Rising Temperatures in the Western Antarctic

London - Scientists have long predicted that climate change will occur in the world. Could be starting from Antarctica? For more than half a century, scientists at a remote outpost in West Antarctica have researched developments climate in there, and new analysis mentioned Nature Geoscience is at alarming conclusions.

Temperatures in the western region of Antarctica increased by 4.4 degrees Fahrenheit since 1958, or two times more than previous incident which makes it the region with the world's fastest warming

If it keeps happened like this, scientists fear a long period will occur on the surface melting of ice in western Antarctica. This could cause mountains of ice to collapse, as happened in 2002.

If occur for hundreds of years, the ice is melting in the region could lead to rising sea levels in the world up to 10 feet high.

Today, although the average temperature during the summer is still below freezing, but the temperature increase has increased the probability of ice to melt extensively as happened in the region during the period of warm weather in 2005.

Reported TheAtlantic, rising temperatures in the western Antarctic will become increasingly worrisome in the years ahead.

NASA Find Ice on Planet Mercury

Washington - An invention that is actually beyond belief, NASA scientists found ES on the planet closest to the Sun is Mercury. As if the news? See below.

As quoted from ABS-CBN, NASA scientists announced new evidence stating that the planet Mercury has large ice content, thus revealing information about how water can enter into the planets in our Solar System.

"These new data indicate how water ice on the planet Mercury is, the extent of any such area of ​​Washington, with a coating thickness of up to 3.2 km," said David Lawrance, scientists involved in the research.

Although Mercury is very hot conditions, but apparently vortex rotation parallel to the Sun, which means the other side is never exposed to sunlight.

Previously, scientists have long predicted that the dark part of Mercury was ice or other materials. The theory was further strengthened after the 1991 a giant telescope in Puerto Rico, detect the white areas in the polar regions of the planet.

Is it True the Full Moon Not Affect Psychological

Technology Daily News, Vancouver - Recent studies states that the full moon does not affect human psychological condition. Want to know more, see his review?

Study conducted by a group of researchers from the School of Psychology at the University Laval dismisses the claim that the full moon can trigger certain psychiatric conditions.

Research by Professor Genevieve Belleville and published in the journal General Hospital Psychiatry, consisting of observations to 771 people who were taken to Sacr-Coeur Hospital and Htel-Dieu de Lvis in Montreal, the psychological dysfunction.

The study was conducted between March 2005 and April 2008. Some of the symptoms seen in this study are anxiety, panic attacks and suicidal thoughts.

By exposing the research respondents in the moonlight, it did not affect their mental state.

"One thing is for sure, we observe that there is no influence of the full moon to the effect that people's mood," said Prof. Belleville. As reported softpedia.com | now what do you think, if you have an opinion, please give your review via the comments box.

NASA Watch and Learn Dust Storms on Mars

California - The U.S. space agency, NASA, says that they are now monitoring dust storms on Mars, which now triggers changes in the atmosphere.

This is the first time since the 1970s NASA studying weather phenomena in orbit and on Mars, according to the NASA official website.

"This is a regional dust storm on Mars. In some parts of the planet, the storm had been more widespread," said Rich Zurek, chief scientist of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, USA.

Also described by scientists that regional dust storm on Mars has been widespread on Mars in 2001-2007.

"One thing we want to learn today is why some storms occurred only briefly, while others grow much bigger," said Zurek. [via: ABC]

Planet PH1 is Planet with Four Sun

San Francisco - A group of amateur astronomers find a planet that is rumored to have the four suns. How did that happen? The following information:

A group of astronomers who joined in associations Planethunters.org managed to find a planet with four suns. Although a four-sun, the planet is just around two suns only.

Reported by BBC, the alien planet called PH1 is a gas giant planet that has a size slightly larger from Neptune. The planet unique was originally discovered Kian Jek from San Francisco and Robert Gagliano from Arizona. Both are in the United States.

These findings are then handed over to the astronomers at Yale University and Oxford University who instantly made a 'project' to further investigate these findings would.

In the project, astronomers working with professional scientists found evidence of a new world through the abundance of data collected by NASA's space telescope, Kepler. Since it’s launched on March 2009, Kepler found evidence of more than 2,300 the alien planet.

Meanwhile, proclaimed by TheSunDaily, where PH1 was presented at the annual meeting of the Division for Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society in Nevada, U.S., on Monday (15/10).

In this event, explained that Planet PH1 has a radius 6.2 times larger than Earth owned. Planet is also mentioned takes 138 days to complete one orbit of the two parent star has a mass of about 1.5 and 0.41 times that of the sun.

