Reaching beyond the pool of knowledge into the airy expanse of the unknown. Tuesday, January 13, 2015. Happy Accidents: Beneficial Mutations in Humans. A while back, I was talking with a group of young students about evolution and natural selection, and I was teaching them about the role of mutations when I was asked an interesting question that I failed to answer. The concept of mutations can be tough to grasp, because mutation sounds like a really bad thing, and indeed it often is. A mutation.

Reaching beyond the pool of knowledge into the airy expanse of the unknown. Tuesday, April 29, 2014. Watch the World Change. A slightly belated Happy Earth Day to everyone! Habitat loss is one of the greatest dangers to natural ecosystems, and deforestation. Let’s take a look at just a few of their images. This is North America, showing areas where forest was gained from 2000-2012 (in blue),. And areas where forest was lost (in red). Some areas have been experiencing both gain. Despite the extensive poli...

Ramblings of a Curiosity Seeker. Thursday, May 21, 2015. China's J-20 Stealth Fighter Needs a new Engine. The J-20 combat aircraft, a new generation of combat aircraft, is currently engaged in intensive trial flights. According to photos circulating online, a newly designed J-20 coded 2013 carried out a series of low altitude maneuvers that demonstrated its relatively advanced performance. From the photo we can clearly see features of the nose including the radome layout, the cockpit, and the canards.

Reaching beyond the pool of knowledge into the airy expanse of the unknown. Saturday, March 31, 2012. Like Reality, But Better. While browsing the technology news recently, I kept coming across the term “Augmented Reality (AR).”  Not being familiar with augmented reality, but being always curious, I decided to investigate exactly what it is.  As it turns out, it’s awesome, so I’m gonna blog about it.

Reaching beyond the pool of knowledge into the airy expanse of the unknown. Monday, March 2, 2015. Dawn Comes to Ceres. This Friday is going to be an exciting day in space exploration! I just got finished watching NASA’s JPL briefing on the status of the Dawn spacecraft mission, and I loved it! And as Bill Nye says: “When you’re in love, you want to tell the world! This image shows an artistic rendition of the Dawn spacecraft. With Vesta to the left and Ceres to the right. Well, it’s largely the do...

Martes, 17 de febrero de 2009. Nuevo sauropodomorfo basal: Panphagia protos. Enlace a artículo completo aquí. Se ha descubierto un nuevo dinosaurio de tipo saurisquio que podría ayudar a esclarecer la división que separaron los clados Therópoda y Sauropodomorpha a finales del Triásico, hace unos 225 millones de años (Carniense).
