WHO Issues Warning Regarding Imminent Spread of UNTREATABLE Gonorrhoea Superbug
At least three people worldwide are infected with totally untreatable “superbug” strains of gonorrhoea which they are likely to be spreading to others through sex, the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Friday. Giving details of studies showing a “very serious situation” with regard to highly drug-resistant forms of the sexually-transmitted disease (STD), WHO experts said it was “only a … Continue reading

The puppy, named Long Long, was born May 28 in the laboratory of Beijing-based biotech company Sino Gene. His father, Apple was born in December and was the world’s … Continue reading
Experts Predict When AI Will Surpass Humans in ALL Tasks
Big questions about humanity’s future also merit a side question over humanity’s future alongside machines. How long before AI outperforms humans in various tasks? A bracing new study presents responses from professionals working in that field. “When Will AI Exceed Human Performance? Evidence from AI Experts,” is by Katja Grace, John Salvatier, Allan Dafoe, Baobao Zhang and Owain Evans, and … Continue reading
Massive Lunar Explosion As 88 Pound Meteor Strikes The Moon, NASA Warns We Could Be Next
A METEOR with the explosive power of TEN cruise missiles has struck the Moon – sparking a massive explosion visible with the naked eye. And terrifyingly the 56,000 mph collision – captured by NASA scientists highlighting the catastrophic danger planet earth faces from similar meteors – was caused by a space rock weighing no more than 88 lbs (40 kilos). … Continue reading
Another Study Confirms, We Live in a Cosmic Void
Earth and its parent galaxy are living in a cosmic desert — a region of space largely devoid of other galaxies, stars and planets, according to a new study. The findings confirm the results of a previous study based on observations taken in 2013. That previous study showed that Earth’s galaxy, the Milky Way, is part of a so-called cosmic … Continue reading
European Space Agency Plans to Build Spacecraft Capable of Detecting PARALLEL UNIVERSES
THE European Space Agency (ESA) has announced plans to develop a spacecraft to help them unravel the mysteries of gravitational waves and potentially discover the existence of parallel universes. The ESA’s Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission is set for launch in 2034 and will look to research gravitational waves. Early last year, astronomers announced they had detected two gravitational … Continue reading
Stephen Hawking’s Research Indicates There May Be A Way Out Of A Black Hole
You’ve heard the concept that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Physicists have believed that information followed those same rules. Einstein’s theory of general relativity holds that all information is fundamentally conserved in the universe. But what about when black holes enter the picture? Stephen Hawking has an answer for that. Suck It In Until now, scientists believed black holes … Continue reading
Highly Unusual Comet Challenging Researchers
Scientists pursue research through observation, experimentation and modeling. They strive for all of these pieces to fit together, but sometimes finding the unexpected is even more exciting. That’s what happened to University of Central Florida’s astrophysicist Gal Sarid, who studies comets, asteroids and planetary formation and earlier this year was part of a team that published a study focused on … Continue reading
Ancient Chinese ‘Giants’ Discovered by Archeologists
Archeologists in China’s Shandong province unearthed skeletal remains of ‘giant’ humans who lived 5,000 years ago. Since 2016, archeologists have been excavating a large site in the east of the country. The site contains the ruins of 104 houses, 205 graves and 20 sacrificial pits. Dating from the late neolithic period, some 5,000 years ago, the relics belong to an … Continue reading
Huge Asteroid Apophis is Coming to Our Way – How Safe Are We?
NASA seems to have done great so far in accurately calling the trajectory of asteroids and surprisingly quite accurately I might add (by great I mean accurate record for calling correctly no hitters and being pretty precise in the passing proximity to Earth). In the case of Apophis I am hoping their streak continues. zeenews.india reports: Apophis asteroid will speed … Continue reading
