News Item:
I just don't know what to make of this. I realize that the security services can be paragons of misinformation, but I can't find any motive as to why they would put this information out there:

"All about Nothing" Presentation:
My presentation intro, a short snippet; can space be stretched to the point of creating an absolute vacuum?

An overview of the vacuum through the ages up to the present day; learned men discuss it:

If you thought nothing was simple and straightforward, here's the vacuum seen from the perspective of Quantum mechanics:

Space is 'something'. Billions coming from the Sun pass through your body every second...even at night, when the Earth has turned you away from the Sun.
It takes a light year of lead to stop the path of neutrinos.

Due to time constraints, I did not include this in my presentation. Science attempting the cooling of matter to absolute zero. Doesn't succeed, but it becomes a very strange and interesting realm:

When Physics and Quantum Mechanics can'y agree on the Vacuum:

Some personal speculations: If an absolute vacuum could be created, how would the space fabric likely respond?

"The Jet-stream" presentation:

A pretty good explanation of the Jet-stream; how it works, what it does:

Never mind any temporary moment of the weather; see for yourself what's around the corner. Continually updated, interactive. The coolest forecast information map I have seen to date:

...Because the acquisition of clean water in our town is not only a science, but a necessity, especially in the San Miguel de Allende area:
SMA Rotary Club rests upon a foundation of compassion and science, so it too gets a heads up from SciTechNature.
