  This Maxar 1300 spacecraft is one of the lightest and smallest ever, showing the versatility of the platform.
• “Psyche will break records for deep space travel using SEP,” said Chris Johnson, CEO for Maxar Space.

• VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq:XENE), a neurology-focused biopharmaceutical company, today announced that the company will present at TD Cowen’s 3rd Annual Novel Mechanisms in Neuropsychiatry Summit to be held on September 20, 2023.
• Company Fireside Chat Presentation Details:

• The companies are partnering to develop solutions that further enable the Polarean xenon 129 MRI platform to accelerate clinical and research use.
• “Furthermore, this partnership perfectly aligns with our objective of extending the reach of XENOVIEW™ MRI, to provide tools to physicians that treat patients suffering from chronic lung disease.”
  “VIDA and Polarean are natural partners.
• Since the technology is based on MRI, it does not expose patients to any ionizing radiation and its associated risks.
• The dose of XENOVIEW, created through the Polarean HPX hyperpolarization system, is administered in a single 10-15 second breath-hold MRI procedure.

• He has even hypothesised that the spherules are actually debris from an alien spacecraft.
• I commented at the time that I’d need firm analytical evidence to accept such interpretations.
• Loeb has now provided a very detailed set of analytical data of 57 spherules in an article submitted to a journal.
• But it has not yet been subject to the peer review that academics require before they accept research as legitimate.
• Such particles are referred to as “cosmic spherules” and normally come from asteroids within our Solar System.

Other explanations

• This is unlikely – iron meteorites from within the Solar System are the most affected by melting and this would explain the results.
• Other possibilities that Loeb considers are supernovas (infinitely hot exploding stars) and cool, luminous stars (known as “asymptotic giant branch” stars, where cool is still incredibly hot).
• A supernova results from the catastrophic implosion of a stellar source, producing bursts of neutrons to form new elements.
• The isotopic composition of those elements has been measured in many grains found in meteorites.
• But they differ from the spherules described by Loeb because they are very small – only a few microns at most.
