A computer made of strands of DNA in a test tube can find square roots of square numbers from 1 to 900. Although it works for integers only, this is the most advanced DNA computer to date. At present, companies like Intel and AMD are mass...
Walter Elias Disney, born on December 5, 1901, made his name as a cartoonist, animator as well as a film producer. He started his career as a cartoonist at Kansas’ Pesmen-Rubin Commercial Art Studio in 1919. From there, he went to work for a...
For the first time, researchers develop a tiny silicon chip that can propel electrons in a distance smaller than the width of a human hair. The technology could accelerate particles fast enough to perform cutting-edge experiments in material...
DDR5 (short for Double Data Rate 5) is the next-generation standard for SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory). It is designed to deliver much higher performance while consuming less power than its predecessor DDR4. Below, we have covered...
The youngest billionaire in the world at the moment is just 21 years old, with the twelfth youngest being over 30. While most of these young billionaires have inherited their family wealth, some of them are self-made. With the help of technology and...
Astronomers identify a new class of planet with incredibly low density. They studied three planets orbiting a Sun-like star Kepler 51. These puffy have densities lower than 0.1 gram/cm3. Planets are made out of numerous different things. Venus...
In its most basic sense, victory implies success, whether it’s in personal combat or a large scale war. World War II ended with the Allied powers, including Britain, the United States, China, and the Soviet Union, calming victory over Nazi...
The temperature of an object increases when a beam of enough energy is illuminated on it. The thermal radiation emitted by this object could be used for super-resolution imaging at every scale. Think of three scenarios: a bat navigates its way to...
Love it or hate it, Facebook is virtually everywhere. Almost all websites are linked to it, whether they are promoting their own page, letting users leave comments using FB accounts, or just inspecting visitors’ behavior with the Facebook...
Airplane sewage contains a remarkably high abundance and diversity of antibiotic-resistant microbes. About 90% of these microbes are resistant to at least 1 antibiotic. Infections arose from antibiotic-resistant bacteria can be difficult to treat...
Researchers develop a wood-based material by combining graphite with nanocellulose. It is stronger and 6 times lighter than stainless steel. It could be a green alternative for constructing lightweight body armor, vehicles and aircraft. Materials...
The new neural network model improves the accuracy of laser-ranging telescopes. This allows scientists to pinpoint the position of smaller debris in Earth orbit, without increasing the sensitivity of telescopes. Space debris is defunct human-made...
