- what is information? particles?
the information abounding going particles is returned by a chaotic 'and useless' *** this resolves the information paradox.uan - for all practical purposes the information is lost.

Mummified monk found inside 1,000-year-old Buddha statue
The CT scan and endoscopy revealed more than just the mummified remains of Liuquan. Samples of a material that has yet to be identified were taken from the thoracic and abdominal cavities, and something else extraordinary was discovered: in the spaces once occupied by organs, the team found scraps of paper scribed with ancient Chinese characters.

- In some way these guys were trying to reach out beyond their life and into some greater beyond. Documenting this does that in a way.jtb26

I have no idea if it is science (yet), but Randall Carlson is claiming it is, also that India and France govs are looking into it.
Some kind of modern take on old 20th century 0 point energy stuff with new discoveries and applications...
will be amazing if real:

A new peptide may hold potential as an Alzheimer’s treatment.
The peptide blocks a hyperactive brain enzyme that contributes to the neurodegeneration seen in Alzheimer’s and other diseases
MIT neuroscientists have found a way to reverse neurodegeneration and other symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease by interfering with an enzyme that is typically overactive in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients.

From the book Biocentrism by Robert Lanza
In reality, recent experiments show conclusively that the brain’s electrochemical connections, its neural impulses traveling at 240 miles per hour, cause decisions to be made faster than we are even aware of them. In other words, the brain and mind, too, operate all by itself, without any need for external meddling by our thoughts, which also incidentally occur by themselves. So control, too, is largely an illusion. As Einstein put it, “We can will ourselves to act, but we cannot will ourselves to will.”
The most cited experiment in this field was conducted a quarter-century ago. Researcher Benjamin Libet asked subjects to choose a random moment to perform a hand motion while hooked up to an electroencephalograph (EEG) monitor in which the so-called “readiness potential” of the brain was being monitored. Naturally, electrical signals always precede actual physical actions, but Libet wanted to know whether they also preceded a subject’s subjective feeling of intention to act. In short, is there some subjective “self ” who consciously decides things, thereby setting in motion the brain’s electrical activities that ultimately lead to the action? Or is it the other way ’round? Subjects were therefore asked to note the position of a clock’s second hand when they first felt the initial intention to move their hand.
Libet’s findings were consistent, and perhaps not surprising: unconscious, unfelt, brain electrical activity occurred a full half second before there was any conscious sense of decision-making by the subject. More recent experiments by Libet, announced in 2008, analyzing separate, higher-order brain functions, have allowed his research team to predict up to ten seconds in advance which hand a subject is about to decide to raise. Ten seconds is nearly an eternity when it comes to cognitive decisions, and yet a person’s eventual decision could be seen on brain scans that long before the subject was even remotely aware of having made any decision. This and other experiments prove that the brain makes its own decisions on a subconscious level, and people only later feel that “they” have performed a conscious decision. It means that we go through life thinking that, unlike the blessedly autonomous operations of the heart and kidneys, a lever-pulling “me” is in charge of the brain’s workings. Libet concluded that the sense of personal free will arises solely from a habitual retrospective perspective of the ongoing flow of brain events.

Here we show that wheat grown on a single hectare of land in a 10-layer indoor vertical facility could produce from 700 ± 40 t/ha (measured) to a maximum of 1,940 ± 230 t/ha (estimated) of grain annually under optimized temperature, intensive artificial light, high CO2 levels, and a maximum attainable harvest index. Such yields would be 220 to 600 times the current world average annual wheat yield of 3.2 t/ha. Independent of climate, season, and region, indoor wheat farming could be environmentally superior, as less land area is needed along with reuse of most water, minimal use of pesticides and herbicides, and no nutrient losses. Although it is unlikely that indoor wheat farming will be economically competitive with current market prices in the near future, it could play an essential role in hedging against future climate or other unexpected disruptions to the food system.
- I think the amount of infrastructure needed to be built to compete with the millions of acres of farmland would be an environmental disaster alone.zarkonite
- I don't think it's meant to compete or replace, but there are definite advantages/savings when you consider these can be built in urban areas.i_monk

Science ranks grow thin in Trump administration
Dozens of government computers sit in a nondescript building here, able to connect to a data model that could help farmers manage the impact of a changing climate on their crops.
But no one in this federal agency would know how to access the model, or, if they did, what to do with the data.
That’s because the ambitious federal researcher who created it in Washington quit rather than move when the Agriculture Department relocated his agency to an office park here last fall.
He is one of hundreds of scientists across the federal government who have been forced out, sidelined or muted since President Trump took office.
The exodus has been fueled broadly by administration policies that have diminished the role of science as well as more specific steps, such as the relocation of agencies away from the nation’s capital.

David Talbot narrates a doc on the great space theorist Velikovsky. This is quite stellar summary of his book Worlds in Collision. Using ancient art, religious texts and ancient myths to come up with his theories, Einstein loved this guy, as he theorised space was electrical not momentum and gravity. It's so hard to explain his ideas of how are solar system has been rearranged and witnessed and documented by man and that the earth has recovered incredibly quick from numerous cataclysms of shifting planets in the sky—all happening and witnessed, even as recent as the age of Egyptians. IMO, pretty cool stuff. What space science is discovering over the years, almost all of Velikovsky's theories have been turning out correct!

- If you look up the word pseudoscience this guys name literally shows up. His theories are considered the best example of bullshit science in modern history.monospaced
- Not a single one of his theories has been proven true. All science in the areas show he is the exact opposite of reality.monospaced
- I understand you don't approve but have you ever thought maybe other might be interested in the theory of an electric universe? Part 2 is beautiful BTWrobotron3k
- I’m not saying you shouldn’t post it or people can’t be interested. I’m saying it’s not science and that it’s absolute crazy bullshit nonsense.monospaced

Human Footprints Found In Greece Almost 6-Million-Years-Old, Could Challenge Theories Of Human Evolution
A new discovery of early human footprints in Greece doesn’t just stand out because the footprints are said to be close to 6-million-years-old. Instead, it’s because of where the footprints were spotted, as the findings could challenge the accepted theory that humanity began in Africa and didn’t spread out to other continents until millions of years later.
