http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/ac6d672106aa411fe594a24028f96688.jpgMichael Bay has a long and storied Hollywood career as both a director and a producer.

As anyone familiar with Bay's resume can attest, films directed by Bay typically tend to feature outlandish explosions, crazy non-stop action, and a jaw-dropping amount of resulting property damage, all thanks to the magic of CGI, of course.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/16d5ed8a7ceb6acf8ef5cec143ac0589.jpgGoing to Mars could be bad for astronauts’ brains, a new study using rodents has found. While the Earth’s magnetosphere mostly protects people on this planet from cosmic radiation, any trailblazers on a long-distance trek to Mars would have to contend with the harmful radiation of space. To study this, researchers exposed rodents to charged particles and then analyzed the results. They found that, among other issues, the rodents had brain damage, neural inflammation, and impaired memory.
