Fifty years ago, on Sept. 17, 1976—Constitution Day of America’s bicentennial year—NASA unveiled its first space shuttle orbiter, OV-101, to the public. NASA had originally planned to name the vehicle Constitution, but a letter-writing campaign changed the agency’s plans. Nearly 100,000 fans of the Star Trek television series wrote the White House urging that the

For brevity, we summarize the essentials of Delphy’s operation here; full details are provided in the Supplementary Information. EMATs Delphy represents trees internally as a collection of explicitly timed nodes and a reference sequence. Each non-root node points to an earlier parent, and each inner node to two later children. Every instant in the tree

In 1926, when Albert Scott Crossfield was five years old, a priest came to his home to administer the last rites. Suffering from an advanced case of pneumonia that had scarred his lungs and attacked his heart, the young Crossfield was drifting in and out of a coma when his parents summoned Father Skiperelli. They

Ancient Egyptian queen Nefertiti, thought to have ruled as Pharaoh, might be buried near Tutankhamun. Credit: Filo/Getty Tutankhamun’s tomb in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings has long puzzled archaeologists. Might hidden chambers — suspected to hold the remains of Nefertiti — lie beyond its walls? Now, researchers say they have found new evidence pointing to

Study 1 (survey fielded in 2021; YouGov CES) We fielded this extensive survey to N = 3,227 non-Hispanic white people in November 2021 as part of the CES—a widely used source of data in peer-reviewed political science research on US public opinion. The CES’s in-depth Common Content questionnaire and respondent geocodes permit documentation of the demographic and
