Khia Says Saweetie’s “ICY GRL” Is Least-Favorite “My Neck, My Back” Sample

Over the years, Khia’s 2000s smash hit “My Neck, My Back (Lick It)” has been sampled by many rappers. But the 45-year-old has spoken on one usage she did not particularly like: Saweetie’s 2017 breakout song “ICY GRL.”A TikTok user posted a video of the MC providing her opinion on different artists who have turned to 2002’s “My Neck, My Back.” When asked, Khia revealed she likes Saweetie’s track the least. “Least favorite would be Saweetie; Sweet Pea. I don’t like her,” she said. “I didn’t think she did it any…

New Explanation Uncovered for the Mysterious Motion of Europa’s Icy Shell

There’s Evidence of Hydrothermal Vents in The Oceans of Saturn’s Icy Moon Enceladus : ScienceAlert

Mystery silica ejected in huge quantities from Saturn's icy moon Enceladus is powerful new evidence pointing to heat vents on the floor of a global ocean.According to a new analytical model, internal heating from the moon's core creates ocean currents that transport the silica particles, which are ejected from deep-sea hydrothermal vents that also release heat into the surrounding waters.It's a tantalizing finding that teases a real possibility of the existence of life, deep below an alien ocean on an alien world.When…

Cucamonga Peak hiker survives 200-foot fall from an icy trail

The last thing Ruth Woroniecki remembers before waking up bleeding on the snow, surrounded by a group of worried hikers, is telling herself to focus on the slippery trail at her feet.It was a sunny and clear Christmas Eve morning, and Woroniecki was hiking the San Gabriel Mountains. She’d summited Cucamonga Peak, one of Los Angeles’ most popular mountaintops, which rises more than 8,000 feet, when she came upon an icy switchback on her descent. “I did not have traction,” Woroniecki, 40, said. She put her phone and…

OnePlus’ latest concept phone has icy blue ‘blood vessels’ that glow

The layer of icy blue pipelines is sandwiched between the internal components of the phone and the outer back cover.  OnePlusThis isn't the company's first time unveiling forward-looking devices to the public; it did just that three years ago at CES, demoing its Concept One prototype that used electrochromic glass to hide its camera lenses. Like most concept products, that design never saw the light of day. The same outcome can be expected with the new OnePlus 11 Concept, which the company says will be unveiled next

Is There Life on Saturn’s Icy Moon Enceladus? A Future Space Mission Could Provide Answers

Artist’s impression of the Cassini spacecraft flying through plumes erupting from the south pole of Saturn’s moon Enceladus. These plumes are much like geysers and expel a combination of water vapor, ice grains, salts, methane, and other organic molecules. Credit: NASA/JPL-CaltechEnceladus, encased in a thick ice shell and surrounded by a vast ocean, is a strong contender for potentially containing extraterrestrial life. Researchers have concluded that without even requiring a landing on this tiny world, a future mission…

Europe’s Juice Satellite all set to explore Jupiter’s icy moons

The European Space Agency (ESA) has informed that the Juice satellite has just completed its final tests and is all set to explore Jupiter's icy moons. Europe's mission to Jupiter's Moon is all set for its launch in April 2023. The Juice satellite has just completed its final tests. Informing about the same, the European Space Agency (ESA) tweeted, "The countdown to #Juice is on! A commemorative plaque celebrating Galileo's discovery of Jupiter's moons has been unveiled on @ESA_JUICE. Juice has just completed its final

Mysteriously Deep Snow Covers The Icy Moon Enceladus, But How Did It Get There? : ScienceAlert

Saturn's own orbiting winter wonderland, Enceladus, could be in the midst of a relative dry spell, according to new measures on the thickness of its snowdrifts by a team of researchers from across the US.Calculations based on the sizes of a series of depressions called tectonic pit chains suggest the deposits of ice particles dropping out of polar geysers could be up to 700 meters (about 2,300 feet) deep in some places, something current eruptions can't account for.The findings could mean the frozen moon had far more…

NASA shares stunning image of Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus, internet calls it ‘CGI magic’

The Cassini spacecraft caught a view of Saturn's icy moon Enceladus, which has a subsurface ocean hidden under its frozen surface. The tiny moon's cracked surface may appear like rivers carved into it, but scientists think it's really heated spots in the crust where water ice and gases shoot up from the ocean floor and feed Saturn's E ring. Possible hydrothermal vents leading to the ocean floor may be found at the bottom of some of these cracks. Saturn's moon Enceladus is the sixth biggest in size (19th…
