Pentagon boosts two Seattle ventures working on nuclear-powered prototypes for space applications
Two Seattle companies have won Pentagon contracts to develop nuclear-powered prototypes for space applications, with orbital demonstrations set for 2027. The Defense Innovation Unit says Ultra Safe Nuclear Technologies has been tasked with demonstrating a chargeable, encapsulated nuclear radioisotope battery called EmberCore for propulsion and power applications in space. Plutonium-powered radioisotope batteries have been in use for decades, going back to the Apollo era.
It is nutty to believe that humans evolved from lower ape-like creatures. Bible in another context depicts God laughing at rebellion against Him. I suspect that God laughs at science belief that man evolved from lower creatures.

A Denisovan girl’s fossil tooth may have been unearthed in LaosIf confirmed, this tooth joins only a handful of fossils from Denisovans, who are known from ancient DNA pegging them as close Neandertal relatives. If this Denisovan died around 131k-164k years ago, then it happened at the time Sumatra, Java, & Borneo were connected to Asia. Now, did the species go farther south? Those 3 islands could hold clues. Or maybe it also reached the Philippines where Denisovan DNA is the highest. Declaring the age based on estimated ages of sediment? 😂. I estimate you have zero idea how old this tooth is. Did you just gender this person?
