Moss Survives 9 Months in Space Vacuum

November 22nd, 2025

Via: American Association for the Advancement of Science:

Mosses thrive in the most extreme environments on Earth, from the peaks of the Himalayas to the sands of Death Valley, the Antarctic tundra to the lava fields of active volcanoes. Inspired by moss’s resilience, researchers sent moss sporophytes—reproductive structures that encase spores—to the most extreme environment yet: space. Publishing in the Cell Press journal iScience on November 20, their results show that over 80% of the spores survived 9 months outside of the International Space Station (ISS) and made it back to Earth still capable of reproducing, demonstrating for the first time that an early land plant can survive long-term exposure to the elements of space.

“Most living organisms, including humans, cannot survive even briefly in the vacuum of space,” says lead author Tomomichi Fujita of Hokkaido University. “However, the moss spores retained their vitality after nine months of direct exposure. This provides striking evidence that the life that has evolved on Earth possesses, at the cellular level, intrinsic mechanisms to endure the conditions of space.”


RAMpocalypse: AI Buildout Sends Memory Prices Skyrocketing

November 22nd, 2025

I bought a 32GB (2x16GB) kit of CORSAIR Vengeance 6000MHz CL30 DDR5 on November 25, 2024 for $99.99.

I thought I should buy another 32GB of that before prices rise…

The same product is $427.99 now. haha

With the AI boom and the rise of next-gen data centers in nearly every major city, as well as cloud-based computing, we’ve seen several reports in recent months of an unprecedented shortage of flash-based memory and storage expected in 2026. And as we’re heading into the final weeks of 2025, it sounds like the price hikes and limited availability are already here.

According to a new report from Reuters, Samsung Electronics is already raising the price on DDR5 memory modules by up to 60%. Prices for 32GB of DDR5 memory have increased from $149 in September to $239 in November. “The boom in artificial intelligence has stoked intense demand,” the report writes, noting that memory chips are included in the rush to purchase every high-end GPU that is currently being manufactured.


$1.2 Billion Suspicious Epstein Transactions? Wyden Demands Investigation After JP Morgan Failed To Report For Years

November 21st, 2025

Via: ZeroHedge:

On Thursday morning, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) called for an investigation into whether JPMorgan Chase deliberately concealed suspicious transactions by Epstein.

You really just need to look at Exhibit A in Wyden’s memo (dated Wednesday) based on unsealed court records: the number of transactions flagged as suspicious between 2002 – 2016, vs. a flurry of almost $1.3 billion in suspicious transactions that the bank scrambled to file right after Epstein died in jail awaiting trial.


CDC Changes Webpage To No Longer Reject The Possibility That Vaccines Cause Autism

November 21st, 2025

Via: USA Today:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recast the vaccine safety section of its website to question the long-held stance that vaccines do not cause autism, countering decades of scientific evidence showing them to be safe.

The U.S. public health agency’s website was changed on Nov. 19 to say that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.” It added that health authorities have “ignored” studies supporting the link between the two.

U.S. Could Collect DNA from Foreign Travelers

November 21st, 2025

Via: The Sun:

NEW security measures are being rolled out on December 26, and travelers could have to hand over their DNA to cross the US border.

Authorities will ask for a cache of personal information to combat anyone overstaying their welcome.

The new travel rules apply to any non-citizen who is entering or leaving America, government documents seen by Reuters reveal.

Starting next month, US border authorities will be allowed to photograph travelers at airports and use facial recognition to compare their information with existing records.

The records can be held for up to 75 years.


U.S. Government To Buy 10 Large, New Nuclear Reactors

November 20th, 2025

Via: ZeroHeadge:

Hot on the heels of news that it will invest “hundreds of billions” in loans to the nuclear power industry, including one already disbursed loan for $1BN to restart Three Mile Island, Bloomberg reported that the US government also plans to buy and own as many as 10 new, large nuclear reactors that could be paid for using Japan’s $550BN funding pledge, part of the Trump admin’s existential push to meet surging demand for electricity

The Energy Department’s chief of staff, Carl Coe, made comments today detailing the unusual arrangement related to the $550 billion in funding for US projects announced by Japan, Bloomberg reports.

“The role of having the government involved in private markets is sacrosanct — you just don’t do it,” Coe said at an energy conference hosted by the Tennessee Advanced Energy Business Council. “But this is a national emergency.”

Border Patrol Monitoring Drivers, Looking for “Suspicious Travel Patterns”

November 20th, 2025

Via: CBS News:

The U.S. Border Patrol is monitoring millions of American drivers nationwide in a secretive program to identify and detain people whose travel patterns it deems suspicious, The Associated Press has found.

The Border Patrol’s predictive intelligence program has resulted in people being stopped, searched and in some cases arrested. A network of cameras scans and records vehicle license plate information, and an algorithm flags vehicles deemed suspicious based on where they came from, where they were going and which route they took. Federal agents in turn may then flag local law enforcement.

Suddenly, drivers find themselves pulled over – often for reasons cited such as speeding, no turn signals or even a dangling air freshener blocking the view. They are then aggressively questioned and searched, with no inkling that the roads they drove put them on law enforcement’s radar.


Infant Vaccine Intensity Strongly Predicts Autism Rates Worldwide

November 19th, 2025

Via: Focal Points:

A new cross-national study from Italy’s National Research Council, spanning multiple developed countries across three continents, has identified a remarkably strong association between early-life vaccine intensity and autism prevalence. The number of vaccine types and doses administered before 12 months showed exceptionally high correlations with national autism rates.

A 1% increase in vaccine types before age one corresponded to a 0.47% increase in autism prevalence.

The correlation is enormous — r = 0.87 for vaccine types and r = 0.79 for vaccine doses. In regression models, vaccine intensity alone explained 81% of the variance in autism prevalence across nations.

This is not an isolated signal. It directly corroborates earlier U.S. state-level data from DeLong (2011) — and aligns with the 107 positive-association studies catalogued in the McCullough Foundation’s Landmark Autism Report.


“Potentially Transformative” Rare Earth Elements Discovery in Alaska

November 19th, 2025

Keyword: Potentially

Via: Discovery Alert:

Recent geological investigations at Graphite One’s Graphite Creek facility in Alaska have revealed a potentially transformative development for North American critical minerals energy security. In November 2024, the company confirmed the presence of five permanent-magnet rare earth elements within garnet-bearing rocks at the same location designated for graphite extraction in their February 2025 Feasibility Study. This Graphite One rare earth elements discovery positions Alaska’s Seward Peninsula as a potential source of two Defense Production Act Title III materials in a single mining operation.

The identified elements include neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, terbium, and samarium, each critical to permanent magnet manufacturing and defense applications. Furthermore, this development reflects broader mining industry trends towards dual-commodity operations that maximise resource utilisation from single deposits.

However, industry analysts emphasise that confirming elemental presence differs significantly from proving commercial viability. No resource estimates, metallurgical recovery data, or economic assessments for the rare earth component have been disclosed, leaving key questions about extraction feasibility unanswered.
