Researchers from Yale University have found a rocky planet, about 40 light years away from Earth, that is roughly twice the size of Earth and made primarily of granite and diamonds. With a surface temperature of approximately 3,900 degrees Fahrenheit, mining the diamonds is going to be a tough.
SpaceX’s Dragon cargo vessel launch was exciting and the engine flameout added a bit of drama to the historic event. Now we find out that more than an engine was lost in the mission. An Orbcomm communications satellite was riding in the “trunk” of the Falcon 9 rocket. The engine failure forced an early release…
Although Einstein’s theories suggest that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, two scientists have extended his equations to show what would happen if faster-than-light travel were possible. In effect, they propose that the universe is divided into two worlds – one where everything moves slower than the speed of light and the…
This video captured a remarkable scene where an octopus not only made quick work of the underwater food canister, but did so while fending off a pajama catshark with just one tentacle!
Advanced Industrial Science Technology (AIST) has created HRP-4C Miim, a female robot that walks like a human being (similar to ASIMO but prettier). Her knees are stretched by up/down motion of the waist, the single-toe supporting realizes longer strides, and she mimics the swing motion of human legs.
Apparently complex brains evolved much earlier than previously thought, as evidenced by a 520-million-year-old fossilized arthropod (the group that comprises crustaceans, arachnids and insects) that is the earliest fossil known to show a brain.
Psychological studies indicate that much can be gleaned from a person’s handshake, especially when it’s the first time you’ve met the person and are forming that oh-so-important first impression. Psychologists say a person forms their impression of you in the first 5-10 seconds after they meet you and that once formed in the person’s mind,…
In this video, Japanese astronaut, Dr. Takao Doi, throws a boomerang inside the International Space Station, in a zero-G environment. Before the experiment, they really were not sure what it would do, thinking it would probably spin up and away from the thrower, As it turns out, it acts pretty much the same as it…
Curiosity Rover scooped its first soil samples yesterday and while scooping, took a picture of something that NASA cannot identify. It’s a small, silver metallic looking chip or flake of some kind. It could be something left over from the MSL descent mechanisms or some previously unknown soil anomaly.
Liquid nitrogen boils at -196C, a characteristic that makes it pretty cool for oh, flash freezing alcoholic beverages and making cocktails give off a cloud of smoky vapor. That’s what Oscar’s Wine Bar in the United Kingdom puts in their drinks to give them that “cool” look. Until yesterday when Gaby Scanion, a teenager who…

Books from Geek Slop Publishing
Living Truth Bible Study Guides
Despite its beautiful prose, you can’t just read Revelation; it requires diligent study. However, ineffective study techniques can lead to misunderstandings. Rather than imposing strict interpretations on the described events, use the concepts we present as a framework for understanding its intricate code. The Book of Revelation indeed provides more than just a foretelling of the tumultuous end of days. It reassures Christians that divine justice will ultimately triumph over evil and promises Jesus' eventual return as the rightful king of the world.
Chronicles of Enigma
While science and reason often seek to illuminate the unknown, there remains a certain allure in the unexplained—a realm where imagination and reality blur, creating a tapestry rich with wonder and possibility. Stories from the Chronicles of Enigma series endure not just as relics of the past, but as gateways to exploring the depths of our curiosity and the infinite potential of our world. Let us be the light that guides you through the darkness.
