Synopsis: Society: Culture and religion: Culture: Civilisation:

The findings showed for the first time how the extraordinarily stable compound#calcium-aluminum-silicate-hydrate (C-a-S-H)# binds the material used to build some of the most enduring structures in Western civilization.

Cryptocurrency is following the same path as precious metals in ancient civilization. Where gold was valued for its color, easy malleability, purity and its anti-corrosive properties,

Gold was discovered by practically every world civilization and became a good of such universal value it slowly became the de facto means of exchange (along with silver) across much of the planet,

For the vast majority of civilization, money was gold or silver, and both originated not as centrally issued currency that,

while spending 45 days in a previously unexplored region of the continent, are beaming their medical information back to civilization while wearing Astroskin graphicastroskin.

These are the ideals not only of Chinese civilization, but also of humanity at large. That is what the Tang Prize seeks to promote.

A new project proposing that galaxy-spanning alien civilisations should generate detectable heat has turned up a few dozen galaxies that hold promise as harbours for life.

what alien civilisations may be like. This approach is very different says Franck Marchis at the SETI Institute in California who was involved not in the project.

because it doesn't put any constraints on the origin of the civilisation or their willingness to communicate.

Could that mean we have already found alien civilisations that have spread across galaxies? If by'found them'you mean that WISE detected the waste heat from them then yes that's right

if these sorts of energy-hungry civilisations exist WISE should have detected them Wright says. But identifying them is another story.

There is more than enough energy in high-altitude winds to power all of civilization says Ken Caldeira a Stanford university climate scientist who co-authored a 2012 study that ballparked the potential at 1800 terawatts--more than four times the estimate near the surface.

or not the new finding spells trouble for modern civilization it likely will help researchers understand how

s AI going to destroy civilization as we know it? It not just people on the street, Christian says. t also true for a lot of the people at the very places developing these technologies. hristian cites the example of Stuart Russell, a professor of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley,

Rather, the clock is a visual metaphor to warn the public about how close the world is to a potentially civilization-ending catastrophe.
