The Apollo 1 fire

Jan. 27, 1967, tragedy struck on the launch pad at Cape Kennedy during a preflight test for Apollo 204 (AS-204). The mission was to be the first crewed flight of Apollo, and was scheduled to launch Feb. 21, 1967. Astronauts Virgil Grissom, Edward White and Roger Chaffee lost their lives when a fire swept through the command module, or CM.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/nxvtg27m.jpg

The exhaustive investigation of the fire and extensive reworking of the Apollo command modules postponed crewed launches until NASA officials cleared them for flight. Saturn IB schedules were suspended for nearly a year, and the launch vehicle that finally bore the designation AS-204 carried a lunar module, or LM, as the payload, instead of a CM. The missions of AS-201 and AS-202 with Apollo spacecraft aboard had been unofficially known as Apollo 1 and Apollo 2 missions. AS-203 carried only the aerodynamic nose cone.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/xqw6akha.jpg

In the spring of 1967, NASA's Associate Administrator for Manned Space Flight, Dr. George E. Mueller, announced that the mission originally scheduled for Grissom, White and Chaffee would be known as Apollo 1, and said that the first Saturn V launch, scheduled for November 1967, would be known as Apollo 4. The eventual launch of AS-204 became known as the Apollo 5 mission. No missions or flights were ever designated Apollo 2 or 3.

The second launch of a Saturn V took place on schedule in the early morning of April 4, 1968. Known as AS-502, or Apollo 6, the flight was a success, though two first-stage engines shut down prematurely, and the third-stage engine failed to reignite after reaching orbit

Preserved autopsy

In 2013, researchers examined a gruesome relic. The partial mummy consisted of shoulders, a neck, and a head. The man's death expression was disturbing, almost like a permanent scream.Scientists thought it was preserved during the 1400s or 1500s, but analysis placed it between AD 1200 and AD 1280. This made it Europe's oldest preserved human autopsy. It also placed the body right in the middle of what many considered Europe's most backward time for science.However, the mummy was prepared by experienced hands and surprisingly advanced techniques. The ancient doctor mixed lime, beeswax, and red cinnabar mercury. The potion was injected into the veins to preserve the body and add a touch of color to the circulatory system. The back of the skull and brain were also skillfully removed This went against the prevailing view that human dissection in the Middle Ages was a “cut up and throw away” affair. This man was possibly even preserved for future use in medical education

Yellow river

There's a time-honored insult that often arises during heated arguments between people in towns that line the Yellow River: "If you can't bear the situation, jump into the river and end your life," as the barbed phrase goes.

While the words are often uttered as an angry curse, many people have literally heeded the advice. At least 10,000 bodies have been recovered along an 80-kilometer stretch of the Yellow River's Lanzhou section in Northwest China's Gansu Province since the 1960s. Around 300 bodies are pulled from the river annually, according to local authorities and corpse collectors who work on the river.

Some of the bodies are returned to relatives, while others are retrieved and cremated by the local civil affairs department. However, many are left flowing along the Yellow River.

Police, body collectors and officials from the civil affairs and environmental departments are often at loggerheads with how to deal with the bodies and the pollution and contamination problems they pose to the river's ecosystem.

Soyuz 11

The Soviet Union established the first experimental space station in Earth orbit in June 1971, when Soyuz 11 cosmonauts Georgi T. Dobrovolski, Vladislav N. Volkov, and Viktor I. Patsayev boarded Salyut and spent more than three weeks aboard the laboratory conducting a variety of experiments. Tragedy struck near the end of their record-setting mission when, shortly before reentry into the Earth's atmosphere, the cosmonauts died as a result of the sudden depressurization of their spacecraft. They were not wearing pressure suits. The Soviet government honored the cosmonauts with a state funeral, with NASA astronaut Thomas P. Stafford representing the President of the United States. As a result of the accident, the Soviets temporarily halted human spaceflights while engineers redesigned the Soyuz spacecraft. Since then, all cosmonauts have worn spacesuits during Soyuz launches and landings.

