Military Radio Frequencies May Interfere with Garage Door Openers

 

Remote-control garage door openers near the Blue Grass Army Depot in Richmond K.Y. may stop working due to military radio systems switching to a new frequency range. The U.S. military will switch all land mobile radios (LMRs) to new frequencies, which are also the same frequencies used by certain unlicensed consumer devices, like garage door openers. These frequencies have … [Read more...]

NASA Developing Early Warning System for Solar Flares

 

NASA has announced it is developing an early warning system for solar flares to give the Earth more time to prepare for storms, thus reducing damage. Scientists from both NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and Imperial College London published their research and experiments in Space Weather in the June 9 edition. Their research demonstrates how the new warning system can both … [Read more...]
