Science & Reality

Thinking about the newly returned Japanese mining probe.

It was a brilliant technical achievement. Kudos all round to them.

But it brought back only 1 tenth of 1 Gramm of material. Apparently the incoming probe weight about six and a half Kilo.
 
True, and it all helps to advance technology.

We still have a way to go to catch up to Bank's 'Minds' though.
 
I see that some people are now appearing as holograms at meetings.

Even ten years ago that would have been cutting edge, verging on sci-fi.
