Last year, rumors came out that the plot of Prometheus would be heavily inspired by a popular Coast to Coast AM topic in that humanity was genetically engineered by extraterrestrials. Fox came right out and denied that ... more.

From R2D2 to The Terminator, and everything in between - Sci Fi fans around the world have fallen in love with artificial intelligence.  Ready to have your mind blown?  We're not too far off from making the AI in Sci Fi, a reality.  Unfortunately like with most things that could help humanity, AI research is very poorly funded.Recently, I was able to get in touch with more.

This weekend, James Cameron became the first solo diver to reach Challenger Deep and only the third person in history to do it. The whole thing was part of a National Geographic expedition and it was filmed so expect a 3D IMAX release of the footage sometime in the... more.

Recently this awesome image of Jupiter with its moon Io hit the net and spread like wildfire with everyone posting it to their Facebook wall and linking it on twitter. But is it real? Phil Plait over at Bad Astronomy says it is, but explains how it was created:The shot of Jupiter is actually a composite of three images taken in the infrared, well past what the human eye can see. That big blue ... more.

NASA has a Grail spacecraft orbiting the moon and taking pictures of the far side (which we can't see from Earth), and they've released a "video" of the dark side. Unfortunately it isn't much of a video. It really just looks like a still picture that they pan past the camera pretty quickly.

A couple of years ago Dark City director Alex Proyas made a big budget sci-fi movie titled "Knowing" that showed the end of the world. The apocalypse in his doomsday movie was caused by a massive solar flare that wiped out the entire planet in a avalanche of fire. Then Roland Emmerich destroyed the world in "2012" by having a solar flare melt the core of the Earth. Now NASA has completely debunked... more.
