The Independent 07 May 2006 Invisible "smog", created by the electricity that powers our civilisation, is giving children cancer, causing miscarriages and suicides and making some people allergic to modern life, new scientific evidence reveals.
The evidence - which is being taken seriously by national and international bodies and authorities - suggests that almost everyone is being exposed to a new form of pollution with countless sources in daily use in every home. |

Meteorites that have fallen to Earth contain some of the most primitive stuff of life, a new study has found.
Contrary to popular belief, they are packed with ancient carbon-rich (organic) molecules that were essential for life to get started on Earth. Until now, it was thought such matter, which was formed before our Solar System came into existence, could only be found in interstellar dust. |

May 09, 2006 It may sound like science fiction, but the prospect that suicide bombers and hijackers could be made redundant by flying robots is a real one, according to experts.
The technology for remote-controlled light aircraft is now highly advanced, widely available -- and, experts say, virtually unstoppable. Models with a wingspan of five metres (16 feet), capable of carrying up to 50 kilograms (110 pounds), remain undetectable by radar. Comment: Well, gosh - if the technology for remote-controlled light aircraft is widely available, how hard would it be for, say, a certain North American government and the infamous intelligence agency of another Middle Eastern nation to remotely pilot an "airliner" mockup into the Pentagon, for example?
In any case, one thing is certain: the Bush administration is going to get all the mileage it can from its increasingly large fleet of drones for spying on the US populace. Not only will everyone be afraid of Big Brother, but they will also be wondering if that drone buzzing above their house is instead a terrorist weapon being remotely controlled by Osama from a cave in Afghanistan. |
