. Discovered initially by SkyMapper, SMSS J031300.36-670839.3, is a sub-giant halo star, found from a high resolution blue MIKE spectrum to have an undetectable Fe abundance and overabundances of C, Mg, and Ca, relative to Fe. We recently obtained 29 UVES spectra extending to 3060 Angstroms which has enabled us to measure the oxygen abundance from the OH lines, and lower the 1D, LTE Fe abundance limit to [Fe/H] .

... Cosmic Vacuum . Recent observational studies of remote supernovae have suggested the existence of cosmic vacuum with the density which is larger than the total density of all the other forms of cosmic energy in the Universe. Vacuum produces the field of anti-gravity and induces acceleration of the cosmological expansion. ... The discovery of the cosmic vacuum leads to a drastic change in the current concepts concerning the present state of the Universe. ...
