By then, she was working for her father at the Trump Organization, but she built a social life that in many ways eclipsed her famous father. Mr. Trump and his older sons are not fixtures of the New York power scene, but Ms. Trump and Mr. Kushner, who bought The New York Observer in 2006, are more socially nimble.She was seated front row at Carolina Herrera shows at New York Fashion Week, walked the red carpet at the Glamour Woman of the Year gala at Carnegie Hall and was a guest at dinners with..>> view originalWhy is a blue cloud appearing over Antarctica?
The South Pole’s special blanket of clouds usually rolls in during late November and early December, just in time to give the Southern Hemisphere its very own light show for the holidays.But this year, NASA says that the South Pole’s annual noctilucent, or night-shining, cloud show arrived much sooner than expected, in mid-November. Usually, NASA uses the unusual clouds to decode the surrounding mesosphere, the atmospheric layer directly above the stratosphere, explained NASA's Lina Tran in a b..>> view originalESA Funding Approved Despite Schiaparelli Setback
Fund crunch will no longer hamper the European Space Agency's Mars program. The same holds true on the skepticism that had seeped in after the crash of the module Schiaparelli from the first phase and battered faith in the ESA project's future. This follows the ministerial meeting in Lucerne, Switzerland on Dec. 1, where space ministers of 22 member countries along with Slovenia and Canada pledged to contribute the remaining €436 million ($465 million) to take the project forward.

As global temperatures warm, climate scientists expect to see more tornadoes reaching their long, swirling bodies down to Earth. But the data isn't exactly cooperating in a straightforward manner. Scientists have reported that, over the last 50 years, the average number of tornadoes that touch down in the United States each year has not risen. But analysis of this data suggests that the most extreme outbreaks, when several twisters appear as part of a single weather event, are on the rise. Sure..>> view originalSee it!

Netherlands — A recent study indicates that around 55 trillion kilograms of carbon from the earth soil could be released to the atmosphere in the form of greenhouse gasses such as CO2 and methane. Climate change and its fast pace would be the reason for the deadly phenomenon. This could happen by mid-century if real action is not taken soon. Tom Crowther is the ecologist leading the investigation that points to these worrying conclusions, published in the December issue of Nature magazine.

First Posted: Dec 04, 2016 01:57 AM EST The periodic table of elements - known to many as the fundamental reference for chemistry lessons, recently got four new names for some of its unnamed elements. Before that, the four elements - Ununtrium (UUT/113), Ununpentium (UUP/115), Ununseptium (UUS/117), and Ununoctium (UUO/118), all had temporary names. Now, the wait is over. These four elements finally received their official Names from the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IU..>> view originalBuzz Aldrin says altitude sickness forced his South Pole evacuation
Buzz Aldrin said he was evacuated from the South Pole last week because he became short of breath and began showing signs of altitude sickness. The 86-year-old adventurer, who was the second man to walk on the moon, released details Sunday of his dramatic medical evacuation from Antarctica. He is continuing to recuperate in a hospital in Christchurch, New Zealand. Because of the thick ice that blankets Antarctica, the South Pole sits at an elevation of 2,835 meters (9,300 feet).
