With Trump’s backing
scandal-plagued Ken Paxton
has won over John Cornyn
in the Texas GOP primary for senator
– but he might lose in November against James Talarico,
a Democrat with a groundswell of popularity
Paxton comes with significant political baggage,
National Republicans worry they will have to spend significantly more with him as the nominee.
Paxton was impeached in 2023 after being accused of corruption,
and reported to the FBI…

Abstract: A method for measuring the altitude and particle size of noctilucent clouds, based on positioning and photometry from wide-angle three-color cameras, has been developed to determine the three velocity components, particle radius, and its derivative with respect to time for different cloud fragments. The updated method is applied to observational data of bright clouds during the summers of 2023-2025. Meridional motion of the cloud is found to be the principal factor driving the change in particle size. The effect of particle size evolution in the presence of a strong latitudinal temperature gradient is also studied.

Traders placed over $1 billion in perfectly timed bets on the Iran war.
On the night of 27 February, the day before the US and Israel would carry out strikes on Iran, an unusual influx of about 150 accounts on Polymarket placed bets that the US would strike Iran the next day.
A New York Times analysis found the bets totaled $855,000, with 16 accounts pocketing more than $100,000 each.
Soon after, a single anonymous Polymarket user, under an account named “Magamyman”, made o…
