Hypothermia: Hypothermia occurs when your body loses heat faster than you can produce it

Posted by in category: futurism

Hypothermia can make you sleepy, confused, and clumsy. Because it happens gradually and affects your thinking, you may not realize you need help.


People with hypothermia suffer from low body temperature, which is usually below 95 degrees. Read about the common ways to get hypothermia.

The Fairness Principle: How the Veil of Ignorance Helps Test Fairness

Posted by in category: futurism

Behind the Veil of Ignorance, no one knows who they are. They lack clues as to their class, their privileges, or their disadvantages. They exist as an impartial group, tasked with designing a new society with its own conception of justice.


And — here’s the kicker — what if you had to make those decisions without knowing who you would be in this new society?

“But the nature of man is sufficiently revealed for him to know something of himself and sufficiently veiled to leave much impenetrable darkness, a darkness in which he ever gropes, forever in vain, trying to understand himself.”

Revised Moon Narrative: Early Crust Holds Surprising Amounts of Water

Posted by in categories: futurism, space

Does the Moon’s crust have more water than previously thought? This is what a recent study published in Nature Astronomy hopes to figure out as a team of international researchers investigated how the mineral apatite found within a Moon meteorite provides greater insight into how the Moon’s early crust from billions of years ago could have possessed higher amounts of water than scientists have previously hypothesized. This study holds the potential to not only help scientists better understand lunar history but also provide a gateway to unlocking lunar water for future astronaut missions, as well.

“The discovery of apatite in the Moon’s early crust for the first time is incredibly exciting – as we can finally start to piece together this unknown stage of lunar history,” said Dr. Tara Hayden, who is a postdoctoral associate at Western University and lead author of the study. “We find the Moon’s early crust was richer in water than we expected, and its volatile stable isotopes reveal an even more complex history than we knew before.”

Surface stratification determines the interfacial water structure of simple electrolyte solutions

Posted by in category: futurism

The organization of electrolytes at the air/water interface affects the structure of interfacial water and therefore numerous natural processes. It has now been demonstrated that the surface of an electrolyte solution is stratified and consists of an ion-depleted outer surface and an ion-enriched subsurface layer, jointly determining the water interfacial structure.

Advanced hour-hectometer hyperspectral remote sensing for fine-scale atmospheric emissions

Posted by in category: futurism

A groundbreaking study by researchers from a number of institutions in China introduces a novel hyperspectral remote sensing technique capable of hour-hectometer level horizontal distribution of trace gases, offering an advanced tool to accurately identify emission sources.

The study was published in the Journal of Remote Sensing on 14 November 2023.

The introduces a groundbreaking hyperspectral remote sensing method that delivers highly accurate, hour-hectometer-level insights into the horizontal distribution of atmospheric trace gases. This advanced technique utilizes effective optical paths (EOPs) within the ultraviolet (UV) and visible (VIS) spectral bands to measure average trace gas concentrations across various distances.
