Oddly enough nearly 50 percent of the trees near the abomb blast in japan survived đ
In the city of Nagasaki, there are dozens of hibaku trees, or âA-bomb treesâ that show scars from the heat and blast of the atomic bombing 74 years ago. People in the city see the trees as eyewitnesses of the attack and take extra care of them.
The two oak trees in Sachiko Yamashitaâs garden have long gashes all the way down their trunks. These are the physical scars of the 1945 bombing.
The Philippine Coast Guard has accused a China Coast Guard ship of pointing a âmilitary gradeâ laser at some of its crew, temporarily blinding them, aboard a vessel in contested waters of the South China last week.
The Chinese ship also âmade dangerous maneuversâ in approaching within 150 yards (137 meters) of the Philippine vessel, the Philippine Coast Guard alleged in a statement posted on its official Facebook page, with photos purporting to show the laserâs green beam.

Over the past decade, Iâve kept a close eye on the emergence of artificial intelligence in healthcare. Throughout, one truth remained constant: Despite all the hype, AI-focused startups and established tech companies alike have failed to move the needle on the nationâs overall health and medical costs.
Finally, after a decade of underperformance in AI-driven medicine, success is approaching faster than physicians and patients currently recognize.
The next version, ChatGPT4, is scheduled for release later this year, as is Googleâs rival AI product. And, last week, Microsoft unveiled an AI-powered search engine and web browser in partnership with OpenAI, with other tech-industry competitors slated to join the fray.

Wikipedia: âWith Folded HandsâŠâ is a 1947 science fiction novelette by American writer Jack Williamson. Willamsonâs influence for this story was the aftermath of World War II and the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and his concern that âsome of the technological creations we had developed with the best intentions might have disastrous consequences in the long run.â

It was the first of several Astounding stories adapted for NBCâs radio series Dimension X.
New âexascaleâ supercomputers will bring breakthroughs in science. But the technology also exists to study nuclear weapons.
If your image of nuclear power is giant, cylindrical concrete cooling towers pouring out steam on a site that takes up hundreds of acres of land, soon there will be an alternative: tiny nuclear reactors that produce only one-hundredth the electricity and can even be delivered on a truck.
Small but meaningful amounts of electricity â nearly enough to run a small campus, a hospital or a military complex, for example â will pulse from a new generation of micronuclear reactors. Now, some universities are taking interest.
âWhat we see is these advanced reactor technologies having a real future in decarbonizing the energy landscape in the U.S. and around the world,â said Caleb Brooks, a nuclear engineering professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
