Parallel Universe BREAKTHROUGH: Expert Discovers We Could be Part of Alternate Reality
JOIN US ON OUR FACEBOOK AND TWITTER PAGE Ranga-Ram Chary was recently mapping the Cosmic Microwave Background – the light which was left from the Big Bang – when he noticed a “mysterious glow”. Chary says that typically when scanning the Cosmic Microwave Background, you would find nothing but noise, but he added in his research paper that the bright … Continue reading
Incredible: Building Blocks for Life Found in Rosetta’s Comet
Scientists for the first time have directly detected key organic compounds in a comet, bolstering the notion that these celestial objects delivered such chemical building blocks for life long ago to Earth and throughout the solar system. The European Space Agency’s Rosetta spacecraft made several detections of the amino acid glycine, used by living organisms to make proteins, in the … Continue reading
AI? More Like Aieeee!! For The First Time, A Robot Can Feel Pain
Researchers are developing a system to teach robots how to feel pain. That might seem counterintuitive, as IEEE Spectrum points out. After all, “One of the most useful things about robots is that they don’t feel pain.” That means “we have no problem putting them to work in dangerous environments or having them perform task that range between slightly unpleasant … Continue reading
New Superbug Now In the U.S. and Here’s Why Doctors Are So Worried
A much-feared superbug gene has been found for the first time in the United States, and it has health officials very worried. The gene, called mcr-1, was found in a woman from Pennsylvania who had a bad infection last month. In her case, it was an E. coli bacteria. But scientists say this particular gene can turn up in any … Continue reading
Mars Makes Closest Approach to Earth in 11 Years on May 30
Last Sunday morning (May 22), Mars reached opposition with the sun, meaning the Red Planet, Earth and the sun were all arrayed in a straight line. But the moment did not mark Mars’ closest approach to Earth. This Monday evening (May 30) at 5:35 p.m. EDT (2135 GMT), Mars will be the closest it has been to Earth since Oct. … Continue reading
Rogue Asteroid that Could ‘Destroy City’ Entered Earth’s Atmosphere and Just Missed Planet
Recently there was yet another scary rogue asteroid near miss. The object actually entered our atmosphere missing us by a mere few hundred miles (not thousands or million) and lit up the sky over a huge area (5 states) and sent shock waves leading residents to believe the shaking was the result of some natural event like an earthquake or … Continue reading
Sunflower Patterns Reveal Complex Mathematical Patterns – Fibonacci “Super Sequences”
via mysteriousuniverse A paper recently published in the Royal Society Open Science journal details how some surprising new patterns have been observed in the faces of Helianthus annuus, the common sunflower. The study, “Novel Fibonacci and non-Fibonacci structure in the sunflower,” details how the researchers found some complex new mathematical patterns after studying the distribution of seeds in sunflower seedheads, … Continue reading
IBM Designs Molecule That Can Kill Any Virus
As the Zika virus continues to spread there has been renewed attention on the issue of how to treat viruses–such as Zika, Ebola and Dengue–that not only spread rapidly, but that are prone to mutate and become resistant to medication. Now, IBM and Singapore’s Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology claim to be close to an extraordinary cure; a macromolecule that … Continue reading
Life Forms from a Billion Years Ago Discovered
Scientists from China and the United States have discovered macroscopic life forms that were organizing over a billion years ago. The find in the Gaoyuzhuang rock formation in the Yanshan area in Northern China reveals centimeter-scale life forms over 1.5 billion years old. The published study states, “Fossils of macroscopic eukaryotes are rarely older than the Ediacaren Period (635-541 million … Continue reading
Humans Can Be Saved from Fiery Apocalypse by ‘CHANGING Earth’s Orbit’
The Sun – which grows at a rate of 10 per cent every billion years – will continue to expand so much that it will eventually begin to heat up our planet to the point where it is uninhabitable. Although this won’t happen for another 500million years or so, scientists are already gearing up for the inevitable. In a report … Continue reading
