This Superconducting Magnet Has Shattered The Record For World’s Strongest
Posted by Shane Hinshaw in category: futurism
If you want to stick something on your fridge, like really get it stuck on hard there, you might want to talk to the scientists at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. They’ve just build the most powerful superconducting magnet ever, shattering the world record.
Its magnetic field clocks in at 32 tesla in strength. That’s 33 percent higher than the previous record, and 3,000 times stronger than a small fridge magnet, making this a larger increase than all the improvements in superconducting magnets from the last 40 years combined.
“This is a transformational step in magnet technology, a true revolution in the making,” said MagLab Director Greg Boebinger.

The human race has peaked and will now get worse, scientists confirm
Posted by Aleksandar Vukovic in category: futurism
Humanity has reached its peak and is now probably in its downfall, according to major new research.
People have long thought of human development as one long process of improvement, going on forever. But we are now running up against the limits of how good we can be, say scientists – and most likely we’ll now just begin to fall again.
The major research review looked at 120 years of data and found that there appears to be limits on our characteristics, like when we die, how tall we can be and how strong we are. We are pushing up against those limits now, the research suggests.
