Once in the office at Starbucks, I came to think of unrestrained nanosatellites today when I took my breakfast..
Nano Satellites may sound more exotic than it actually is. The concept of nano-satellites really only refers to a classification of satellites with respect to its weight. It is often said that the class nano satellites ranging from 1 to 10 kg. The most common nano-satellite platform called Cubes and is a cube with sides of 10 cm and it was developed at Stanford University in California. A cube of side 10 cm is called re-1U (U = unit) and they put together two cubes, it will be 2U, etc.. Stanford has also developed a mechanism to turn on the rocket so that it can separate up to 3U in a smooth manner. This means that you can load with three pieces of 1U or 2U satellites and a 1U ... well you get the.

 The scanning electron microscope can be seen that temperature gradient is built up in the graph produced in silica.
The graph is better able to dissipate heat from electronic circuits than copper. The new research shows. The result could be a new industry standard.

 AACS electronics can handle tough situations. Now, wireless sensors, which harvest are own energy, monitor aircraft engines. This is where Peter Nilsson heating samples under vacuum.
AAC Microtec and Volvo Aero have cottoned on a hot trend: harvesting waste of energy. Wireless sensors in aircraft engines will be powered by energy from the environment.
The phenomenon known as energy harvesting, energy harvesting, and is a growing trend in the scientific community. But although the industries are investing, one example is the Uppsala company AAC Microtec, which together with Volvo Aero develops a wireless system of sensors to monitor aircraft engines.

 Bacteria tracked and killed by a red light.
With the help of nano-crystals have a group of researchers managed to identify and kill antibiotic-resistant bacteria?
A group of researchers associated with the University of Muenster have shown that the zeolite L crystals can adhere to the bacteria, highlight them and eventually kill them. Doctor Cristian Strassert is one of the researchers.
Nano-particles have been added that allows them to attach to the bacteria. The particles are also provided with a dye that shows green color under a flu-orensmikroskop, which makes it possible to identify the bacteria.

Emission-free driving, clean water, great progress in the fight against cancer and HIV - the wonders of technology solves all our problems?
The driver provides gas, the car accelerates, but from the exhaust stream is not the usual exhaust plumes, but only hot air. This is because of the unusual fuel instead of diesel or gasoline engines ignite in tiny metal particles, called nanoparticles of iron, aluminum or boron The combustion are oxides of a particle completely recovered. For this drive should be standard engines hardly modified.
