rama

The composers that are remembered are the CLASSICAL composers. Their music is still being performed and will be performed in 100 years, 500 years, whatever.
My tastes changed from the time I was 16 years old.
I also love opera. Not all opera is good but what IS still around is fabulous. If it weren't it wouldn't be performed.
The classical composers also wrote some TERRIBLE music and operas. But those dogs bit the dust a long time ago, as they should have, and what is left is the best of the best.
The only two forms of music I don’t like are jazz and rap. Rap isn’t music, it noise. Oddly enough though I took lesson from one of the premier jazz drummers ever, the late Joe Morello.
I liked jazz when I was much younger but it got WAY OUT THERE for me. I didn't "get it" anymore. The only name I can even remember in that genre is John Coltrane.
You are correct: rap isn't music. It's talking to a rhythm. Nothing more.
Rhyming isn't difficult. Even children can do that.
