No magic wand required: Scientists propose way to turn any cell into any other cell type 0
- From Around the Web, Science & Technology
- October 25, 2017
In fairy tales, all it takes to transform a frog into a prince, a servant into a princess or a mouse into a horse is the wave of a magic wand.

But in the real world, transforming one living thing into another isn’t so easy. Only in recent years have scientists discovered how to do it, with tiny individual living cells.

Space Station Unit to Study Genetics of Model Organisms 0
- From Around the Web, Science & Technology, Space
- October 25, 2017
Scientists and engineers are developing new hardware destined for the International Space Station to support experiments demonstrating how different organisms, such as plants, microbes or worms, develop under conditions of microgravity. Results from the Spectrum project will shed light on which living things are best suited for long-duration flights into deep space.

THE ‘IMPOSSIBLE’ QUANTUM SPACE ENGINE THAT BREAKS LAWS OF PHYSICS 0
- From Around the Web, Science & Technology
- October 24, 2017
A couple of years ago, researchers at NASA’s Johnson Space Centre proposed a thruster system which actually generates thrust, despite requiring absolutely no propellant. The implications of this discovery are far-reaching; applications for space flight and other technologies which require propulsion could one day become far cheaper, allowing space exploration to expand exponentially.
