The Solar Decathlon

Every other year, the U.S. Energy Department holds a solar decathlon for teams from various universities around the world. The winning team receives a $100,000 grant over two years.

Are Dreams An Exercise In Quantum Physics?

While watching a program which involved an attempt to explain quantum mechanics to average people, it struck me that the explanation of how things work on the quantum level sounded a lot like the kind of things that happen in dreams. There are a number of interesting observations that seem to fit the picture of correlating dreams with visits to the quantum world.

Using Water As a Power Source

Water is used as a significant power source in many parts of the world. In fact, Norway uses it to produce 99 percent of its electricity. So, how does it work?

Hubble Space Telescope-Seeing Beyond the Milky Way

The Hubble Space Telescope has allowed scientists and the rest of the world a look into outer space that was not even imagined one hundred years ago. In fact, it is only in the last one hundred years that it was discovered that there are millions of galaxies beyond ours and that the universe is constantly expanding. Since its launch in 1990 this telescope has been an invaluable source of information to astronomers and scientists throughout the world. As the Hubble Space Telescope orbits its way around the earth once every 95 minutes, it continues to gather more knowledge about not only our galaxy but the ones beyond as well.

Aircraft Materials and Lifetime Consideration in Aerospace

As modern aircraft use more space age materials we will see more strength and less weight and thus more performance and useful load capabilities.

Separation of Mitochondria From Leaf Tissue

The technique used to separate organelles is referred to as Ultracentrifugation or Subcellular Fractionation. It is used to extract undamaged organelles from tissue and separate them so they structure and Biochemistry can be studied in a greater detail under an electron microscope.

Infinity and Infinitesimals - Part I

Provides a radical revision of conventional mathematics by revealing a metaphysical understanding of infinity and infinitesimals. The basis for the mathematics of higher dimensions is also presented.

Home DNA Test: Its Advantage
