Maximum Possible Information in the universe?

Posted by in category: futurism

I remember hearing about this in one of the programs in discovery science. The physicist claimed that the maximum possible information in the universe is $10^{10^{123}}$ whereas the maximum possible information that can be known by man is $10^{10^{90}}$. Can anyone explain to me how can we arrive at such a specific number, and also how can information be represented by only numbers?

Will implants that meld minds with machines enhance human abilities?

Posted by in categories: computing, neuroscience

Brain computer interface will have to be significantly more advanced before there’s an enhancement of cognitive abilities.


Devices that let people with paralysis walk and talk are rapidly improving. Some see a future in which we alter memories and download skills – but major challenges remain.

Getting drugs into the brain is hard. Maybe a parasite can do the job

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience

A mind-bending parasite may one day deliver drugs to the brain.

Toxoplasma gondii is a single-celled parasite that famously makes mice lose their fear of cats, but also can cause deadly foodborne illnesses (SN: 1/14/20).


Those with weakened immune systems have a higher risk of developing severe disease when exposed to T. gondii. Pregnant people run the risk of preterm birth and pregnancy loss. In addition, the parasite can cause a variety of problems for the baby including blindness, hearing loss, epilepsy and jaundice. More than 200,000 cases of toxoplasmosis are diagnosed each year in the United States, with about 5,000 requiring hospitalization. An estimated 750 people each year die from the disease.

Mark Kelly Could Halt Plans To Crash The International Space Station

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, space

If Mark Kelly, the Space Shuttle pilot who played a pivotal role in assembling the International Space Station, is catapulted into the White House as Vice President, he could quickly help reverse the death sentence that NASA’s current leaders have placed on the ISS.

Now a widely popular U.S. senator and potential running mate of Kamala Harris, Kelly spent the first decade of the new millennium ferrying European and Japanese modules to the Station — and guiding gigantic robotic builders to put the ISS together — all while the outpost was circling the planet at 17,000 miles per hour.

The space hero — recently inducted into the pantheon of the greatest American astronauts — is likely part of a contingent of ISS spacefarers who back saving the orbiting icon from NASA’s death decree by boosting it into a higher orbit and transforming it into an eternal monument to human ingenuity, says Rick Tumlinson, a torchbearer in the “Save Our Station,” or SOS movement.
