The article further highlights that the greatest challenge in returning Mars samples to Earth lies not in the formidable technical or scientific obstacles, but in quarantining and monitoring required once these extraterrestrial materials arrive—a process known as planetary protection.As China is poised to become the first country to return potentially biologically active planetary material, including potential life forms, from beyond Earth, the potential risk such substances might pose to terrestrial life, including humans, is a major concern. To address this, China plans to construct a specialized facility on the outskirts of Hefei, its renowned scientific hub, where Martian samples will undergo comprehensive biochemical and pathological testing under strict isolation from Earth's environment.
Only after it is conclusively determined that the samples contain no active biological agents or substances that could threaten Earth's biosphere will they be released to designated laboratories for in-depth scientific analysis.
I think I can read a certain negative #framing here. If it were #NASA, wouldn't we just celebrate the achievement and implicitly assume that NASA will ensure the necessary safety? But when it comes to #China, the mistrust seems to be greater than the appreciation of the technical achievement.

Dels testimoniatges esquinçadorament bells del Dr. Ezzideen de Gaza.
No hi ha internet.
No hi ha senyal. No hi ha so. No hi ha món més enllà d'aquesta gàbia.
Vaig caminar trenta minuts entre ruïnes i pols. No buscant escapar, sinó un fragment de senyal, just prou per a murmurar: «Continuem vius».
No perquè algú estiga escoltant,
si no perquè morir sense ser escoltat és la mort definitiva.
Jabàlia és un barri de la ciutat de Gaza. Un camp de refugiats, doncs la Franja és un gueto creat pels ocupants, on van obligar a viure a centenars de milers de palestins expulsats de Palestina en 1948 i 1967.
Tinc un amic d'allà, un artista. He tardat any i mig en poder parlar amb ell. Ho ha perdut tot. I li han assassinat al fill. Però encara li queda vida i estima. Potser.
Jabàlia vol dir muntanyenca. D'allà ve el nostre terme Javalí, muntanyenc.
De la mateixa Mediterrània.
Javalí és un terme anterior a senglar. Un terme utilitzat des de fa 1.300 anys. Arabisme incorporat al valencià-català. I usat tradicionalment al País Valencià i la Catalunya Nova. Senglar, de reminiscències afrancesades-occitanes, es popularitza al nostre país fa unes dècades.
També és un cognom comú a Palestina, clar.
The refugees of Jabalia are descendants of 38,000 Palestinians who were ethnically cleansed from Ashdod, Yaffa, Ramleh, Lydd, and Beer Sabe during the Nakba of 1948.
