„This could be the beginning of a scientific revolution.” Theory of Everything Scientists are doubling down on a peculiar model that attempts to quantify and measure consciousness. The model, known as Integrated Information Theory (IIT), has long been controversial because it comes with an unusual quirk. When applied to non-living…

Free Energy wireless distributed Wireless communications Insight for mankind to thrive, or to diminish into tragic loss of light Unfinished masterpiece to increase human energy Limitless quantity of energy Already about 120 years ago, the world could have been lit up for free, by the advancements of genius Nikola Tesla, if he was…

In brief: • The Facts: A new study claims to have found an explanation for dark matter, but relies on the discovery of a particle which leads to another dimension. • Reflect On: How do discoveries shift our understanding of reality and perhaps, who we are? Can a journey down the rabbit hole of non-material science cause understanding of…

Ancient Babylonian land surveyors developed their own form of trigonometry 1,000 years before the Greeks. Daniel Mansfield – a senior lecturer at the University of New South Wales – takes a closer look at the intriguing mathematical genius of the Babylonians. Our modern understanding of trigonometry harks back to ancient Greek…

Letter by Albert Einstein, validated by The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where Einstein bequeathed his notes, letters and records. The 1949 letter by the physicist and Nobel laureate discusses bees, birds and whether new physics principles could come from studying animal senses. It's a position still being realized within…

Researchers at MIT and elsewhere have significantly boosted the output from a system that can extract drinkable water directly from the air even in dry regions, using heat from the sun or another source. The system, which builds on a design initially developed three years ago at MIT by members of the same team, brings the process…

Over 100 years ago, Nikola Tesla figured out technologies that we today are still unable to understand. In the late 1800s, Nikola Tesla talked about antigravity technology, flying saucers powered by specific Tesla Coils and ‘Ether’ which was acted upon by the life-giving creative force. “I have worked out a dynamic theory of gravity in…

Sailing through the smooth waters of vacuum, a photon of light moves at around 300,000 kilometers (186,000 miles) a second. This sets a firm limit on how quickly a whisper of information can travel anywhere in the Universe. While this law isn’t likely to ever be broken, there are features of light which don’t play by the same…

The ability to control different aspects and activities with magnetic fields is no longer restricted to the mischief of comic book villains. Using synthetic biology to figure out just what neurons do has always been a tricky task, because it has been limited by requiring invasive surgery (optogenetics) or slow on-off kinetics (drugs). But…

It has been detected previously that animals shed DNA, known as environmental DNA (eDNA), from their bodies into the environment. It was also previously detected in water, snow and soil, but not in the air. Now, scientists have found that human and animal DNA can be collected from air too. Scientists said this study can prove…
