Looking back - a year of learning
With the year drawing to a close, and 51 weeks completed I wanted to use this final entry of the year to reflect on the year and what maintaining this blog has taught me over the last 12 months.
Space Force - not the Netflix one
Another slice of science fiction became a reality at the end of last year when the US launched the United States Space Force and while the Team America : World-Police and Star Trek logo jokes are levelled at the newly minted department, the need for a space force continues to grow.
Fake News, not just an election problem
As America moves towards another controversial election and everyone seems poised to oppose any result and point to "fake news" and "Russian accounts" that are convincing people to side one way or the other there remain a whole host of other services that are at risk of being overloaded, mislead or compromised all by using basic devices and very little technical knowledge.
Microevolution - what's next?
With the recent study on human evolution identifying major evolutionary changes in humans over the past couple of centuries, analysing the steps that brought them about may provide clues for what may be next.
Climate control - a dusting of sci-fi or billionaire boys club?
As Bill Gates' plan for filling the atmosphere with dust particles to in order to combat climate change moves another step closer to reality, it continues to draw attention [and some alarm] from the scientific community.

The role of automation in security systems design and delivery
Every year we are offered a slew of new “tech” and “trends” set to “revolutionize” the security industry.

Where's the middle gone? - the politicising of science.
Is it so much to as for a science show to stick to science? Or if it *must* bring politics into the discussion to have equal representation or at least a modicum of accountability for the poorly thought through comments that seem to litter their broadcasts?
