About us
Science Blog was started in August 2002. It lives, breathes and eats press releases from research organizations around the globe. Most of what you read here are press releases from the outfits named in the stories themselves. Got a news story you think belongs here?
Let's talk.
The other half of the equation is
blog posts from readers like you. So if you have an interest in science,

There are other engines than the internal combustion piston engine, Laer. It is just that however you get around it, the problem of transfering mechanical energy to electricity, or heat into mechnical energy, has to obey the laws of Thermodynamics. Until human technology drastically increases via superconductors, better material science, and more advanced bio/chemistry derivatives, humans are stuck with the internal combustion engine and all its variations and modifications. Because in the end, you don't really get ahead in this universe if you shelve a hundred years of development in favor of a "new tech". That's just dumping all your research in your current project and starting something new. Sure, that something new might be fancy and smancy, but it still takes time. And in this universe of ours, who knows how much time we really have? Can we afford to be wasting it by listening to the Greenies? When the real Greenies come, Laer, will Global Warmies protect us from them with their environmental policemen?
