LAS VEGAS--Sight tracking sounds like a new PC interface we might actually use. And anything that helps push wireless charging forward will get our attention. But of all the still-developing technologies we saw at CES, it's the 3D Systems CubeX 3D printer that has us the most excited.
Makerbot announced its own new printer, the Replicator 2X, at this year's show. It's a fine-looking machine, and its print quality looks superb. 3D Systems got the nod for a nomination because its CubeX does things we haven't seen before in a consumer-approachable 3D printer.

Fuck music, internet piracy is finally gonna up its game and people are going to start downloading real shit and come up crazy like the motherfucking Foot yo

cool video of a pulsar
http://www.space.com/19166-fast-spin...ets-video.html

A pulsar is a spinning collapsed star, one that did not have enough mass to go supernova. This one is 12 miles across, dense as all fuck, and spinning at a rate of 11 times a second. It is spitting out jets of plasma that can be plainly seen in the video. fucking awesome.

Asteroid Capture: NASA plans to drag space rock into lunar orbit"

"This is the first chance humanity has to demonstrate with an asteroid of this size that we can move its orbit," Bolden said. "It will be tens of years before we can say we can protect the Earth from an impact. It won't happen in my lifetime as administrator, but this is the first step."

That is a bit disingenuous, the top priority of the asteroid programs hasn't exactly been about saving the world from extinction level event impacts, rather, to expand commercial mining and extraction of valuable minerals. Moon rocks were relatively worthless, but asteroids can be big money.

what about the helium 3?

[SuchFriendsAreDangerous]

in the scheme of interplanetary commercial mining, the small but more than on earth amounts were still inconsequential hence why we've never went back to the moon in the past 40 years

the biggest goof off and jack off session this country ever spent money on.

a circle jerk for congress and scientist.

The Apollo program was the most genius cover for the development of Intercontinental Ballistic Missile systems ever. Fooled the entire America public into waving the flag and supporting the development of mutually assured destruction

It was all part of the same process and deeply interconnected. Don't let the jingoism fool you
