Android applications from NASA

FLORIDA - NASA unveiled a new application for Android that has a lot of content and enables users 'peek' atmosphere of outer space through streaming impressions.

Following the ending era of NASA's space shuttle Atlantis returned to Earth after, NASA also issued another technology shift on the phones. Some time ago the President of the United States, Barack Obama said that NASA needs to make new breakthroughs in the technology world.

"The plane has done some work to a remarkable experiment to the lowest orbit by making the International Space Station. It is a remarkable achievement. And we are very proud of the job, but now all we need is a new technological breakthrough," said Obama at that time.

Telegraph launched on Friday (22/07/2011), NASA has now released an official application on Android Market Wednesday. This application has features like live video from NASA TV streaming and some archives of the NASA mission.

Is expected users will be integrated with social media that will be made by NASA. Within this application there are also thousands of images, video on demand and an attractive countdown clock.

Even so, this application seems more targeted to people who know a lot about space exploration rather than lovers of technology. NASA insisted that this application is an opportunity to see the beauty of a space program for users not familiar with it, as well as a source of useful information if you are an interested in this subject.

NASA applications are already available for download for free at Android Market.

An elderly Chinese woman has stunned her family and fellow villagers by growing from her forehead a horn than resembles a goat’s.

Grandmother Zhang Ruifang, 101, of Linlou village, Henan province, began developing the mysterious protrusion last year.

Since then it has grown 2.4in in length and another now appears to emerging on the other side of the mother of seven’s forehead.

The condition has left her family baffled and worried.

Her youngest of six sons, Zhang Guozheng, 60, said when a patch of rough skin formed on her forehead last year ‘we didn't pay too much attention to it’.

‘But as time went on a horn grew out of her head and it is now 6cm long,' added Mr Zhang, whose eldest brother and sibling is 82 years old.

‘Now something is also growing on the right side of her forehead. It’s quite possible that it’s another horn.’

Although, it is unknown what the protrusion is on Mrs Zhang’s head, it resembles a cutaneous horn.

This is a funnel-shaped growth and although most are only a few millimetres in length, some can extend a number of inches from the skin.

Cutaneous horns are made up of compacted keratin, which is the same protein we have in our hair and nails, and forms horns, wool and feathers in animals.

They usually develop in fair-skinned elderly adults who have a history of significant sun exposure but it is extremely unusual to see it form protrusions of this size.

The growths are most common in elderly people, aged between 60 and the mid-70s. They can sometimes be cancerous but more than half of cases are benign.

Common underlying causes of cutaneous horns are common warts, skin cancer and actinic keratoses, patches of scaly skin that develop on skin exposed to the sun, such as your face, scalp or forearms.

Cutaneous horns can be removed surgically but this does not treat the underlying cause.

BlackBerry, smartphone made by Research in Motion, a Canadian manufacturer of mobile phone is quite phenomenal in the world. But apparently, do not be so in China.

According to Anderson, 24, graduate student who is also an analyst at a domestic investment bank in Beijing, China said, compared to the BlackBerry, iPhone, Apple's smartphone is much in demand there.

"Young people in China prefer the iPhone because it provides many interesting features and applications on the App Store," Anderson said in Beijing, July 20, 2011. "IPhone is also rated as a leader in the cellular world and presents a significant trend," he said.

Anderson said the people who use the iPhone means a person who is well off. "And the people who are viewed as extremely important for China's population," he said. "Those who are less able to generally choose to Android smartphone," said Anderson.

Then, what about the BlackBerry?

According to Ellen, a graduate student majoring in journalism Renmin University of China, users in the country prefer communication via voice and SMS, followed by instant messaging and email.

"BlackBerry is generally only used by users of business," said Ellen.

For information, Anderson said, the BlackBerry Internet Service rates can reach 120 Yuan per month or about Rp160 thousand, out of tariffs for voice and SMS are far more often used.

Another factor that makes the iPhone more loved by users in China is because users in the country attach great importance to product dengain a good design and value offered by a brand. "Using the iPhone is the pride for the younger generation in this country," said Ellen Anderson and targeting the next generation iPhone as a phone wants to have.Listen

Android From Huawei

Although already one of the major players in the global telecommunications infrastructure industry, Huawei Technology is still considered a newcomer in telecommunications devices for the consumer market, in particular handset. A vendor based in Shenzhen, China is a new serious work on the mobile market since 2010.

