Being the closest planet to Earth, Venus has always been a desirable target for amateur astronomers for their first interplanetary exploration. That said, this planet was once the focal point of all space exploration in the late 1960s and 1970s...
Google develops Tacotron 2 that makes machine generated speech sound less robotic and more like a human. They used neural networks trained on text transcripts and speech examples. The system synthesizes speech with WaveNet-level audio quality and...
What is a gravity anomaly? In simple terms, a gravity anomaly occurs when there is a difference between the predicted value of the planet’s gravity field and the actual acceleration of free fall observed on a planet’s surface. Generally...
The NASA’s spacecraft studying Jupiter, called Juno, discovered some interesting details about the planet. The roots of the Great Red Spot go 50 to 100 times deeper than oceans on the Earth. The Great Red Spot is 1.3 times as wide as Earth...
Fisker Inc. filed patents for a new type of solid state battery technology. It can make electric cars go over 500 miles with 1 minute of complete recharge. These batteries would be 2.5 times more power-dense and would cost much less than...
Once believed to be in the center of the universe, our Earth remains the only planet known to harbor life. According to radiometric and other sorts of evidences, the Earth was formed more than 4 billion years ago. Within the first billion years...
Technology is evolving every day and we need to stay updated to be productive. There are many technology shows worldwide that informs you about the new technology and give important insights about about the products before they strike the market...
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is evolving rapidly. From search engines and SIRI to self-driving cars, it is being applied to every potential technology to help civilization flourish like never before. What we are developing today is Weak AI, which...
The web design industry is changing very quickly and there are some people who are setting the bar higher with their extraordinary skills, works and contribution to the web design community. If you want to be successful, find others who are already...
A theory in simple words is a reflective and rational generalization of thinking. On the other hand, a hypothesis is a proposed explanation for any given phenomenon. Both are equally important for the development of a discipline. But things just...
Engineers made a new battery that works in a temperature range from -40°C to 120°C, and can be charged within 5 seconds. It can retain 91% of its capacity after 250,000 charge-discharge cycles. The battery is extremely flexible, bearing 10,000...
Most of the water on Mars is locked up as subsurface ice and in the rocks. Researchers discovered that Mars’ basalt rocks are capable to hold about 25% more water as compared to those on Earth. Approximately 9% excess volume of Martian mantle...