NuSTAR: New telescope to hunt black holes

CALIFORNIA - Scientists will soon have the tools to search or observe the black hole with the launch of a new space telescope. With the telescope to be launched by NASA, scientists can help get the information, related to black holes and deep understanding of the objects that exist in space.

Tool is also used by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) named the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array, it is not just looking for a black hole, but also serves to gain insight on the most energetic objects in outer space and the exotic.

The plan, the new telescope will be launched starting this month, right June 13, 2012. Binoculars are known NuSTAR; it would appear from Kwajalein in the central Pacific Ocean Attoll.

The telescope is claimed to be the most advanced telescopes available today. Have ten times the resolution as well as more than a hundred times the sensitivity, rather than its predecessor series. In addition, NuSTAR also comes with a new design that relies on a complex set of nested 133 ultra thin mirrors.

Wikipedia launch, the black hole (black hole) is a concentration of mass great enough to produce a very large gravitational force. There is nothing, including electromagnetic radiation can escape its gravity, even light can only enter but not exit or pass through.

The Virus can be converted to electricity producers.

Who would think that the Virus Could Be Source of Electricity? Scientists in Berkeley, California found a new way of generating electricity. With a technique they developed, the virus can be converted to electricity producers.

This breakthrough means that one day we can recharge devices such as mobile phones. For example, with paper-thin generator that produces electricity. This generator with electrodes in it, which has a film layer of the engineered virus. Nevertheless, scientists recognized that developing these methods; their discovery is still an early stage and needs further development.

"Still need more research. However, the results of our work promising first step toward the development of personal electricity producing generator," said Seung-Wuk Lee of the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Lab United States (U.S.) represent his team.

Using genetic engineering techniques, the scientists added four negatively charged molecules at one end of a tangible tool protesin the virus coat. This generator works by utilizing the piezoelectric properties of bacteria called M13, a virus that only attacks bacteria and tame toward humans.

Piezoelectric can convert mechanical energy into electricity. Piezoelectricity itself is electricity generated from the accumulation of stress, such as the cigarette lighter to light a cigarette. "Because the biotechnology enables the production of large-scale-modified virus, virus-based piezoelectric materis can offer the convenience of microelectronic future," said Lee.( As Quoted from My Fox)

The Signs of addiction to Facebook

Researchers from the University of Bergen, Norway, have identified six signs that indicate a person's likelihood Facebook addiction. Researchers conducted a test called Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale to 423 students to help find out whether someone has an addiction to social media.

The results showed that six signs of a person's addiction, spent much time thinking about Facebook, or plan to use Facebook, feel should be used continuously, and using Facebook to forget personal matters.

In addition it is felt nervous and confused when barred from using Facebook, trying to reduce its use but does not work, and use up too much to have a negative impact on work or study.

"The use of Facebook has increased considerably. We are dealing with a part of Internet addiction that is connected to social media," said Cecilie Schou Andreassen, who led the research.

Addiction is mostly seen among young people. Through this study also found people who are anxious and feel unsafe socially using Facebook more, possibly because they find it easier to communicate through social media rather than face to face.

"Women are more at risk of addiction to Facebook, probably because of the social nature of Facebook," Andreassen said, as quoted by LiveScience pages. In addition, this study shows people who organized and tend to be more ambitious Facebook addiction. They use social media as an integral part of the work and the network.

And research results about Facebook addiction has been published in the journal "Psychological Reports".

LSST Camera - World's Largest Digital Camera

Ambition conducted a survey in the night sky, researchers created a digital camera, where the camera is claimed to be the largest in the world, and this is a recent breakthrough. Camera Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will capture most of the night sky image width, the fastest and clearest. This camera has been approved 'Critical Decision 1 "from the Ministry of Energy United States (U.S.) for the next stage.

LSST camera has a size of 1.5 x 3 meter capable of providing 3.5-degree viewing angle with the surface of the image diameter of 0.6 meters, the result; the resulting image has an amazing resolution, which reached 3.2 billion pixels.

"With the sensor 189 and three tons of components that have this camera, can you imagine how complicated this instrument. But this camera is exceptional and unique,” said Nadine Kurita LSST project manager at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, as quoted by UPI.

Secret instructions how the birth of stars

After doing some research on one of the most basic molecules in the universe, researchers from the United States (U.S.) claim to get clues to how stars are born. Want to know?  Scientists from the University of Arizona have studied the properties of a chemical called H3 +, or also known as the hydrogen ion triatomik. These chemicals are believed to exist in the universe since the Big Bang happened 13.7 billion years ago.

