Tech companies are competing to develop the first viable passenger-carrying sky taxis, whether manned or pilotless, but how soon could these clever copters really be whizzing over our cities? And would you trust one?

When a climate alarmist, here-in and hence forth known as the Frizzler’s, try to bedazzle you with blinding science, telling you that harmful back radiation rays are going to frazzle the Earth, leaving everything asunder and barren you need to be able to provide examples which show how utterly ridiculous they are.

Researchers have discovered that a 192-year-long series of volcanic eruptions in Antarctica coincided with accelerated deglaciation 17,700 years ago.

The discovery of boron on Mars gives scientists more clues about whether life could have ever existed on the planet, according to a paper published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.

By following up on mysterious high-energy sources mapped out by NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, the Netherlands-based Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) radio telescope has identified a pulsar spinning at more than 42,000 revolutions per minute, making it the second-fastest known.

Environmental activists are blaming global warming for intensifying Hurricane Irma as the massive storm barrels across the South Atlantic towards the Florida coast.

The origin of cosmic rays, high-energy particles from outer space constantly impacting on Earth, is among the most challenging open questions in astrophysics. Now new research published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society sheds new light on the origin of those energetic particles.

Observations by Japan’s Venus climate orbiter Akatsuki have revealed an equatorial jet in the lower to middle cloud layer of the planet’s atmosphere, a finding that could be pivotal to unraveling a phenomenon called superrotation.

Top Swiss specialist in organic and general chemistry publishes devastating new paper backing claims that consensus ‘greenhouse gas’ science is wrong about man-made global warming.

Every second of every day Google processes over 40,000 search queries – that’s about 3.5bn questions a day or 1.2tn a year. But there’s one question that Google apparently doesn’t want answered: is Google a monopoly?

The belief that humans came out of Africa millions of years ago is widely believed. But it might be about to be entirely re-written, according to the authors of a new study.

Large solar storms, responsible for the northern lights, may have played a role in the strandings of 29 sperm whales in the North Sea early in 2016.

On September 1 2017, a massive asteroid measuring roughly 2.8 miles wide skimmed past Earth at just 4.4 million miles away, or 18 times the distance between our planet and the moon.

Internet of Things has started to impact every aspect of our daily lives. Our appliances, cars, gadgets, communication devices, tools, and even some of our clothing have become nodes on the internet.

There are around 3000 wind turbines across Scotland, many of them close to individual homes and villages.
Similar symptoms such as loss of balance, nausea, loss of coordination, a pressure in the ear, thumping in the head or chest, epistaxis (high volume nosebleeds) are reported from some people living in close proximity to these turbines (also at many wind farms in the UK and elsewhere).
