Greenies may find this news interesting. Astronomers using European Southern Observatory telescopes have announced that they have discovered 32 more planets, outside of our solar system. This brings the number of planets to more than 400. What is fascinating is that this gives evidence to theorists who say that there could be life outside of [...]

The RITI printer was invented by Korean Joen Hwan [...]
It’s been talked about and studied by astronomers and physicists for years. A number of Hollywood films have been made on the subject and the potential destruction that would happen should a mega-sized chunk of space rock, otherwise known as an asteroid, should ever collide with the earth. And theories are still coming out as [...]
