Quaoar Had One ‘Impossible’ Ring, Then Astronomers Found Two - The New York Times

Image
Earlier this year, astronomers announced that a tiny world beyond Neptune with a diameter about one-third that of Earth's moon possessed a Saturn-like ring that should not be there. It now turns out that there are two such "impossible" rings. "It was a big surprise," said Chrystian Luciano Pereira, a doctoral student at the National Observatory in Brazil who led the observations of the world, known as Quaoar.

Seven In Ten Business Leaders Want Robots To Make Their Decisions For Them

It's easier to make decisions when the economy is growing, as bad choices can get subsidized by the more well-targeted choices. But in a tighter economy, bad decisions are more exposed, and costly. But in this era of data analytics, there will be fewer bad decisions, right? In fact, 64% of employees — and 70% of business leaders — would prefer to have a robot make their decisions. Many see analytics as simply out of their reach. Publisher: Forbes Date: 2023-04-28 Author: Joe McKendrick Twitter: @forbes Reference: (Read more) Visit Source
