Is it science fact or science fiction? Futurism presents both sides to determine the truth.
The Moon Landing Conspiracy Theory
**THIS IS SIMPLY A THEORY, NOT MEANT TO DEFAME OR INSULT ANY COMPANIES, PEOPLE, COUNTRIES, AND ANY OTHER PARTIES** The moon landing was widely debated and still is to this day; was it real or was it simply a hoax? I do have my beliefs when it comes to this, but I'll get to that later.

The Implausibility of Popular Sci-Fi Aliens - Part Three
Communicating and interacting in any meaningful way with a truly alien species might prove extremely difficult, and perhaps impossible. In this concluding part of the trilogy, we will investigate some of the truly alien species and civilisations depicted in less mainstream sci-fi, and discuss the difficulties we might have communicating and interacting with them.

The Mandela Effect
See anything wrong with the above quote? Well, of course you don't, it's one of the most iconic pop culture references ever. For decades, people have been quoting this scene from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes back, but have they been quoting it wrong?

The Origin of the Universe
There are several theories about the origin of this wonderful and complex system we call the universe, I refer to it is a system since it has multiple sub-systems, such as galaxies, stars, among others, that develop with constant expansion in a way amazing, without a doubt, nothing more fascinating than the origin of things, but although the evidence supports the theory of the big bang, there are many ideas, some more outlandish than others, which try to explain this interesting phenomenon, the origin of the universe.

How Real Is Real?
Humans have sought to explain reality since of the dawn of our species. Our thirst for the answers of the unknown is the driving force behind all innovations and advancements. When answers could not be found, we developed religion to fill in the gaps. Over time, we proposed the scientific method to measure the material world and interpret it through an empirical lens. In modern times, both spirituality and science are believed to be polar opposites with one being "faith" and the other being "realistic." Today, I want to challenge both perspectives to answer the life-long question: what is real and how real is real?

Jobs of the Future. Top Story - December 2018.
Let's look at jobs that may be created 25 years from now: 1. Euthanasia Specialist: Before I continue, may I remind people that I neither condone or condemn euthanasia. In fact, I lean more towards the condemnation side. Understand that I'm just the messenger. I'm merely forecasting the jobs I see coming to humanity, whether they be good or evil. As explained in my Hub Death Culture, mainly due to the demographics of an aging population across North America and Europe, I unfortunately have to seriously consider that euthanasia businesses may be the biggest entrepreneurial prospect in the near future. The only thing stopping this train from coming is laws. Laws that I don't expect to hold or last. Where there’s entrepreneurial opportunity, you can bet the jobs will certainly follow.

Weather Magick During Fire Season in California
Weather magick has been used in California to make the storms come and take care of the Camp Fire blazing inferno, which had started on November 8 but has now been contained on November 25th, 2018. There has been destruction left in its wake. I have been troubled during this fire since I live in San Jose, surrounded by dry hills that could very well light up someday. The fire had burned 240 square miles, destroying a lot of Paradise, California in one day. Those of us who practice witchcraft have tried to make sure the fire didn’t get too out of control since some of us no doubt brought the rain.

Psychic Attack
Psychic attack is the meanest thing we earth humans can do to each other. It involves thoughts becoming things, and sending a lethal negative thought to someone becomes possible. Some thinketh that thoughts are things. Thoughts are real and can harm somebody. My family is into sending out negative thought forms to me, which I have to neutralize all the time. Psychic attack is a way to use the energy of thought to harm somebody. It is a deliberate attack as deliberate as mean words, snide remarks, sarcasm, and other forms of emotional abuse including rudeness.

We Have All Time Traveled
You know that feeling of déjà vu? When something feels so familiar, you must have experienced it before? We have all felt it at some time or another. Sometimes it is a little thing like a place you have never been to seeming familiar. Other times it is a big thing where you hear someone speaking and you know what they will say and how you will answer because it is like watching a scene from a movie for a second time. We have all felt it and passed it off as just an odd occurrence. But what if it is something more happening? What if that sense of déjà vu is actually a sign of how the whole space time continuum works?
