Scientists Invent Contact Lenses with ‘Zoomability’
Blink twice to get a closer look! via engadget: Scientists at the University of California San Diego have created a prototype contact lens that is controlled by the eye’s movements. Wearers can make the lenses zoom in or out by simply blinking twice. A paper detailing the team’s findings was published this month in Advanced Functional Materials. The biomimetic lens … Continue reading
Dozens of Unidentified Flying Lights Seen Over Wyoming
According to the video’s description, a person who witnessed this event said that the mysterious objects looked like some kind of craft and moved across the sky in complete silence. It appears that marching into Area 51 to “see them aliens”, as one Facebook joke event suggests, might be unnecessary as a peculiar event which, according to conspiracy theorists, looks … Continue reading
NASA Says the Earth’s Rotation is Slowing, Could Cause Major Earthquakes
Earth’s rotation is slowing down as the Moon moves farther away from the planet – and scientists believe it could cause major earthquakes. Earth’s rotation is slowing as our planet uses energy to keep the tidal bulge ahead of the Moon’s orbit. The Moon’s gravity keeps Earth’s rotation in check, and to do this the lunar satellite’s orbit must be … Continue reading
Elongated UFO Picked up by Motion Sensor Camera Near Area 51
On July 22, 2019 an elongated UFO was recorded by a motion sensor camera near Area 51. The UFO had none of the typical attributes of an earthly aircraft such as wing or tail, indicating the possibility of it being another secret Area 51 project or even alien technology. Video uploader: “My motion sensor camera picked this up at Rachel, … Continue reading
Rare Mosquito Borne Virus that Can Cause Personality Changes Found in NY & Massachusetts
If you needed another reason to use bug spray this summer, here it is: A rare virus that causes brain damage has been confirmed in mosquitoes in New York and Massachusetts, health officials reported last week.

Exoplanet With 3 Suns a Great Site to Search for Alien Life
A newly discovered planet with three suns is exciting scientists for its close proximity to Earth and its potential for future observation, including possible signs of extraterrestrial life. LTT 1445Ab is just 22.5 light-years away and was found using data gathered by NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), which searches for exoplanets. The planet orbits just one of its three … Continue reading
Scientists Shocked to Discover ‘City-Killer Asteroid’ Whizzed Past Earth in Scary Near Miss
Alan Duffy was confused. On Thursday, the astronomer’s phone was suddenly flooded with calls from reporters wanting to know about a large asteroid that had just whizzed past Earth, and he couldn’t figure out “why everyone was so alarmed.” The space rock, named Asteroid 2019 OK, came hurtling toward Earth at a speed of nearly 15 miles a second, before … Continue reading
“Mind-Bending” –‘Hyper-Advanced ET May Be What We Perceive to Be Physics’
“It’s a great mind-bending twist. Perhaps hyper-advanced life isn’t just external. Perhaps it’s already all around. It is embedded in what we perceive to be physics itself, from the root behavior of particles and fields to the phenomena of complexity and emergence,” says Dr. Caleb Scharf, a research scientist at Columbia University and director of the Columbia Astrobiology Center. “What … Continue reading
Plasma-Powered Reactor, Like the Sun but 10 Times Hotter!
File this in, color me worried about “what could go wrong here”.. via RT: An alliance of 35 countries has finished laying the groundwork for one of humanity’s most ambitious experiments – to harness nearly unlimited amounts of energy by creating ‘small stars’ on Earth. The extreme heat and gravity inside the core of the Sun and other stars make … Continue reading
