Human Knowledge

“Spacemen inhabiting human bodies are apparently able to distort photographic film and to make normally invisible forces appear seemingly out of nowhere.“  From UFO Review, 1980.

Here are some of the best vintage photos I’ve collected.

The technology of producing biological parts is advancing, raising new legal and regulatory questions. Philip Ezze, CC BY-SA

In the last few years, the use of 3D printing has exploded in medicine. Engineers and medical professionals now routinely 3D print prosthetic hands and surgical tools. But 3D printing has only just begun to transform the field.

Today, a quickly emerging set of technologies known as bioprinting is poised to push the boundaries further. Bioprinting uses 3D printers and techniques to fabricate the three-dimensional structures of biological materials, from cells to biochemicals, through precise layer-by-layer positioning. The ultimate goal is to replicate functioning tissue and material, such as organs, which can then be transplanted into human beings.

We have been mapping the adoption of 3D printing technologies in the field of health care, and particularly bioprinting, in a collaboration between the law schools of Bournemouth University in the United Kingdom and Saint Louis University in the United States. While the future looks promising from a technical and scientific perspective, it’s far from clear how bioprinting and its products will be regulated. Such uncertainty can be problematic for manufacturers and patients alike, and could prevent bioprinting from living up to its promise.

Researchers have used Easter Island Moai replicas to show how they might have been “walked” to where they are displayed.

Maori told Europeans that kiore were native rats and no one believed them until DNA tests proved it

Until they finally payed closer attention to local songs and legend that all essentially said “Yah the Goddess Nanda Devi got mad and sent huge heave stones down to kill them”. That was consistent with huge contusions found all on their neck and shoulders and the weather patterns of the area, which are prone to huge & inevitably deadly goddamn hailstones. https://www.facebook.com/atlasobscura/videos/10154065247212728/

“Inuit traditional knowledge was critical to the discovery of both ships, she pointed out, offering the Canadian government a powerful demonstration of what can be achieved when Inuit voices are included in the process.

In contrast, the tragic fate of the 129 men on the Franklin expedition hints at the high cost of marginalising those who best know the area and its history.

“If Inuit had been consulted 200 years ago and asked for their traditional knowledge – this is our backyard – those two wrecks would have been found, lives would have been saved. I’m confident of that,” she said. “But they believed their civilization was superior and that was their undoing.”

“Oh yeah, I heard a lot of stories about Terror, the ships, but I guess Parks Canada don’t listen to people,” Kogvik said. “They just ignore Inuit stories about the Terror ship.”

Schimnowski said the crew had also heard stories about people on the land seeing the silhouette of a masted ship at sunset.

“The community knew about this for many, many years. It’s hard for people to stop and actually listen … especially people from the South.”

it’s literally the oldest accurate oral history of the world.  

John Glenn.

Scott Kelly is an astronaut who spent a year on the International Space Station from 2015 to 2016. He had a fun time. Scott Kelly also has an identical twin brother named Mark (who also happens to be an astronaut) who spent that year on Earth. When Scott came back, they compared the identical twins and were able to see the impact Space can have on the human body. Being in Space not only changed Scott’s physical features (puffier face, he was a little taller) but he had changes in his chromosomes and his genes as well. Being in Space made him slightly more at risk to cancer, dementia and infertility. That does not make going into Space sound very exciting ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Dyson Sphere Alien Civilization found?

I’m not sure what this is but maybe some can help to clear this up. it sure looks like something of un-natural origins… man made / alien made? We have seen proof that Dyson spheres at least theoretically can exist as we have seen with star KIC 8462852 .

This, of course, does not mean that the frequent dimming of this star is because of a Dyson sphere, but it lends more credibility to…
