Sebastian-Roche Nicolas de Chamfort. The most famous aphorisms

Marriage is too perfect a state for an imperfect person.
Education should be based on two foundations - morality and prudence: the first supports virtue, the second protects from other people's vices.
Here is one of the best arguments against marriage: only one woman can completely fool a man - his own wife.
Whenever I see women, and even men, blindly attracted to someone, I stop believing in their ability to feel deeply. This rule has never failed me.
Listening to someone else's secret is like accepting a thing as a pawn.
Worthless is the feeling that has a price.
Money is the greatest problem for small personalities, but utterly miserable for great ones.
There are people who need to excel at all costs: in the theater, on the throne, on the scaffold, they will always be fine, if only they will attract attention to themselves.
A woman who imposes herself on men soon incurs their complete contempt.
Women give to friendship only what they borrow from love.
Both marriage and celibacy have their drawbacks: of these two conditions, the one that can still be corrected is preferable.
Changes in fashion are a tax on the ingenuity of the poor on the vanity of the rich.
Every day I add to the list of things that I refuse to discuss. The wiser the person, the longer this list.
When a woman chooses a lover, it is not so important for her whether she likes him, or whether other women like him.
Any passion always exaggerates everything, otherwise it would not be passion.
Love is the only feeling in which everything is true and everything is false.
Love is like a sticky disease: the more you are afraid of it, the sooner you catch it.
Love is nothing more than an exchange of fantasies.
People for the most part do not so much want to experience love as to inspire it.
For the role of a lover, only one is suitable who is not ashamed to show people; anyone will do as a husband.
There are three kinds of friends in the world: friends who love you, friends who don't care about you, and friends who hate you.
The most ineptly spent are those days in which we never laughed.
The worst of unequal marriages is the unequal marriage of two hearts.
Outfit is a preface to a woman, and sometimes the entire book.
Someone to whom the lady yielded before he was able to take advantage of this asked her: "Could you, madam, keep virtue for another quarter of an hour?"
Society is made up of two great classes: those who have more dinners than their appetites, and those who have more appetites than their dinners.
The repetition of the same words can bore our ears, mind, but not the heart.
The position of a married person is unbearable because the husband, if he is a thousand times smart, turns out to be superfluous everywhere, even in his own house.
Nature doesn't tell me "Don't be poor" and certainly doesn't say "Be rich". But she just screams: "Always be independent!"
An ardent and tender friendship can be hurt even with a rose petal.
Too high qualities make a person less fit for society. They go to the market not with large bars of gold, but with silver and copper.
Happiness is like a watch: the simpler the mechanism, the less often it deteriorates.
First love, then marriage: first flame, then smoke.
Spouses can be happy only if they are connected by mutual love or at least approach each other with their shortcomings.
An intelligent man may doubt the fidelity of his mistress, but only a fool can doubt the infidelity of his wife.
Success breeds success, as money goes to money.
A man without firm rules is almost always devoid of character: if he had character, he would feel how necessary rules are for him.
What is a mistress? A woman near whom you forget what you knew by heart, in other words, all the shortcomings of her sex.
What is a philosopher? This is a person who opposes nature to laws, reason to customs, conscience to generally accepted views, and his own opinion to prejudices.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Flying Solar Observatory 02.12.2009

In June 2009, a stratosphere balloon with a reflecting telescope of a meter diameter and other equipment for studying the Sun, created in Germany, made a flight. This flying observatory was launched from a Swedish spaceport located above the Arctic Circle.

The total weight of the installation was about two tons, the balloon was filled with 25 thousand cubic meters of helium, and in the stratosphere, at an altitude of about 37 kilometers, it swelled to a volume of one million cubic meters. Constant air currents carried the balloon to the west. When he reached Canada, a radio signal applied caused the balloon to separate, and the equipment descended by parachute.

The flight lasted 137 hours (five and a half days). High-resolution images of the solar disk were taken, the total amount of data collected amounted to several terabytes.
