Hubble has viewed "a dead star about 18 light-years away warping the light of a more distant star that appeared to pass behind it" which Einstein had predicted would happen but said it would never be able to be seen. Hubble made it possible for astronomers "to read clues carried in the curved starlight and discern the mass of the dead star, called Stein 2051B." I find this extremely fascinating that we have made such advanced technology that is able to basically prove Einstein wrong. The fact that anyone could do that is just amazing; being able to prove a genius wrong seems to be an impossible task all on its own.

It was all sort of a whirlwind, and I just went with it." says Betsy McBride, a 24 year-old dancer who started in her local dance school at the age of 3 in the suburbs of Dallas. At 14, Mc Bride went to a summer intensive to get better and learn more, at a school that's affiliated with the Texas Ballet Theater. After a few weeks, she was offered a year-round place at the school. A couple months after that, she was hired into the Texas Ballet Theater. In 2015, McBride contacted the American Ballet Theater, in search of something bigger and new to do in her career. ABT originally said that there were no open spots but offered to let her take a class with them. After the class was over, she had made a good enough impression that a spot just so happened to open up and she was of...
