"United have spent an immense amount since [Sir Alex] Ferguson left and been poor, to put it mildly. Shockingly poor, to be honest," Ratcliffe sniffed. "We have a different approach here [at Nice] to be moderately intelligent about it." Four years on, Ratcliffe has acquired a minority but i NFL uential stake in a club that he claimed to "have lost the plot".

Scientists revive ‘zombie’ virus that spent thousands of years frozen in the Arctic

Warmer Arctic temperatures are thawing the region’s permafrost — a frozen layer of soil beneath the ground — and potentially stirring viruses that, after lying dormant for tens of thousands of years, could endanger animal and human health. While a pandemic unleashed by a disease from the distant past sounds like the plot of a sci-fi movie, scientists warn the risks — though low — are underappreciated. Chemical and radioactive waste that dates back to the Cold War, which has the potential to harm wildlife and disrupt ecosystems, may also be released during thaws. Watch the latest News on Channel 7 or stream for free on 7plus >> “There’s a lot going on with the permafrost that is of concern, and (it) really shows why it’s super important that we keep as much of the permafrost frozen as possible,” NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory climate scientist Kimberley Miner said. Permafrost covers a fifth of the Northern Hemisphere, having underpinned the Arctic tundra and boreal forests of Ala...

NASA's ERBS returning to Earth after 38 years in space

NASA's Earth Radiation Budget Satellite (ERBS) is expected to enter Earth on Sunday, nearly four decades after the agency sent it to space .  After a long journey, the satellite is set to fall back into the planet today at approximately 6:40 PM ET, give or take 17 hours. Since the ERBS will mostly burn up when it reaches here, it is likely to be less harmful.

However, according to the Engadget, the ERBS only achieved a little. It was launched in 1984 to collect ozone and atmospheric measurements until 2005 and help in understanding how Earth absorbed and radiated solar energy.
