A new super simulation called FLAMINGO reveals that the universe's observed galaxy clustering is smoother than predicted by standard models, intensifying the ongoing S8 tension in cosmology, which questions whether current theories or measurements need revision.

Ukraine's Fire Point is producing the Flamingo cruise missile, with plans to increase capacity to seven per day by October, aiming to bolster Ukraine's long-range strike capabilities against Russia. The missile, which has a range of 3,000 km and can hit deep into Russian territory, represents a significant advancement in Ukraine's military arsenal, potentially changing the dynamics of the conflict. Its production capacity is comparable to Russia's missile output, and it offers Ukraine a strategic advantage by enabling independent targeting within Russia.

A flamingo was spotted on Cape Cod, potentially marking the first confirmed sighting of a wild American flamingo in Massachusetts. Experts believe the bird may have been displaced by Hurricane Idalia. The Massachusetts Avian Records Committee will determine if the bird is wild.

Astronomers are conducting the largest-ever computer simulations of the universe using the FLAMINGO project, aiming to understand how the universe evolved from its beginnings billions of years ago. These simulations include normal matter, dark matter, and dark energy, and have 300 billion particles in a cubic volume of space with edges of 10 billion light-years. The initial results have not resolved the tension between the observed clumping of the universe and the cold dark matter model, but the researchers have found that including normal matter is crucial for accurate predictions. The FLAMINGO data, which is several petabytes in size, has not been made available to the public yet.

A flamingo has been spotted at Cave Run Lake in Rowan County, Kentucky. The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife confirmed the sighting and believes the flamingo was displaced from the Yucatan Peninsula during Hurricane Idalia. Flamingo sightings have been reported across the southeast and into Ohio. As a migratory bird, it is expected that the flamingo will eventually work its way back south and reunite with other flamingos before attempting to return to its original location.
