| | | | | A first-of-its-kind camera developed in partnership between CU Boulder and Ball Aerospace will soon be landing on the moon. NASA announced today that it has selected a scientific instrument, called the Lunar Compact Infrared Imaging System (L-CIRiS), for its Commercial Lunar Payload Services program. The camera will ride along with one of three robotic landers that will touch down on the lunar surface in the next several years-a key step in NASA's goal of sending people back to the moon by 2024. LASP planetary scientist Paul Hayne, who is leading the development of the instrument, said that the goal is to collect better maps of the lunar surface to understand how it formed and its geologic history. L-CIRiS will use infrared technology to map the temperatures... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The text discusses the post-hoc probability fallacy, which involves making probability claims based on a single observed outcome, such as the existence of life on Earth or the fine-tuning of the universe. It highlights how this fallacy affects various fields, including cosmology, evolutionary biology, and physics. The text explains that these fields often rely on observations of a single data point (e.g., Earth or the universe) to infer probabilities, which is logically flawed. It also mentions the 'rare Earth' hypothesis and the multiverse theory as attempts to explain these phenomena, but both are criticized for relying on the post-hoc fallacy. The text concludes by referencing Steven Pinker's analogy to illustrate the fallacy's absurdity. | |
