The world’s largest crystal cave
Posted in futurism
In abandoned silver mine in Pulpí, in Spain’s south-eastern Almería Province, lies a treasure that’s not made from any precious metal at all. Instead, what’s hidden here is the world’s largest geode – a natural crystal phenomenon that has stunned scientists.
As Mila Carretero, geologist and coordinator of the Pulpí Geode, explained, a geode is a cavity inside a rock that is covered with crystals. Sitting against a backdrop of oversized crystal spars, she broke open a tiny rock with tiny gems inside, to show a comparison. “It’s the same as the one I have behind me, only this one is a super-sized version,” she said with a laugh as she pointed over her shoulder.
The Pulpí Geode is eight metres wide, two metres high and two metres deep. “When it comes to a geode, by definition, this is the biggest ever discovery,” she noted, adding that Pulpí is not to be confused with another crystal marvel, the Naica Mine in Mexico, which has larger spars (15m long compared to Pulpí’s two metres), but which is a cave lined with crystals rather than a geode.

“Carbon matches 100% of the performance of C++ and aims to provide a significantly better developer experience,” Kaggle master and senior data scientist Mark Tenenholtz tweeted.
This is mainly because Carbon reduces existing libraries’ tech debt and makes extending those libraries easier.

One case involved a man with cancer who underwent a specialized stem cell transplant; the other involved a woman who received immune-boosting therapies as part of a clinical trial.
China decided not to guide the booster back through the atmosphere and it’s not clear exactly when or where it will come down to Earth. While it will largely burn up on return, there remains a slight risk of fragments causing damage or casualties.
According to researchers at The Aerospace Corporation “there is a non-zero probability of the surviving debris landing in a populated area—over 88 percent of the world’s population lives under the reentry’s potential debris footprint.”
While China is not alone in such practices, the size of the Long March rocket stage has drawn particular scrutiny.
Medics are on alert for cases of the rare infection that cause can be serious and even deadly to some people.
Academics have created a vaccine which has the potential to protect humans from the infection melioidosis, also called Whitmore’s disease.
The vaccine is the result of two decades of research, and is the most protective tested to date.
Melioidosis is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei. It is thought to be spread in soil and dust, but experts do not yet know why it only affects people and animals in tropical regions. Occasionally people from the UK have contracted melioidosis while on holiday abroad.
NASA’s Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) prototype recently endured the most realistic tests to-date of its ability to drive through the most difficult terrain during its mission to the Moon’s South Pole.
Quantum computers, devices that exploit quantum phenomena to perform computations, could eventually help tackle complex computational problems faster and more efficiently than classical computers. These devices are commonly based on basic units of information known as quantum bits, or qubits.
