Grand Theft Auto IV Game Physics Video

Probably the most anticipated game for me in quite some time. It is going to prompt me to buy a PS3 I guess too as I haven’t really found a need to get one yet. Just kind of trying to decide if I want to wait for the MEtal Gear Solid bundle in June, or [...]

Huge Black Hole Catapults Out of Own Galaxy

For the first time in our history, astronomers have observed a colossal black hole being kicked out of its own galaxy. Scientists have theorized that it could happen, but have never witnessed such a phenomena before. Typically they suggest that the black holes of colliding galaxies tend to merge together, rather than being kicked out. [...]

Saliva May Be Able to Diagnose a Heart Attack

No more clutching your chest, or losing all feeling in your extremities to decide if you may be having a heart attack. A recent study suggests that your saliva may be able to diagnose a heart attack. A diagnosis of a heart attack may now be possible using only a few drops of saliva and [...]

How many gallons of water do you need to power a lightbulb?

Sounds like a mediocre Scientific Method, science project for a grade schooler doesn’t it? Well…I know you realize that there was probably a purpose to this question that had something to do with energy. It did.
According to the study: it takes between 3,000 gallons and 6,000 gallons of water to power a 60-watt incandescent bulb [...]

Sugar gets us rolling, why not cars?
Chemists are describing development of a “revolutionary” process for converting plant sugars into hydrogen, which could be used to cheaply and efficiently power vehicles equipped with hydrogen fuel cells without producing any pollutants.
The method is being described as the most efficient method for creating hydrogen ever introduced. Of [...]

McGoogahoosoft Space

I was reading an article on CNET earlier about all the crazy new merge names they were coming up with to describe the landscape of the battle for Yahoo!, and the Lord of the Web and it gave me a headache. So I popped a couple of pills and decided that I like my name [...]

Solar Tsunamis to Kill Us All

Images of a tsunami blasting its way through the sun’s lower atmosphere have been taken for the first time. Do they pose a danger to us? No…lol
Well maybe not. Who the heck knows? These videos were released recently that show the solar tsunamis have helped astronomers get an idea as to their speed. It is [...]

Panspermia and Exogenesis

I have heard of Panspermia and always found it to be an interesting theory, but upon reading more about it I had found that it sort of transcends its meaning.
Panspermia:
Panspermia (Gk. πάς/πάν (pas/pan, all) σπέρμα (sperma, seed)) is the hypothesis that “seeds” of life exist already all over the Universe, that life on Earth [...]

Feed the Cold

Researchers of have discovered that an old adage is actually correct for once. Researchers studying deer mice have discovered evidence to support what mothers everywhere have long suspected: the immune system needs food to function properly. In a new study Lynn Martin and coauthors find that reduced food intake leads to a decline in immune [...]