Creatonotos gangis

Perhaps most notably, the truly astonishing Creatonotos gangis remains one of the most visually distinctive Lepidoptera known to man. Unfortunately for those trying to pronounce it, the remarkable insect also has no generally accepted common name.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/o6u3xlu.jpg

The first official scientific recognition of the creature as a separate and distinct species took place in the late 18th century. That formal acknowledgement, like many others, occurred as a direct result of the renowned Swedish zoologist Carl Linnaeus.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/zdesef15.jpg

While it may be unknown to many, the incredible moth actually inhabits a moderately extensive range. Due to this unfortunate fact, along with an apparently sizeable and relatively stable population base, the IUCN currently has no listing for the insect.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/0yonvo.jpg

Although the adults remain completely harmless, the same situation does not hold true for the caterpillar form, however. In point of fact, this life stage of the surprising invertebrate very frequently causes severe damage to local pomegranate crops.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/u0z3ymri.jpg

Sadly, however, its fortunate Red List of Threatened Species status could potentially change in the very near future. This lamentable fact occurs for the same reason it does for numerous other species.

Sunset on Mars

Martian atmosphere is dominated by large-sized dust particles. These particles cause something called ‘Mie Scattering,' which filters out the red light from the sun's rays and only lets the blue reach our eyes.

But then why do sunsets on earth look red? Because the size of particles is very small in Earth's atmosphere, as compared to the wavelength of light. The tiny particles present in Earth's atmosphere scatter the blue wavelengths through a process called ‘Rayleigh Scattering', so by the time the light reaches our eyes, only the red remains.

Simple put, think of the atmosphere as a filter for sunlight. Earth's atmosphere is good at filtering out blue light and letting in red light, whereas the Martian atmosphere is better at filtering out red light and letting in the blue.

Chris Farley

Christopher Crosby Farley (February 15, 1964 – December 18, 1997) was an American comedian and actor. He was known for his loud, energetic comedic style, and was a member of Chicago's Second City Theatre and later a cast member of the NBC sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live for five seasons from 1990 to 1995. He went on to pursue a film career.

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/jhdbpb74.jpg

On December 18, 1997 at 2:00 p.m. EST, Farley was found dead by his younger brother John in his apartment in the John Hancock Center in Chicago. He was 33 years old. An autopsy revealed that Farley had died of an overdose of a combination of cocaine and morphine, commonly known as a "speedball". Advanced atherosclerosis was cited as a "significant contributing factor.

Lunar lava tube

A study published in Geophysical Research Letters confirms the existence of a large open lava tube in the Marius Hills region of the moon, which could be used to protect astronauts from hazardous conditions on the surface.

No one has ever been on the moon longer than three days, largely because space suits alone can't shield astronauts from its elements: extreme temperature variation, radiation, and meteorite impacts. Unlike Earth, the moon has no atmosphere or magnetic field to protects its inhabitants.

The safest place to seek shelter is the inside of an intact lava tube, according to the study.

Lava tubes are naturally occurring channels formed when a lava flow develops a hard crust, which thickens and forms a roof above the still-flowing lava stream. Once the lava stops flowing, the tunnel sometimes drains, forming a hollow void.

“It's important to know where and how big lunar lava tubes are if we're ever going to construct a lunar base,” said Junichi Haruyama, a senior researcher at JAXA, Japan's space agency. “But knowing these things is also important for basic science. We might get new types of rock samples, heat flow data and lunar quake observation data.”

JAXA analyzed radar data from the SELENE spacecraft to detect underlying lava tubes. Near the Marius Hills Skylight, an entrance to the tube, they found a distinctive echo pattern: a decrease in echo power followed by a large second echo peak, which they believe is evidence of a tube. The two echoes correspond to radar reflections from the moon's surface and the floor and ceiling of the open tube. The team found similar echo patterns at several locations around the hole, indicating there may be more than one.

