NASA move could help the International Space Station stay in orbit without Russia

Posted by in category: space

NORTHRUP GRUMMAN’S CYGNUS cargo spacecraft conducted a successful reboost of the International Space Station on Saturday, June 25, 2022.


“This Cygnus mission is the first to feature this enhanced capability as a standard service for NASA.”

Cygnus had been docked to the ISS since February and now has departed, leaving on June 28.

Watch the live stream of the launch of Run 3 on CERN’s internal screens or on social media!

Posted by in categories: futurism, particle physics

A mere day after the 10th anniversary of the discovery of the Higgs boson celebrations at CERN, the LHC will make the promise of a bright future for particle physics a reality, breaking a new energy world record of 13.6 trillion electron volts (13.6 TeV) in its first stable-beam collisions. These collisions will mark the start of data taking for the new physics season, called Run 3.

The launch of the LHC Run 3 will be streamed live on CERN’s social media channels and by high-quality Eurovision satellite link on 5 July starting at 4 p.m. Live commentary in five languages (English, French, German, Italian and Spanish) from the CERN Control Centre will walk you through the operation stages that take proton beams from their injection into the LHC to collision points. A live Q&A session with experts from the accelerators and experiments will conclude the live stream.

For those on site at CERN, the live will be broadcast on the screens in the three CERN restaurants with English subtitles. If you need to take an afternoon coffee break, think 4 p.m!

A gentler, more precise laser cutting technique

Posted by in categories: energy, materials

Laser cutting techniques are usually powered by high energy beams, so hot that they melt most materials. Now scientists from McGill University have developed a gentler, more precise technique using low-power visible light.

‘Cognitive Immobility’ — When You’re Mentally Trapped in a Place From Your Past

Posted by in categories: habitats, neuroscience

Summary: Cognitive immobility is a form of mental entrapment that leads to conscious or unconscious efforts to recreate past instances in familiar locations.

Source: The Conversation.

If you have moved from one country to another, you may have left something behind – be it a relationship, a home, a feeling of safety or a sense of belonging. Because of this, you will continually reconstruct mental simulations of scenes, smells, sounds and sights from those places – sometimes causing stressful feelings and anxiety.

New Quantum Camera Capable of Snapping Photos of ‘Ghosts’

Posted by in categories: electronics, quantum physics

Circa 2020


By utilizing a process that Einstein famously called “spooky,” scientists have successfully caught “ghosts” on film for the first time using quantum cameras.

The “ghosts” captured on camera weren’t the kind you might first think; scientists didn’t discover the wandering lost souls of our ancestors. Rather, they were able to capture images of objects from photons that never actually encountered the objects pictured. The technology has been dubbed “ghost imaging,” reports National Geographic.

A Biodegradable Spray Applied to Fresh Produce Could Eliminate a Lot of Foodborne Illnesses and Plastic Packaging

Posted by in categories: futurism, sustainability

That’s not a Faberge egg on the right. It is an avocado sprayed with an antimicrobial fibre to keep the produce from rotting and could become the future way we preserve fruit and vegetables.


Naturally occurring pullulan fibres with antimicrobial agents when sprayed on test avocados proves better than plastic packaging.
