Learn all about carbon nanotubes and its applications. The field of carbon nanotube research was launched in 1991 by the initial experimental observation of carbon nanotubes by transmission electron microscopy and the subsequent report of conditions for the synthesis of large quantities of nanotubes Though early work was done on coaxial carbon cylinders called multi-wall carbon nanotubes, the… Read More »
Learn all about nanobots and nanotechnology and its medical applications. Today the field of nanotechnology is on the verge of many breakthroughs that may change medicine, science, and engineering as we know it. Can you imagine being able to cure cancer by injecting nanotechnology that has been programmed to eliminate specific cells? That could be our future world.… Read More »
Learn all about sea anemone and clownfish relationship. The ornately colored sea anemone (uh-NEM-uh-nee) is named after the equally flashy terrestrial anemone flower. A close relative of coral and jellyfish, anemones are stinging polyps that spend most of their time attached to rocks on the sea bottom or on coral reefs waiting for fish to pass close enough… Read More »
Learn all about how do sharks, whales and dolphins sleep? Sleep is a state in which the person or animal is less responsive to outward stimuli than in a usual waking state, but to a lesser extent than in the case of hibernation (in which an animal’s metabolic rate, temperature and breathing are all significantly reduced, and external… Read More »
Learn all about self-guided smart bullets. Currently, US Army snipers are expected to hit a target 600 meters away, nine times out of ten. But after a certain point, about a kilometer away, accuracy falls off sharply, even in perfect conditions. Besides, current technology simply does not allow snipers to easily estimate the impact of humidity and cross-winds… Read More »
This article is about Future Space Technology, traveling, and colonization. In the near future NASA and JPL will wind down their operations as the space tourism industry is just starting to wind up. In fact, there have already been several multi-millionaire space tourists to fly in a Soviet Soyuz spaceship to the International Space Station (ISS) and back.… Read More »
Hyperloop by Elon Musk is the future transportation technology. In Musk’s words, a hyperloop is a system to build a tube over or under the ground that contains a special environment. Hyperloop is expected to become 5th mode of transportation, standing beside planes, trains, automobiles, and boats in the pantheon of mechanized movement. Hyperloop One, previously known as… Read More »
Human Gene Editing leads to the possibility of Designer Babies. This article discusses its pros and cons. Genetics explains the process of parents passing down certain genes to their children. Genes are inherited from both biological parents, and each gene expresses a specific trait. Before the advent of genetic engineering and in vitro fertilization (IVF), designer babies were… Read More »
Genetic Engineering Pros and Cons have been one of the hottest topics in life sciences. The first genetically modified organism to be created was a bacterium, in 1973. Genetic engineering applications are numerous now. It includes human genome improvement, birth defects treatment, gene therapy, genetic drugs, agriculture, food, dairy, veterinary, animal modeling, ecological control, material design, space biology,… Read More »
Wondering how fast does a Bullet travel? The maximum velocity of an average bullet is 760 Mps (metre per second). The bullet speed of 760 Mps is equal to 2493 Fps (feet per second), 2736 Kmh (kilometre per hour) and 1700 Mph (miles per hour). The bullet weight can range from 0.02 to 0.2 kg depending on the… Read More »
