DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (PNN) - July 12, 2017 - The future is here.
Well, almost. In February at the World Government Summit in Dubai, Chinese drone maker EHANG and Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced a partnership to produce an autonomous aerial vehicle (AAV) - know as the EHANG184 - to aid in Dubai's efforts to build the world's most intelligent transportation system.
TIJERAS, New Mexico (PNN) - July 10, 2017 - While there’s something disconcerting about having Big Brother listening in on family feuds, there is something to be said about smart devices alerting the terrorist pig thug cops when simple arguments turn into domestic disputes. The latter is what occurred at a home in New Mexico earlier this week, and authorities believe it may have played a life-saving role.
GENEVA, Switzerland (PNN) - July 7, 2017 - The Large Hadron Collider has once again done what it does best - smash bits of matter together and find new particles in the carnage.
This time physicists have come across a real charmer. It's four times heavier than a proton and could help challenge some ideas about how this kind of matter sticks together.
SHANGHAI, China (PNN) - July 1, 2016 - For the first time, scientists have successfully teleported a photon from the ground to a satellite in orbit.
It’s been 20 years since quantum scientists successfully teleported a photon over 10 miles, proving that quantum entanglement - a process that Albert Einstein called “spooky action at a distance” - was possible.
QINHUANGDAO CITY, Hebei, China (PNN) - June 13, 2017 - By heating carbon to an intimidating 1,000 degrees Celsius (1,800 degrees Fahrenheit), scientists have discovered a brand new elemental form that's ultra-strong and ultra-light, but also elastic like rubber and electrically conductive.
ECUADOREAN EMBASSY, England (PNN) June 2, 2017 - WikiLeaks just published details of a purported CIA operation that turns Windows file servers into covert attack machines that surreptitiously infect computers of interest inside a targeted network.
Superbug apocalypse rapidly approaching.
WASHINGTON (PNN) - June 1, 2017 - Nearly one-quarter of adults prescribed antibiotics as a first line treatment for community-acquired pneumonia were non-responsive to the medications, a new study has revealed. Current guidelines for community-acquired pneumonia, published by the American Thoracic Society and the Infectious Disease Society of America in 2007, offer insight on the disease. However, researchers noted that large-scale, real-world data were needed to gain greater knowledge of antibiotic choices and to better evaluate risk factors that may stem from treatment failure.
ARLINGTON, Virginia (PNN) - June 5, 2017 - Are there any bad memories in your life that you wish you could simply erase? Researchers might have found a way to do exactly that thanks to the discovery of the enzyme in the brain that plays a pivotal role in storing long-term memories. They believe that this enzyme could be targeted in order to essentially wipe distressing memories out of the minds of people suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, like many things that sound too good to be true, this development is raising red flags.
MONTREAL, Canada (PNN) - June 1, 2017 - Imagine a world where anyone could create a photo-realistic fake video in which whoever they choose can be made to say whatever they want. Add to that the ability to write a script and have a machine recite it back with the perfectly indistinguishable intonation of the person featured. We are officially moving closer to that world.
SAN DIEGO, Kalifornia (PNN) - May 31, 2017 - According to a revolutionary new study, a drug discovered more than a century ago may hold the key to combating the symptoms of autism. After just one dose, parents of the children in the study watched their children make incredible improvements, with some speaking for the first time.
