Now astronauts can drink their own urine...

Weird sci-fi... or is it a fact?Dont be surprised, this is real. The cost of bringing water to orbit is not cheap. So NASA got to find the alternative which can convert urine, sweat, and exhaled air into pure water... where astronauts could use it for drinking, personal hygiene and oxygen generation."toast...!.... yummy!"Can you see that? ... they really.. really enjoy the drink..Let me predict

The crust of neutron stars is 10 billion times stronger than steel, according to new simulations. That makes the surface of these ultra-dense stars tough enough to support long-lived bulges that could produce gravitational waves detectable by experiments on Earth. Neutron stars are the cores left behind when relatively
