FIRMA Energywear update
The previous article posted on the FIRMA company provided a link to the site itself, which helpfully describes all of the technology and benefits associated with wearing the clothing. Upon some further digging, I have only seen pure positive regard to the effectiveness of the clothing in providing the benefits the site boasts. Indeed, FIRMA lives up to its claims, and its creator, Yvonne Hogenes, wrote a brief description herself of the benefits, confirming that yes, such technology has been a popular topic for advanced clothing manufactures interested in providing top performance, that is, the nano-crystal infused fibers of the weave. In a way, the clothing bonds and becomes a part of you, sharing and regulating your energy and heat levels, truly defining technological advancement infused with mankind. As for me, I find it interesting in regards to the capabilities of the clothing as beneficial for space program crews. One of the most prevalent side-effects of space travel, or any endured stay in low gravity environments, the human body loses muscle mass, the skin sags, and health overall depletes. Could FIRMA reduce if not negate these negative effects? Possibly, and why not? While maintaining full body tissue support, delivering energy to the weakened muscles, and maintaining body warmth and circulation ( circulation being challenged when there is no gravity), I would hypothesize that even if it was not a true fix, FIRMA would be the best option for space crews on long, off-earth ventures.

FIRMA Energywear- Blake Smith
The link provided leads you to an amazing technology actively on sale and production known as, well, look at the title. In short, there are incredible health benefits of wearing this highly advanced clothing, all of which you can find provided within the sites section about them. In order to avoid plagiarism, I will not post those articles here, and rather than take the long time to restate them in my own words, I encourage you to please explore the link provided: http://www.firmaenergywear.com/
Spray-On Clothing Redefines Fashion, Art, and Practicality- Blake Smith
Early last year (2012), chemists resurfaced a technology that had already been toyed with years ago; spray-on clothing and fabrics. As funny as it may sound, such a development is now at the cusp of commercial accessibility, presented by the "Fabrican" company. The chemist creator, Dr. Manel Torres, said that he was inspired to create a quicker and easier to wear clothing when he witnessed people being sprayed with silly string at a friends wedding. Not unlike silly string, the concoction is shaken and sprayed over the body, and quickly binds and weaves itself into a form fitting, and comfortable skin like layer. What's more amazing, is that this spray-on fabric doesn't stick, it simply applies, and can be torn, or taken off like you would any normal shirt. But this on the spot clothing can go even further, in that it can be machine washed and hold together for more use; not just a one time shot, so to say. But there are other applications that simply futuristic apparel; medical applications are already in the works, as a form of instant-on gauze, bandages, and casts to support broken bones. This is reminiscent of the ever handy medical device in the popular sci-fi game series of "Mass Effect" wich features the use of " Medigel" as a form of instantly applied wound sealant. With some work, the fabric can also be turned into fireproof spray, damage repair, emergency blankets, fragrances,and so much more that it really stretches the imagination. What is great for nature, is that the spray is totally naturally made, with no harsh chemicals or unnatural substances. Some have proposed the the clothing be bonded with the scientifically advanced "Aerogel" , to customize the clothing...truly, wearable tech. Made of carbon nanofibers, and conductive as well, this clothing can easily become integrated with technology that can benefit the wearer.

NASA is building a massive rocket.
NASA is building a new rocket that will take humans to Mars and deep space asteroids. This is exciting news! We are moving on from rovers to having humans in the stars.

The power of water
This was about two weeks ago, so I don't have all the details. Scientists in California have made the worlds most powerful laser. Instead of using this massive laser (Which burns through metal) to, well, burn things, they boiled water with it. Whats so important about that? The particles in the water got super excited, and with nano technology scientists think they can harness the energy of excited water to power our lives. If all the kinks get worked out, a huge city like L.A could be powered for a day...with one cup of water. Imagine what this can do not only for cheap, clean energy, but for fuel. What if this was managed into generators? Water in this manner couldn't propel a ship, but may be compact enough to fuel electronics on a long journey.

Welcome to a point further in time.
This blog is about a mixture of science, and imagination. We can predict what the future will hold, the technologies, discoveries, and what we may meet. A fun part about thinking ahead- it hasn't happened yet, and this lets the mind wander. Whether the posts be on tech, ideas, life in the universe, or even Sci-Fi series, such as Mass Effect, let this place be where the mind can soar to new limits.
