Excess energy will not be used, imagine that? This not only saves energy, but also enhances the Read more [...]

The other geniuses working on invisibility need to go on overdrive. The 4 inch-long bullet was invented by Red Jones and Brian Kast, who aside from Read more [...]

No, this is not a magic trick (nor is it Real Magic 😛 ): Sometimes I wonder why people use the phrase “when pigs fly” when they try to convey that something is impossible. Shouldn’t they say something like “when humans fly,” since scientists could one day genetically modify pigs to give them wings? You know, since it’s less likely for these scientists to do their experiments on human beings. Or have they already succeeded in doing so? Pictures don’t lie, but you aren’t Read more [...]

Has it ever happened to you that you have taken the perfect shot, just to realize that strangers have filled up the background? No, it doesn’t shoo away people nor will it magically fill in the background once you crop out a person or two. What it does is initially take a burst of shots in rapid succession.

Your kids might not have the same experience thanks to a research project at the University of Georgia Regenerative Bioscience Center.
