Day 7 writing prompt

Madelyn Perkovich

Today, movies about the future include high technology, flying cars, and other obvious futuristic things. obviously, there is no certain way to tell what the future will be like. Who knows, Yellowstone could erupt tomorrow and there would be no future, or we'd have to start all over. For me, I believe the future will consist of higher technology and new understanding of what we already know. For example, I think in the far future we will have a hologram that can give us detailed updates on our body/health at any time. I also think this could potentially lead to fewer illnesses and maybe a larger population unless the governments regulate the number of kids a couple can have.I also believe that cars will all run on batteries, or maybe even fly. People will probably be more ethnically diverse, and potentially smarter. I think the education system may be different as well, because we might possibly be able to chip ourselves with certain information instead of sitting in a class everyday. But, to be extreme, we may have done enough damage to our planet by then that we need to figure out how to live on a different one (possibly Mars), and who knows, maybe space travel will be so advanced by then that people will be able to take trips and tours to mars just for fun whenever they want. I feel like a type of hologram technology will eventually replace cell phones and make them obsolete. But then again, I don't really know what i'm talking about because I will never live to see any of these things anyway. My main and only wish for the future is world peace.

Madelyn Perkovich        I'm not going to lie, my heart beat pretty fast reading this one. I've always been interested in science, particularity physics. Exploring theories on human existence and the composition of our universe can entertain me for hours, it leaves me with the adrenaline of something bigger, heavier, and deeper than day to day life. This is probably the craziest, most mind blowing theory I've read, and before you think its ridiculous, please read the article. So, are we just a computer simulation ? This is actually a legit scientific hypothesis. Moderator Neil DeGrasse Tyson believes it to be as high as a 50/50 chance we are just a program on someones hard drive. Reading on this previously, it is said that a higher up universe, or advanced people from the future could want to simulate the past for entertainment or ancestral purposes. Computers this advanced to make up an entire existence are not far out of reach, even for us. As for prov...

Day 4 news response

Madelyn Perkovich            Today I read an article about a bizarre star that keeps repeatedly dimming in our solar system. Astronomers can't figure out exactly why, either. Typically, stars can dim when clouds of dust or gas pass over them, but these two instances typically have certain characteristics associated with such circumstances. Astronomers are almost certain there is no way it could be either of these things. "Tabby Star" (the stars nickname) is being closely watched by a number of telescopes all with different functions of observation. One theory astronomers are suggesting is that the dimming is due to a Dyson Sphere, a mega structure used by advanced or alien civilization to retain energy from the star to support the civilization. So, in conclusion, Tabby star may be proof that alien life forms exist, and are feeding off its energy the same way we do with our sun.

Day 5 news response

Madelyn P. Advances in medicine continue to become more complex, though i think this one is fairly simple. New research has led scientists and doctors to believe there is a link between impaired smell and neurodegenerative diseases. Alzheimers and Parkinsons may be closely linked to sense of smell, and doctors may be able to predict the onset of the disease by a simple smell test. studies have even shown that impaired sense of smell may be an even better predictor of these diseases than memory loss. This could be an incredible advance for the medical field in diagnosing people earlier, and apparently already has been.
