Elon Musk found himself in the crosshairs of controversy once again as he clashed with Australian authorities over content censorship on his platform, X. The dispute stemmed from a court order instructing X to remove video posts depicting a violent incident involving an Assyrian bishop. Musk, known for his outspoken nature, accused Australian leaders of attempting to stifle internet freedom, drawing condemnation from lawmakers.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has deferred his visit to India to meet with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, attributing the delay to pressing commitments at Tesla. Musk expressed his intention to reschedule the visit for a later time this year. "Unfortunately, very heavy Tesla obligations require that the visit to India be delayed, but I do very much look forward to visiting later this year," Musk posted on his X account.

Astronomers Say , Neutron Jet Emissions , Travel at Relativistic Speeds.
Gizmodo reports that new research suggests that
the dense remains of massive stars propel jets of gas and
dust at speeds of hundreds of millions of miles per hour.
Neutron stars are the stellar remains of
some of the densest objects in the universe. .
According to new research, neutron star jets
can travel up to 70,836 miles per hour,
just over one-third the speed of light. .
Relativistic effects like time dilation and length
contraction are believed to occur at speeds
exceeding just one-tenth the speed of light. .
James Miller Jones, , an astrophysicist at Curtin University in
Australia and co-author of the research, .
notes that neutron stars are, "so dense that they can pull material off
the surface of a nearby companion star.".
That gas spirals down onto the surface
of that neutron star where it gets very,
very hot and dense. Once enough of it
builds up nuclear fusion reactions
start to happen on the surface, James Miller Jones, astrophysicist at Curtin University
in Australia and co-author, via 'Gizmodo'.
Using the Australia Telescope Compact Array and the
International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory, researchers found that thermonuclear explosions on
distant stars kickstart these high-speed jet emissions. .
When these explosions occurred, they generated
high-speed jets and bright X-rays which made
it possible for researchers to measure speeds. .
The findings suggest that the staggering
speed of these emissions is close to escape
speed, or the needed velocity for material to
escape the neutron star's gravitational speed. .
Gizmodo reports that the team's results will inform
future models of jet formation and could help reveal
some of the most extreme physics in the universe.

AT&T Confirms Data Breach , Affected 73 Million Customers.
73 million current and former
AT&T customers have had their sensitive
data compromised in a hack that some outlets
say dates back to 2021, Gizmodo reports.
The data, which includes social security numbers, email addresses, birthdates, phone numbers and AT&T account information, .
was located two weeks ago in a data
set released on the dark web.
It's not clear if it was AT&T's systems that were breached or if the information was stolen from one of the company's vendors.
Currently, AT&T does not have evidence
of unauthorized access to its systems
resulting in exfiltration of the data set, AT&T, via statement.
The company is communicating
proactively with those impacted and
will be offering credit monitoring at
our expense where applicable, AT&T, via statement.
As a precaution, AT&T has reset the
passcodes of its current customers. .
The company will be reaching out to customers whose information has been compromised. .
AT&T advises those who are worried about their accounts to monitor activity and credit reports.

The Reason Why, Insects Are Attracted , to Artificial Light.
Gizmodo reports that
researchers believe they finally know
why insects seem to be drawn to lights.
New data suggests that bugs
are not attracted to the light,
as is commonly believed.
Rather, researchers now believe that
based on insects' use of light sources to
orient flight, artificial lights disorient bugs.
The team's findings were published
in the journal 'Nature Communications.'.
This has been a prehistorical
question. In the earliest writings,
people were noticing this around fire. , Jamie Theobald, Biologist at Florida International
University and co-author of the study, via Gizmodo.
It turns out all our
speculations about why it
happens have been wrong, Jamie Theobald, Biologist at Florida International
University and co-author of the study, via Gizmodo.
Researchers note that insects'
"seemingly erratic" flying patterns
are really their failed attempts
to understand the artificial light. .
Rather than steering toward the light, bugs were
seen turning their dorsum, or their backs,
toward the light, attempting to steer by it.
Under natural sky light, tilting
the dorsum towards the brightest
visual hemisphere helps maintain
proper flight attitude and control, Study authors, via Gizmodo.
Near artificial sources,
however, this highly conserved
dorsal-light-response can produce
continuous steering around
the light and trap an insect, Study authors, via Gizmodo

SpaceX's Third Test of Its , Starship Succeeds Ahead, of Crewed Lunar Mission.
'The Independent' reports that SpaceX's third test of its
Starship has ended successfully, with the spacecraft
falling to Earth somewhere in the Indian ocean. .
The successful test follows two
failed tests which lasted only a few
moments before ultimately exploding.
The third test saw the Starship successfully launch,
separate from its booster, arrive in space, open its
payload door and then fly halfway around the Earth.
This means that the test successfully
accomplished all of the major tests
SpaceX had laid out prior to launch.
Starship is the largest and most
powerful rocket ever built, with
a towering height of 397 feet. .
CEO Elon Musk said prior to launch that the
company had made thousands of upgrades and
fixes to improve the chances of a successful test.

The test flight outperformed previous
tests, reaching an altitude of 100
miles and nearing orbital speed.
'The Independent' reports that NASA is heavily invested in
the success of Starship, as the spacecraft plays an integral
role in the agency's plan to return astronauts to the moon.
The highly anticipated missions will
mark the first crewed missions to the
moon since last century's Apollo program.
