Navigating into the unknown… (Where are you going?)
As engineers increasingly turn to machine learning methods to develop adaptable robots, new work makes progress on safety and performance guarantees for robots operating in novel environments with diverse types of obstacles and constraints. (1) Computers trying to navigate into the unknown. Like humans before them. Like gods before them. Like God in the beginning.…

Think SIMPLY!
Why was the cosmos created? Without reason. Isn't that illogical?What/ who created the cosmos? Nothing. Isn't that unscientific?Can the material explain the immaterial? But matter is just a product of the mind!Can the body die and the mind live? But there is no body! You are thinking too much. And this is not always a…

Quantum fuels…
Perfect energy efficiency may be one step closer due to new research by physicists. Jordan and his team investigated how it might be possible to extract work from a system using entanglement as a fuel. In entanglement - one of the basic of concepts of quantum physics - the properties of one particle are interlinked…
