Swedish insurance company Folksam releases the results of its annual study on the country’s safest cars. Folksam bases their safety analysis on actual accidents. However, Tesla cars only had seven accidents in Sweden. This is not enough for Folksam to …

In 2014 there was a weekend retreat to explore the possibility of a moon base at a price 10-100x lower than commonly believed. The $5 billion or less resulting price was so low that it begs the question: could a …

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign used a salt-based propellant that had already been proven successful in combustion engines, and demonstrated its compatibility with electrospray thrusters. This will make dual-mode rocket engines successful. It will function in both …

Tokamak Energy Reaches 24.4 Tesla High Temperature Superconducting Magnets Which Are Key to Nuclear Fusion Plans

A small study showed 2.5 years of aging reversal. The people were 1.5 years younger according to epigenetic markers than when they were first measured one year prior. The trial

A 34-year-old store clerk in Japan stole and abused 1300 credit numbers by using his perfect memory. The clerk has eidetic memory. He would memorize the customers name, credit card number, expiration date and security code for a few minutes. …