As for the operating system, Huawei has been no plans to develop its own operating system as an alternative to the existing operating system. They chose to develop its product line with the Android operating system. What is the reason?

According to Martin Wezowski, Consumer Experience Design Center, Director of Huawei Device GUI Board, the prevailing trend of the future in industry is a handheld gadget that personalized, unique for each individual character of its users.

Martin argues, this time, the operating system Android is the operating system's most interesting because the user interface could still be further optimized.

In terms of applications, including devices that support LTE, Martin argues, there is no application would actually be a killer application or seed application. "There is a killer sets of applications, especially those related to social networking," he said.

To be sure, said Martin, in accordance with the trend of user needs, the entire application will depend on the speed of data transmission. And high-speed data transmission possible with LTE technology.

The Cold Jacket

This summer is not longer a threat to Japanese territory last March that a natural earthquake and tsunami. The reason, Hiroshi Ichigaya, a former technician at the same time corporate leaders Sony Electronics Kuchofuku Co. Ltd. in Japan, has presented a solution so that people can travel without worrying about overheating.

Hiroshi has produced a system that has a cooling jacket. As charged, Hiroshi presents two 4-inch diameter fan which is operated by AA batteries for several hours. In addition, added a USB cable that can connect to a computer to charge on the cooling system. Interestingly, all electronic material in the jacket can be removed when washed. The only weakness of the effect of a material that inflates the wind from the fan.

"It is true that this jacket makes you like the Michelin Man (a symbol of the French company Michelin)," said Hiroshi. "But this jacket can make the factory workers feel comfortable doing their job."

One of the workers who feel the benefits of this jacket is Ryo Igarashi (33). "I work in a very hot and should wear long-sleeved clothes so I stopped to buy this jacket to keep them cool and prevent heat stroke," said Ryo.

Hiroshi develops this jacket since many years ago. This idea was created when he tried to make the air conditioner can use a small electric power. "I believe if we do not need to cool the room but only made so that each person feels cold," said Hiroshi.

Currently, Hiroshi has been producing about 40,000 a jacket that sold for 11,000 yen. Recently, the Japanese government has ordered half a million pieces of jacket but Hiroshi denies the request. Because the company Kuchofuku not yet able to produce that much because the number of human resources is still minimal.

Android smartphones stagnant

According to recent reports Nielsen research institute, revealed that the growth in Smartphone sales, particularly in the U.S. market moves back up. But the movement was driven by iPhone sales, Apple's Smartphone.

In the survey, the share of new iPhone users increased to 17 percent compared with 10 percent in early 2011. Android-based Smartphone is stagnant at 27 percent.

Excerpted from Ars Technica, June 6, 2011, the figures show that Android is still dominating the Smartphone sales to users who buy Smartphone in the last three months. However, interest in the platform for a while it stopped growing.

As is known, before it had time to sluggish sales of the iPhone and Android skyrocketed. However, analysts expect, the iPhone launch by Verizon likely contribute to distorting the situation.

From the survey, note also that in the United States, sales of BlackBerry continue to decline. The numbers fell from 11 percent to 6 percent in recent months. Windows Phone also less popular. The percentage of sales is only about 1 percent.

However, the Smartphone itself has huge potential. Because of the Nielsen survey, 55 percent of recent phone buyers prefer a Smartphone than feature phones. The figure rose from just 34 percent last year.

Human touch the Planet Mercury

The plane's Messenger space agency NASA has successfully orbiting Mercury for the first time.

After performing a complicated maneuver to avoid the Sun's gravity, an unmanned spacecraft successfully entered the lane bernamatersebut orbit on Thursday night in Florida after traveling 4.9 billion miles, or approximately six and a half years from Earth.

This achievement at the same time as the fifth planet Mercury makes a successful touched by humans in our solar system.

Apparently, Mercury is not difficult to achieve. But, it must be remembered that it is a rocky planet and the most extreme temperature in the solar system. The range in surface temperature reaches 593 degrees Celsius. The temperature at the surface can reach 426 degrees Celsius at the closest distance to the Sun and reach -148 degrees Celsius at midnight.

