Buccaneering billionaire polymath Elon Musk is obviously one smart cookie. So why do his old school friends insist he wasn’t the cleverest kid in class, or that the future Tesla boss was fundamentally “unspectacular” back then?
The Connection Between Tesla’s New Phone Model Pi And Neuralink: So Elon has been one busy boy lately, from his incredible Twitter Poll the other day, to the subsequent selling of nearly 5billion in Tesla Shares. But one announcement that went under the radar updates to the rumored Tesla Pi.
So why would you want a phone from Tesla, well the same reason people have an iPhone with their iMac and their iWatch and their iTV sorry Apple TV…it’s the ecosystem, it’s the seamless transition.
Except we now going from your phone to your car, to a satellite to potentially directly to your brain. Now it’s still early days so information is scarce on exactly what will be included, however, information has leaked recently about possible features and I am excited.
Ever feel like you could do with a little guidance? A push in the right direction? Over the past couple thousand years or so, humans have often turned to religious texts to help get them through life’s trickier moments… but is science and technology now triggering a major paradigm shift? In this video, Unveiled takes a closer look at the reasons why we might soon… need a new Bible!
This is Unveiled, giving you incredible answers to extraordinary questions!
The Moon awaits. After long decades in which no human being set foot on the lunar surface, we are heading back. And quite soon.
As part of the NASA-led Artemis program, astronauts are returning to the lunar environment as soon as 2024, with a view to ultimately establishing a long-term human presence on the Moon – a place we haven’t seen in person since 1972.
To live and work on the Moon, though, astronauts will need power and plenty of it, and there’s no power grid on the Moon.
On Saturday, Astra announced via Twitter that its LV0007 mission reached orbit from the Astra Spaceport in Kodiak, Alaska. The rocket, which carried a payload for the United States Space Force, took off at 1:16 a.m. Eastern time. The feat earned the praise of SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, who wrote on Twitter: “Congrats! Orbit is not easy.”
The milestone means Astra is one of a handful of private companies to successfully develop an orbital rocket. Following the launch Astra declared itself “the first rocket company to reach orbit in less than five years.”

What are the quantum technologies that are now attracting so much research funding? In this video I go through the most important ones: quantum computing, quantum metrology, the quantum internet, and quantum simulations. I explain what these are all about and how likely they are to impact our lives soon. I also tell you what frequently headline blunders to watch out for.
The White House report I mention at 10 mins 34 seconds is here:
New DNA tests suggest the owner of a British fertility clinic may have fathered as many as 600 children, while keeping his donations a secret. And in an even stranger twist, one of his newly discovered offspring says the man’s belief in eugenics may have been behind the decision.
The Telegraph reports that Bertold Wiesner and his wife operated a fertility clinic in the 1940s and were responsible for helping more than 1,500 families conceive. Two of the children conceived through clinic donations, Barry Stevens and David Gollancz, took part in DNA testing that revealed both were conceived using Wiesner’s sperm.
“Using standard figures for the number of live births which result, including allowances for twins and miscarriages, I estimate that he is responsible for between 300 and 600 children,” Gollancz told the paper.
