• The Vega star system is one of the most studied in astronomy due to its proximity, brightness, and unique characteristics that challenge our understanding of planet formation and stellar evolution. Located just 25 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Lyra, Vega is a blue-white star and the fifth-brightest star visible in our night sky. Here's a breakdown of the most intriguing features of the Vega system:

    1. Dust Disk Discovery
    Infrared Excess: In the 1980s, the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) discovered an excess of infrared radiation from Vega, indicating a dust disk around the star. This disk emits infrared radiation as dust particles are heated by Vega's light, suggesting an early model of a protoplanetary or debris disk.
    Smooth Disk: Unlike other systems like Fomalhaut, Vega’s disk is remarkably smooth, lacking the gaps and rings typically associated with planets disturbing the dust. This smoothness implies that Vega may lack substantial planetary influences or that planets there may be few and more challenging to detect.
    2. Potential "Hot Neptune"
    Astronomers have hypothesized that Vega might host a hot Neptune—a large planet orbiting close to the star, with a mass similar to that of Uranus or Neptune. If present, this planet could slightly perturb the disk, though not enough to create the pronounced structures seen in other systems.
    3. Asteroid Belt Analogy
    Collapse
    Observations suggest that Vega may contain a large asteroid belt similar to our Solar System's, with a spread-out disk of rocky material. This possible asteroid belt might add to the dust observed around Vega and could provide insights into the early formation phases of planetary systems.
    4. Historical and Cultural Significance
    Former Pole Star: Around 14,000 years ago, Earth's axis pointed toward Vega, making it the northern pole star until approximately 12,000 BC. The star held great significance for ancient civilizations due to its prominence.
    Name and Mythology: The name "Vega," originally spelled "Wega," comes from the Arabic "Al Nasr al Waki," meaning "Swooping Eagle." Vega is a cornerstone of the Summer Triangle, a prominent asterism for northern hemisphere skywatchers, along with Altair and Deneb.
    5. Milestones in Astronomy
    First Stellar Spectrum: Vega was the first star to have its spectrum recorded in 1850, helping astronomers study stellar composition and temperature.
    Early Photographic Milestone: It was also the second star, after the Sun, to be photographed, marking a major step in astronomical imaging.
    6. Variable Star Characteristics
    Vega is classified as a Delta Scuti variable, with slight pulsations that cause small changes in its brightness over time. Although minimal, these fluctuations provide valuable data for stellar research and challenge Vega's historic role as a "constant" in brightness.
    7. Future Research and Exploration
    With its dust disk and potential hot Neptune, Vega remains a prime target for studying alternative pathways in planetary system evolution. Optical spectroscopy allows astronomers to analyze parameters such as star formation rates and chemical composition, shedding light on the processes within Vega's disk and its potential for planet formation.
    8. Vega's characteristics—its smooth disk, possible planetary companions, and cultural prominence—continue to intrigue astronomers. Future missions and telescopes may reveal more about this iconic star system, potentially uncovering planets or additional features that reshape our understanding of how stars and planetary systems evolve.

  • Bayesian Method specifying hierarchical models for complex data by defining joint distributions of processes and parameters.

    Bayesian refers to concepts and methods related to Bayesian probability and statistics, which are based on Bayes' theorem. This approach is named after the Reverend Thomas Bayes, an 18th-century mathematician and theologian who formulated a specific case of what is now called Bayes' theorem.
    At its core, Bayes' theorem provides a way to update the probability of a hypothesis as more evidence or information becomes available. (such as rain tomorrow) or (such as a population mean), but Bayesian inference remained extremely difficult to implement until the late 1980s and early 1990s when powerful computers became widely accessible and new computational methods were developed, a concept were mathematically defined, which it's not).
    Machine Learning: Bayesian methods are used in algorithms like Bayesian networks, Gaussian processes, and Bayesian neural networks.

  • When A Government Becomes A Corporation, What You Need To Know

    9 November 2018

    There no longer exists any form of representative government under the framework that is the United Nations Charter. The U.N. platform is offered as a contract and is then enforced via the Bilderberg Steering Committee’s influence upon all signatory governments. Today what presents itself as your council or government, or more correctly, the men and women working within the same, defraud you by pretending they represent you and operate according to the parameters of the office they hold after you gave them your vote to hold that office.[A]

    What we call government today is in fact an incorporated entity, that means that because they are corporations, [1] they can no longer represent you an Autonomous living man/woman, due to the fact the council/government has changed Jurisdiction, they have shifted from a realm of laws to a realm of commercial legislation, controlled by the UCC and for the movement of the cargo, coming under Shipping, (UPU) this they call the Legal System. However, they enthusiastically keep up an act in which they work very hard to convince you that they represent you while knowing the contrary to be fact.

    That makes them liars from the minute they join the council/government. The position is in Controversy, and any and all organisations of men/women that cover this fact are also in Controversy, including the Judiciary. The Judiciary cover the scam and if you demand full disclosure as it relates to the use of DOG-LATIN, today called American Sign Language, they run out of court. They do that because of the fact, in the paperwork they are using two languages, therefore they run out of court for one of two reasons, Concealment of the facts and or the right to Silence.[B] They are very very naughty.

    You need to understand that what you call "government" is a
    FOR-PROFIT #Corporation that has been defrauding YOU and every other American for a very long time!

    Our #Judiciary is also a part of the corrupt Corporation, and does NOT practice
    #Law... They are actually using UCC or the "Uniform Commercial Code" used for COMMERCE and SHIPPING, and unlawfully applying it to people!

    Let me rephrase... applying to "Legal Fictions" that they have brainwashed you into believing is YOU! When you go to court you are not representing YOU
    the MAN / WOMAN!

    You are representing a "Legal Fiction"
    Fairy dust, something that exists only on paper!

  • "At the first meeting of the newly constituted Warren Commission, [former CIA Director] Allen Dulles handed out copies of a book to help define the ideological parameters he proposed for the Commission's forthcoming work. American assassinations were different from European ones, he told the Commission. European assassinations were the work of conspiracies, whereas American assassins acted alone."
