New research from the Hubble Space Telescope has found something interesting is happening in the universe. Scientists have been studying new data from the Hubble telescope, and they say that the universe’s expansion rate is much quicker than previously thought. The research has found that to a precision rate of just over 1%, the universe…

Our problems continue…
…sorry for the downtime again. Hopefully, we have things fixed.
NVIDIA, IBM have a plan to connect GPUs straight to SSDs
In a research paper published by Cornell, a case is made for enabling fine-grain High Throughput GPU-Orchestrated Access to storage or cutting out the middle man overhead. Unfortunately, such a CPU-centric strategy causes excessive CPU-GPU synchronization overhead and/or I/O traffic amplification, diminishing the effective storage bandwidth for emerging applications with fine-grain data-dependent access patterns like…
Scientists make ‘miracle material’ breakthrough to revolutionise solar power
Anything to increase solar power is a good thing. Using this breakthrough technique, the scientists became the first team to create a solar cell capable of performing at a similar level to silicon cells while still remaining stable. For more, check out this Independent/MSN story.
Scientists Say There’s an ‘Anti-Universe’ Running Backward in Time
The more we understand the universe, they is more that sounds like science fiction. Scientists believe there could be an “anti-universe” somewhere out there that looks like the mirror image of our own universe, reciprocating almost everything we do. If this theory holds true, it could explain the presence of dark matter. For more, check…
The Holy Grail of Energy Generation Might Finally Be Within Our Grasp
The dream of producing power by utilizing nuclear fusion power is getting closer. There are two main types of fusion that are currently being researched. The first, inertial confinement fusion, involves using lasers to put the fuel under a massive amount of pressure and heat. At the National Ignition Facility where Zylstra does his research,…
Results from particle accelerator hint at ‘new mechanism in nature’
Still discovering new things in science. One of the world’s biggest particle accelerators has produced a troubling result: the mass of the W boson – a fundamental particle that is crucial for our understanding of matter and the universe – is not what it should be. For more, check out this El Pais/MSN story.
We’re back!
Sorry for the outage folks. We had a problem with the security certificate, but we are back now.
