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...]
New Bill in Romania to Allow Telecom Operators to Pay Less if Radio Interference Occurs
Romania’s Ministry of Communications has proposed a bill that will allow telecommunication operators to pay less to use radio frequencies if the frequencies are interfered by other radio stations. Radio interference from other radio communication stations can greatly affect the telecom operator’s work. The Ministry released the draft of the bill while a disagreement between … [Read more...]
Sirens Fail to Function During Tornado Warning Due to Radio Interference
An outdoor warning system failed to function properly during a tornado warning in Hannibal, Missouri on June 28 due to radio interference. Mike Hall, Marion County 911 director, is certain that the radio interference came from HPD traffic. “The city’s 16-siren system is activated through a single radio transmission. A day after the storm, Hall reported a review of the 911 … [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...]
The Simplified Method and the Near-Field Catastrophe
The simplified method, and in particular the system base-RF-power determination used in the simplified method equation, only applies to far-field data. Why? Well, as an example, the radiation polar-plot provided by antenna suppliers is far-field data and in no way represents how the field-strength varies with angle close to the antenna.So where exactly is the near-field / … [Read more...]
Astronomers Unveil View of Galaxy’s Electromagnetic Loop
This week at the National Astronomy Meeting (NAM 2015) in Wales, scientists working with the Planck Satellite, including Mike Peel and Paddy Leahy, revealed a new polarization map of the Milky Way in microwaves. This particular view of the electromagnetic loop discovered more than half of a century ago, has never been seen before. “It’s a full sky map showing synchrotron loops … [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...]
‘Unstoppable’ New Hacking Device Steals Encryption Keys Out of the Air
A group of researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Israeli research center have produced a new hacking device that can steal encryption keys “out of the air.” The device cannot be stopped by disabling Wi-Fi networks or turning off Bluetooth because the device doesn’t use standard communication methods to steal data. The device uses radio waves emitted from computer … [Read more...]
