Latest ambitions of one of the leading countries in space science is building bases on the moon high technology and turned the place into a living for humans. It has been over 45 years since the first human to set foot on the moon on July 20/7/1970, the world's only known American first nations people to set foot on the moon. But since the country shifted to explore Mars, birch powers to select lunar plans are based build future life for humanity. In 1969, the Russian (then Soviet Union) each autonomous robot car launched Lunokhod 1 name of the space program Lunokhod moon to explore the surface. Unfortunately the first attempt failed because the satellite does n…

European Space Agency (ESA) to build a space base on the moon. This base can replace the International Space Station (ISS) in the future. Russia, Japan to build bases on moon Europe built bases on the Moon ESA wants to build space base on the moon This radical idea by Professor Jan Woernerc of ESA proposals. Pursuant named Lunarville. Even scientists also intend to plant trees on the moon in the greenhouse. Over 370,000 km from Earth, it takes about 2 days to go from Earth to Lunarville. ESA wants to build bases on moon The illustration is based on the moon - (Screenshot ESA) "Building a space station on the moon may trigger wave of technological innovation…

Collectively Conscious I wonder if their partial explanation is hiding something besides a viable biological process. Moreover, this process pushes at the edges of law and ethics. Who will be the father and who is responsible if the child has serious and expensive medical problems. What happens to the baby if the mother dies is child birth. I think I am opposed to such a patent being issueds ; although, I haven't considered the issues fully. I think this will be hotly contested, more than Monsanto's GMO program.

Here I'll point out an aging research crowdfunding project by Harvard Scientists at Experiment, it focuses on carrying out a small project in developing functional metrics of age to help reversing aging. Harvard Medical School has reported successful aging reversal using genetic and biochemical methods in the labs of Dr. George Church and Dr. David Sinclair. These scientists are seeking support for their project here: url deleted by mod Any contribution will be highly appreciated, Thank you!

The extinction of Gigantopithecus probably isn't news but new evidence on the probable cause of that extinction was recently published. They stood about 9 feet and are cousin to the Asian orangutan. A group researching the remains of teeth found that during an Ice Age, about 100,000 years ago, they likely could not adapt to the diminishing supply of the vegetation that serve their huge dietary needs. The link above will take you to the article. I welcome your thoughts.

Want something to blow your mind?First thing you've ever heard off? A man that's been born,with an energy. Now the man is just like any other human being,but with energy. (First type.) The idea is that.His brain thought's/feeling's are the energy he's been born with,unlike a human being.It has all the tool's (everything) and can do everything for the human-being.That's the science with him.That's it!!He's a special kind of man born on this earth.Now the science (energy) that I'm talking about is there with him baby. Its everything,and it can literally do anything in/on a human being. Here's a few things of what it can do. -tactile hallucination -It can make him cl…

So does anyone remember the much mocked claims made by the hippies and whackos and anti-science victims of Dunning-Kruger, to the effect that one of the serious problems with the major GMOs currently marketed was their all but inevitable breeding of resistance to the relatively benign herbicides and pesticides they exploited (Bt and glyphosate), with various consequences all generally unfortunate (especially: the loss of the better chemicals to responsible use)? Among the expected consequences - expected by the Luddites etc - was to be an expansion of the GMs involved to include increasingly less benign chemicals (and of course an increasingly complex mixture of adjuvant…

UCLA researchers create new method that targets tumors with the same effectiveness but a significant reduction in both side effects and cost. Pancreatic cancer: Pancreatic cancer, a devastating disease with a five-year survival rate of 5 percent, is difficult to detect early and symptoms do not usually appear until the disease is advanced. As a result, many people are not diagnosed until their tumors are beyond the effective limits of surgery, leaving chemotherapy as the only viable treatment option. The chemotherapy drug most often used for pancreas cancer is gemcitabine, but its impact is often limited. Research: Recent research has found that combining gemcitabine wi…

The following article shows an economic application of centimeter resolution real time navigation using quasi zenith satellite positioning. This article is the result even with an initial limited number of available satellites. With the next generation of micro-satellites universities could collaborate to build a similar European system to provide safe automated driving, night-time agricultural activity and centimeter precision soil management to provide a major improvement to a wide range of different industrial activities. In short a clear economic advantage for Europe and a wealth of post graduate opportunity. Utilisation of the Japanese Quasi-Zenith Satellite Syst…

Hurricane Patricia is heading towards Mexico with wind speeds over 200 mph and a central pressure of 880 mb. This is one of the most powerful hurricanes recorded. Does anyone know how low a pressure can possibly go and why? Data for Hurricane Patricia Hurricane Wilma had the lowest pressure in the Atlantic at 882 mb and Typhoon Tip in the Pacific at 870 mb. Hurricane Patricia is doing her best to break all the records and is now predicted to hit at cat5 status!!! Here is the visible shot.

Is there something wrong with the Dawn spacecraft? I was expecting huge numbers of detailed pictures now, especially of the light spots but so far not much is being said.
