On Saturday, Aug. 11th, the New Moon will pass in front of the sun producing a partial solar eclipse visible from parts of Canada, Iceland, Scandinavia and much of Asia. As much as 73% of the solar disk will be covered. Selected cities in the eclipse zone include Moscow (2.1%), Oslo (4.8%), Raykjavik (20%), Tromso (29%), and Seoul (35%). Watch this movie for a preview.

When the eastern U.S. plunged into a deep freeze last winter, some scientists blamed Arctic ice melt from man-made global warming for the anomalously cold weather in the eastern part of the country.

Recently a new meme started doing the rounds on the Internet — the “Intellectual Dark Web”. The phrase was coined by the mathematician Eric Weinstein. It seems to have caught on — showing that whatever it is, quite a few people are recognising it — even though there’s a lot of discussion about what exactly it means.

The Pacific Northwest is known for many things—its beer, its music, its mythical large-footed creatures. Most people don’t associate it with earthquakes, but they should. It’s home to the Cascadia megathrust fault that runs 600 miles from Northern California up to Vancouver Island in Canada, spanning several major metropolitan areas including Seattle and Portland, Oregon.

As the world’s population expands and we become wealthier, drugs and chemical-based care products become more prevalent.
While pharmaceuticals are essential for human health and well-being, less is known on the effects they have on the freshwater sources on which we depend for our existence, and their impact on human health and biota.

Like so many other people on this Earth, I was led to believe that Albert Einstein was the “Greatest” scientist that the world has ever known.
But just as so much of so-called ‘history’ has been fabricated in order to brainwash the public into believing myths that serve the parasitic controllers, so was Albert Einstein created into a mythic figure in order to support those ends.

Another busted warming scare – that global warming would wipe out many coffee growers. In fact, that it was destroying crops already.

New research shows that a big earthquake can not only cause other quakes, but large ones, and on the opposite side of the Earth.
The findings, published today in Scientific Reports, are an important step toward improved short-term earthquake forecasting and risk assessment.

A veteran meteorologist claims to have evidence the hottest temperature ever recorded in the entire world at Death Valley was probably man-made, but not in the way one would think.

Focusing only on the practical applications of scientific research bodes ill for the future.
“Science, like the Mississippi, begins in a tiny rivulet in the distant forest.”
— Abraham Flexner
In 1933, when America’s most famous immigrant settled in Princeton, N.J., Franklin Roosevelt tried to invite Albert Einstein to the White House. Abraham Flexner, the founding director of the Institute for Advanced Study that had brought Einstein to Princeton, intercepted FDR’s letter before the intended recipient saw it.

A new radio telescope in Canada is doing its job picking up mysterious signals from deep space known as “fast radio bursts” (FRBs).
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) in British Columbia detected the first-ever FRB at frequencies below 700 MHz on July 25, a signal named FRB 180725A.
