Hey scholars of #myth and #folklore :
I have this memory of reading about #Ragnarok as the consequence of 3 great sins of the #Norse gods. Breaking their word to the builder of #Asgard walls was one, I think. Odin was saddened each time because he knew what was coming. I can't find this framing anywhere now, was it ever a thing?
Our Norse Mythology Quiz has just been published - Time for Ragnarök!

Der #KreisMettmann nutzt für seine Kreisleitstelle die Software #Asgard, um fremdsprachige Notrufe in Echtzeit zu übersetzen. Eingeführt im 1. Quartal 2024 gab es bereit über 1.000 Notrufe, die darüber erfolgreich abgewickelt wurden. #Notruf #Feuerwehr
So die #Beliskner von #Thor dem #Asgard aus #Stargate fertig zusammen gebaut.
War ein sehr tolles #BlueBrixx Set.
If we really believe in practicing world-affirming religions, then we should affirm the world we live in by working for the good of the planet and all that live upon it.
This is another weird one. Much like the Bubble Nebula, Thor's Helmet nebula formed around a highly energetic Wolf Rayet star but has more interesting patterns swirling out from it. My scope doesn't have quite enough reach to do it justice, but by cropping in, drizzling, and using tools like BlurXterminator, I can manage a decent image.

Many #Asgard #Archaea have a multiprotein complex #oligosaccharyltransferase https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06186-2 This is wild! The established view was that the ancestral eukaryote had a single protein Stt3 enzyme and subunits were added during eukaryotic evolution to regulate #glycosylation.

An article published in the journal "Nature" reports a study on archaea that belong to the proposed superphylum called Asgard and in particular on their characteristics that make them a possible evolutionary missing link with eukaryotes.
Stunningly beautiful imagery of the #Asgard #Archaeon Candidatus 'Lokiarchaeum ossiferum'
