West Virginia Residents Fear ‘Quiet Zone’ May be Abolished
A national radio quiet zone was established in Green Bank, West Virginia in 1958 to house the world’s largest fully steerable radio telescope – the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope. The telescope successfully works due to the lack of interference from other transmissions. “Electrosensitives,” flocked to the area for more than 10 years. “Electrosensitives” are people who … [Read more...]
FDA Approves Weight Loss Device that Uses Electronic Waves
The Food and Drug Administration has approved a weight loss treatment device, the Maestro Rechargeable System, for obese adults. The device targets the nerve pathway between the brain and the stomach, which controls hunger and fullness feelings. The Maestro Rechargeable System is the first FDA approved obesity device since 2007. The device is approved to treat patients 18 or … [Read more...]
New Multichannel Ultrasound Platform Offers Customizable Experience
German scientists have developed a multichannel ultrasound platform that can be adapted to fit a variety of different applications. Typically, ultrasound systems – for example, medical sonograms, submarine sonars, and more – are so specialized that they cannot be used outside of their intended purpose. However, in a recent press release from Fraunhofer-Gessellschaft, … [Read more...]
‘Electrosensitives’ Congregate in Wi-Fi Quiet Zone in West Virginia
A national radio quiet zone in Green Bank, West Virginia, limits transmissions to protect a government telescope. This telescope, known as the National Radio Astronomy Observatory's Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope, is the world’s largest fully steerable radio telescope. The telescope can pick up radio waves from space that are weak and difficult to identify. “The Federal … [Read more...]
Korean Study Reveals Negative Effects of Terahertz EM-Waves in Living Organisms
In a premiere study on the effects of teraherz waves on living organisms, scientists in Korea have observed heightened skin inflammation in mice exposed to strong terahertz waves, signaling the potentially dangerous side effects of these waves in other living beings, such as humans. Terahertz wavelengths, located between infrared waves and microwaves on the electromagnetic … [Read more...]
