A SPACESHIP which is so fast it could travel 3.6 million miles per day has been successfully tested in Earth orbit.
The scientists who came up with the theory of supergravity in the 1970s are $3 million richer.
The trio, physicists Sergio Ferrara, Daniel Z. Freedman and Peter van Nieuwenhuizen, won the Special Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics, according to a statement Wednesday.
Supergravity is described in the prize announcement as a theory in which, “quantum variables are part of the description of the geometry of spacetime.”

Nikola Tesla was an inventor who obtained around 300 patents[1] worldwide for his inventions. Some of Tesla’s patents are not accounted for, and various sources have discovered some that have lain hidden in patent archives. There are a minimum of 278 patents[1] issued to Tesla in 26 countries that have been accounted for. Many of Tesla’s patents were in the United States, Britain, and Canada, but many other patents were approved in countries around the globe.[2] Many inventions developed by Tesla were not put into patent protection.

The Academy is comprised of an elite group of world-renowned researchers, scientists and clinicians, all united toward making breakthroughs in longevity both accelerated & accessible.
Think that robots need to be the size of a dog or even a full-grown person to be exciting? Not so, as the fast-developing field of micro-robotics demonstrates. As it turns out, in some cases the world’s most innovative robots may even be too small for many of us to see.

Turn.bio is based on the scientific breakthrough work at Stanford of Vittorio Sebastiano, Jay Sarkar, and Marco Quarta. They are now leading the team to develop therapies that return mature differentiated cells to a dramatically younger state leaving their differentiated identity unaltered. Congrats!
