Science notes

They have mapped the genome of the coffee bean. I really find things like this fascinating. The more we pull away the curtains on how life is built I wonder what we can make and create for our future as a species. Just think a merged coffee/chocolate plant ;)

Also a British firm has been given the go ahead to try cloning a human. This is an area that the US needs to improve in. Someone will crack the cloning and gene therapy for humans and they will usher in a new age. I would rather it be the United States than someone else. I think we cannot stick our heads in the sand and ignore it. Any thoughts?

NASA just tested a solar sail. Another science fiction idea works its way to science fact.

Ad Astra Per Aspera!
