| Dolly Reborn! Four Clones created of Sheep that changed Science |
| 2010-11-30 21:43:00 |
Dolly the sheep has been reborn. Four clones have been made by the scientist behind the original research.The quads, which have been nicknamed ‘the Dollies’, are exact genetic copies of their predecessor, who was put down seven years ago.As the first mammal to be cloned from an adult cell, Dolly made headlines around the world when she was born at the Roslin Institute near Edinburgh in 1996.She was hailed as a scientific sensation but critics warned the technology brought with it a high risk of miscarriage and still birth – and for those creatures that did survive, ill health and premature death.The need to put Dolly down aged only six, to end her suffering from advanced lung disease and arthritis, further inflamed fears about the long-term health of cloned animals.Read Full Article ...

| Chinese Villagers with Green Eyes-Descendants of Lost Roman Legion |
| 2010-11-29 04:43:00 |
For years the residents of the remote north western Chinese village of Liqian have believed they were special. Many of the villagers have Western characteristics including green eyes and blonde hair leading some experts to suggest that they may be the descendants of a lost Roman legion that settled in the area.Now DNA testing of the villagers has shown that almost two thirds of them are of Caucasian origin. The results lend weigh to the theory that the founding of Liqian may be linked to the legend of the missing army of Roman general Marcus Crassus.In 53BC, after Crassus was defeated by the Parthians and beheaded near what is now Iran, stories persisted that 145 Romans were captured and wandered the region for years.The town's link with Rome was first suggested by a professor of...

| Some Say Moon Photos Show Signs of Alien Life |
| 2010-11-09 21:37:00 |
A team of scientists suspects that if there is life on Mars, it may look familiar.What NASA did not tell the American people is that it discovered the remains of an ancient lunar civilization, and to this day, that data and those artifacts have been withheld from the American people," claims Richard C. Hoagland, founder of The Enterprise Mission, an extensive private space research analysis website."The orbital photographs show us the scale of ancient ruins on the moon. And surface photography by the astronauts have shown remarkable, specific examples of anomalies that could only be explained through there being ancient remnants of some extraordinarily advanced technology," he says.Read Full Article | Source : Daily Mail...

| Woman Collapses 100 times A Day Every Time She Gets Giggles |
| 2010-11-09 21:26:00 |
A scientist has revealed she suffers from a rare neurological condition which causes her to collapse up to 100 times a day simply by laughing.Claire Allen, 35, suffers from bouts of 'cataplexy' triggered by feelings such as fear, surprise or happiness.The attacks, a rare symptom of the sleeping disorder narcolepsy, cause her to lose control of her body and collapse - although she remains conscious throughout.Each collapse lasts between 30 seconds to five minutes and at its worst Claire endured up to 100 attacks each day.A 'surprise' as simple as a chair in a room having moved to a different place or giggling at a shared joke could spark an attack and leave her helpless on the floor.Read Full Article | Source : Daily Mail...

| Life On Mars Are From Earth |
| 2010-11-02 23:58:00 |
A team of scientists suspects that if there is life on Mars, it may look familiar."We think that if there is life on Mars, it could be related to us," Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineer and scientist Christopher Carr told Discovery News.With NASA funding, Carr and colleagues at MIT are developing a prototype device to decode alien DNA, a project known as the Search for Extraterrestrial Genomes (SETG). They hope to fly an instrument as part of a joint NASA-European Space Agency mission to Mars slated to launch in 2018.Read Full Article | Source : News.Discovery...

| The Science Behind Frankenstein |
| 2010-10-31 02:56:00 |
The science that inspired Mary Shelley to write "Frankenstein" is nearly as strange as the novel itself. Written in 1818, the book was influenced by a scientific feud that ushered in the first battery and our modern understanding of electricity.The story begins in the mid-18th century. Electricity had captured the imaginations of many of Europe's top scientists, and at that time very little was understood about the nature of electricity. Scientists could generate static electricity using spinning machines, but it was not until Benjamin Franklin's famous kite experiment in 1752 that they proved that lightning was of the same essence.At the University of Bologna in Italy, noted surgeon Luigi Galvani was investigating the effects of electricity on animals. It was not an unusual line of inquir...

| Discovery: Two Planets, Two Stars, One System |
| 2010-10-29 06:14:00 |
Discovery: Two Planets, Two Stars, One System Two massive Jupiter-like planets were recently discovered orbiting around two extremely close sister stars – an unexpected find, given the disturbing gravitational effects within most binary star systems that usually disrupt planets from forming.The alien planets were found to orbit around the binary star system NN Serpentis, which is located about 1,670 light-years from Earth.The more massive of the two stars is a very small white dwarf – the burnt-out remnant that is left over when a sun-like star dies. The star is 2.3 times the diameter of Earth, but has a temperature of more than 89,500 degrees Fahrenheit (49,700 degrees Celsius) – almost nine times hotter than the surface of the sun. .Read Full Article | Source : Space.com...

| Mars or Bust! One-Way Trip to the Red Planet. |
| 2010-10-24 10:19:00 |
Mars or Bust! One-Way Trip to the Red Planet Could Kick-start Colonization The vast plains of Mars may be the most promising place beyond Earth for human colonization, but is it enough for a one-way trip to the Red Planet? Two researchers seem to think so.In an article published this month in the Journal of Cosmology, environmental scientist Dirk Schulze-Makuch and physicist Paul Davies argue that a manned one-way mission to Mars would not only make economical sense, but mark the beginning of long-term colonization of the planet.Read Full Article | Source : Space.com...

| Addicted To Eating Live Scorpions |
| 2010-10-10 07:59:00 |
A Chinese man says he has become addicted to eating live scorpions and reckons he's swallowed at least 10,000 over the last 30 years.Li Liuqun, 58, says he got hooked when he was walking in mountains close to his home in Hunan province, central China, and was stung by a huge scorpion."I was so angry I picked it up and bit its head off. It tasted sweet and nutty and I never looked back. To me, they're delicious - like fried beans," he explained.Now Li will eat 20 or 30 of the live beasts in a single sitting and seems to be immune to their venom, which can paralyse and kill humans in large enough doses."I still get stung but they have no effect on me," he said.Medics say Li has probably become addicted to the venom, which is used in small doses in traditional Chinese medicine to relieve the ...
