In the colloquial sense, a telescope is about how far we can see. But for astronomers, or specifically astrophysicists, it is about how far back in time. Cutting edge cosmology is all about studying the universe's past, about how it came into being, and about what will become of it in the far flung future.

This is why the world's scientific community came together to develop what may be our greatest achievement yet as a species: the James Webb Space Telescope.

As the world is beginning to choke itself from all the pollution in the air, one wonders why we are still dilly-dallying on adopting alternative energies. It's not something new, as a matter of fact, solar power - which is now our cheapest source of clean energy - has been around for more than a century.

If there's anyone to blame it's the Victorians...

Throughout the history of our species, we have changed more or less to adapt to whatever nature had thrown at us. We have lost some abilities, and had gained new ones. But where is humanity heading? What will we lose? And what will we gain?

"Vestigial Organs" is a story of  a future society's reaction when biology sends a throwback.

Back in the 1970s and 1980s, mathematicians working in an area called dynamical systems made use of the ever-advancing computing power to draw computer images of the objects they were working on. What they saw blew their minds: infinitely repeating structures whose beauty and complexity is only rivalled by nature itself.

​At the heart of them lay the Mandelbrot set, which today has achieved fame even outside the field of mathematics.

With the new advancements in gene editing, DNA has became a much talked about subject. Most people get the gist of what it is and its purpose, but how did we come to distill our understanding of life into a single strand of molecule?

​This is the story of how it all came about...
