February 20, 2013 Everyone knows when a plane goes down, the first thing the investigators try to get is the black box recorder. The recorder can measure the actions of the pilots, record transmissions and also anything on their dash they may have seen. This week ended the public comment sessions to put a black box in every new car sold by September 1, 2014.
February 16, 2013 Many people shared stories of the fireball incident in Russia that injured over a thousand people. There was also talk of a large asteroid passing close to earth, which lead some to get a little uneasy. Is it time to call Bruce Willis and his team to detonate a nuclear weapon on the next asteroid?

The technological world could soon be brought to its knees by a series of pseudo-apocalyptic space storms that are predicted to sever the heads of the world’s communication centers, satellites, and public transportation systems.
It does not take the well trained nose of a beer aficionado to determine if a beer has gone bad or not. No sir; upscale brew connoisseur and backwoods drunkards alike know that there is only one word to describe the putrid scent of beer gone rotten – and that is “skunk.”

October 19, 2012 Introduce your child to a whole new world! The only time I've heard of learning about rockets was in school, or if you were a boy scout. Not anymore, thanks to the Duluth Children's Museum! Boys and Girls can now have a BLAST at the Young Scientists' Rocketry Workshop.
October 9, 2012 My husband showed me this video. A "come her honey and watch this" moment. I was busy and the last thing I wanted to do was watch a youtube video, but I'm glad I did. I was awestruck at what it takes to get the NASA Mars Rover into space and thought about the intricate accuracy of every detail it demonstrates.
