…3. John Paul Stapp In 1954, US Air Force medical researcher John Paul Stapp earned the title “the Fastest Man Alive” when he rode a rocket-powered sled to a then-world record land speed of 632 mph (1.017 km/h), going from a standstill to a speed faster than a 45-caliber bullet in five seconds. He then screeched to a dead stop in 1.4 seconds, sustaining a force equivalent to 46.2 times…

Bicholim Conflict: fictitious war for Goan independence that fooled Wikipedia for five years

After five years of featuring the Bicholim Conflict, Wikipedia has admitted the entire conflict and books cited as sources for the piece are fictional

“Bicholim Conflict” was voted a “good article” – a Wikipedia badge of honor – and sat happily on the online encyclopedia for more than half a decade.

Is Theory of Relativity wrong? Breaking light speed.

The scientists at CERN found that neutrinos are travelling 60 billionths of a second quicker than the light speed limit allowed

Physicists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), the international nuclear research facility near Geneva, Switzerland, are saying that an experiment in which a beam of neutrinos were sent 500 miles from CERN to a laboratory in Italy has thrown up a quite staggering result. Specifically, the specialists found that the particles got there 60 billionths of a second quicker than t…

Hirisplex: forensic test predicts hair and eye color using DNA left at crime scene

Scientists have developed Hirisplex, a forensic test that can predict both the hair and eye color of a possible suspect using DNA left at a crime scene

…for hair. In the study, the authors used Hirisplex to predict hair color phenotypes in a sample drawn from three European populations. On average, their prediction accuracy was 69.5% for blonde hair, 78.5% for brown, 80% for red and 87.5% for black hair color. Analysis on worldwide DNA samples suggested the results were similar regardless of a person’s geographic ancestry. The team was also…
