The Last Supernova : Discovered
…Astronomers regularly observe supernovae in other galaxies like ours. Based on those observations, researchers estimated about three explosions every century in the Milky Way. The tracking of this object began in 1985, when astronomers, used the Very Large Array to identify the remnant of a supernova explosion near the center of our galaxy. Based on its small size, it was thought to have resulted from a supernova that exploded about 400 to 1000 years ago… Continue reading

Tesla Roadster 2008 : The First Electric Sports Car
…And its 6,831-cell lithium-ion battery pack gives off no emissions. The car goes from 0 to 60 mph in just under four seconds and tops out at 125 mph. It goes 225 miles on one charge and can be fully recharged in 3½ hours, which Tesla officials say should allow most people to drive it to work and back and recharge it at night like a cell phone… Continue reading

The Eco-House
The whole idea and all kudos must go to Mr. Michael Rea and Duncan Price. A zero carbon house has been built on Britain’s most northerly island of Unst, which will bring obvious benefits to the environment. The carbon neutral home lowers the carbon footprint by producing its own energy and storing it to heat the home. Food will be grown in high-tech greenhouses using a hydroponic growing medium and LEDs which use only a small amount of energy to manipulate the plants and extend the growing period. Later this year, 2008, they will be using a thermal imaging camera to check the thermal properties of the house for leakage etc. As well as the obvious benefits to the environment, it is hoped that the Zero Carbon House project will benefit the island of Unst by helping to raise the profile of a fragile island community… Continue reading
