It’s a miracle (Obama, that is)
The Hajj, the grand Pilgrimage to Mecca, has just ended after having attracted a record four million Muslims from all over the world for a week of worship in the vast Arabian desert. I attended this year for the first time and experienced one of the most remarkable and transformative events known to humanity. Believers of every race, nation and age brought together to transcend our differences and unite before God.
But there was one topic that was on everyone’s lips as we sat together under a tent in the pilgrim camp at Mina – the improbable election of Barack Hussein Obama to the Presidency of the United States. Everyone I spoke with expressed wonder at God’s will in bringing such remarkable change after eight years of George W. Bush. Most were hopeful that Obama could restore to America its prestige as the moral leader of the world, squandered so recklessly by an Administration that redefined the meaning of the word “hubris.”
There was much...

When researchers ran a computer simulation of the universe rewinding towards the big bang, they made an unexpected discovery. At first, the universe started becoming smaller and denser as the galaxies converged, but then instead of becoming infinitely dense at the big bang, the universe bounced and started expanding again. So is our universe recycled from an older cosmos?

Poor Jet Bussemaker. The statesecretary of the VWS (Dutch Organisation) told in an interview that the Netherlands spends far to less attention to the role of the Middle-eastern foreigners in the liberation of the Netherlands and Europe during the Second Worldwar. Her argument: in the struggle against the Nazi’s were not only the allied forces active, but for example aslo Moroccan forces. Their part has been ignored.
And here we go again. The Dutch right-wing party PVV (party of extreme-right Geert Wilders) has called for a debate in the Dutch parliament and has asked for a clarification of this “multicultural history falsification”. The debate next week will talk about the 19 fallen Moroccan soldiers who are buried on a war cemetery in the Zeeuwse Kapelle in a Dutch province. 19 Moroccan dead, that’s it. Their part is to be discarded says the PVV, as “ which battle in WW2 would have ended differently without these Moroccans?”.

The sweet discovery was made at the Plateau de Bure observatory in France
A simple sugar that is an ingredient of life has been found for the first time in a relatively hospitable part of the galaxy.
As molecules go, glycolaldehyde is not an impressive one, but its link to the origins of life make it significant.
It can react to form ribose, a key constituent of the nucleic acid RNA.
The study, in Astrophysical Journal Letters, is important as it shows organic molecules in a region of space where planets could form.
Glycolaldehyde was first discovered toward the galactic centre in 2000. But the extreme conditions there made it unclear if the molecule could form in the rest of the galaxy.
To find out, Maria Teresa Beltran of the University of Barcelona and colleagues trained the Plateau de Bure array of radio telescopes on a large star-forming region called G31.41+031, about 26,000 light years...
