THE FUTURE IS HERE....

Just three bits on the news today:

Asimo 10th Anniversary.

Asteroid impact warning to the world

Experts are calling on the world to recognise the "global threat" of an asteroid hit to earth.

They´ve been holding a three-day workshop in Germany, discussing how countries would react.

The conference in the city of Darmstadt is considering theoretical but plausible scenarios of an asteroid impact on our planet.

"The question often arises in the general public: Can we in fact do something about this. And the answer is yes. We don't even have to develop new technologies. Our existing space technology enables us to actually slightly change the orbit of an asteroid that we see headed an impact 15 or 20 or 50 years ahead of us."


Humans could be sent to Mars 'one-way'

Humans could be sent to Mars one-way as part of Nasa plans to permanently colonise other planets.

Scientists have confirmed that they are looking into the possibility sending astronauts to other planets by 2030.

It would take the volunteers nine months to get to the red planet, and they would leave knowing they would never see Earth again.

That is because it would cost too much to fly them back.

Perfecto, te espero con ansiedad. Es duro hacer cambios y comprendo que pudieras tener problemas de adaptacion, muchos años en londres y ya eras un ingles mas y claro ahora volver a ser español es duro.
Hasta pronto
