Type VII

Posted by in categories: cosmology, futurism

A type V II or K7 civilization would travel, transcend and ultimately oversee or ‘’be’’ the Omniverse which is the collection of every single universe, multiverse, megaverse, paraverse, dimension (alternate or pocket) and realm. Everything is in the Omniverse, and there is only one Omniverse.

It is likely that such power would come from an individual rather than a civilization, as the civilization would have transcended and merged into a single mind that would encompass all thoughts and all timelines, thus being omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. This is the Creator: a god above all gods, responsible for all of existence, past and future.

Space Station 20th – Women and the Space Station

Posted by in category: space

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! As of March 2020, 65 women have flown in space. Of these, 38 have worked aboard the International Space Station as long-duration crew members. Women have contributed to construction of station, served as shuttle pilots and commanders, commanded station expeditions and participated in numerous spacewalks including the recent series of all-woman excursions. Women currently hold the record for the single longest spaceflight by an American and the record for cumulative spaceflight time by an American. Their ongoing achievements will contribute to NASA successfully landing the first woman and the next man on the Moon as part of the Artemis program.

Immune cell which kills most cancers discovered by accident by British scientists in major breakthrough

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, innovation

3D illustration of a cancer cell in the process of mitosis. 3D illustration of a cancer cell in the process of mitosis. A new type of immune cell which kills most cancers has been discovered by accident by British scientists, in a finding which could herald a major breakthrough in treatment.

Researchers at Cardiff University were analysing blood from a bank in Wales, looking for immune cells that could fight bacteria, when they found an entirely new type of T-cell.

That new immune cell carries a never-before-seen receptor which acts like a grappling hook, latching on to most human cancers, while ignoring healthy cells.

Dodge Charger “Batmobile” Rendered, Looks Like Robert Pattinson’s Next Ride

Posted by in categories: futurism, transportation

It was with great pleasure that I glared at the rather revealing Batmobile teasers The Batman director Matt Reeves shared last week. The superhero’s future ride, previewed after we caught a glimpse at his future Batcycle, leaves the mechanical monster look of its recent predecessors behind, drawing inspiration from the contemporary muscle car customization culture instead.
