In the next five years, there are a number of developing technologies that have the potential to have a substantial impact on our everyday lives. Some examples of this are as follows:

An unknown caller rings Dom and a strong alto-esque voice emerges from the phone. “Hello, is this Dominiq Tesfah?” “Speaking?...”
Curtain Call
The outside world was unknown to her, but she could see a glimpse of it through the window in his room. She had looked outside of the window for the last week, but Valarie Meddler had no idea that it had only been a week. She starred at the window with her soft, almost ice-colored blue eyes. Her black hair shone of the lighting in the room that was as soft as her eyes, the atmosphere of the place almost a warm, inviting thing.

If you point your telescope or binocular toward the central bulge of the Milky Way in Sagittarius constellation, you will see several fuzzy objects. Some of them are actually vast clouds of hot ionized gas and dust called emission nebulae. Also knows as "stellar nurseries", these are where new stars born.

The history of sending animals into space began on the day when the V2 rocket constructed by Wernher von Braun carried fruit flies to an altitude of 109 km. This happened on February 20, 1947, at the rocket range in White Sands, USA.
Fire in the Mist
Rain pelted the sea of smokey slated landscape of parts from a bygone era. Heaths of appliances to what once held actual sustenance; scavenged quantum cyborgs discarded by their more evolved successors; a city populated by garbage and the air annexed by the pungent lithium sulfur. By this time though, Max was already used to it. Your lungs become accustomed to the burning sensation in your chest that the sparse P22 masks can barely filter. Your skin varies depending on your exposure from hard and scaly to gaping worn pores from irritation. Very rarely one will come across a pristine human. Max met a human only once and they were from another colony on the neighbouring planet visiting to tour salvage sites across the planet. Making adverts for their colony stating that this planet was to be used as a recycling facility and that the people that worked here are patrons of planet Aurea. Their colony left ours over three centuries ago, promised to come back for them only never to be seen again… Until they came back to use their planet as a dumpster. Max’s late husband had only been to the Aurean colony once to make a delivery under the dull overseer, Ram Ake, whom was only appointed after a coup by a betraying opposition. Max’s husband, Nojah returned back from his trip, ‘It’s polished shit.’ he told Max matter-of-factly.
ARTEMIS I ON ITS WAY BACK HOME
Growing up during the Space Race, there was a final ritual to which we all looked forward. After an American space capsule carrying astronauts re-entered the atmosphere, it deployed its parachutes and landed in the Pacific Ocean.
David Morton RintoulPublished about a year ago in FuturismOn duality.
Here and there. Nowhere and everywhere. Yin & yang. Good and bad. Light and dark. Virtuous and evil. Sadness and happiness. Lack and abundance. Fun and boredom. One mind. Different wirings within. A void. Abyss. As if you vanished into the ether. But there you live again. Astral projection into the cosmos. Creation. Destruction. Imagination. A whole new world. One made of infinite possibilities. Shapes. Colours. Rainbows and unicorns. Worries fading away. Transcendence. Yin. Finding yourself without ever being within yourself. Silence. Stillness. Inner peace. Breaking through all thoughts and illusions. Satori. Enlightenment.
Project Hail Mary is a fucking masterpiece
Ok, listen. If you have not read this book by Andy Weir, notable author of the stellar novel The Martian, stop reading right now. The Martian was incredible in its own right, absolutely, and it brought me to this novel which I will forever be grateful, but I'd rather trek over hot coals than ruin the magic of Project Hail Mary.

As you can imagine, I was rather surprised to learn that one of the Elon Musk fanboy groups, in this case, Elon Musk Evolution, issued a veiled challenge to me on Youtube. Now, I already have a challenge in the works - that I'll get time travel to the past to work in order to evacuate people from here to the distant past in an operation we call Earth:12KB4 before Elon can get people to the planet Mars. I expect that we'll be able to achieve the required breakthrough next year. Recently, Musk announced he was delaying a SpaceX launch to Mars back to 2029. I have Elon in a strategic "check" because as long as I have a breakthrough before 2029, he loses and he can't deny our competition because that would mean he's not going try to get Mars. This proves that he is not focused on the threats to the future that he claimed to be.

There is something about parenthood that gives us a sense of history and a deeply rooted desire to send on into the next generation the great things we have discovered about life. And part of that is the desire to instill in our children the love of science, of learning and particularly the love of nature.
ARTEMIS I ON ITS WAY TO THE MOON
Like every kid my age, I built a scale model of the Saturn V rocket back in the early 70s. We were all glued to our television sets as NASA sent nine crewed missions to the moon in those years.
