Water on Mars PICTURED: ESA shares incredible IMAGES of Martian ice crater
Posted by Michael Lance in categories: futurism, space
HUGE skating rink?
The European Space Agency has shared an incredible composite image showing a 50-mile wide crater on Mars that is filled with water ice all year long.
Budding future colonists hoping for a white Christmas on Mars will be somewhat disappointed as the ESA has confirmed that sitting in the Korolev crater is, in fact, a thick block of water ice, not snow. The enormous, 82-kilometer-wide, 2-kilometer-deep “ice trap” could still be good for ice skating though.

World Population Might Go to 40 Billion by 2150 But We Can Already Feed All Those People
Posted by Montie Adkins in category: futurism
Well that’s good news.
I see several parts to the problem where many people believe the doomer overpopulation myths.
The fear story resonates with deep caveman fears of starvation. Any individual person can experience hunger. This reinforces and validates the fear of potential starvation.

Posted by Steve Hill in categories: futurism, life extension
The topic for the December Journal Club will be the recently published paper – Fisetin is a senotherapeutic that extends health and lifespan. This commonly available supplement and a plant-based polyphenol appears to influence the aging process in mice by clearing senescent cells, one of the suggested reasons we age.
