Bizarre Cosmic Rays Are Shooting Out Of Antarctica And Physicists Can't Explain It

During ANITA’s time in the Antarctic, it detected never before seen “upward-pointing cosmic-ray-like events.” The rays detected had horizontal planes of polarization, which may suggest they didn’t originate in space. The detection of these events means a new type of particle may have been evading detection by sophisticated particle accelerators since we began using sophisticated particle accelerators.

 

Thanks to the Standard Model, physicists have known that cosmic rays are capable of reaching and penetrating Earth. However, according to the model, those rays shouldn’t be able to pass all the way through our planet. So are the anomalous high energy particles measured by ANITA originating from Earth, or are they actually passing through it?

Report Cites Weaknesses in Industries Vital to U.S. National Defense

 

The sharp drop in military spending between 2013 and 2015 also hit industry hard, though the trend has reversed. The last two defense budgets added $75 billion for procurement and research, a 15% bump over fiscal 2017. The 2019 budget also is the first in a decade that Congress has passed on time, providing companies with more certainty for investment and hiring decisions.

 

Nearly 17,000 U.S. firms stopped serving the defense department as prime contractors between 2001 and 2015, according to a study by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a think tank.

 

That, in turn, led thousands of workers to leave the defense industry, while big contractors such as Boeing Co. and Northrop Grumman Corp. shed thousands more as part of cost-cutting efforts. The result has been worker shortages, exacerbated by delays in approving security clearances and competition for staff from the tech industry, as the biggest challenge, say industry executives
