Young, wealthy, idealistic, Dan Merriweather has developed his astonishing paranormal powers to the point where he can manipulate matter and penetrate any man’s mind, anywhere on earth. Soon, through ‘mind voyages’, he has uncovered the terrifying fact that both the Americans and Russians possess installations which are developing Man’s limitless psychic potential – as a horrific weapon of mass-destruction.
Despite Dan’s precautions, his existence becomes known, the Russians are on his trail. A psychic American general sets out to track him down. to the international war merchants he represents a danger to be eliminated. Or a precious commodity – the ultimate weapon of terror. But he has prepared a strange and eerie hiding place to wait while he prepares his own plan for the future of the world. Soon comes his ultimatum to its leaders:
STOP THE MADNESS-OR I BEGIN TO DESTROY…

We recently updated our collection of human evolution skulls. Above we have a very beaten Neanderthal.
Neanderthals represent a fascinating look at the human evolutionary tree. As recently as 30,000 years ago, homo sapiens and Neaderthal’s coexisted. Evidence suggests that we even share close genetic material with other, which is to say at some point we humans and Neanderthal’s interbred.
Neanderthals not only shared physical traits with us, but also seemingly art and maybe even culture. To think that a close relative of ours was making art, as we were also making art is astounding.
More information!
So much science is being done on this right now, shedding new light on our close relatives seemingly daily. Check out the links (all from the last few years) below.

Astronomers theorize that collisions andmergers of small gas-rich galaxies result in the formation of massive galaxies. At the center, these objects contain a supermassiveblack hole (SMBHs) weighing more than one-million solar masses. When material accumulates onto a SMBH, the accretion disk surrounding it becomes extremely hot from the release of gravitational energy and it becomes very bright.
Astronomers refer to this process as active galactic nucleus (AGN) activity, and it’s different from the way stars generate energy via nuclear fusion reactions. They’re highly compact regions which have a much higher than normal luminosity over a significant portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. They’re the most luminous and persistent sources of electromagnetic radiation in the universe.
