Earh is 50 kiloparsecs from the Large Magellic Cloud, 778 kiloParsecs from the Andromeda Galaxy. And 2 Megaparsecs from this newly discovered galaxy. Apparently. KKs is an isolated spheroidal galaxy-- not a satellite of the Milky way, Andromeda or even Triangulum, nor is it clustered with other dwarf galaxies in the local group. The paper says
Since 2008, only three galaxies had been newly discovered in a spherical shell between radii 1 and 3Mpc around the Local Group. Two of them are dIrrs, UGC 4879 (Kopylov et al. 2008) and Leo P (Giovanelli et al. 2013), and the third one, KK 258 (Karachentsev et al. 2014), belongs to the transition type dTr with minimal but detectable gas and young stars. Here we report the discovery in this volume of a dwarf spheroidal system KKs 3 ([KK2000] 03 = SGC 0224.3–7345 in the nomencla- ture of the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database) at a distance of D = 2.12 ± 0.07 Mpc and well removed from any other known galaxy.
So the interesting feature isn't that it's close. It's that it's distant from any galaxy.
50 Megapixels in a phone is absurd. Even the most absurdly expensive glass has trouble keeping up with Nikon's full frame D800-- and that's only 36 Megapixels. It's more understandable in a medium format camera-- but those are significantly larger than phones, and far more expensive.
What really would be useful in a phone is decent low light performance-- noise free images at ISO 12,800 and beyond (as well as the focusing systems necessitated by this lack of light.)
Don't tow the "Climate Change" line, don't get funded
Exactly! Without scientists to move it, the "climate change" line, or for that matter, any line marking the boundaries of current human knowledge, it stays stagnant and fixed. Towing the lines helps our society prosper and grow...
And to think that George Orwell thought it a Dying Metaphor!
Looks like a Canadian patent, owned by the " The Government Of The United States Of America As Represented By The Sec Retary, Department Of Health & Human Services, Center For Disease Control".
It's the wrong strain, though. Also I'm not sure why the US government would own a Canadian patent.
For a portable TV otherwise known as iPad a touchscreen is about the same as a dial on the side.
Funny, that. I rarely use my ipad for video. Sometimes I stream videos to my AppleTV using my ipad, but most of what I do on my ipad is web consumption--just the standard mix of text and graphics, mind you not web video. aside from that, there's kindle, and reading pdfs. But of course, I may well be an outlier.
A large screen ipad might be good for drawing, provided that the stylus can be accurate enough-- drawing on my ipad feels like I'm in kindergarten, fingerpainting. Then again, I'm not the artistic type.
The Chinese would like to be able to invade Taiwan, but the presence of a Carrier Battle Group in the region has a deterrring effect. An Antiship ballistic misdle capability would deter the carrier from doing much interference.

Maybe you should start deleting programs and files instead of merely killing off processes-- odds are decent that you have enough memory (i.e RAM), it's the system partition that's under contention.
It's a sliding scale based on the crew size, as well as whatever extra work is required from the forest service to facilitate your activities. So yeah, if you have 60 people working as cast and crew, and a few rangers need to put in 50 hours of work managing your logistics, and it's a multi day shoot, it's going to cost more than if 2 or three guys take pictures for a couple of hours.
Here's the fee schedule for commercial photography Essentially, if you have more than 50 people on site (and therefore require the most expensive permits), a $1500 permit fee will be a very small portion of your costs. I'm guessing that $5 million in liability insurance will prove costlier, but, of course, that's only needed if you a.) rent a helicopter or use one you already own b) pay for aviation fuel c) pay the pilot

But, IMO, it is preferable to use the same units when possible.
That can get cumbersome:
"Proxima Centauri lies about 1.1 parsecs from our sun, but the observable universe has a radius of 14,000,000,000 parsecs".

The last link is very interesting. Thanks.

my fault. I was extrapolating from the "Whitney Zone"- where permits are most definitely required for entry.