The researchers took into account the vibration pattern of H3 + and the results, they were able to calculate the wavelength of light to be emitted which gives instructions on how to identify signs of astronomical research. H3 + vibration and light-emitting quality allows the transfer of heat from the first stars in the universe as the star formation process itself.

"There will be no stars if no molecules are able to cool gradually as H3 +," said researcher Michelle Pavanello.

The findings are claimed to help understand the physics of star formation complex, especially the stars that appear earliest in the universe.

10 UFO Greatest Story & Not Solved

He phenomenon of UFOs has always been a warm material to be discussed. Until now, there were 10 biggest UFO story of the unsolved until now.

Foo Fighter

During World War II, American pilots war, Britain, Germany and France reported seeing a giant glowing circles in the sky unexplained. Sphere is then given the name ' foo fighter '. The origin of the name itself is still not known yet, some people have a theory, this name comes from the German word for ' Feuer ' .

Hopeh incident, China

This photo was taken in 1942 that was later found in a photo album. The owner of this album claim buy this photo from the street photographer in China. Some people claim, the UFO looks like a hat or a bird and others say it's a flying saucer.

Men in black

In 1947, a fisherman claim see a donut-shaped UFO flying in the air over Maury Island in Puget Sound, Washington, United States (U.S.). One object is to drop debris into the boat deck and the ship owner's son and wounding the dog.

The next morning, fishermen are claiming a man dressed in black appeared at his door and threatened his family would be in danger if he talked to anyone about this incident.

The first flying saucer sighting

Only a few days after the incident the man in black, Kenneth Arnold reported seeing a UFO flying in the air near Mt. Ranier, Washington. The media then use the 'flying saucer' to describe the object. Arnold then became a semi-celebrity in the world of the paranormal.

The loss of Felix Moncla

While pursuing UFOs in Lake Superior in 1953, air force pilot (AU) AS Felix Moncla just disappeared. Control of the land claimed to detect Moncla and radar and witnessed UFOs in the blink on the radar 'fused and then disappeared'. In 1968, the aircraft was found in the lake but it was never ascertained the correct part Moncla plane or not.

Kecksburg Incident

On the night of December 9, 1965, residents Kecksburg, Pennsylvania claiming there is a large object shaped acorns with hieroglyphic writing falls in the forest. The military quickly around the area.

In 2005, NASA describes the object that crashed was probably the debris of the Russian satellite, but witnesses claim was consistent with NASA's explanation of what they witnessed.

Jimmy Carter's UFO sighting

President Jimmy Carter said he saw a bright white object then changed color from blue, red to white and back again before finally away to Leary, Georgia in 1969.

Even though he later claimed not expect objects are alien spacecraft, he said, "One thing for sure, I never underestimate someone who claims to have seen UFOs in the sky". If I become president, Carter said in 1976, "I will publish all the information in this country regarding UFO sightings on the citizens and scientists".

Violent men

Despite this cruel man first encountered after the UFO sightings in 1966 in Elizabeth, New Jersey, he came across the U.S. after a UFO sighting and told the witness his name 'Indrid Cold'. Witnesses described the man is tall human-like but has no nose or ears, just eyes and a big smile.

O'Hare Airport

On Tuesday, November 7, 2006, the FAA received reports of 12 airline employees at O'Hare, Chicago saw the plane flying saucer through a metal gate. According to witnesses, the disc was floated for two minutes.

However, when people will look into it, this object directly to the clouds and disappeared. FAA concluded, it was a trick of weather on the human eye but the witness insisted that it was a UFO.

Turkey

Night guard named Yalcin Yalman in Turkey witnessed a large number of UFO while on duty in 2008 and record the incident. It provides the Sirius UFO Space Research Center video duration of two and a half hours. The video itself is considered as 'most important UFO images ever' though the truth needs to be proven.

NASA Discover The Powerful Evidence of Water on Mars

Some of the findings of NASA's new spacecraft showed Mars could support human life in the future.

NASA orbiter images transmitted 'Reconnaissance' show evidence of water on Mars in the summer.

U.S. spacecraft orbiting the Red Planet, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, shows there is a possibility that one day the planet can support human life. Orbiter has found the strongest evidence that on Mars there is water flowing in the summer.

Charles Bolden, head of the National American Space Agency or NASA, said NASA's Mars Exploration Program continues to make scientists more closely to determine whether Mars can support most life.

According to him, the program has shown that Mars is an important goal for future human exploration.

Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter reviewing many of the slopes along the southern hemisphere of Mars. Dark line on the side of the mountain looked like fingers. These signs appear and disappear as the change of seasons.

