China develops unique heat-resistant material for hypersonic aircraft
Chinese scientists have developed a new heat-resistant material for hypersonic aircraft which can endure over 3,000 C from friction caused by a Mach 5-20 flight within the atmosphere. The lead scientist on the project said the material outperforms all similar foreign-made ones with its high melting point, low density, and high malleability. The new material […]
Science and Medicine of New Paradigm
Science pursues truth. However, scientific quest for truth is confined in the frame of a paradigm. Gödel mathematically proved that for any system, there will always be statements that are true, but that are unprovable within the system. There always appear facts which cannot be explained by the current paradigm. Such fact can be judged […]

South Korean scientists manage to control proteins causing dementia
A team of South Korea researchers managed to control the formation and construction of molecular structure of a protein that causes neurological degenerative diseases such as dementia. The research team led by professor Om Kil Ho, Sungkyunkwan University, announced that they managed to control the composition and molecular structure of fibers “Amyloid” which causes Alzheimer and Parkinson […]
Robot Party: Expanding Robotics attraction in Korea
With the latest surge of films and TV shows with ‘conscious’ robots, I have developed an interest in the artificial intelligence and well, robots which can perfectly mimic human behavior. When I heard about Art Center Nabi’s Robot Party exhibition, I imagined it to be like something right out of Dr. Krieger’s lab (from the […]