On the evening of August 4, 1962, American actress Marilyn Monroe died at age 36 of a barbiturate overdose inside her home at 12305 Fifth Helena Drive in Brentwood, Los Angeles, California. Her body was discovered before dawn the following morning, on August 5. Monroe had been one of the most popular Hollywood stars during the 1950s and early 1960s, and was a top-billed actress for the preceding decade. Her films had grossed $200 million by the time of her death.

Slavemaster Victim

John Edward Robinson AKA "The Slavemaster is a huge piece of shit, and an American serial killer who was convicted in 2003 of the murders of three women during a fifteen-year period. He subsequently admitted responsibility for five additional murders during that time. Because he made contact with most of his post-1993 victims via on-line chat rooms, he is sometimes referred to as "the Internet's first serial killer".

https://pomf2.lain.la/f/ebio2kcf.png

Robinson convinced a lonely licensed practical nurse by day and submissive slave by night named Suzette Trouten (the victim in the video) to move from Michigan to Kansas so they could travel the world together. Trouten's mother received several typed letters, purportedly mailed while the couple was abroad, although the envelopes were stamped with Kansas City postmarks, and the letters were, her mother said, uncharacteristically mistake-free. Later, Robinson told Trouten's mother she had run off with an acquaintance after stealing money from him, but in reality he murdered her and stuff her body into a drum.

Turtle Mouth

The leatherback sea turtle is the largest turtle in the world. They are the only species of sea turtle that lack scales and a hard shell. They are named for their tough rubbery skin and have existed in their current form since the age of the dinosaurs. Leatherbacks are highly migratory, some swimming over 10,000 miles a year between nesting and foraging grounds. They are also accomplished divers with the deepest recorded dive reaching nearly 4,000 feet, that's deeper than most marine mammals.

Anorexia

Anorexia is an eating disorder that causes people to weigh less than is considered healthy for their age and height, usually by excessive weight loss.

People with this disorder may have an intense fear of weight gain, even when they are underweight. They may diet or exercise too much or use other ways to lose weight.

Causes

The exact causes of anorexia are not known. Many factors may be involved. Genes and hormones may play a role. Social attitudes that promote very thin body types may also be involved.

Risk factors for anorexia include:

Being more worried about, or paying more attention to, weight and body shape

Having an anxiety disorder as a child

Having a negative self-image

Having eating problems during infancy or early childhood

Having certain social or cultural ideas about health and beauty

Trying to be perfect or overly focused on rules

Anorexia often begins during the pre-teen or teen years or young adulthood. It is more common in females, but may also be seen in males.

Lake Nyos disaster

On August 21, 1986, a cloud of magmatic carbon dioxide gas arose from the bed of Lake Nyos, a freshwater lake located in a volcanic caldera in the populous Northwest Region of the East African nation of Cameroon. The rare event, called a limnic eruption, was announced by a small explosion that residents of a market town near the lake described as being like distant thunder, but it was otherwise unannounced by anything else apart from a foul odour.

The 1.6 million ton cloud of magmatic gas was deadly, and a count of the fatalities indicated that 1,746 people, most from villages by the lake, had been asphyxiated by it, along with some 3,000 cattle and innumerable birds, insects, and other animals. The bodies of the dead showed no signs of trauma or struggle; these people had simply died where they were. A research team from France and the United States arrived at the sceneand noted that the lake was an unusual dark-brown colour, and that a surrounding raffia forest and several other expanses of vegetation had been flattened by both the explosion and the tsunami-like water wave that ensued. That the lake was responsible for the deaths was immediately clear to the scientists, but the mechanism involved was not.

EFFORTPOST What happens to pedophiles and sex offenders in prison || INFOPOST

Video above is an alleged pedophile being burned in a Brazil prison :marseycupid: :marseyupmarsey:

I unfortunately do not have much context for the event. The incident likely occurred because in many Brazil prisons, there is 1 guard per 30 prisoners, although the recommended prisoner to guard ratio is 1:5.

