I just spent a week at the beach staring at the ocean and really starting to think: Why is a sip from the ocean a terrible idea, while lake water (if clean) is okay? In this post, we’ll dive (pun intended) into what sets freshwater and saltwater apart, why the Earth has both types, how […]

We are living in a golden age of data and discovery (though I confess it sometimes doesn’t feel like that). Biomedical science, public health research, and behavioral data are being produced at unprecedented rates. But with this explosion of information comes a growing gap: while knowledge increases, our ability to translate it into practice struggles […]

Some techies today fear hell—not from a god, but from a computer. Human beings have a habit of wrapping up big unknowns in familiar stories. Even in our high-tech, secular age, the quest to create Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) often comes with a kind of religious or end-of-the-world fervor. Some communities of self-described rationalists speak […]

Recent announcements from NASA about the ambitious plan to construct a nuclear reactor on the lunar surface have stirred global interest in space exploration and technological innovation. The endeavor, slated for deployment by 2030, aims to support sustained human presence on the Moon by providing a stable and sufficient energy source. Let’s linger on that […]

Here’s a wild thought: the Moon isn’t the dead, silent rock we once believed it to be. It shudders. It slips. It even tosses boulders down its slopes like a petulant child flipping over toy blocks. And thanks to a recent study, we now have concrete—well, lunar regolith—evidence of this surprisingly active behavior. This isn’t […]

Cellulose nanocrystals, made from bamboo, can create colorful films by stacking into layers. By mixing different amounts of two materials, these films can be made in blue, green, yellow, or red and used as eco-friendly pigments. The films become more colorful and strong through careful preparation.
