Nanotechnology journalist, Douglas Mulhall(1) discussed issues related to climate, medicine and advanced technologies.
There is evidence of sudden climate change he said, citing a two-year period without summers that occurred in 536 AD, as well as another event 10,000 years ago that is confirmed by ice core samples and tree rings. He suggested that methane hydrate being released into the atmosphere, perhaps triggered by an asteroid, could be the cause of extreme climate shifts. The emerging field of nanotechnology may prove useful in the detection of changes in methane hydrate levels, he noted. For more information on nanotechnology he recommended the Cientifica(2) website.
Mulhall also reported on his research into "nanobacteria," which he believes is akin to living organisms and is implicated in illnesses associated with calcification such as heart disease. He theorized that nanobacteria protects itself by emitting a shell of calcium phosphate around it. One doctor who prescribes to this theory has been successfully treating patients with a combination of Tetracycline and EDTA, he said.

Transit of Venus

Starting at 10PM PDT, Venus began a 6-hour solar transit, as it passed directly between the Earth and the Sun. Appearing as a black dot across the surface of the sun, the passage was visible from Europe, Asia and the Middle East, as well for 2 hours on the East Coast of the U.S. The event could be viewed live on various webcasts posted on Space.com's Transit Headquarters or click here(1) to view an animation created by NASA.
