"Como os buracos negros são intrinsecamente escuros, a radiação que a matéria emite a caminho da boca do buraco negro é nossa única maneira de iluminar esse ambiente escuro,"

“The paper demonstrates that the process of reioniaation completed about a billion years after the Big Bang, when the universe was 7% of its current age,” “Computer simulations show consistency with measurement of the large variations in the islands of neutral hydrogen as probed through the Lyman-alpha absorption of quasar light, and measurements of the column of free electrons inferred from scattering of the cosmic microwave background”

“What we did was take the properties of the meteor and take the velocity at the time of impact and extrapolate whether it was bound to the sun or not,”

Abraham Loeb explained
:
“Almost all of the objects that hit the Earth originate for the solar system,” “They are made of the same materials that made the solar system. Those that are interstellar originate from another source”

“Most importantly, there is a possibility that life could be transferred between stars,” “In principle, life could survive in the core of a rock. Either bacteria, or tardigrades (a microscopic, water-dwelling animal); they can survive harsh conditions in space and arrive right to us”

"In our paper we investigated whether photosynthesis can occur on planets in the habitable zone around low mass stars. This zone is defined as the range of distances from the star where the surface temperature of the planet allows for the existence of liquid water and the chemistry of life as we know it"

Abraham Loeb said
:
"Since the oxygen produced by photosynthesis is a pre-requisite for complex life such as humans on Earth, it will also be required for technological intelligence to evolve," "In turn, the emergence of the latter opens up the possibility of finding life via technological signatures such as radio signals or giant artifacts"

This zone is defined as the range of distances from the star where the surface temperature of the planet allows for the existence of liquid water and the chemistry of life as we know it. For planets in that zone, we calculated the ultraviolet (UV) flux illuminating their surface as a function of the mass of their host star. Low mass stars are cooler and produce less UV photons per amount of radiation"

"Most of the capital investment in Starshot will go to the infrastructure of the laser array (beamer), which could potentially launch hundreds of cheap, gram-scale spacecrafts per year," "This will allow us to send a fleet of probes towards Proxima that could relay the images taken back to Earth more easily"
