Organizations and movements looking to create change sometimes find difficulty in gaining the funding needed to realize their projects. Many have found diverse manners of raising funds from using innovative websites like Kickstarter and Indiegogo, which work through offering perks and giving people a
A collaboration between Sun Yat-sen University in China, and the University of Minnesota Duluth, have developed a mesoporous piezoelectric nanogenerator which transforms mechanical force into electric energy. This removes the need for any form of charging cord, and can allow electronics to charge themselves.
I recently attended the 2014 cold fusion IAP course at MIT in Cambridge, MA put together by Dr. Peter Hagelstein and Dr. Mitchell Swartz. Complete films of those lectures as well as last year’s lectures from Jan 2013 are available on ColdfusionNow.org and on
This brief presentation, by Professor Andrea Morello, awarded the 2013 Malcolm McIntosh prize for physical science, is one of several available on youtube. The process relies on the laws of themodynamics and principles of quantum physics: he can explain far better than I ever
The existence of extra-terrestrial life is, statistically, almost guaranteed. The biological necessities for life are not as quite as specific as often portrayed, with extremophile organisms surviving everything extreme ionizing radiation and drying (in Tardigrades) to reproducing in freezing temperatures (Colwellia p.). The “habitable zone”
The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Project(HAARP), known for it’s Ionospheric Research Instrument(IRI), is a High Frequency(HF) antenna array using radio transmission as a manner of heating atmospheric layers. With it’s 18 different instruments HAARP performs ionospheric research by means of transmitting and receiving
Most of us are aware that our phones contain a GPS (Global Positioning System) chips, but how much can they really track our cellular mobile phones?
