70 Year Old Prophecy: The Earth Will Soon Be Swept By Extraordinary Rapid Waves of Cosmic Electricity

The prophecy was written 70 years ago.. and it’s absolutely mind-blowing! Peter Konstantinov Deunov, also known as Beinsa Douno, born in 1886 and who later passed away in 1944, left a prophecy that he had obtained through a trance based state. The prophecy was therefore dated as 1944, a few days before his death in December that year. The prophecy Beinsa Douno left fits right into the times we are going through right now, in relation to the shift in consciousness, the earth changes and our golden age. Back then, Douno was aware and taught that we were moving into the age of Aquarius, as per the astrological age system. The Prophecy “During the passage of time, the consciousness of man traversed a very long period of obscurity. This phase which the Hindus call ‘Kali Yuga’, is on the verge of ending. We find ourselves today at the frontier between two epochs: that of Kali Yuga and that of the New Era that we are entering. A gradual improvement is already occurring in t

Scientists might have finally decoded the strange signals coming from pulsars

Astronomers studying pulsars may have finally unravelled why these mysterious pulsating objects appear to send different kinds of signals into space – by tracking the immense cloud trails of their nebulae. Thanks to images taken by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, a new analysis of two very contrasting pulsars shows that pulsars' energy emissions may only be visible to Earth from certain angles – which could explain a mystery that's puzzled scientists up until now. Pulsars are a kind of neutron star – an extremely dense core of matter left over once a massive star has exploded in a supernova. What sets pulsars apart from other neutron stars are their pulsating radio wave emissions – a tightly focused beam of electromagnetic radiation that rapidly rotates around the pulsar much like the light shone from a lighthouse. While pulsars were long categorised by the emission of these radio waves, more recently researchers have found that some pulsars also generate a

This crazy see-through engine shows you what internal combustion actually looks like

This is sick. Of all the things we take for granted in our everyday lives, the engines that keep our cars running have to be one of the most ubiqutious. It's not really our fault that we don't know how awesome these underrated marvels of technology actually are - they're tucked away under the hood, and all the incredible chemistry going on is concealed by that big metal casing. But what if you had a piston engine with a clear cylinder head that lets you see everything? YouTuber Matt Mikka has done just that at his Warped Perception channel to show you the combustion process of a 3 HP flathead Briggs and Stratton Internal Combustion engine in Ultra Slow Motion. He takes it from a 'rich' state (too much fuel and not enough air) to a 'lean' state (too much air and not enough fuel), and burns gasoline, rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol), and the hydrocarbon compound acetylene for comparison. In case you're not familiar with the inter

Scientists say it's time we discussed creating humans from stem cells

It's not science fiction anymore. A paper landed in my inbox this week with a startling premise: soon, stem cells swabbed from human beings’ cheeks or skin could be cultured to create germ cells (sperm and eggs), and from there to create a human being. The process, known as in vitro gametogenesis (IVG), has never been completed with cells from people. And, in fact, human and primate studies have been met with limited success. But there have been real, live mice (and more mouse embryos that were not allowed to develop) created through this process. Every indication is that human beings will soon follow. In a paper published Wednesday in the journal Science Translational Medicine , three researchers argue that now is the time to consider the serious cultural and ethical questions around this technology. Eli Adashi, a professor of medical science at Brown University and an author on the paper, said that the medical benefits of the technology are clear. "Imagine

Last time the ocean was this hot, sea levels got up to 9 metres higher

More than 100,000 years ago, a period of unusually warm sea surface temperatures saw the oceans rise up to 9 metres higher than they are today. The bad news? We might be looking at the same thing happening again, after researchers discovered that the heat extremes of that ancient, natural phase of global warming were actually similar to the temperature trends we're seeing today. A new analysis led by researchers from Oregon State University has found that sea surface temperatures (SST) during the last interglacial period (LIG) – also called the Eemian – bear a striking resemblance to the rise in SSTs that have taken place over the last 150 years or so. The LIG occurred between 129,000 and 116,000 years ago , and was one of the warmest periods of the last 800,000 years. During the interglaciation, Earth's climate warmed due to a shift in the tilt of the planet, causing sea levels to rise between 6 and 9 metres higher than they are at present. Now, after analysing

Scientists have filmed a 'sonic boom' of light for the first time

For the first time, researchers have filmed light creating a ‘sonic boom’ - officially known as a photonic Mach cone - using a new type of ultra-speed camera that can capture an incredible trillion frames per second in just one take. A Mach cone is created when something travels faster than the waves it’s emitting - this often happens when a plane is travelling faster than the speed of sound, producing an ultra-loud boom. But not many people know light can do the same. So how exactly do you create a 'photonic boom'? At first thought, it seems ludicrous that light could also have a Mach cone. After all, nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum – about 300,000 kilometres per second . But light can be slowed down, and as such it can slip faster though some material than others. Which is how the team were able to create the photonic Mach cone. In this experiment, a team of researchers led by optical engineer Jinyang Liang from Washington University
