Description:
On April 27, 1961, NASA launched Explorer 11, a satellite that contained the first gamma ray telescope to go to space. <br/><br/>This marked the birth of space-based gamma ray astronomy. Gamma rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation and have the highest energy of any kind of wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves come from things like supernova explosions, supermassive black holes, and even solar flares. Before Explorer 11 launched to look for gamma rays in space, scientists were pretty sure that gamma rays were out there. However, they had to way of detecting these gamma rays, because they get absorbed in Earth's atmosphere. Explorer 11 detected 22 cosmic gamma rays during its seven-month mission. These rays were coming from all over the place and didn't seem to point to any particular sources out in space. This observation became the first evidence of a uniform gamma-ray background in the universe.

It follows Reacher and Neagley (Maria Sten) as they investigate the murders of two members of their elite special forces unit. But in the run up to Reacher returning to the streaming waves, Ritchson surprised fans with the big news: Season 3 already is in the works. <br/><br/>Alan Ritchson has been active on his social media accounts, sharing images from the set of Reacher Season 3. That is both a vote of confidence for this upcoming season, and a thrill for fans because we won’t have to wait as long to see new episodes once this one has wrapped in January. I got the chance to speak with Ritchson ahead of Reacher Season 2, and as our conversation closed, I asked him which Lee Child book they were going to do for Season 3.")
