Electromagnetic Impulse Readings to Help Identify Possible Earthquakes

 

NASA has launched a software known as ‘Quest For Quakes,’ which is designed to spot electromagnetic pulses before earthquakes occur. “‘Quest For Quakes’ encourages individuals knowledgeable in writing software codes and devising algorithms to search for evidence that could back the theory of electromagnetic pulses preceding earthquakes,” according to researchers. The ‘Quest For … [Read more...]

TECH TIDBIT: NASA Successfully Records Sound in Space

 

According to NASA, there is sound in space: electromagnetic vibrations that pulsate in wavelengths create this unique sound. NASA successfully recorded electromagnetic vibrations and transformed them into sounds that the human ear can pick up. To listen to the sounds from space, click here. … [Read more...]

Stephen Hawking Project Questions Why Earth has No Communication with Extraterrestrial Life

 

Stephen Hawking recently discussed his new 100 million dollar project aimed at discovering extraterrestrial life (aliens), titled “Breakthrough Listen.” Frank Drake, chairman emeritus of the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute, produced an equation in 1961 for calculating the amount of alien civilizations capable of communication with humans. When Drake plugs … [Read more...]

Study Reveals Radiation from Solar Events Unlikely to Affect Earth

 

“In recent years, research has suggested congenital birth defects down on Earth's surface could be caused by these ‘solar particle events’ - spikes in cosmic rays from the sun that touch off the northern lights and sometimes hamper communications or the electric power grid,” according to Science Daily. Even though airplane crews at high altitudes are exposed to harmful levels … [Read more...]

NASA Captures Four-hour Solar Flare on Video

 

NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) captured a solar flare and a coronal mass ejection (CME) on video on June 18. “The SDO has been studying the Sun since 2010 and captured this flare at multiple wavelengths, allowing it to show the ultraviolet light of the massive flare,” according to Mirror Online. The solar flare, which has been named “Spit of Satan,” lasted for four … [Read more...]

Microwave Vision Group (MVG) announces the success of its new RF safety device, the EME Guard XS. The EME Guard XS is a small, portable, robust, user-friendly, and economically manufactured RF safety tool that offers high reliability. The device alerts people working near antennas to excessive EMF exposure levels. The device is best suited for people working near antennas, … [Read more...]

New Radio Telescope Detects Galaxy From 5 Billion Light Years Away

 

A new radio telescope in Western Australia, known as Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), has discovered PKS B1740-517 – a galaxy located more than 5 billion light years away. Six of the 36 dishes on the radio telescope captured signals emitted from PKS B1740-517. This discovery demonstrates that ASKAP can detect galaxies and signals that other telescopes … [Read more...]

Spaceship Antenna to Prevent Communication Blackouts

 

A team of scientists from the Harbin Institute of Technology proposed a new spaceship antenna to prevent space communication blackouts. The group’s research has been published in the Journal of Applied Physics. The new antenna can prevent communication blackouts in space when spacecraft are coming back into Earth’s atmosphere. “The proposed technique can maintain … [Read more...]
