Rare animals have been sitting in glass jars on museum shelves across the world for decades, but very little is often known about these specimens. And many people would say that is exactly where they belong: on a shelf, as an object of the past simply to be remembered and admired from afar. However, a […]

Imagine a swarm of genetically-engineered cyborg insects capable of flying around undetected while engaging in spying and other activities on behalf of government intelligence, the military or law enforcement agencies – or for that matter, a foreign power or terrorist organization. It may sound like science fiction, but the technology is real, and it’s very […]

For generations, scientists and the public alike have been fascinated by the tantalizing possibility that there may have once been intelligent humanoid-type creatures living on the planet we know as Mars. Until we reached the mysterious planet with our probes and rovers in the last few decades, all of this was mere speculation. But now […]

A just-released book is a must-read for everyone who has even suspected that the federal government has engaged in political chicanery for the sake of pushing a narrow agenda. As reported by The Daily Caller, the new book, “Scare Pollution,” documents how the Environmental Protection Agency has been basing its job-and-opportunity-killing air pollution regulations on […]

Ever heard of metabolic brain disease? A team of nine scientists from top Egyptian medical schools and universities may have just confirmed that one in every 50 American children has it, and its primary cause could be mercury in vaccines.

Benjamin Franklin once said, “Being ignorant is not so much a shame, as being unwilling to learn.” With regard to thimerosal (mercury) in childhood vaccines, we have yet to heed Mr. Franklin’s words. This beyond-mandatory debate about the most toxic non-radioactive element on earth being used as a preservative in vaccines is past due. Robert […]

For about a decade, scientists have been able to detect fast radio bursts (FRBs), elusive and powerful flashes that last only a few milliseconds. In that time, only 18 FRBs have been detected. Now, for the first time ever, researchers have isolated the source of several FRBs. They are coming from a dwarf galaxy that […]

The gene editing technology known as CRISPR-Cas9 has been a subject of controversy ever since it was developed. CRISPR -Cas9 gives scientists the ability to conduct genome editing with a quickness and ease never seen before. Regardless of the inherent concerns that come along with gene editing, this technology has undoubtedly changed the world of […]

A driver in Nevada found that relying too much on so-called advantages of technology can leave you in a bind. Ryan Negri was driving his Tesla Model S, which promotes keyless entry and a smartphone app that allows you to unlock and start your car from your phone through either Apple or Android apps. To […]

Scientists have made a startling discovery in laboratory mice that someday could be used to turn humans into killing machines. As reported by National Public Radio (NPR), researchers discovered how to make mice kill at the flip of a switch, essentially, adding that may reveal how hunting behaviors evolved hundreds of millions of years ago. […]

When the TV shows The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman were popular in the 1970s, it seemed that the futuristic bionic body parts and abilities of the leading characters, Steve Austin and Jaime Sommers, were just figments of the script writers’ imaginations. Well, the future is now and imagination has become reality, because […]

(NaturalNews) The United Kingdom’s Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) has formally approved the use of techniques that produce human beings with DNA from three separate people. The biotechnology is intended to enable the healthy birth of babies who would otherwise die from a group of inherited diseases that result in poorly functioning mitochondria. The […]

If you like to display the peace sign when posing for pictures or selfies, there’s a new strategy you should employ, effective immediately.
