The Science of Dune: Technology

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Frank Herbert's "Dune," the game-changing 1965 sci-fi novel full of space-age feudalistic intrigue, rampaging sandworms and prescient mind drugs on a desert world.

First up, consider the real-life possibilities of water-recycling stillsuits, the Holtzman Effect and the war against thinking machines.
