Those around in the ‘70s and ‘80s would recall the nostalgic era that provided cheaper groceries, cinema tickets, stadium passes, smoking sections in McDonald’s, and grocery clerks that helped with your shopping. Affordable gas and much more. A photo album containing scraps of Kodak moments from the ‘80s and ‘90s has been discovered, and the wholesome photos take one back to the long-gone era. They include kids playing and interacting without fear of insecurity, without phones or iPads distracting them, and much more. Mail trucks   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) Back then, most messages were sent via mail, unlike today, when electronic and instant messages are the order of the day. Mail trucks were also recognizable as four-wheeler blue and white vans with a red stripe. RELATED: Famous ’70s Child Stars You Would NEVER Recognize Today No jeans in school   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) Photos of high school students back then showed them in casual, smart outfits with no jeans. They looked well put together, the young men in shirts or tees and the ladies in dainty dresses or skirts with blouses. Little girl outfits   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) Dresses for young girls were more age-friendly back then. They featured frills, floral detailing, and cute Peter Pan collars. The gowns usually had layers, giving them that puffy look, with the hem resting just below the knees. Oldies back then   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Aaron Blutman (@bloodbrainsandaliens) People’s grandparents and the elderly of today were the youngsters of the ‘70s and ‘80s. It was a time when cool fashion was in vogue, and ladies kept their makeup minimalistic but went all out with flamboyant hairstyles. Rock groups of the ‘70s and ‘80s   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) The Beatles were already a craze in the ‘70s; however, bands like Led Zeppelin, The Beach Boys, Black Sabbath, and Queen also owned the airwaves. An all-woman rock group named The Runaways also came together in 1975, comprising singers and instrumentalists Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Jackie Fox, Cherie Currie, Sandy West, and Michael Steele. Other female-only bands of the era include Jefferson Airplane, The Pointers Sisters, Sisters Sledge, and others. Big, bulky appliances and products   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) Today, smartphones contain what used to be bulky items like radios, TVs, video cameras, floppy disks, keyboards, and so much more. A photo featured a headphone-wearing man carrying a heavy radio and video camera, with many other electronics displayed. Grocery clerks   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) With the rise of technology and everybody minding their business, self-service is the way for most stores. However, grocery clerks were actively involved in your shopping, even helping you load your car back then. Drive in cinema   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) Drive-in cinemas were common in the past, and viewers could stop by on their way to work. They were also great scenery for lovers and did not cost much. There were thousands of such theaters all over the U.S., but only about 300 still function these days. No tattoos or colored hair   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) Many young persons today have tattoos, extra piercings, or colored hair. However, this was not the case decades ago. Simple was in, with little modifications to the face or body. People invested more in outfits and quality shoes and bags to feel cool. Unsafe car seats   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Grew Up in the 70’s and 80’s (@grew_up_in_the_70s_and_80s) One of the many photos in the Kodak scrapbook showed a baby in a not-so-safe-looking car seat, mostly hard metal and plastic with no padding. The smiling youngster looked satisfied and comfortable while strapped to it with the car’s safety belt. Do you remember these days?

Within the last five years, astronomers have discovered a new type of astronomical phenomenon that exists on vast scales – larger than whole galaxies. They’re called ORCs (odd radio circles), and they look like giant rings of radio waves expanding outwards like a shockwave. Until now, ORCs had never been observed in any wavelength other than radio, but according to a new paper released on April 30 2024, astronomers have captured X-rays associated with an ORC for the first time. The discovery offers some new clues as to what might be behind the creation of an ORC. While many astronomical events, like supernova explosions, can leave behind circular remnants, ORCs seem to require a different explanation. “The power needed to produce such an expansive radio emission is very strong,” said Esra Bulbul, lead author of the new paper. “Some simulations can reproduce their shapes but not their intensity. No simulations explain how to create ORCs.” ORCs can be a challenge to study, in part because they are usually only visible in radio wavelengths. They haven’t previously been associated with X-ray or infrared emissions, nor has there been any sign of them in optical wavelengths. Sometimes, ORCs surround a visible galaxy, but not always (eight have been discovered to date around known elliptical galaxies). Using ESA’s XMM-Newton telescope, Bulbul and her team observed one of the nearest known ORCs, an object called the Cloverleaf, and found a striking X-ray component to the object. “This is the first time anyone has seen X-ray emission associated with an ORC,” said Bulbul. “It was the missing key to unlock the secret of the Cloverleaf’s formation.” This image of the first ORC (odd radio circle) ever discovered, aptly dubbed ORC-1, overlays radio observations from South Africa’s MeerKAT telescope in green atop an optical and infrared map from the international DES (Dark Energy Survey) project. J. English (U. Manitoba)/EMU/MeerKAT/DES (CTIO) X-rays of the Cloverleaf show gas that has been heated and excited by some process. In this case, the X-ray emissions reveal two groups of galaxies (totaling about a dozen galaxies altogether) that have begun to merge inside the Cloverleaf, heating the gas to 15 million degrees Fahrenheit. The chaotic galaxy mergers are interesting, but they can’t explain the Cloverleaf by themselves. Galaxies mergers happen all over the universe, while ORCs are a rare phenomenon. There’s something unique going on to create something like the Cloverleaf. “Mergers make up the backbone of structure formation, but there’s something special in this system that rockets the radio emission,” Bulbul said. “We can’t tell right now what it is, so we need more and deeper data from both radio and X-ray telescopes.” That doesn’t mean astronomers don’t have any guesses. “One fascinating idea for the powerful radio signal is that the resident supermassive black holes went through episodes of extreme activity in the past, and relic electrons from that ancient activity were reaccelerated by this merging event,” said Kim Weaver, NASA project scientist for XMM-Newton. In other words, ORCs like the Cloverleaf might require a two-part origin story – powerful emissions from active supermassive black holes, followed by galaxy merger shockwaves that give those emissions a second kick.
