Researchers have developed a new method for measuring the mass of pulsars, even if a star exists on its own in space.

'Electric Sails' Could Propel Superfast Spacecraft by 2025
Robotic spacecraft may ride the solar wind toward interstellar space at unprecedented speeds a decade or so from now.
Researchers are developing an "electric sail" (e-sail) propulsion system that would harness the solar wind, the stream of protons, electrons and other charged particles that flows outward from the sun at more than 1 million mph (1.6 million kilometers per hour).

Who new that 'Magic' might not be available for much longer on our glorious NHS. Next they'll be stopping the psychic surgery.

The 12 days that will decide Earth's future.
A guide to the COP21 climate talks- more to do with politics than real science but hey.yurimon
- also religion is involved.uan
- sigh, no mention of methane gas rising from the oceans as bigger threat. guess you cant tax the oceans.yurimon
- tax is good trigger for the industries to adopt measures. they got plenty of time to do it voluntary, now they need a financial gain impulse.uan
- the methane thing is due to the unfreezing of permafrost, it's related to the ongoing warming of the planet.uan
- these measure still based on control of energy, check out the movie gashole.yurimon
- n this https://www.youtube.…yurimon
- I don't get your point.
yes, graphs are being exaggerated, we know that. check the co2 in atmosphere graph...that one is not exaggerated and is real.uan - the deforestation of the planet. real.
do we have alternatives by now? yes, some of them and they are getting better. it's time to implement them.uan - the oil industry is probably to blame for not investing enough in this clean energy technologies for decades.uan

- Gashole is fantastic. I don't know for sure any way but stopping conscious mass pollution can only be a good thing, even if it's not the/only cause.MrT
