Are we worried about border shut-downs or having our liberties curtailed, like most responsible timely talk show hosts these days? Not really.. Our minds this week are out elsewhere, mostly way out there, .  In the news this week  we look forward to a new perfume fragrance, coming from outer space, Eau de Space Vacuum Spray, “with a deep metallic base that is balanced by a subtle yet seductive fiery undertone, helping men, women and children everywhere enjoy their float through the cosmos.” And that’s just the first story, from a Lockheed Martin press release, dated April 1.. Enjoy the show!

Our Bay area scientists will literally have a field day this summer as they get their hands on some moon rocks, cyrogenically stored from the Apollo 17 mission of 1972 to the moon. And now the most Mars-like environment on Earth, Canada’s remote Devon Island, can be explored on Street View, thanks to Google.

The big news this week are all the announcements from Apple, especially their foray into entertainment and finance, with their very own credit system. With the help of our Apple analyst Taylor Barcroft, we take a closer look at what’s up in the Apple universe. Mrs. Future gives a little background on digital money and where it might be going, we look at some research in canine empathy, and a geoengineering proposal for cooling the planet.  Lots to think about this week, enjoy!

Big news in the gaming world, with Google launching Stadia, their high performance cloud gaming service, add AI and object recognition to your robots with Nvidia’s $99 board computer, and we must wonder why an entire solar system with star was kicked out of the Milky Way family..hmm…passing bad gas?  Once we have the new Halo interstellar drive we could do an upclose investigation, even though the star was ejected at a phenomenal speed of a million miles an hour!

Back on this planet, the mostlly female millenial Nordic group known at the Northern Star Team are researching the future of education in the Bay area and give us a report on their findings so far. Though their results are preliminary, it does appear that we can look forward to more fun and passion in the educational process..

Did you ever notice that dogs have a sense of North and South?  Observational research shows that they often poop on the North/South access (after circling around a couple of times).  And new research shows that some humans have this ability as well. Who knew and what can these folks do with this hidden superpower? Enjoy..
