The May 2013 issue of Scientific American has a special feature on the future of manufacturing. Wondering what it'll be like when robots become our overlords or how 3D printers look? Check it out. Also in this issue are articles on toxic proteins that affect the brain, Homo sapiens hybridizing with other species of humans, and curing bad breath.
May you have lovely spring weather this weekend, and see you Monday!
