AErospace Designs Being Used In Wave Energy System

JMH Techtronics -- Frist off, lets explain what a wave energy system is. At first read you probably think this has something to do with radio, gamma, or whatever type of wave in some sort of central vacuum system that pops into your mind. At least it did the first time I heard about it a couple years ago. It is the most common wave, however. Water waves in the ocean. The ones we like to surf on. Ocean wave energy is...     11-23

CO2 Emissions Have Increased 29% Since 2000

JMH Techtronics -- So much for the green movement. More evidence that the rise in atmospheric CO2 emissions continues to outstrip the ability of the worlds natural sinks to absorb carbon is published November 17 in the journal Nature Geoscience. An international team of researchers under the umbrella of the Global Carbon Project reports that over the last 50 years the average fraction of global CO2 emissions that re...     11-18

Heart Disease Found in Egyptian Mummies

JMH Techtronics -- Hardening of the arteries is at least as old as your mummy. God grief that was stupidlol Lets try that again. Heart disease has been found in Egyptian mummies as old as 3,5000 years old. This suggests that the factors of the heart are not just a modern day factor from modern day problems. So that ag of potato chips you scarfed down at your Outer Banks rentals probably isnt the only thing that gave...     11-18

Embryonic Stem Cells With Big Results in Rats With Neck Injuries

JMH Techtronics -- We have just been informed that the first human embryonic stem cell treatment may be approved by the FDA for human testing. While the treatment was approved for testing back in January, testing in humans with cervical damage wasnt approved because preclinical testing with rats hadnt been completed.Results of the cervical study currently appear online in the journal Stem Cells on the UC Irvine webs...     11-11

TV Exposure Makes Children Crazy

JMH Techtronics -- According to a report in the November issue of Archives of PediatricsAdolescent Medicine, a study of 3-year olds who watch a lot of TV may be much more aggressive than those that do not. Really? You mean violence shown to children has an affect on them? You dont say. Early childhood aggression can be problematic for parents, teachers and childhood peers and sometimes is predictive of more serious ...     11-06

Ocean in the Desert

JMH Techtronics -- In 2005, a 35 mile rift broke through around Ethiopia in Africa, that some scientist believed might be the formation of a new ocean. Further study of the area has pulled more scientists into this belief as well.The fat burner volcanic processes at work beneath the Ethiopian rift are nearly identical to those at the bottom of the worlds oceans, and the rift is indeed likely the beginning of a new s...     11-06

Antioxidents the Achille’s Heel of Influenza?

JMH Techtronics -- Everyone knows that eating health is important to keep the immune system healthy. They also know that anitoxidents probably help do something. Even if they dont know exactly what, we have certainly been groomed to believe in the last few years that antioxidents are extremely helpful when it comes to our health. Is the same true when it comes to influenza, or even H1N1, better known as Swine Flu (I...     11-01

Stem Cell Research Looking to Help Understand Infertility

JMH Techtronics -- Every time I see stem cells in a headline you can expect to see me post about it. Why? Simply because the benefits of stem cell research are off the charts, and for some reason we have many people that dont want us doing it for various reasons (mostly because they dont understand it, combined with religion). New research is being done at the Stanford University School of Medicine that hopes to unr...     10-30

Possible Mysterious Force on Dark MAtter May Revolutionize Gravity Understanding

JMH Techtronics -- A group of astronomers have discovered a possible force acting on dark matter that could change the way we think about and understand one of the most basic principles of our scientific understanding: Gravity. Dr Hongsheng Zhao of the SUPA Centre of Gravity, University of St. Andrews, suggests that an unknown force is acting on dark matter. Roughly 4% of the known universe is made up of things that...     10-26

NSF Awards 32 New Plant Genome Projects

JMH Techtronics -- The National Science Foundation (NSF) has just awarded just over $100 million to 32 plant genome research projects. These projects are designed to to help in the understanding of the plant genome in hopes that they will be able to understand more fully how they react to the environment. The projects are there to find ways to more productive ways to generate economically important crop plants such ...     10-26

Antarctic Sheet Not Losing Ice As Fast As Previously Thought?

JMH Techtronics -- Here we go again. It seems to me that these sort of things would be rather straight forward. There was this much ice this many years ago, and now there is this much ice now. That ice has been depleting at X number of meters per year, and this is the rate. Apparently it isnt as easy as all that, and now there is a study by the West Antarctic GPS Network (WAGN) project that shows the ice in the Anta...     10-22

Crashing Cash Into the Moon

JMH Techtronics -- When I first started reading this story, all I could think of was Man, what a friggin waste of money this is. After reading further, I still feel the same. At 7:31 a.m. EDT on October 9, an empty rocket booster was deliberately crashed into Cabeus, a shadowed crater near the moon’s south pole where ice is suspected to reside. Astronomers watched through telescopes and the visible-light camera aboa...     10-13

Toxin That Kills Fish Could Kill Cancer Cells Too

JMH Techtronics -- While anything that effectively kills another species outright sounds awfully dangerous to me when considered as a form of treatment for a human, cancer is a pretty big ass kicker itself so I am interested in just about anything that may help fighting it. A powerful fish-killing toxin could have cancer-killing properties as well, according to collaborative research led by Agricultural Research Ser...     10-05

Water Ice Seen in Fresh Martian Meteor Craters

JMH Techtronics -- Some recent meteor pounding on Mars has revealed some craters that show a bit of bright ice exposed at five Martian sites with new craters that range in depth from approximately half a meter to 2.5 meters. Theice was not seen in previous photos of the same sites. Some of the craters show a thin layer of bright ice atop darker underlying material. The bright patches darkened in the weeks following ...     09-26

Researchers Crack Flying Insect Aerodynamics

JMH Techtronics -- About a month ago I shared a story that I called, Kill Every Fly You See, about some researchers that had discovered how to make micro-flying robots actually fly better than flies. They discovered that rotating wings, rather than flapping wings were more efficient and burned less energy.Now, another set of researchers, have published a study that focuses on the amazing aerodynamics of the flying i...     09-21

Raptorex: 1/100th Perfect Scale of Descendant T. Rex

JMH Techtronics -- A 125 Million year-old dinosaur, standing at just 9-feet tall, shows the features of the great T. Rex.Raptorex shows that tyrannosaur design evolved at punk size, said Sereno, a National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, basically our [human] body weight. And thats pretty staggering, because theres no other example that I can think of where an animal has been so finely designed at about 100th the ...     09-20

Research Finds That Plant and Animal Fossils Not Needed for Crude Oil

JMH Techtronics -- Swedish researches at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, have proven that fossils from animals and plants are not necessary for oil and natural gas generation. This is a pretty big deal. “Using our research we can even say where oil could be found in Sweden,” says Vladimir Kutcherov, a professor at the Division of Energy Technology at KTH.

New Discovery In Earth’s Atmosphere: Solar Wind Energy Transfer

JMH Techtronics -- This is going to be a bit technical, and kind of difficult to grasp I would guess, but it is something that is considered quite an important discovery so I want to at least put it out there for people to try and understand. At least describe the finding and what had originally been considered the norm. The discovery isnt exactly something I want to draw conclusions on since there is so little know...     09-13

New Species: Giant Rat!

A Smithsonian Institution biologist, working with the Natural History Unit of the BBC, has discovered a new species o...     09-10
