Planetologists are showing great interest in Jupiter, because it is difficult to overestimate its role in the history of the solar system, as well as in its present and future. The Juno spacecraft, which reached the giant planet in 2016 and is currently on a research program in orbit around Jupiter, is set to help scientists solve many of its mysteries.

In the field of organization theory, the idea of "necessary variety" is used as a key element in the theoretical framework. In relation to the business world as a whole, Ashby's Cybernetic Law states that a company's degree of relevance must match its degree of internal complexity in order to survive in a competitive market.

It follows from the very concept of atmospheric pressure that air must have weight, otherwise it could not exert pressure. But we do not notice this, it seems to us that the air is weightless. Before talking about atmospheric pressure, you need to prove that air has weight, you need to somehow weigh it. We will consider the weight of air and atmospheric pressure in detail in the article, studying them with the help of experiments. Last modified: 2024-01-02 17:01

Many books have been written on how to properly achieve goals, what tests a person must go through in order to achieve exactly the specified result, no more, no less. However, the greatest achievements were not made according to the instructions. People, driven by intuition and faith in themselves and their work, began to go into the unknown, probing the difficult path with attempts, drawing conclusions from them and starting all over again, at random.

The Meissner effect is the process of absolute displacement of the magnetic field from the entire volume of the conductor. This usually occurs during the transition of the conductor to the superconducting state. The Meissner effect is divided into full and partial, depending on the quality of the superconductors. The full Meissner effect is observed when the magnetic field is completely displaced. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12
Sevastopol is called the white city for a reason. It is almost entirely built of Inkerman stone. Rome and Alexandria also used this stone for building. Many churches of the Golden Ring of Russia were built from snow-white Crimean limestone. During Soviet times, white limestone was used for the construction of the Lenin Library, cladding of buildings of important state systems. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12
The bond in protein peptides is shorter than other compounds of peptide groups, as it has a partial double bond characteristic. Considering what a peptide bond is, we can conclude that its mobility is low. The electronic construction of the peptide bond sets the solid planar structure of the group of peptides. The planes of such groups are located at an angle to each other. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12
In ancient times, concepts such as the age of the entire universe and the age of the Earth had strong differences.

If the being whose meaning Heidegger is looking for seems so elusive, it is because it is not an essence. It's not something; it is not a creature. "Being is essentially different from being, from beings." This is the answer to the question: "What is Heidegger's metaphysics", which describes existence as the will of a non-existent being.

The Church-Turing thesis refers to the concept of an efficient, systematic, or mechanical method in logic, mathematics, and computer science. It is formulated as a description of the intuitive concept of computability and, in relation to general recursive functions, is more often called Church's thesis. It also refers to the theory of computer-computable functions. The thesis appeared in the 1930s, when computers themselves did not yet exist. Last modified: 2023-12-17 05:12