Mercury is known to have extreme temperature shift from hot to cold. Somehow during the day is much longer than the nights each year. And strangely, although the planet closest to the sun, scientists discovered the existence of tons of ice in the dark crater.

Messenger is planned to enter Mercury's orbit and spin for a year. For all tasks, the satellites worth U.S. $ 446 million (Rp 3, 9 trillion), should be able to withstand the gravitational pull of the sun.

Mercury itself has a highly elliptical orbit. Range of distance to the sun about 29 million miles (47 million kilometers) to 43 million miles (69 million kilometers) for the longest distance. To note, Mercury orbits the sun every 88 Earth days.

Mini Galaxies

A model of advanced technologies that run on super computers belonging to the U.S. have revealed the presence of satellite galaxies around the Milky Way. When looking for a more real, there is a trail that shows its presence. Now, the model used to find the "friend" of other galaxies.

Some time ago, an astrophysicist suggests that giant spiral galaxies like the Milky Way galaxy have dozens or even hundreds of companion, either a size too small and faint visible in the night sky.

More recently, scientists are increasingly evident statement. Small Magellanic Cloud (The Small Magellanic Clouds) and large Maggellan Clouds (The Large Magellanic Clouds) are two examples of dwarf galaxies orbiting the Milky Way.

However, what makes scientists interested in the smaller cosmic structures is that they have material that is darker.

Both dwarf galaxies were discovered by an expert from the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) named joy Chakrabarti. Women scientists is using a number of super computers at NERSC to a row of a mathematical model to simulate our galaxy and the surrounding materials.

With this model it is homemade technology, Chakrabarti successfully identified a large number of dark galaxies around the Milky Way. One of them, he said, lies opposite the side of the Earth in the Milky Way. The distance is about 300,000 light-years from the galactic center. (1 light year = 10 trillion kilometers).

"Our approach has broad implications for many fields of physics and astronomy. He can not directly detect dark matter-matter that the average is dominated by dwarf galaxies, planetary dynamics, and evolution of galaxies is affected by the satellite galaxies around it," said Chakrabarti .

Previously, he had originally presented the simulation results of this year in Seattle, at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society. The work was done while he was a researcher at the University of California at Berkeley (UCB).

"Currently, I use my method to test theories that have been modified gratvitasi and plans to run the simulation at NERSC," said Chakrabarti. Reportedly, he will be presenting the results of simulations in three dimensions.

Chakrabarti is currently an assistant professor of physics at Florida Atlantic University. "NERSC system really accelerate my work. This system is a great resource," he concluded

The Latest Power Generation

Nano-technology developers have been able to make a device from nanostructures to generate electric currents, electromagnetic fields, even able to issue the order of subatomic radiation. Device / Nano-sized devices capable of generating electrical energy are referred to as Nano generator.
Georgia Institute of Technology, they are developing a prototype Nano generator that uses Nano yarn structure (nanowire) to generate electricity when the wire vibrates in Nano size. Nanowire on the prototype made of ZnO (zinc oxide), currents arising from the nanowire is as of the piezoelectric effect (the onset of electrical properties due to changes in mechanical energy of the material). The design of the Nano generator until now is still the object of research and still be in development stage. Scientists predict that Nanogenarator will be introduced to the public about the years 2010-2011.
Until now the majority of the portable electronic devices (e.g. watches, etc.), energy is still very dependent on the battery. Currently scientists are developing and demonstrating how an electronic device is easy and practical in its energy supply. This can be realized by the method of yarn developer’s technology Nano (nanowire) from cheap materials (ZnO) which can produce sufficient mechanical energy to be converted into electrical energy.

