The Large Magellanic Cloud could be making the Milky Way hotter

The Large Magellanic Cloud could be making the Milky Way hotter

The temperature difference is not subtle. One side of the Milky Way’s outer halo runs noticeably hotter than the other, a mismatch that has puzzled astronomers since it was measured. That imbalance now appears to trace back to motion, not mystery. A Galaxy that Will Not Sit Still The idea that a galaxy might heat its own surroundings by shifting position sounds counterintuitive. Yet that is exactly what a team led by the University of Groningen argues is happening. Their work connects a recently observed temperature gap to the Milky Way’s slow drift under the pull of a nearby companion. The observation came first. In 2024, the X-ray observatory eROSITA detected that the southern half of the Milky Way’s gaseous halo is up to 12 percent warmer than the northern half. The halo itself is vast, a thin sphere of gas extending far beyond the visible disk of stars, and it sits at around 2 million kelvin. That makes it far hotter than the Sun’s surface. No obvious reason explained why one side would run …

Sometimes it seems to me that this is just a nightmare and I’m going to wake up soon.” In response, Harry replied: “I mean, you guys are saving lives every single day. I know you’re part of HALO, so that’s exactly what you signed up to do, and I know that you’re going to continue doing the work that is so desperately needed for HALO, for your families and your country.” The Duke of Sussex then asked how people could help, noting how many were “watching on, feeling completely hopeless”. © YouTubeHarry appeared on a video call with volunteers at The HALO Trust He was informed how “spreading safety messages” would …

What is the ‘halo lip’? Make-up artists explain how to do it

Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Stay ahead of the curve with our weekly guide to the latest trends, fashion, relationships and more Lipstick styles are probably the defining marker of make-up trends. ‘Foundation lips’ dominated the early 2000s, overlining was everywhere in 2016, but the latest technique gaining traction among celebrities like Dua Lipa is the ‘halo lip’ – a diffused approach that promises fullness without obvious artifice. Unlike the heavily sculpted lip looks of the past decade, the halo lip is designed to look almost accidental. With blurred edges, the centre is lighter and the overall effect is softer, as qualified make-up artist and Revolution ambassador Emily Wood puts it, “a halo lip is about softness and dimension rather than strict placement.” What exactly is a halo lip? At its core, the halo lip plays with light. Depth is concentrated around the edges and corners …
