Mars has been seeing a lot of action lately, between NASA’s string of rovers and new projects from Elon Musk and Mars One. But what would it take to set up a permanent settlement there? Could humans survive in such a harsh and alien setting? In this week’s Big Future, Adrianne Jeffries takes a look at the nuts and bolts of a martian settlement, from food shipments to radiation management. There are a lot of problems, but we’ve got good ideas about how to solve them.

Finally a video that fits into my view of the world. Human-kind isnt declining or being the worst. There is a very good chance we, as a species, have improved along centuries. The only difference is we have access to everything bad that happens in the world and the frequency of such incidents in the news. This is not to say that we are at our best, we probably never will and that should not stop each one of us being a better person.
Being Manly!

Reminds me old times ..Urvasi Urvasi, take it easy policy…!
An amazing video! The irony of how the modern man’s most common state of existence is Lonely yet we are surrounded!
Lucid Dreaming has been shown to improve Creativity and Productivity! Also it sounds a lot like Inception in real life! How cool is that?!
I am in my Day 3 of my Lucid Dreaming projects, I have begun to remember my dreams slightly better and take an effort to do so. It is a very short space of time and I cannot vouch if the effects are due to my efforts or I have been having dreams which seem more vivid.
The dreams I remember when I wake up, I tend remember the feel of them throughout the day.
Looking forward to see where this leads.
Calling All!
