What’s NASA up to now? The closer we look at this mad science experiment, the more we can see a bigger, hidden ugly picture.
Our Moon is extremely important to our Earth and our survival. It acts as a flywheel/stabilizer for Earth’s non-spherical shape. Simulations show that without the Moon oceans would become dead [...]

A police scanner reminscent of the hi-tech gadgets in films such as Robocop which can detect weapons hidden beneath a criminal’s clothing has been developed.
The lightweight handheld unit uses high frequency microwaves to see through clothes and pick up “reflections” of concealed guns or knives from a distance of several metres.
Intelligent software then interprets [...]
