In 2011, scientists found something unexpected hiding beneath the Amazon. There, 4,000 meters (13,100 feet) beneath the earth was an enormous body of water almost long enough to rival the Amazon and much wider.
River Hamza, as Brazil’s National Observatory unofficially named the beast, acts like drainage for the region and was discovered after Petrobras (an oil company) drilled hundreds of wells. They were drilled back in the 70s and 80s, but when scientists later took a look inside they discovered the monstrous waterway that was hiding underneath. It was after the leader of this team of researchers that the underground waterway was named.
It begins under the Andes in the Acre region and winds its way on through to the Solimões, Amazonas and Marajó basins before slipping out unseen into the Atlantic Ocean. The flowing river Amazon speeds along at around 5 meters (16 feet) per second. By comparison, the painfully slow-trickling Hamza moves along at a casual 1 millimeter (0.04 inches) per hour, writes The Guardian.
David Guetta is bringing the topic of artificial intelligence to the forefront after proving just how well the new technology works at replicating the voices of pop artists.
Last week, the French DJ and producer shared a video of him playing a song during one of his sets that used AI technology to add the “voice” of Eminem to one of his songs.
“Let me introduce you to… Emin-AI-em,” Guetta wrote in the Twitter post’s caption. In the attached video, Guetta is seen hyping up a massive crowd while an unreleased track featuring a replica of Eminem’s voice echoes: “This is the future rave sound / I’m getting awesome and underground.”
A team of researchers has reduced the size of a laser-based mass spectrometer to optimize its use for future life-detection missions.
Dr. Harold Katcher, Cheif Scientific Officer of Yuvan Research Inc., is interviewed by Nicolás Cherñavsky and Nina Torres Zanvettor about the rat Sima, a Sprague Dawley rat that has lived for 47 months (exceeding the maximum lifespan of 45.5 months of this rat strain) thanks to a treatment with E5, a plasma-based therapeutic developed by Yuvan.

Dr. Kristie Miller, co-director of the Centre for Time at the University of Sydney, explained that the block universe theory says that our universe could be seen as a big four-dimensional block of spacetime that holds everything that ever happens.
In the world of blocks, there is no “now” or “now.” Within the three directions of space and the one direction of time, all moments only exist in relation to each other. Your experience of the present is just a reflection of where you are in the block world at the time. The “past” is just a piece of the world at a different time. The “future,” on the other hand, is at a different time.
So, is time just a trick your mind plays on you? And, more importantly, is it possible to go back in time?