With Brazilian prisons, there are even inmates who are considered “keyholders” who are given keys and have access to every cell. They often are drug dealers, selling cell space, and it even leads to instances of rape and violence.

Brazil has had an extensive history of unusual and extremely unprofessional enforcement in their prisons, leading to riots, escapes, murder, going so far as beheading. It is a saying that "going to a Brazil prison is a death sentence."

What happens to pedophiles and sex offenders in prison? Do they always get caught?

It would be safe to assume that pedophiles and child abusers do not have a “fun time” in jail. If not in complete isolation, protective custody, or the reason for their incarceration is not confidential… Many are assaulted, raped and killed before their sentence is complete.

HOWEVER is very common for sexual abuse to remain unreported, and even for incidents that are reported, are left unsolved. Those convicted of their crimes do not always get the most harsh sentencing; although it is absolutely needed and deserved.

Christopher Betler, a 20 year old New York man, plead guilty to the rape and molestation of 4 girls as young as 15. The crime occurred when he was 17. The judge originally only gave him only 2 years of probation; Betler violated his probation by accessing pornagraphy on his computer instead got 8 years of probation, no jail time.

She was arrested on $100,000 bond and released last month, almost a year later. She will now remain free if she agrees to make no contact with children and stay away from the daycare she worked at.

This post is NOT meant for hate or debate about transgender individuals, I used this case an example to emphasize how much sex offenders can truly get away with.

https://www.blackburncenter.org/post/2016/09/14/why-are-judges-giving-light-sentences-to-rapists


Why do they get away with it? What is rape culture?

There has been a rise in instances where United States judges give extremely lenient, and wildly inappropriate sentences to those who commit sexual crimes. The pattern of this happening is speculated to be because of the uprising of "rape culture". A culture, trend, and even mindset that normalizes sexual abuse, claims it is inevitable and blames their victims. Victim blaming is often claimed to be a psychological phenomenon, when not wanting to believe someone you know and care about did something bad to another individual.

https://i.watchpeopledie.tv/images/170832840167738.webp

If you are a victim of sexual abuse, yes, even if you are a male, I hope you know it is NOT your fault and you did not do anything to deserve it. Please know that you are not alone.


Consent and sexual education

The lines of consent are askew and blurred, there is NO legal definition of consent, and it even varies state to state. There are even different legal definitions of rape, sexual assault, and sexual abuse in each state as well. MANY schools in the United States do not discuss sexual education, consent, and boundaries. In a study conducted by the CDC, they found 8 in 10 teenagers didn't get sex education until after they'd already had sex.

But in a survey of more than 3,000 high school students and young adults nationwide, the overwhelming majority reported they had never been taught how to avoid sexually harassing others or to cope with being groped, catcalled, or bullied in sexual ways. If children and teens are not taught how to respect the boundaries of their peers, or taught anything about how healthy sexual interaction is supposed to be, how will they ever grasp the concept of consent and safe sexual interaction as an adult?

Believe what you want about sexual education but just know, consent is not only a sex skill, but also a life skill.


The brutality of prisons, and how they treat pedophiles and sex offenders

Many prisoners take it amongst themselves in a form of street justice, wanting to gain respect from their peers, and possibly getting their anger out about their incarceration on someone who deserves it.

Many prisoners are parents, many have been abused themselves, and do not tolerate that kind of person in their environment. Prisoners torment pedophiles and child abusers by defecating and urinating in their food and cells. Taking their belongings and food, assaulting, torturing them and it is even common for their throats to get slit as a tradition in certain states.

Charles Frederick Albright was born in Amarillo, Texas in 1933 and adopted when he was just weeks old by Fred and Delle Albright. The couple lived in a middle-class suburb; Fred was a grocer and Delle was a schoolteacher. According to an in-depth Texas Monthly feature, Delle was both a strict and smothering mother who sometimes dressed her son in girl's clothing, tied him to his bed as punishment, and insisted on chauffeuring him when he began dating in high school.

