Mars is often seen as Earth’s sister planet, and scientists have long dreamed of one day establishing a colony there.But even having a chat on the Red Planet would be tricky, and listening to music would be well-nigh impossible, as new data from NASA’s Perseverance rover demonstrates.In a study published this week in the scientific journal Nature, scientists said they had worked out that the speed of sound is slower and less consistent on Mars, while even quite loud sounds wouldn’t carry half as far.On Earth, sound typically travels at 767 miles per hour. But in the thin carbon dioxide atmosphere of Mars, high-pitched sounds would only move at about 559mph while baser tones would wader along at a sedate 537mph."On Earth, the sounds from an orchestra reach you at the same speed, whether they are low or high,” explained Sylvestre Maurice, the study’s lead author, “but imagine on Mars, if you are a little far from the stage, there will be a big delay”.The sound wouldn’t carry as far either, so you’d need to sit much closer to the stage.

You can…ooh dear.“Oh dear, I should never have done that should I? I was only making it up.”As Phillip simply stared at his co-host,  Alice tried to move on.“It’s fine,” he stated, before joking: “What a strange way to resign.” Alice laughed: “I knew you were going to say something like that.”Stepping into her co-star's conversation, Holly asked: “What do you do with the thing?”“A lot of people join the Boots parenting club so you get extra points, eight points for every £1 you spend on an own-brand product,” Alice explained.“So there’s also the over-60s club.There’s loads

Grace (★★★★☆), the audience was on their feet, ready to bathe the performer in a juicy, well-earned moment of gratitude.Had Payton launched into an immediate reprise, nobody would have minded. “Again?” is a really good song, among several composed by Nolan Williams, Jr., who also directs the fine eight-piece orchestra, and has got this ensemble cast’s vocals all the way together — save for a straggler or two.Director-choreographer Robert Barry Fleming has likewise fit the cast together firmly in their excellent portrayal of a large extended Black family in Philadelphia gathered for the memorial of their dear, deceased matriarch, Gran’Me.Preparing a picnic in the garden behind the family’s restaurant, Minton’s Place, a one-hundred-year tradition in the community and in their family, the Minton cousins and siblings and aunties comprise a lot of moving parts.Backgrounded by a recently dedicated mural that rises stories above the garden, family members are in and out of the kitchen, up and down steep staircases, carrying food, serving food, eating, singing about, dancing with, and arguing about food.All the movement and prop business looks effortless, as the cast weaves around Jason Ardizzone-West’s spare but expressive set.
