Just to pour some cold water on the whole EM Drive thing:
Don't Get Too Excited About NASA's New Miracle Engine Nothing to refute the claims really, but a healthy dose of scepticism.

Some more exciting science, this time from IBM:
https://www-03.ibm.com/press/us/en/p...ease/46725.wss The TL;DR is basically IBM have found a method of error correct both kinds of errors in q-bits at the same time whereas previously it was only possible to correct one or the other. A major breakthrough apparently.

Things are going well with the Wendelstein 7-X.
Just an early plasma test. There are a couple of pics inside of the plasma chamber in the article worth looking at.

I'm pretty sure someone could make some kind of humanities vs hard sciences dig if they made the effort. Anyone got anything?

Awesome video.
I did a double take when I saw "©The University of Auckland" scroll across. Feynman's comment about NZers being down on themselves was classic. I love the way he not only describes the theory, but also the frame of understanding the theory fits in.

Ray Kurzweil asserts that by any sane measurement we are now seeing a 20th-century's worth of sci-tech development every ten years, and that it will presumably soon be every nine years. Then eight.

TLDR? "Unnamed sources" claim scientists are about to announce discovery of an Earthlike planet orbiting in the Goldilocks zone of, get this, PROXIMA FUCKING CENTAURI. 4.35 ly away. That's reachable with 20th-century tech, let alone stuff we might come up with in the near future. |
