Have you ever wanted your toy to turn into a robot? Well you should hear about the new “robotic skins” which can instantly transform any object into a robot capable of performing basic tasks, like sprinting or climbing. Made using elastic polymer or fabric, the flexible robotic skins can be easily wrapped around objects of all shapes and sizes. They are equipped with sensors as well as air pouches that inflate when pumped with gas, and/or nickel-titanium coils which contract when heated by an electric current. When activated, they help manipulate the object the skins are wrapped around and bring it to “life.” short video below shows a stuffed horse toy wearing the skins.

Did you know that eating your Halloween pumpkin is good for you? Not only is it good for you, it is also good for the planet. Scientists estimate that about 18,000 tons of edible pumpkin innards are thrown away each year! That is the equivalent of over 100,000 pumpkin pies. About 1.3 billion pumpkins are thrown away each year which is a shame because the seeds are delicious and if we didn’t throw them away, a lot more families probably would have food.

Habitable zones are zones where it’s not too hot or too cold, just right for life. Scientists, Alex Teachey and David Kipping have been looking for a planets with moons for about a decade and now think it all paid off. This mysterious planet is not yet verified by Hubble telescope, but even it might find the moon because it is very big. Soon after a lot of research the planet probably was just gas and couldn’t be landed on, but if Kepler 1625b’s moon is confirmed real, our perspective of our moon might change based on Kepler 1625b’s probably real moon.

A red tide happens when an algae that gives out toxins that can hurt people and marine life, grows out of control. The algae can also make the water look red or brown. This is the worst red tide Florida has had since 2006. Although red tides are common in Florida, they usually last only a few months.

Even though a 2014 study said daylight savings time can put adults at risk for certain health problems, having more light in the evening does have health benefits . For one thing, it lets kids and grown ups be more active outside after school or work. This means they get more exercise. Daylight savings time also saves energy. With more daylight hours, we use less electricity. Lastly, daylight savings time is good for the economy. Longer evenings encourage people to do more shopping.

More than 3,800 people selected to participate in a study that people at University College London are doing record their levels of happiness, anxiety, and other emotions at four specific times over the course of a single day. The participants, who were between the ages of 52 and 79 when the study began, were divided into three groups according to how happy and positive they felt. Five years later, 7% of people in the least happy group had died, compared with just 4% in the happiest group and 5% in the middle group. the happiest and medium-happy people were 35% and 20% less likely to have died, respectively, than their gloomier counterparts.

Fiona, a hippo born at the Cincinnati zoo, was born six weeks premature.
Bibi, Fionas mom was due to have Fiona in late February to early March. Instead, Bibi had Fiona on January 24. Newborn hippos usually weigh from 50 to 120 pounds. Fiona was 29 pounds.
The caretakers were amazed she lived. Fiona was so weak, she couldn’t stand on her own. If she had been born in the wild, she would have died.
Fionas keepers knew they had a tough task ahead. There was no record of a premature hippo being born, let alone surviving.
Early on, the staff cared for her 24-7. Literally. They had to make sure she was getting the proper nourishment, and since she was too weak to drink from  Bibi, the staff had to bottle feed her. And hippos eat a lot. Even if they are small. They also had to keep Fionas body temperature warm all the time, and keep her skin moist. It was a lot of work. But in the end, Fiona ended up surviving, and not only that, she was an online star too. Today Fiona is a happy hippo who can stand up and play with other hippos.

He’s does this by sitting in the middle of the road. Another crazy thing that smoke does is chase children. He waits at bustops  and when kids get off the bus he starts to chase them. He also goes up to strangers and starts gobbling at them. Despite the fact that smoke is a troublemaker, the people in the town love smoke and have even named the town mayor. Smoke can now be found on t-shirts
and on his Facebook page! The bad thing about Smoke is that since he’s so popular now if people see him while driveling it might be dangerous for them to take a picture while still paying attention to the road. A nearby animal sanctuary has been trying to capture smoke for months but claims he has “ninja like moves” that make him very difficult to catch

Chengdu, a Chinese city, plans to create artificial moons to save their citizens money on lights each night. Wu Chunfeng, the chairmen of the Chengdu Aerospace Science and Technology Microelectronics System Reserch Institute, has recently announced that they will release an artificial moon to provide their city, and places in need of light when they don’t have any, light. Chunfeng says that the first moon-like orb will appear in the sky as soon as 2020. Wu Chungfeng made this announcement at the National Mass innovation and Enterpreneurship Conference, which was held in Chengdu started on October 9 and went to October 15, 2018.
The plan was for the “moon’s” light would come from the sun and then reflect onto the Earth because of it‘s special coating that acts as a mirror. The “moon” will appear eight times brighter than the actual moon due to the fact that the “moon” would only be a mere 300 miles above Chengdu. Luckily, the amount of light being reflected can be toggled on and off or would be able to change the amounts of light.
The Chengdu Aerospace estimate that using the artificial moon to like up 31 square miles of the night sky, would save the city about 1.2 billion yuan ($174 million). The “moon” also has the ability to move so that if there’s a disaster-struck city, they would be able to use the “moon” to provide light if they have lost power.
However, it is said that the moon will not be as big as people imagined, The artificial orb would simply be a bright star if sorts, but that doesn’t mean it’s less effective. It could still help places in need and that’s what matters.

New Virual Reality Water Slide
The waterslide  is located at Europe’s biggest water park Galaxy Erding in South Germany. It opened in February 2018, and riders have the choice of coasting through three different worlds. Snow, Sky, and Space.To ride the slide all you have to do is put on the VR headset and push off! While VR roller coasters aren’t new, VR water slides are because getting the delicate headset to be waterproof is a complicated task. The ride is 160 meters or 520 feet and last about 35. To make it even better the slide has two hills that you go up! That makes it more roller coaster-like.

Gymnastics is one of the hardest sports for young adults in their teens and 20’s. Imagine being 43 years old and is still competing! Oskana Chusovinita does just that. She won the USSR junior National championship at age 13 and she won the silver medal in the vault at the 2018 Asian games in Indonesia on August 23, 2018. “Over the last 30 years, the elite athlete has won a total of 32 medals, including 2 Olympic and 11 world championship medals.” (3). Oskana has five moves named after her. Two on vault, two on uneven bars, and one on floor exercise. She now focuses on the vault constantly trying to achieve more at age 43. At the 2016 olympics she attempted the “vault of death” a hard routine that involves a handspring followed by a double summersalt. She didn’t complete it but her effort was “reflective of the gift and competitive spirit Chusovitina has demonstrated through her distinguished gymnastics career.” (5).  She’s not done yet. In the 2018 olympics a reporter asked her if it was her final tournament she responded “No! I want to go to Tokyo!” If she qualifies for the 2020 Olympics she will be the oldest Olympic gymnast in 100 years.

Dogs can actually understand what you say.

A recent study by scientists at Emory University in Atlanta shows that dogs indeed know what their owner is saying. to test this they asked owners of 12 different dog breeds to train their dogs to identify 2 different toys such as, a stuffed animal and a ball. Once they learned the task they put them in a scanner and holding up toys they had been trained to recognize and saying meaningless words while holding up toys they had not seen before. The scans showed different brain patterns with toys they had seen and heard before than the ones they hadn’t. It isn’t enough to prove they picture their toy when they  hear the word, but it shows recognition and scientists think this this is an important step to understanding how dogs process language.
