So materially speaking after Stone age we have been in these ages: Copper (~ 5000 BC) - Bronze (~ 3000 BC) - Iron & Steel (since 1000 BC) - Aluminum & Plastic (since late 19th - 20th centuries) Not talking about energy. Virtual age? People are pushing for VR technology but I am still skeptical until there is a device that doesn't look absolutely ridiculous, doesn't generate a lot of energy but still manages to render images well. It is a lot to ask for but there was a time when computers were Enigma machines. The question is also, smartphones and computers were seamlessly integrated into our echo systems but how well with virtual environments do that for us? It would be interesting to see and maybe we can finally vote John Carmack for president. Although, we might see an AI age right before the virtual age. Now I am not talking about strong AI in which the AI is sentient and westworld type, but AI in the terms of weak but extremely functional AI. The self driving cars work really well and more companies are extending their services to use AI. Even software AI solutions are prevalent : www.engadget.com/2016/11/14/visa-chat-bot/

Amoxicillin 500 is good for avoiding usual small acnes from being created. I used it for my tooth, but the result on my skin is impressive!
I've eaten even more sweet stuff than usual and my skin is oily af ... but acnes didn't happen.

www.independent.co.uk/news/science/hydrogen-metal-revolution-technology-space-rockets-superconductor-harvard-university-a7548221.html?cmpid=facebook-postthis is pretty amazing since the pressure needed to get metallic hydrogen is huge to say the least, Jupiters core is made of metallic hydrogen. If anyone is curious how hydrogen can be a metal it is an element in first group of periodic table just like lithium, sodium potassium etc (so same as alkaline metals), which all can form diatomic gases like hydrogen when heated (in inert atmosphere) but elemental states (which do react with atmospheric gases and get oxidized) are metals. The Hydrogen has very very weak inter-molecular forces (only dispersion) just because of its size therefore only little heat is needed to boil it (-253C its the boiling point for hydrogen) so getting solid hydrogen will need very low temperatures/huge pressure. Interestingly the article mentions that they need to investigate whether it will be stable under normal conditions, so a bit like with diamonds as they mentioned (and will very very slowly turn into lower energy form over time like diamonds very very slowly are turning into graphite) but i think it will just react with atmospheric gases just like the other alkaline metals and possibly not be as useful in oxidized form (unless its in inert atmosphere) still useful as fuel if its production and storage methods become efficient. (i made some silly errors writing this but should be gone now, so my apologies)

In Canada they kept a woman alive for 6 days after removing here lungs waiting for donor lungs. The surgery was successful pretty amazing feat to keep someone alive for 6 days with no lungs.

Well, this should maybe be in the Aviation/Space thread. There are no laser guns. It's briefly mentioned that the wing hardpoints are wired for laser weapons. By this is almost certainly meant laser-guided weapons and laser designators. Russia has no economic or technological resources to develop laser guns, and even the American laser guns take an entire Boeing 747 to carry. The news is really that the Mig-35 has reached a stage where development of the first production version is basically finished. The Mig-35 is sort of a Mig-29 'done right'. Which means it's not state of the art (which is unavailable in Russia anyway) but tremendously more exportable and practically useful for Russia than the old Soviet era aircraft. The Su-35S (combat operational since 2016) (lots of '35's here, it's the number in fashion, don't get them mixed up) is the same idea projected on the Su-27. I'm tempted to call it 'Westernized'. The airframe is made stronger and lighter, with longer life-span, with the help of some composites and point reinforcements. The payload is considerably bigger, making it a true multirole aircraft. Wing loading is higher, helping with range and kinematics (and low-speed aerobatics are overrated anyway). Engines are more reliable and make less smoke. They also have rather slightly greater thrust and a massive increase in service life. But the biggest change is in the systems. Here the plane is completely rewired to something that at least has the ambition to be modern multirole standard. Of interest is the infrared search and tracking system. The F-35 also has a system like that. Since the foundation technologies for these have come into full maturity in the last decade (during the F-35's development) - processing power + the sensors have close to 100% efficiency and the technology to make them is commercially available -, I predicted that many/all would eventually field this kind of systems. The bad news for the F-35 is that together with helmet display this raises situational awareness so much that it pretty much completely nullifies both stealth and visibility advantages inside its range. I get no response from the F-35 crowd on this issue, so probably they either don't understand how this may transform future air combat, or they're so fixated on getting that stubborn plane that they just stick their heads into the sand, or - hopefully - I don't know what I'm talking about.

I don't know if you already discussed this but what do you think of this should they go ??? I know they have to start somewhere and other ( Earth like ) planets they have discovered are at least for now to far away. But still there is no atmosphere on Mars and there are more problems they have to face on Mars. And i do not follow it all on the internet and t.v but it is kinda interesting. And also what do you think will they ever travel with the speed of light ???

Despite the fact that actually landing on the Venusian surface is out of the question, Venus seems to have a lot more going for it than Mars does. It's closer than Mars. It has a heavy atmosphere primarily comprised of carbon dioxide. Nearly identical gravity. Etc.

Despite the fact that actually landing on the Venusian surface is out of the question, Venus seems to have a lot more going for it than Mars does. It's closer than Mars. It has a heavy atmosphere primarily comprised of carbon dioxide. Nearly identical gravity. Etc. I'd say Venus as well but that's because it provides a future stopgap for the colonization of Mercury which I think we desperately need to get to if we ever want to properly colonize the solar system. That is where I picture all space industry at least for the immediate future of colonization of the solar system taking place. It has the raw materials required for actual foundries to be set up and constructed in space, it would be a viable mine for centuries due to its untapped resources, better yet it already has a common crossover with several I'd presume mineral rich asteroids that can be hollowed out for lodging and other facilities. Note I am thinking ultra late game here but I'd support Venus over Mars in terms of actual space settlements just because I think we need to going the opposite way from Mars initially. Once we have ships that can actually crank out a decent speed in the vacuum and not be reliant on just momentum based thrust its a different game, but Venus is within reach of us now. Mercury just a bit beyond it. Plus I dream of the day of a ship actually being created in space to travel through space and I think that day can dawn a lot sooner if viable industry gets going up in space. Here is a article on the subject. phys.org/news/2016-08-colonize-mercury.html
