We often discuss if space travel is feasible and if we can settle strange new worlds, but if we can, there is still the question of if we will.

Will We Colonize Space?

We all know that time seems to pass at different speeds in different situations. For example, time appears to go slowly when we travel to unfamiliar places. A week in a foreign country seems much longer than week at home.

Time also seems to pass slowly when we are bored, or in pain. It seems to speed up when we’re in a state of absorption, such as when we play music or chess, or paint or dance. More generally, most people report time seems to speed up as they get older.

However, these variations in time perception are quite mild. Our experience of time can change in a much more radical way. In my new book, I describe what I call “time expansion experiences” – in which seconds can stretch out into minutes.

Discover the incredible engineering and visionary potential of Bernal Spheres, futuristic space habitats designed to sustain human life in the stars.

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science (CBS) have uncovered how perceptual memories linked to positive emotions, such as joy or happiness, are strengthened during sleep. The study, published in Neuron, could help scientists understand the neurological basis for overcoming conditions like drug or sexual addiction.

Why do emotional events, whether positive or negative, create strong, long-lasting memories of external information such as music, smells and textures received at the events?

We know that sleep is essential for , the process that turns new events into memories, but do not know how it plays its role in memory enhancement.
