For roughly a decade, the dominant consensus in neuroscience has held that psychedelic drugs push the human brain into a state of heightened chaos. According to this standard model, the neatly segregated brain networks responsible for processing sensory input, directing attention, and maintaining a stable sense of self begin to break down. Boundaries blur, cross-talk […]
As low-Earth orbit grows increasingly crowded with commercial internet constellations, scientific platforms, and military assets, space has enough physical room to accommodate massive numbers of new satellites—provided that every entity operating in orbit is willing to transparently share precise location data and planned flight paths. That warning was delivered by a top executive representing both […]
