Second US aircraft carrier arrives to Middle East: CENTCOM

> A second #US #aircraftcarrier has arrived in the Middle East, the United States military said on Thursday as it continued its campaign against #Yemen’s #Houthis.

> The US Central Command (#CENTCOM) posted a video of #F35C fighter #jets being equipped with various #bombs before taking off the flight deck. english.alarabiya.net/News/mid

Continued thread

US #warships & #jets launched attacks across #Yemen, targeting radars, air defense sites & drone launch points, a defense ofcl said. The operation is the beginning of a campaign targeting #Houthi military capabilities following attacks against merchant ships & US forces in the region.

“The Houthi attack on American vessels will not be tolerated,” #Trump posted on social media. “We will use overwhelming lethal force until we have achieved our objective.”

Supersonic #jets emitted by active galactic nuclei can set the surrounding plasma in motion. Here is a visualisation of the velocity field of the simulated intracluster medium (velocity component parallel to the line of sight) evolving under the activity of a central active galactic nucleus, in a recent simulation by Stefano Sotira, PhD student working with the me at the University of Bologna (full paper here: arxiv.org/pdf/2410.07314)

Using #Military #Jets for #Deportations Is an Ugly, Wasteful Spectacle. The #intimidation is the point. #trump #immigrants #maga These jets routinely fly over the area where I live, and their size and the sound they make descending for a landing is at the very least, intimidating. thebulwark.com/p/military-jets #politics #maga #force

Cavitation Near Soft Surfaces

Collapsing cavitation bubbles are sometimes used to break up kidney stones, and they may find other uses in medicine as well. Here, researchers investigate the collapse of laser-triggered cavitation bubbles near tissue-mimicking hydrogel. The bubbles take on a very different form than they do near solid surfaces. Near hydrogel, the bubbles become mushroom-shaped. During their collapse, they release a rainy microjet that moves at nearly 2,000 meters per second! Even at 5 million frames per second, the jet is practically a blink-and-you-miss-it phenomenon. (Image and video credit: D. Preso et al.)
