Scientists from the USA and Greece are returning to the site where the Antikythera Mechanism, the world’s oldest computing device, was found in 1901. The Antikythera Mechanism was an apparatus of interlocking gears that was dated to 100 BC.
Oceanographers at Texas A&M University have warned that the millions of pounds of unexploded bombs scattered throughout the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, pose serious threats to the shipping lanes that run through those regions. Discarded military ordnance, including one thousand pound bombs the size of file cabinets and chemical weapons…
Gravity Probe B is a satellite-based, relativity gyroscope experiment that launched in 2004 for the purpose of measuring the space-time curvature near Earth in order to test Einstein’s theory of general relativity. The experiment was to check, very precisely, tiny changes in the spin and angle of four gyroscopes contained in a highly sophisticated housing…
Russian astronomers have discovered a comet, named C/2012 S1, which is heading our way. It is scheduled to fly by Earth in December 2013. It is expected to be the brightest visitor to our solar system in over a century. Astronomers believe the comet will be considerably brighter than Halley’s Comet (1986) and Hale-Bopp (1997)…
After nine years of searching, a group of Japanese researchers may have finally done it. Researchers in Japan have reported that they have created an atom of element 113, an element with 113 protons and 165 neutrons in its nucleus.
Over the course of five years, beginning in December 2012, DECam will survey one-eighth of the sky (20 times larger than the full moon), image more than 300 million galaxies, 100,000 galaxy clusters, and 4,000 supernovae, the bright dying throes of stars.
If you place two metronomes on a stationary board and start them out of sync, they will remain out of sync forever. But if the board is placed on two rollers, so that the movement of the metronomes can be transferred through the moveable board, each metronome’s movement will affect the movement of the other…
NASA announced today (on the evening of Sol 51), that Curiosity Rover has found evidence of an ancient flowing stream on Mars at a few sites. Round-shaped rocks, called clasts, have lead Geologists to the conclusion that they have been moved about by water. The clasts are too heavy to have been moved by wind.
The April 11, 2012 series of Earthquakes in Indonesia may have been a bigger event than originally thought – they may have broken the tectonic plate. The largest of the quakes was a magnitude 8.7 offshore quake that produced stronger ground-shaking than any earthquake in history. Scientists found it odd that it triggered several earthquakes…
NASA has just said that the International Space Station debris avoidance maneuver for today was cancelled. NASA was concerned that debris from the Cosmos satellite and the Indian rocket debris would collide with the ISS.

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.
