The space missions of 2023 are likely to be very significant as new milestones in cosmic exploration are brought to the forefront by NASA.

This year, NASA will launch its journey to a metallic world, a spacecraft will place a ton of asteroid samples on Earth and ahistoric lunar mission will receive its crew.

Much is to be expected, according to NASA Administrator Bill Nelson.

“More amazing discoveries from the Webb telescope, climate missions that will tell us more about Earth’s evolution, continued science aboard the International Space Station, groundbreaking aeronautical developments with the X-59 and X-57 experimental airplanes, selection of the first astronauts to go to the Moon in more than 50 years, and much more,” he said.

NASA’s plan is great, as is the European Space Agency’s, which will open a mission to Jupiter and its moons. In addition to that, it will send a satellite to design a 3-D map of the universe, and it will begin new training for its astronauts, including one who is physically disabled.

This progression follows the evolution of life and proves at what level man is evolved!

A synthetic fabric, which was designed by Chinese scientists, allowed some pigs injured near the penis, preventing erection, to get it again, report the AFP.

If it works for an animal, we can imagine that it could help human beings in the future, right?

Through a press release, one of the authors of this special fabric specified that it was “an area that has received little attention, but the needs are enormous”.

Experts have reported that approximately 5% of men experience Peyronie’s disease, which is most likely caused by injury during sexual intercourse. This disease causes, among other things, a curvature of the penis.

At this time, men can go under the knife to get a graft, which can be rejected by the immune system.

So researchers began testing a synthetic tissue made of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel, “undermining the properties of this membrane,” as reported in the Journal de Montréal.

The tests on the little pigs in question were very surprising, as the penis was able to regain a normal erection, almost immediately. After one month, the result was still satisfactory.

This is very promising for penile injuries in men!

Swimmers at Hillary’s Dog Beach (Western Australia) could have experienced a scene worthy of “Jaws” as a tiger shark prowled close to the shore.

This scene filmed by a drone occurred on December 28. The images captured are impressive, as the shark remained a few meters away from the unsuspecting swimmers for several minutes.

We can even see the shark running towards a lady, but luckily, it suddenly decided to turn around.

“I was afraid it was an attack and I was obviously very scared!” said Sam Wood, the “pilot” of the drone.

Wood was half a mile from the beach when he was filming the scene with his drone, and he quickly moved closer to notify beachgoers so the worst could be avoided.

As aresult of this “film”, residents claimed to have seen several of these predators near the shore. One of them reported having seen no less than six sharks in six months…

In short, shark attacks in Western Australia occur regularly. In fact, last October, a man was bitten on the arm violently by a shark while spearfishing.

The Sainte-Justine Foundation has received a historic and monumental donation.

On December 15, philanthropists Ms. Diane Blais and Mr. Michel Lanteigne, two former executives of the accounting firm Ernst & Young, pledged $40 million.

This personal donation from the couple will be used for pediatric research, including a portion for oncology.

Note that Mr. Lanteigne’s son, Benoit, died of leukemia at the age of eight and for years has been pondering his legacy.

From now on, the building of the specialized units of the Sainte-Justine will bear the name of Michel Lanteigne’s child, Benoît Lanteigne.

Obviously, the couple hopes that this donation will influence other to deposit amounts for the advancement of other research projects that need funding.

Data indicates that the cure rate for children with cancer is barely over 80%, which shows that medicine still needs financial support to push research further.

Elon Musk has been in the news for the past week, and one of the latest cases once again involves that student who created an account on Twitter to post information about the billionaire’s private flights.

Musk eventually blocked the account in question, but it looks like since that decision, his safety and that of his family are no less challenged as a crazed stalker attacked his car with his son inside!

While a car was transporting Musk’s two-year-old son, an unknown person was following the car and he abruptly blocked the vehicle, even climbing on the hood…

The boss of Tesla and Twitter accuses the system of tracking thefts set up by the teenager.

Itis in this state of mind that Musk has taken legal action against the one who exposes his position publicly. That’s really what led to this attack, according to Elon Musk.

Legal action is being taken against young programmer Jack Sweeney, the one who opened an account that tracks all of Elon’s flights since 2020.

Is it a coincidence that this incident occurred after Twitter decided to block the account in question?