Signs appear when the temperature of the planet Mars rises. They look bigger as it moves into the mountainside. When the temperature is cold, dark lines disappeared. However, reappeared on the planet Mars in the next spring, or summer.

Alfred McEwen, principal investigator in Experiment Shooting in high resolution Mars Orbiter Planet who is also Professor of Geology at the University of Arizona in Tucson, said the flow of salty water that is the best explanation of observations of Mars orbiter. Other spacecraft and various Martian meteorites have shown that the surface of Mars salty.

According to McEwen, water on Mars may differ from those found on Earth. He called water on Mars is more like a viscous liquid. Magazine "Science" published a report on the findings of the orbiter.

McEwen and his team believe that the water probably flowed on ancient Mars. However, if water in the Red planet exists as a liquid is still debatable. The results of oxidation of iron in the planet makes the planet Mars is reddish.

Philip Christensen, a geologist at Arizona State University, confirmed scientists have known for years that there is ice on Mars.

"We know Mars had a lot of ice. However, this is not the first time we have seen the potential for liquid water. That may be salt water. But it was liquid. And I think that's the real key here. Not that Mars does not have much ice, but liquid water - a definite for an organism-are very different from the ice, "said Philip Christensen.

Geologist Lisa Pratt of Indiana University welcomed the results of the study. According to him, the findings will help scientists plan a trip in the future to look for signs of life on Mars today.

Hazardous Waste The Space

ISS several times must maneuver to avoid collision with space junk.

Experts in the United States warned NASA that the amount of space junk in Earth orbit has reached a dangerous phase.

Report prepared by the National Research Council states that garbage can cause leaks in spacecraft or destroy satellites.

"The amount of junk orbiting Earth could collide assessed, which in turn will increase the number of waste fractions. It's all increase the risk of damage to aircraft, spacecraft," the report said.

Efforts to reduce the amount of waste space in recent years suffered a setback due to several factors.

In 2007, China conducted a weapons test by destroying satellite anti-satellite no longer in use in space.

This test produces no less than 150,000 satellite fragments with a size of about 1 cm.

Two years later, the two satellites, one of which is still active, collided in the orbit and increase the amount of waste fractions in the sky.

"The two events immediately are doubling the small fragments in Earth orbit. Cleanup efforts we did in the last 25 years to be wasted," said Donald Kessler, one of the experts at the National Research Council.

International Space Station (ISS), orbiting the Earth with a speed of 28,164 km / hour, sometimes also have to maneuver to avoid collision with space debris.

Last June, a few shards almost ran into the ISS, even had time to make the six crew members entered the rescue capsule and prepare evacuation to Earth.

"The situation is critical," said Kessler, a former NASA scientist is.

National Research Council called for the preparation of international rules to limit the space garbage.

It also calls for more research to find effective ways to clean the air from waste. [BBC]

"Alien" Man Friend or Enemy?

Everyone hopes that aliens landed on Earth will be like a friendly ET. In the latest betting, scientists believe aliens will clean up greenhouse gases in the Earth.

Scientists think, aliens who are aware of the environment was disturbed by the emission of humanity that can destroy the planet's own occupancy. When studied from a distance, changes in Earth's atmosphere can make people get labeled as a civilization that grew out of control.

Aliens come to the conclusion and could be launched in order to protect the threat of guerrilla attacks that threaten their way of life. However, this is just one of many possibilities.

In addition, the scientists also consider the other unwanted results, such as more aggressive aliens who can eat or enslave people or maybe the aliens are industrial types who want to improve their own technology infrastructure and human plunder.

Lead researcher Shawn Domagal-Goldman and his team assembled a list of hypothetical situations in order to help humans if humans will make contact with other life forms.

Report which is a joint effort between NASA and the Pennsylvania State University is answering the question "Is it profitable contact with aliens or even endanger human beings?".

Gives a favorable outcome, neutral and harmful, the report is designed to prepare mankind for the possibility of aliens who approached human occupancy of this planet.

In the best case scenario put forward, scientists claim, people can exchange information in order to overcome hunger, poverty and disease. Alternative scenario could see the triumph of man over foreign powers and learn their technology.

The report says, "In this scenario, humans benefit not only from the major moral victory after defeating the fearsome rival but also from the opportunity to 'capture' technology technician intelligent extraterrestrial (ETI)".

In the neutral category, it shows people can feel indifferent to each alien invaders as a useful communication impossible. There is even a possibility, the aliens are too bureaucratic and tedious for humans to join the 'Club Galaxy'.

