New Light Based Wi-Fi System Will Make Internet 100-Times Faster
Scientists have developed a new wireless internet based on harmless infrared rays that is 100 times faster than existing wi-fi network and has the capacity to support more devices without getting congested. Slow wi-fi is a source of irritation that nearly everyone experiences. Wireless devices in the home consume ever more data, and it is only growing, and congesting the … Continue reading
New Subatomic Particles Discovered by Large Hadron Collider Team
Five new subatomic particles that had been “hiding in plain sight” have been uncovered by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), Europe’s giant atom-smasher. They were discovered by scientists in charge of the LHCb experiment, also known as “beauty”, which is exploring what happened just after the Big Bang that gave birth to the universe. By measuring their properties, physicists hope … Continue reading
Our Genetic Code Created by Aliens and they Signed it with the Number 37, Scientists Say
THE answer to the origin life could simply be the number 37 which could prove that our genetic code was created by ancient aliens, according to a new scientific theory. The notion that life on Earth has alien origins is nothing new, but a pair of researchers believe that they have cracked an ancient code which prove that life was … Continue reading
Gene Responsible for ‘Rain Man’ Disorder Identified
For people with agenesis of the corpus callous, the brain lacks the fibres that connect the left and right hemispheres. A gene responsible for mild cases of the brain disorder behind the 1988 hit movie Rain Man has been identified. Kim Peek was the real-life ‘mega-savant’ who inspired the Oscar-winning movie. But aside from his phenomenal ability to memorise books … Continue reading
Quantum Teleportation Achieved, Team Makes Particles QUANTUM JUMP from One Location to Another
TExperts have seen electrons quantum leap between materials, leaving no trace of where they had been. The action has been described as a strange type of quantum movement where the electron traveled from the first layer of a material to the third without appearing in the second. Lead researcher Hui Zhao, from the University of Kansas, said: “Electrons can show … Continue reading
Quantum Theory of “Spooky Action at a Distance” Confirmed by Experiment
Quantum physics is just weird. One of the strangest behaviors studied by this out-there branch of science is called quantum entanglement and is enough to make your head hurt. Quantum entanglement involves two subatomic particles which could be any theoretical distance apart, yet share some type of mysterious connection which makes measuring or even just observing any one of the … Continue reading
Warped Meteor Showers Target Earth from All Angles
Some meteor showers persist for weeks and months, even though Earth sweeps a big arc around the Sun during that time. The meteors arrive from a slightly different direction each day, which is a clue to why these showers last so long. In a review of ongoing meteor surveillance projects worldwide, 45 showers are identified that take this motion to … Continue reading
Discovery of 1.6 Billion Year Old Fossil Forces Scientist to Reassess Timeline of Plants
Fossils unearthed in India that are 1.6 billion years old and look like red algae may represent the earliest-known plants, a discovery that could force scientists to reassess the timing of when major lineages in the tree of life first appeared on Earth. Researchers on Tuesday described the tiny, multicellular fossils as two types of red algae, one thread-like and … Continue reading
Discovery of 400,000 Yr-Old Half-Skull In Portugal Points to Mystery People
The discovery of a 400,000-year-old half skull in Portugal has offered tantalizing hints about a possible ancestor of the Neanderthals, researchers said Monday. The fossil was unearthed from the Aroeira cave site, and marks the oldest human cranium fossil ever found in Portugal, said the report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a peer-reviewed US journal. But … Continue reading
Artificial Retina Implant Created by Scientist Could Restore Vision to Millions
Scientists have developed a retinal implant that can restore lost vision in rats, and are planning to trial the procedure in humans later this year. The implant, which converts light into an electrical signal that stimulates retinal neurons, could give hope to millions who experience retinal degeneration – including retinitis pigmentosa – in which photoreceptor cells in the eye begin … Continue reading
