#ScifiVsReality The era of global warming is over; the era of global boiling is here - António Guterres. How much #ClimateChange have you experienced already? New research shows that almost 50% of 15- 84-year-olds have undergone significant change. #FFF https://buff.ly/3ss5ryO

#ScifiVsReality This may sound a bit extra now, but scientists have managed to tattoo living cells with gold. Why? Well, to integrate technical devices into the body. Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep #BladeRunner #GoldTattoo #Scifi https://buff.ly/3qFC1g8

#ScifiVsReality Being heard is an essential part of society. A new brain implant that works with machine learning gives people who have not spoken their voices back for years. #BrainImplant #Scifi https://buff.ly/45IFfOL

#ScifiVsReality The effects of the climate crisis are evident. Is living underground, therefore, a solution? For a short time, certainly, but permanently can severely impact humans, such as vitamin D deficiency. #Scifi #FFF https://buff.ly/3spEqM5
#ScifiVsReality Microplastics can cross our brain-blood barrier. Old microplastics in our blood are more toxic to our brain cells than new #microplastics. This can cause severe inflammatory reactions. 390 tonnes of plastic are produced every year. #Scifi https://buff.ly/3E4T8La

#ScifiVsReality 3D printing is not only an exciting technology for hobbyists. Doctors have printed a nose and then attached it to the patient's arm to ensure blood circulation - the patient now has a nose again—a great opportunity. #3dPrint #Scifi https://buff.ly/45ieKQn

#ScifiVsReality Researchers have made a significant breakthrough in developing the first vaccine against the Epstein-Barr virus. The virus can lead to #cancer and #MS. It targets the lymph nodes of mice, which play a key role of the immune system. #Scifi https://buff.ly/3s6D4pG

#ScifiVsReality Linking an older mouse to a younger mouse extends its lifespan by 10%. As impressive as the results may seem, they are nowhere near enough to support human blood transfusions. And the young mice did not benefit from the experiment. #Scifi https://buff.ly/452dxfG
#ScifiVsReality New studies show that short workouts are very effective for muscle-building -36 seconds a month. This means these 36 eccentric biceps contractions can achieve impressive physical results with just three weekly training sessions. #Scifi https://buff.ly/3Jg9KQT
#ScifiVsReality Certain smells can increase brain power. Cognitive decline can be slowed if scents are sprayed every night before sleep. The scents strengthen the connection in the brain and stimulate it. #brain #Scifi https://buff.ly/47jzE2S
#ScifiVsReality Covid is not over: People who have no symptoms of covid disease have a specific gene mutation. Another gene mutation also helps people who have never been infected but still have immune cells. #Covid #CovidIsntOver https://buff.ly/44YVuqC

#ScifiVsReality Young and old benefit from multi-generation houses. The City of Vienna has a housing platform called "wohnbuddy" in which young people who cannot afford expensive housing live with older people to support them in everyday life. #Scifi https://www.wohnbuddy.com/
#ScifiVsReality Most innovations come from the military or space travel. Newly developed solar collectors can repair themselves if they are damaged by space radiation. This increases the reliability of energy sources for satellites and spacecraft. #Scifi https://buff.ly/44AjdO3
#ScifiVsReality Unsurprisingly, a vegan diet is better for the planet than a meat-rich diet. Vegans have only 30% of the dietary environmental impact of meat-rich eaters. No matter how bad an avocado is, it’s always better than meat. #Scifi #FFF https://buff.ly/46VeZlD
#ScifiVsReality After a man was paralysed in a bicycle accident, he can walk again with the help of Bluetooth. An implant reads the actions sent by the brain and sends them digitally to the spine. The device was developed by Swiss neuroscientists. #Scifi https://buff.ly/3MUJXCr
#ScifiVsReality Faith in science is cracked. The assumption that education has an influence on the acceptance of science could not be confirmed. The study also shows that openness to opinion changes is an influential factor. #Scifi #Science https://buff.ly/3KcHBge

#ScifiVsReality Simple solution: Researchers at Purdue University announced that they had developed the whitest paint - so white that it can reflect over 98% of light. If the paint is used in a building, it would lower the surface temperature. #Scifi #FFF https://buff.ly/44usbfq
#ScifiVsReality Doctors were sure that a patient's new heart would be rejected after the transplant, her liver was transplanted simultaneously to prevent this. It's unclear why a donated liver reduce the chances of the heart's rejection. #Scifi #HALT https://buff.ly/3O1Lt51
#ScifiVsReality Let's start with the good news: no more official chemical weapons exist. The last chemical weapons were destroyed in the USA last week—a disarmament milestone. #Scifi #ChemicalWeapons https://buff.ly/3DeKPw3

#ScifiVsReality Nuclear fusion is a reaction that powers the sun. This technology has the potential to halve the travel time to planets. The drive can only be tested when the fusion rocket engine can be operated in 2027. #Scifi #NuclearFusion https://bit.ly/3pLSFKj
