The shocking death of a 4-year-old Sellersville boy on the Mission: Space ride at Disney World last week had many people talking about the effects of centrifugal force on human beings. To understand ...

This year's episode of Punkin Chunkin is coming up (I think tomorrow). Discovery just showed a teaser commercial with the specifications for one team's machine. If you are not familiar with Punkin ...

Space travel is incredibly taxing on the human body – and ironically, one of the best ways to simulate that is by staying in bed for long periods. The lack of gravity in space means that muscles and ...
