The Moon’s Top Layer Has Enough Oxygen To Sustain 8 Billion People for 100,000 Years
Alongside advances in space exploration, we’ve recently seen much time and money invested into technologies that could allow effective space resource utilization. And at the forefront of these efforts has been a laser-sharp focus on finding the best way to produce oxygen on the Moon.

Creating a world where no woman has to die giving life — temitayo erogbogbo, global advocacy director, MSD for mothers, merck sharp & dohme.
Mr. Temitayo (Tayo) Erogbogbo, is Global Advocacy Director of MSD for Mothers (https://www.msdformothers.com/), at Merck Sharp & Dohme.
Tayo has two decades of combined private sector and international development experience, 13 years of which was spent in the pharmaceutical industry in multiple roles across community relations, government affairs, marketing and sales.

Hostage Diplomacy and China’s height of desperation
In explosive development, China has been threatening U.S. executives, companies and business groups in recent weeks to fight against China-related bills in the U.S. Congress. According to Reuters, letters from China’s embassy in Washington have pressed executives to urge members of Congress to alter or drop specific bills that seek to enhance U.S. competitiveness.

China’s next generation of hackers won’t be criminals. That’s a problem
The TechCrunch Global Affairs Project examines the increasingly intertwined relationship between the tech sector and global politics.
Criminals have a long history of conducting cyber espionage on China’s behalf. Protected from prosecution by their affiliation with China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), criminals turned government hackers conduct many of China’s espionage operations. Alarming as it may sound, this is not a new phenomenon. An indictment issued by the U.S. Department of Justice last year, for example, indicated that the simultaneous criminal-espionage activity of two Chinese hackers went back as far as 2009. In another case, FireEye, a cybersecurity company, alleges that APT41, a separate cohort of MSS hackers, began as a criminal outfit in 2012 and transitioned to concurrently conducting state espionage from 2014 onward. But there’s reason to believe that since then, China has been laying the groundwork for change.
A spate of policies beginning in 2015 put China in a position to replace contracted criminals with new blood from universities. The CCP’s first effort in 2015 was to standardize university cybersecurity degrees by taking inspiration from the United States’ National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education — a NIST framework for improving the U.S. talent pipeline. One year later, China announced the construction of a new National Cybersecurity Talent and Innovation Base in Wuhan. Including all of the Base’s components, it is capable of training and certifying 70,000 people a year in cybersecurity.
How Artificial Intelligence is Outsmarting Human Scientists
The most intelligent AI Scientists in the world are becoming increasingly worried about Artificial Intelligence programs becoming more unpredictable and incomprehensible as they become more powerful. AI is also overtaking powerful positions in the government, healthcare and defense which could prove dangerous as an Artificial Super Intelligence is coming very close as the Singularity approaches in the future of 2045. People like Elon Musk and Ray Kurzweil have long warned us about AI beating Humans in anything we can imagine. Nvidia and Meta are also working on specially made hardware and software in the form of pytorch and 2022 GPU’s. Artificial General Intelligence is a real dangers and here are some solutions to it.

Montauk Monster: Dogfighting Washout?
The Montauk Monster is a pit bull, a dogfighting washout who washed up a Long Island beach. You heard it here first.
Or maybe you heard it elsewhere first. Even with Google Alert, it’s not easy to keep track of the rumors, speculation and rare pieces of actual news concerning the odd-looking corpse found in late July on a beach near Montauk, New York.
First described on pop culture rag Gawker under the apotheosis-of-hipster subheading “Good Luck With Your Hell Demons,” the Montauk Monster hit the internet like a match tossed on lighter fluid. Was it the handiwork of mad government scientists at the nearby Plum Island Animal Disease Center? A member of some miraculously undiscovered species, giving silent testimony to the power of Nature, so exhaustively explored and encroached upon, to surprise?
NVIDIA Thinks we Live Inside a Simulation — Earth 2.0 Supercomputer
The Hardware Giant NVIDIA is now working on one of the craziest projects I’ve ever seen. They’re attempting to build the fastest supercomputer ever made in hopes of simulating the entire earth in real time for climate research and potentially even more. They call this super computer Earth 2 and it’s going to feature their most powerful next generation GPU’s in the world. It’ll feature multiple exaflops of performance and be supported by the government. I can’t wait to see how this crazy project works out. It was announced by Jensen Huang at NVIDIA GTC 2021.
