Pamfilova: Putin's Election Guardian Faces Her Toughest Task Yet

Ella Pamfilova, once a leading human rights advocate and critic of the Chechen war, is now head of Russia's Central Election Commission and a loyal instrument of Putin's regime. The dictator has tasked her with delivering the desired outcome in State Duma elections amid war and crippling Western sanctions. Commentators describe the position as a "death sentence" given the enormous pressure and high risk of failure.

Can Russia hold credible Duma elections while at war?

Mystery repeating radio signals from ASKAP J1745 traced to binary star system

Astronomers have made a major step toward explaining mysterious, repeating radio signals by identifying the source ASKAP J1745 as located within a binary star system. The rhythm of the emissions is tied to the mutual orbit of the two strongly interacting stars. The finding could shed light on the origin of other similar long-period radio sources detected by radio telescopes.

Will the discovery of ASKAP J1745's origin solve the mystery of repeating cosmic radio signals?

Giant hogweed burns through clothing — avoid it on walks

Giant hogweed (Barszcz Sosnowskiego) is an invasive plant whose sap causes severe chemical burns even through clothing after just a brief accidental contact. Exposure combined with UV light leads to blisters and long-lasting skin damage. The plant is especially dangerous in summer when it grows to its full height.

Do authorities do enough to remove giant hogweed from public land?
