This week’s entry features a futuristic way for obtaining a direct geometrical measurement of the Hubble constant using the so-called cosmic secular parallax, a study on the possibility of cross-correlating ultra-high energy cosmic rays and large-scale structure and what we would learn from this cross-correlation, and the second-best constraint on the tidal charge of brane-world black holes from the shadow of M87* detected by the Event Horizon Telescope. Enjoy!
