Atom by atom, we can have it all

Imagine owning a small device, the size of a microwave oven, that can create anything you can think of. With the push of a button, you can have a new pair of shoes, food, a new mobile phone, or anything of your liking. It sounds like science fiction, but it will soon be a reality, thanks to nanotechnology. The personal fabricator will build any object from the atom up.

From global to cosmic climate change

It has been a couple of overcast days in this area. Looking up at the sky, I realized that I would look at clouds differently from now on. My perspective about them has expanded to a view where much larger factors are at play, after watching a documentary explaining how cloud formation is influenced by cosmic rays and the solar system orbiting around the galaxy.
Danish scientist Henrik Svensmark has challenged ... Continue reading...

The standards of beauty change with the passing of time. What was considered beautiful centuries ago, would be way less appealing in our society. Think of the beautiful women of flemish painter Peter Paul Rubens, that by today’s standards, with our media promoting anorexia, would be rather obese and cellulite ridden.
The basic concept, however, remains the same, from the times of ancient Greek sculptors. That is, harmony. ... Continue reading...

Family, friends, pets, you name it.
