Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software BP is now capturing 11,100 barrels of oil per day from the leak and they are adding a second ship to help process more oil. The second ship will allow BP to capture and process up to 20,000 barrels of oil per day. The leak will …
Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software Craig Venters team copied an existing bacterial genome. They sequenced its genetic code and then used synthesis machines to chemically construct a copy. The synthetic DNA was transferred to a host cell. The resulting microbe then looked and behaved like the species “dictated” by the synthetic …
Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software This site covered the work at Boston University to develop cheaper and faster DNA sequencing using solid state nanopores in Dec, 2009. There has been some more recent discussion and development of this work. Nature Nanotechnology: Electrostatic focusing of unlabelled DNA into nanoscale pores using a …
Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software > If the Mach Effect is real [mass fluctations) and behaves as theorized (with some experimental confirmation) by James Woodward and the effect scales up as expected then we can create propellentless space drive. It appears that the latest research work by James Woodward is validating …
Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software Physicist Dr. Franklin Felber has taken a big step towards meeting two of the greatest technological challenges of pulsed power for fusion – current amplification and pulse compression. A wire-array flux-compression cartridge installed on Sandia’s Saturn pulsed power generator doubled the current into a 3-nH load …
Ad Support : Nano Technology Netbook Technology News Computer Software In a Rice University lab, a black fiber the diameter of a human hair spools into a beaker of ether. Made up of pure nanotubes, the strand is the culmination of nearly a decade of experimentation. Chemical engineer Matteo Pasquali and his colleagues have spun nanotubes …

A small blood lab that fits into the pocket of a jacket can quickly analyze the risk of blood clots in legs prior to a long distance flight; a sensor wristband for measuring electric smog can warn pacemaker patients of life-threatening exposure: “Smart plastics” can …
Clive Crook at the Atlantic reviews the continuing Climategate coverage. The closed-mindedness of these supposed men of science, their willingness to go to any lengths to defend a preconceived message, is surprising even to me. The stink of intellectual corruption is overpowering. One theme, in addition to those already mentioned about the suppression of dissent, …
Scientists in Bell Labs, the Alcatel’s research arm, have set a new optical transmission record of more than 100 Petabits per second.kilometer (equivalent to 100 million Gigabits per second.kilometer). This transmission experiment involved sending the equivalent of 400 DVDs per second over 7,000 kilometers, roughly the distance between Paris and Chicago. This is the highest …
1. The BBC reports that faulty mitochondria were successfully replaced in the eggs of monkeys and the eggs were fertilized and developed into healthy monkeys. Faulty mitochondria effects about 15,000 babies every year and prevents some tens of thousands of women from having children. The US work, featured in the journal Nature, raises hopes of …
