Scientists Are Stunned as a Piece of the Sun Breaks Off
Scientists Are Stunned , as a Piece of the Sun Breaks Off.
'New York Post' reports that scientists
were recently baffled after watching
material break off of the Sun's surface.
.
The remarkable phenomenon, which created a tornado-like
swirl around the Sun's northern pole, was captured
by NASA on the James Webb Space Telescope.
Material from a northern prominence
just broke away from the main filament
& is now circulating in a massive polar
vortex around the north pole of our Star, Dr. Tamitha Skov, space weather forecaster, via Twitter.

'New York Post' reports that a prominence
is a large, bright feature that extends
out from the surface of the Sun.
.
According to Scott McIntosh, the deputy director at
the National Center for Atmospheric Research,
researchers do not know the cause of the unique event.
Once every solar cycle, it forms
at the 55-degree latitude and it
starts to march up to the solar poles.
It’s very curious.
There is a big
‘why’ question around it.
, Scott McIntosh, deputy director at the National Center
for Atmospheric Research, via 'New York Post'.
Why does it only move toward the pole
one time and then disappear and then come
back, magically, three or four years later
in exactly the same region?, Scott McIntosh, deputy director at the National Center
for Atmospheric Research, via 'New York Post'.
'New York Post' reports that some
experts suggest it has something
to do with the Sun's magnetic field.
Solar projections can disrupt
GPS systems, power grids
and even radio signals.
According to Space.com, the Sun has already shot multiple
"powerful" flares at the Earth this month as it approaches
peak activity for its current 11-year cycle in 2025
Disney to Ban Visitors , Who Lie About Disabilities.
The Walt Disney Company says that there has
been an uptick in fraudulent disability claims at
its parks from people attempting to gain Disability Access Services (DAS), 'New York Post' reports. .
On April 15, the company said that anyone found to have lied about a disability to obtain these services will be banned from Disney parks permanently. .
If it is determined that any of the
statements a Guest made in the
process of obtaining DAS are not true,
the Guest will be permanently barred
from entering the Walt Disney World
Resort and the Disneyland Resort, The Walt Disney Company, via statement.
Any previously purchased Annual
Passes, Magic Key passes, tickets and
other park products and services...
will be forfeited and not refunded, The Walt Disney Company, via statement.
DAS allows people with disabilities
to skip waiting in lines.
The company's website previously indicated
that the service was for “guests who have
difficulty tolerating extended waits in a
conventional queue environment due to a disability.”.
The website has since been updated to read, , “DAS is intended to accommodate a small
percentage of Guests who, due to a developmental disability like autism or similar, are unable to wait in a conventional queue for an extended period or time.”.
At Walt Disney World, “in-person registration will no longer be available at theme park Guest Relations locations starting May 20, 2024,” Disney said.
Instead, DAS registrations will
take place via virtual video chat. .
However, at Disneyland, guests can
apply for DAS via either virtual chat or an
"accessibility services" window beginning June 18. .
Anyone who currently has DAS will be required to re-apply, 'New York Post' reports.

Stomach Sleeping , May Be Wreaking , Havoc on Your Health.
'New York Post' reports that sleeping
on your stomach may come with
a number of potential health issues.
Experts say the biggest complaint
from people who sleep on their
front is having lower back pain.
If you already have
neck and back problems,
sleeping in this position
is almost guaranteed
to make them worse, Dr. Tony Nalda, Scoliosis Reduction Center, via New York Post.
According to Dr. Tony Nalda from the Scoliosis
Reduction Center, stomach sleeping can also make
breathing difficult as it compresses the diaphragm.
The sleeping position also puts
stress on the heart, which can make it
more difficult for blood to circulate.
Over time, this increases the
risk of cardio issues, especially
if you already have problems.
If you struggle to breathe deeply,
it can lead to higher blood pressure, Dr. Tony Nalda, Scoliosis Reduction Center, via New York Post.

Sleeping with a twisted neck, like in the front
sleeping position, can also result in migraines,
pinched nerves and even neurological issues.
According to the Sleep Foundation, stomach
sleeping can also lead to more wrinkles because of
how the position smushes your face against the pillow.
The experts say that changing sleeping
positions can be an easy fix that could improve
both your quality of sleep and your health.
Sleeping on your back or
your side offers significantly
more health benefits and less
discomfort than sleeping
on your stomach, Sleep Foundation, via New York Post.
Experts say that side sleeping can help
people who suffer from sleep apnea,
as the position helps keep the airway open.
Meanwhile, sleeping on your back
can help people with lower back pain,
as it helps with spine alignment
