Using a superconductive gyroscope, scientists have created gravity in the lab. There’s mention that “this effect could form the basis for a new technological domain, which would have numerous applications in space and other high-tech sectors,” but no more detail on possible applications than that. Being the SF guy I am, though I have to …
What have I been doing all weekend? Mostly directing Rope, Patrick Hamilton’s classic 1929 thriller (best-known today in its Alfred Hitchock movie version) for Regina Little Theatre.

Researchers have created the first molecular-machine combination. It twists and swims – and little else – but the first combination of two molecular machines is an important step on the long path to nanodevices sophisticated enough to, for example, perform repair functions within our cells. We live in a science fictional world, and any predictions …
