Integration of extraterrestrials in society
By: T. Scott Randolph
To hardcore non believers in UFOs or that alien lifeforms could exist would be considered completely impossible, this question would be completely ridiculous. If the aliens don't exist, how could they possibly live among us (or may in the future). No matter how it has...

In this largely male-dominated world, the role of women in science and technology throughout history has been largely overlooked. Nevertheless, without the contributions of these women, lives as people know them today would likely be very different. Any discussion of women in science likely begins...

What is an afterimage?
By: Lane Olinghouse
Just about everyone has experienced them. Afterimages occur after a person has stared fixedly for several seconds at an image, a bright light or an especially vivid pattern. When the person directs his or her gaze to another area, a ghost image of the object...

Imagine that you're sitting outside on a sunny, cloudless day. You look up at a flock of sparrows that's passing through your backyard, and as you follow them you accidentally look at the sun. The intense light blinds you for just a second, and as...

By: Bo del Ransi

Every time you go outside to smoke, have a bonfire, or simply light up a nasty note that mean old lady in church wrote to you, chances are you are using one of the greatest inventions ever made. Yes, the lighter. A device that has...