When Charles was 11 years old, his mother enrolled him in a taxidermy course after she caught him killing small animals. He practiced the crafts of dissecting, skinning and stuffing on dead birds, but according to Texas Monthly, rather than spring for expensive fake eyes, his mother insisted that he use buttons. Even though Albright performed well in school, he began his foray into the criminal as a teenager. Around age 17, he spent months in prison for theft and receiving stolen goods, according to a timeline by Radford University.

After his stint in jail, Albright attended Arkansas State Teacher's College, where he studied anatomy with the intention of becoming a surgeon. Texas Monthly writer Skip Hollandsworth wrote of a troubling prank Albright pulled in college: he cut out the eyes of their ex-girlfriend from photographs and pasted them around campus. Albright, though charming and seemingly popular, was kicked out of the school after being caught in possession of stolen goods. He later forged documents saying he had earned his degrees.

Throughout his adult life, Charles Albright would alternate between the straight life and a life of crime. He married and had a daughter, creating the image of an everyday suburban dad, but also racked up arrests for theft and forging documents and checks. In 1985, he pleaded guilty to sexually molesting the preteen daughter of a family he had met through his church, for which he only received probation.

But soon his crimes would add up to a much more sinister picture.

police found the body of 33-year old sex worker Mary Lou Pratt dumped in a field and naked to the waist. She had been beaten and shot in the back of the head. While performing her autopsy, medical examiners discovered her eyes had been carefully removed, reported the New York Daily News. As if a surgeon or someone with medical training had done it. Eyes are very delicate.

Almost two months later to the day, on the morning of February 10, 1991, the body of 27-year-old sex worker Susan Beth Peterson was discovered on the same road as Pratt. Like the previous victim, she was found nearly nude and died with a shot to the head. Her eyes had been meticulously removed, establishing a pattern. While police never released details of the murders, news spread about the killer, who was dubbed “The Dallas Ripper” and “The Dallas Slasher” by the press.

The killer's third victim was found on March 19, 1991, her naked body propped up against a tree on a residential street, across from a grade school. Shirley Williams, 45, had been shot in the head. The broken blade of an X-ACTO knife was found embedded in the skin around her right eye: a sloppier removal than before.

Police began interviewing sex workers in downtown Dallas about any suspicious incidents or violent customers they may have encountered in the months around the murders. Brenda Smith told police she had recently escaped a violent John after spraying him with mace, according to the New York Daily News.

Veronica Rodriguez claimed she had been raped and nearly killed by a white man in South Dallas, near the Mary Pratt crime scene, before fleeing to the house of a man later identified as Axton Schindler. Schindler rented a house from the deceased Fred Albright — which is how Charles Albright was eventually identified. A deputy recalled hearing Albright's name on a tip line, from someone who said her friend, victim Mary Pratt, had briefly dated a man who was obsessed with eyes and had a large collection of X-ACTO blades. (Both women later identified their attacker as Charles Albright, though Rodriguez later refused to testify against him.)

Police arrested Albright on March 22, 1991. He made his living as a carpenter and lived with his girlfriend, but was also a known customer to many sex workers in the Dallas area. During a search of his home, police found a stash of X-ACTO knives, a copy of Gray's Anatomy, and at least a dozen books on true-crime and serial killers, according to Texas Monthly. Hair fibers found in his truck also connected him to all three murders. The murder weapons and the missing eyeballs were never located.

Albright's trial began in late November 1991, though it mostly relied on circumstantial evidence. Prosecutors were ultimately forced to dismiss charges against Albright for the Pratt and Peterson murders. However, he was found guilty of the murder of Shirley Williams and sentenced to

Charles Albright is now dead. He died of natural causes at the age of 87 on August 10, 2020.
