Lorde Ultrasound world tour: finally found my green light

Lorde Ultrasound world tour: finally found my green light

From her early hits off the 2013 album Pure Heroineto her 2025 chart-topping album Virgin, New Zealand's pop superstar Lorde has captured the hearts and minds of her over 30 million listeners on Spotify. Despite only having four studio albums spanning a nearly 20 year long career, Lorde has managed to sell out nearly every stadium on her recent Ultrasound World Tour, playing for adoring fans across the globe.Lorde began her Ultrasound World Tour in Austin, Texas on Sept. 17, performing in 10 cities since, with 38 left spanning 19 countries. Most recently, Lorde sold out The Anthem in Washington, D.C. on Oct. 4 and Oct. 5, performing with openers Chanel Beads and The Japanese House.Chanel Beads took the stage around 7 p.m., introducing The Anthem to its unique indie-rock sound. With around 600k listeners on Spotify, Chanel Beads was clearly working to expand his audience to the larger fanbase held by Lorde. There is not much to say about their performance, as a combination of the overwhelming heat of The Anthem and the incredibly intense feedback from the microphones and speakers during their set led to a less than ideal listening experience for the audience. From the parts audible, Chanel Beads seemed to fit into the overall vibe and sound of Lorde.At 8:15 p.m., The Japanese House began her set. With around 2.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify, The Japanese House opened to a loud cheer from the audience. Any audio issues were solved by this point, allowing us to clearly hear her indie tunes. The excitement was now tangible in the audience, partly because Lorde was only 45 minutes away, but also because of the fun of The Japanese House. Her funky yet hypnotizing sound seemingly captured the ears of her pre-existing fans and those being introduced to her music for the first time.Finally, at 9:05 p.m. the lights of The Anthem dimmed and the audience began to roar. Strobe lights appeared from the stage as Lorde seemed to materialize in front of everyone. She opened with "Hammer," a hit song off of her 2025 album Virgin. Fans screamed their hearts out as she began the concert, while others sobbed with their friends as Lorde called out to the audience.Lorde then continued to play some of her biggest hits, such as "Royals" and "Buzzcut Season" from Pure Heroine. The energy in the audience was palpable as Lorde effortlessly combined her intense lyricism and jaw-dropping physical performance. Notably, Lorde played on the vulnerability of her songs, as she would remove articles of clothing or look longingly into the audience as she sang of heartbreak, loneliness and despair. It was this authenticity that bonded the audience. It was the type of performance where you cried while holding hands with strangers you met an hour ago.As the concert progressed, Lorde held the audience in the palm of her hand, feeding into our every emotion. As the temperature in the pit began to rise, Lorde stopped the show twice as concert-goers passed out, waiting for them to be brought to safety before resuming her show.In the last six songs of her 24-song show, Lorde solidified her legacy as not just a singer, but as a performer able to bring together thousands of people. At the end of "Team," the stage lit up with the colors of the Palestinian flag. The crowd cheered at this display, serving as a contrast from the D.C. outside The Anthem, where members of the National Guard were walking the perimeter of the venue.Lorde then transitioned into her final section of the concert, playing her biggest hits, "What Was That" from Virgin and "Green Light" from Melodrama. While "Green Light" played, green strobe lights flashed vigorously as the crowd jumped up and down shouting along with the lyrics. It felt more like a communal bonding experience than just a concert. Lorde soon joined the audience in its celebration as she walked through the pit to perform "David."Lorde entered the audience, taking people's hands and singing right to them as she made her way to the B stage to perform her encore. She performed "A World Alone" and "Ribs." The audience yet again sobbed, jumped and sang along with every note.As Lorde ended her show and fans filed out of The Anthem, the consensus, it seemed to me, was that this concert was one that was made of pure magic. Lorde had her audience singing, dancing, sobbing, screaming, jumping and laughing all within her two hours of performance.Lorde committed every bit of herself to her show, reminding us all at the end that the reason she writes is for us and that her songs become ours over time. Every bit of that message was felt as she performed. The show she put on caused people to feel united, especially in a time where life can feel so polarizing. Lorde put on a show that was special for those attending with their friends of over 10 years as well as those attending with their new friends of just two months. If you see Lorde on tour, prepare to laugh, cry, and hold hands with the stranger next to you while jumping up and down.