How electricity is produced from the Nano wire


Prof. Zhong Lin Wang of Georgia Tech illustrates that when we walk, then the electric power generated approximately by our body is 67 watts, we jari2 movement result 0.1 watt, 1 watt of our breathing. Well if we are able to convert a fraction of the power, then our bodies can be a source of energy for an electronic device. Conceptually continued Prof. Zhong Lin Wang, he was able to demonstrate power conversion is possible for a device reaches 17-30 percent of the total power generated by our bodies.
Results of research at the research group of Prof. Zhong Lin Wang can confirm a theory that: ZnO nanowire will show excellent piezoelectric effect, which produces the electrical properties of the response to mechanical stress. Usually negative and positive charge of zinc and oxygen ions in ZnO nanowire crystals cancels each other. But when the wire is chemically grown on the surface of the electrode, wire is bent due to external vibrations from the tip of the Nano-scale. The tip is a tip of atomic force microscopy (AFM) made of silicon (Si) coated with platinum (Pt). Bending of the ZnO nanowire lead to the occurrence of an electric dipole in a nanowire.
In the compressed negatively charged while the expansion positively charged. That is because the Zn2 + and the negative pole as a result of O-2. So with the metal contacts the semiconductor results in Schotcky rectification bridge the gap as in the positive and negative type semiconductor (pn junction). Contacts between the AFM tip with a positively charged pole is called the forward and reverse biased AFM tip with the negative pole is called reverse bias.

In the state of forward bias electrons will easily flow into the metal opposite the reverse bias electrons will have trouble. This phenomenon may be illustrated by the graph the relationship between voltage and current in the diode, whereas its transport mechanism can be easily illustrated by looking at the energy diagram between the metal and semiconductor. Figure 1 (a) and 1 (b) is a form of ZnO nanowire and the phenomenon of electric currents generated by contact metal and semiconductor.

New minerals for the manufacture of iPad

Rare earth minerals that are found on the seabed in the Pacific Ocean.
Japanese researchers have discovered a rare mineral. This mineral is used to make electronic products. His name is Rare earth minerals. This mineral can be used to create smartphones, tablet pc, and flat screen televisions.
Minerals can be found at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean around Hawaii, the United States. In fact, it's easily extracted minerals. These findings add to the knowledge of the function as well as minerals, yet threaten its supply.
"The content of minerals that have heavy concentrations of rare. Only by one square kilometer of content that could provide a fifth of global consumption on an annual basis (for use in electronic goods)," said Yasuhiro Kato, assistant professor of earth science at Tokyo University, was quoted as saying from The Guardian.
Findings are managed by a team led by Kato could have an impact for the production of electronic goods that require rare minerals, such as tantalum and yttrium. So far most of the mineral soil in China, which provides about 97 percent of global supply.
Recent research has found that minerals hidden in the mud in the seabed can be extracted at depths of 3500 to 6,000 meters, in 78 locations. One third of these locations, Kato said, have a wealth of rare mineral content and metal yttrium.
Kato explained that the Rare earth minerals content can be found stretches east to west Hawaii. In addition, can also be found in the east of Tahiti in Polynesia, France.
Kato estimate Rare earth minerals that contained as many as 80 to 100 billion tons. Compared with global inventories that found the U.S. Geological Survey, only 110 million tons were found, among others in China, Russia, former Soviet Union, and the United States.
The use of Rare earth minerals for the production of high-tech electronic goods, magnets, and battery causing much mineral mining activity in recent years. According to Kato, sea mud which is rich in minerals found another nadir earth, such as gadolinium, lutetium, terbium, and dysporsium.
"It is commonly used in the manufacture of flat screen televisions, as well as LED (light-emitting diode) and hydride car," said Kato.

Germany will close all nuclear plants in 2022

German parliament approved a plan to shut down nuclear power plants in the country in 2022 to come. European economies are now focused on their ambition to use the latest energy.

Nuclear plant closure plans came after the case of a nuclear reactor leak in Japan. Of the vote, 513 lawmakers agreed, 79 disagreed, and 8 abstentions.

From 17 nuclear reactors operating in the country, as many as 8 of them was shut down permanently. Temporary nine other reactor will be closed gradually until the end of 2022.
In 2020, Germany plans to double the energy derived from water, wind, solar, and biogas at least up to 35 percent of energy needs. Until this year alone, the source of nuclear energy supplies about 25 percent of national electricity needs.

"People wonder whether the Germans were able to do this? The reason is, this is the first time one of the major industrial countries expressed readiness to conduct technological and economic revolution like this," said Norbert Roettgen, German Environment Minister, as quoted by AP, July 1 2011.

The government itself has not elaborate detail about their plans to switch to renewable energy sources. "Of course it would be costly. But that would not exceed the burdens we must bear," said Roettgen.
