The Moon S Surface Is Rusting And Earth May Be To Blame

Hematite is created on Earth from the interactions of oxygen and water on iron deposits. However, with water in short supply on the Moon (except inside craters at the poles) and a scarcity of oxygen, researchers are puzzled how the mineral may have formed. The Moon Mineralogy Mapper instrument (M3) onboard the lunar orbiter found telltale signs of hematite, which should not exist in the arid environment on the Moon....

This Amazing New Physics Theory Made Me Believe Time Travel Is Possible

Think about the clock on the wall. You can push the hands backwards, but that doesn’t cause time itself to rewind. Time marches on. But things are much simpler in the quantum realm. If we can mathematically express particulate activity in one direction, then we can mathematically express it in a diametric one. In other words: time travel actually makes sense through a quantum lens. Whatever goes forward must be able to go backward....

Every potential paramour comes complete with a price and reviews. You can select them by height and love language (“acts of service,” or “physical touch”). It’ll no doubt give you a smile if you’re just glancing at it, but once you look at it for a few minutes, it starts to look pretty damned creepy....

Generally, we humans and most robots can only change how we run. But what if we could also change the shape of our bodies to run as fast and safely as possible on any surface? We would like to rely on robots for difficult and dangerous tasks, from inspecting failed nuclear reactors to space exploration. For these tasks, a static body could limit the robot’s adaptability. A shape-shifting body could make the difference between success and failure in these unexpected environments....

This Training In Teaching You How To Think Is Like Giving Your Brain An Upgrade

Thinking isn’t just about pure intelligence. A high IQ doesn’t even mean you’re all that smart. Figures like Vincent van Gogh, Frida Kahlo or Alan Turing can be generational geniuses in their respective fields, yet completely incapable of handling the rigors of everyday life. No, thinking is about having access to the mental tools to solve problems, reason decisions, finalize and approach and take action toward a goal. It may sound simple, but being able to build and use those processes in your own mind is not always as easy as it might seem....
