Carnival of Space 178 - traversing wormholes and super magnetic fields The Carnival of Space 178 is up at we are all in the gutter This site supplied - Two Mars hopper designs for exploring over ten times more of Mars by making fuel from the Mars atmosphere This site also supplied a proposal for making air transportation safer. Weird Sciences looks at wormhole induction propulsion (WHIP) and interstellar travel How could wormhole could be constructed ? By confining exotic matter to narrow regions to form the edges of three-dimensional space like a cube. The exotic nature of the edge material requires negative energy density and tension/pressure. In a previous work by Maccon (Wormhole Induction Propulsion (WHIP) by Eric W. Magnetic field strengths would need to be billions of Tesla so that a significant radius of curvature and slowing of c can be measured Magnetic induction technologies based on nuclear explosives/implosives might work in order to achieve large magnitude results.

Syria Comment Resources to support a new and open world for learning Googlers are the types who never really leave the classroom. Guest speakers come to campus to give talks on subjects ranging from fiction to physics. Diverse groups of people work together to understand and solve big problems while groups of Googlers engage in passionate debate in our cafeterias. Recently, we decided to gather our resources and lessons learned into one place for educators everywhere. To develop all of these new materials, we went straight to the source, relying on dozens of educators to provide stories and feedback. Thanks to educators, students and supporters everywhere for helping to extend our spirit of lifelong learning into classrooms around the globe.

Read Our Blog | Genocide Intervention Network The world is marking the 20th anniversary of the Rwanda genocide. Let’s remember and then act to prevent and stop the genocides that are happening today. Continuing Reading & Discuss April is Genocide Prevention Month and is a time when we come together to commemorate past genocides and act to stop atrocities and prevent future ones. Continuing Reading & Discuss As the march toward genocide continues in Burma, it’s business as usual as Defense Secretary Hagel meets with his Burmese counterpart in Hawaii. Continuing Reading & Discuss Deteriorating conditions have put Burma on a downward trajectory that could end in the world’s next genocide without immediate action by the United States and the international community. Continuing Reading & Discuss Cambodia remind us that the impact of genocide is long lasting and the consequences of such a tragedy should never be allowed to go ignored. Continuing Reading & Discuss
FOI Topics and Links of the Week Google calls out Facebook. Last month, Facebook added an information download feature that made users’ data portable. But there was one big exception. A user could download any content that he had uploaded or created — photos, wall posts, messages, etc.; however, he could only get a list of his friends, no contact information that would allow him to rebuild his social network easily elsewhere. For every smartphone, someone, somewhere has an app kill switch. i(Gold)Bricks. What are the limits on employee Internet policies? A picture is worth a thousand dollars in traffic tickets.
