Researchers find âQueen of the Oceanâ ancient great white shark off Nova Scotia coast
Posted by Genevieve Klien in category: futurism
The shark, named Nukumi by researchers, is more than 17 feet long, 3,541 pounds and believed to be about 50-years-old.
Researchers off the coast of Nova Scotia found a nearly 2-ton great white shark believed to be roughly 50 years old, dubbing her a true âQueen of the Ocean.â
Coming in at more than 17 feet long and 3,541 pounds, she is the largest shark the group has been able to sample in the Northwest Atlantic, according to a Friday Facebook post by OCEARCH, a non-profit marine research organization. Sheâs been named Nukumi for âthe legendary wise old grandmother figureâ of the Indigenous Miâkmaq people, a First Nations group native to that region of Canada.

Scientists Create Clear, Glasslike Material Out of Wood
Posted by Quinn Sena in categories: futurism, materials
Itâs a lucrative concept that has drawn the attention of researchers across the globe in recent years.
But thanks to a new generation of futuristic building materials, those materials could be poised for a significant upgrade. A team of researchers at the USDA and several research institutions say theyâve developed âtransparent wood,â a glass-like material made almost entirely out of trees that they claim is stronger, safer, more cost efficient and more thermally efficient than glass.

Archaeologists Just Unveiled a Fully Intact Mummy Thatâs Been Sealed For 2,500 Years
Posted by Quinn Sena in category: futurism
O,.o.
Archaeologists in Egypt said Saturday they had found 59 well-preserved and sealed wooden coffins over recent weeks that were buried more than 2,500 years ago.
Opening one of the ornately decorated sarcophagi before assembled media, the team revealed mummified remains wrapped in burial cloth that bore hieroglyphic inscriptions in bright colours.
What seems certain is that sophisticated 3D digital worlds will appear on ever more of the screens of successive generations of devices that people already use every day. As activities, particularly interactions between people, in virtual realities can generate practical and aesthetic outcomes that have moral consequences and personal meanings, the idea that the ârealâ world is limited to that which is physically present nearby will seem increasingly bizarre. What, after all, is real, anyway?
But people need to be kept at the centre of it.
