Dear Asimov, here we are: robots will kill
Future wars will be faster and more technological, but less human than ever: welcome to the era of robot soldiers. There is a perfect place to test advanced weapons: they are the Wallops Islands, a small patch of land off the coast of Virginia that seems to have come straight from Asimov's pen. If a fishing boat had passed there a year ago he would have seen half a dozen dinghies circulating in the area: a closer look would have revealed that the dinghies had no one on board. … Read more

Because the future will be bright beyond all expectations
Humanity is moving very quickly towards a rosy future. A perfect world, even if perfection will never be fully achieved. Does this seem like an unreasonable prediction to you?

IBM declares war on antibiotic resistant bacteria
IBM and the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology in Singapore have designed a new type of polymer capable of identifying and destroying antibiotic-resistant bacteria and preventing their evolution. The most interesting feature of this nanostructure is that it is biodegradable and does not accumulate in tissues: it can be easily eliminated from the body, unlike previous polymer-based solutions. The material, used as a real 'invisible missile', destroys the cell membranes of bacteria: it has a ... Read more
