The discovery of the recent CRISPR means DNA altering has now caught up with human beings. Soon, we could see genetically modified human beings. In October 2016, we reported that a private biotechnology company in the United States, Editas Medicine is preparing to produce the first genetically modified human beings on Earth by 2017.

Do you think animals can laugh? The author shows that a few animals can take a joke, and dolphins appear to have a great sense of humor. #SenseOfHumor
The vehicle will initially run on jet fuel, but will eventually transition to liquid hydrogen once the technology becomes commercially feasible (read: won’t explode and kill everyone). The vertical-takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft, nicknamed the CityHawk, will utilize Urban Aeronautics patented internal rotor system embedded in the fuselage to achieve flight. #flyingcar
A new study provides the most accurate estimate of the frequency that planets that are similar to Earth in size and in distance from their host star occur around stars similar to our Sun. #exoplanets
Thanks to the continuous development of the medical industry, unbelievable medical procedures are now possible for the world to take advantage of. Check out this infographic.
According to OpenAI’s website, freedom from financial obligations allows for a “better focus on a positive human impact…AI should be an extension of individual human wills and, in the spirit of liberty, as broadly and evenly distributed as is possible safely.” #elonmusk
Astronomers have discovered a stunning set of 39 massive galaxies
The modular floating farms are not a reality yet but the concept behind it is sustainable and highly necessary with the rapidly growing human population and the equally declining access to natural resources. #sustainablefarming
Visual, or optical, illusions show us that our minds tend to make assumptions about the world – and what you think you see is often not the truth. Throughout history, curious minds have questioned why our eyes are so easily fooled by these simple drawings. Illusions, we have found, can reveal everything from how we process time and space to our experience of consciousness. Here’s why… #opticalillusions
A team of researchers from the University of Melbourne has produced a reconstructed head of an 18 to 25-year-old woman who lived at least 2000 years ago that they named Meritamun, which means beloved of the god Amun. #AncientEgypt
Tesla’s invention would allow for self-propulsion of an unmanned vehicle for which he foresaw many potential uses, the most impressive of which, Tesla believed could help bring peace to the world. #nikolatesla #drone #worldpeace
In the hunt for life on other worlds, astronomers scour over planets that are light-years away. They need ways to identify life from afar—but what counts as good evidence? #nasa
Smartphone addiction in children can be just as deadly as alcohol or cocaine.
As developers use Angular to build everything from web and desktop, to mobile applications, the opportunities for professionals who are trained in Angular are rising.
New research could be key to our understanding of how the aging process works. The findings potentially pave the way for better cancer treatments and revolutionary new drugs that could vastly improve human health in the twilight years. #aging