For example as in the situation in the film 'District 9' in which the alien entered into a refugee camp in South Africa. In fact, while in the refugee camp, an alien can become a nuisance to the inhabitants of the earth.

The results also indicated that the most dangerous in the apocalyptic Hollywood movie script, which is on film-style attacks 'Independence Day' unintentional destruction of Earth or diseases that destroy the entire human population.

Suggestions on the movie to help the survival of man against the incident included, spending on broadcast warnings that might help an alien studying our biological building materials.

The first part of human contact should be restricted to account 'until the man has a better idea of ​​the type of ETI at hand'. The report adds, "A guerrilla attack (alien) will very likely occur in the early phase of human expansion because civilization can become increasingly difficult to destroy because it continues to grow."

Mankind may be entering a period where the rapid expansion of civilization can be detected ETI because of human expansion atmoster alter the composition of the Earth through greenhouse gas emissions.

"It gave people a reason to limit growth and reduce the impact on global ecosystems. This will be very important for humans to limit greenhouse gas emissions due to atmospheric composition could dispirited from another planet ".

Each year, The Many Ozone Hole

The UN agency reported a thinning of the Antarctic ozone layer of Earth this year. In addition, depletion of the overall average for the year likely.

Even so, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) United Nations said it was too early to make this kind of statement on estimates of ozone depletion report which acts as a shield protecting life on Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation.

Atlantic ozone hole is an annual phenomenon that occurs during winter or autumn. This phenomenon is due to very low temperatures on stratosphere and the presence of substances that can attenuate ozone.

While international developments in cutting production and consumption of ozone flimsy chemicals continue to be done, it took several decades to restore the atmospheric concentrations of such levels in 1980.

In mid-August as written by UPI, the existing ozone hole area was normal compared to recent years, greater than 2008 and 2010 but smaller than 2009.

Effect of Water on Body Parts

Effect of Water on 7 Body Part

Water is the main component in the human body, even about 55 percent of our body weight is water. Without water, living things grow and develop is not possible because water is vital for the body's chemical reactions.

Water should be consumed every day because the body cannot make it. To determine the role of water in our bodies, consider what the effect of water on the 7th part of the body the following:

1. Brain

The body is well hydrated will make a sharper memory, mood stable and better motivated. If sufficient water in the body well, our ability to solve problems will also increase.

Scientists say water shortages will cause the flow of oxygen to the brain area is reduced so that the nerve cells shrink while. No wonder the people who thirst is usually difficult to concentrate.

2. Mouth

Water will keep the throat and lips more moist and keep the mouth dryness. Dry mouth conditions that can trigger bad breath and bad taste, even cavities.

3. Heart

Dehydration will cause a decrease in blood volume so that the heart will work harder to pump blood to the cells are not starved of oxygen. As a result of light physical activity such as climbing stairs or running will feel more exhausting.

4. Blood Circulation

Body heat issue with the way blood vessels dilate near the skin surface so that the blood flow faster and more heat is released.

When we are dehydrated, it takes a higher temperature environment in order to widen the blood vessels so that we will remain hot.

5. Muscle

When the adequacy of fluid are met, the water inside and outside the cell contracts the muscles that function to provide adequate nutrition and disposal process takes place efficiently so the body will be good performance.

Water is also important to lubricate the joints. But the muscle cramps are not associated with dehydration, but because of muscle fatigue.

6. Skin

If someone is suffering from severe dehydration, the skin becomes less elastic. This condition is different from the dry skin, usually caused by chemicals in soap, hot water or exposed to dry air. Unfortunately, drinking enough water will not prevent wrinkles.

7. Kidney

The kidneys need to filter the liquid "waste" of blood circulation and get rid of through urine. Adequacy of fluid will also help prevent urinary tract infections and kidney stones.

Severe dehydration will cause the kidneys stop functioning, so that the toxin or toxins accumulate in the body.

Electronic tattoo

Electronic tattoo is Able to Detect Signs of Health Vital Patient

If you are a patient should always undergo a vital examination regularly, might be pleased with the arrival of this technology. Now you need not bother if you want to undergo medical tests, simply by installing these tattoos only, then the medical tests, particularly tests vital to be very easy.

An American researcher named John A Rogers has created a tattoo that can detect a patient's vital organs. The tattoo, said as quoted by Daily mail, can detect changes in the body's vital signs, such as temperature, heart rate, as well as transmit data wirelessly examination results.

To create a tattoo that this high-tech researchers include an electronic sensor into a film that is thinner than a human hair. Then placed on a polyester film which is used for temporary tattoos that are often owned by the children.