AI-Driven Genome Strategy Accelerates Design of Ultra-Tough Polyimide Films

Balancing stiffness, strength, and toughness in thermosetting polyimide films has long challenged materials scientists. In this study, researchers combined machine learning with a materials-genome framework to rapidly predict and optimize these competing properties. By defining polymer substructures as molecular "genes," they screened more than 1,700 phenylethynyl-terminated polyimide candidates and identified one formulation, PPI-TB, with simultaneously high Young's modulus, tensile strength, and elongation at break. The model's predictions were confirmed by molecular dynamics simulations and laboratory testing. This integrated strategy drastically shortens development cycles and provides a cost-effective, data-driven pathway for designing high-performance polymer films.

The Tycho Supernova's Hidden Secret
2025-10-27

The Tycho Supernova's Hidden Secret

The famous Tycho supernova of 1572, witnessed by Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, didn't explode in empty space as has been assumed. New analysis reveals it detonated inside a planetary nebula, the ghostly shell of gas expelled by an earlier dying star. The evidence lies in two "ear" shaped structures that were sticking out from the remnant's main shell, matching similar features in three other supernovae previously identified as explosions within planetary nebulae. This discovery supports the "core-degenerate" model where a white dwarf star merges with a companion star's core, with the explosion occurring hundreds of thousands of years later while the nebula remains intact. Most strikingly, if Tycho follows this pattern, it suggests that 70-90% of normal Type Ia supernovae may actually be supernovae inside planetary nebulae!

Global study reveals tempo of invasive species' impacts

A new study shows for the first time that biological invasions don't change ecosystems in a single, uniform way.

These results help clarify when environmental managers should act fast to prevent damage and where patient monitoring is wiser.

McGill team pinpoints where a type of cell death begins

A team at McGill University studying ferroptosis, a form of cell death, have discovered that the process begins deep inside the cell, a finding that could lead to new treatments for cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.Using antioxidant probes that light up as they are consumed, the team tracked ferroptosis in real time and identified the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as the key cellular structure where the process first takes hold. Protecting the ER and the lysosome, they found, can halt ferroptosis entirely.

A 'seating chart' for atoms helps locate their positions in materials

If you think of a single atom as a grain of sand, then a wavelength of visible light—which is a thousand times larger than the atom's width—is comparable to an ocean wave. The light wave can dwarf an atom, missing it entirely as it passes by. This gulf in size has long made it impossible for scientists to see and resolve individual atoms using optical microscopes alone.

Radiocarbon dating of Egyptian artifacts puts Thera (Santorini) volcanic eruption prior to Pharaoh Ahmose

One of the largest volcanic eruptions in the last 10,000 years took place at the Greek island of Thera (Santorini) in the Aegean Sea, but its dating during the late 17th or 16th century BCE remained controversial. Volcanic ash from the eruption spread over a large area in the eastern Mediterranean region. One of the lingering questions in archaeology was how this huge geological event lined up with royal Egyptian chronologies.

These are the 27 essential cleaning products every home needs, according to 5 cleaning experts

Nearly all of the cleaning experts I talked to listed some form of Dawn dish soap as a holy grail product. Carissa Nuñez, the cleaning content creator behind CarissaCleansItAll, calls Dawn’s Powerwash spray the “main character” of her cleaning routine. “It can handle a shower, a sink, 10 years of grease buildup — you name it,” she said. Sabrina Fierman, president of cleaning service New York’s Little Elves, and Sarah McAllister, founder and CEO of GoCleanCo and House Work, also like Dawn’s dish soap for cleaning everything from countertops to outdoor furniture to windows. “A tablespoon in a gallon of water makes a great all-purpose cleaner, and it’s excellent as a pre-treatment for removing tough laundry stains, such as oil and grease,” Fierman said.

Red light and recyclable catalysts drive sustainable photocatalysis

Modern chemistry is increasingly focused on developing sustainable processes that reduce energy consumption and minimize waste. Photocatalysis, which uses light to promote chemical reactions, offers a promising alternative to more aggressive conventional methods. However, most existing photocatalysts are homogeneous—they dissolve in the reaction medium and cannot be easily recovered or reused—and they typically rely on blue or ultraviolet light, which is more energy-demanding and penetrates poorly into reaction mixtures, limiting their large-scale and biological applications.
