Stanislav Lem. The most famous aphorisms

Genius is not so much the actual light as the constant readiness to see the surrounding darkness.
Stupidity is the driving force of history.
If hell exists, then it must be computerized.
Mass culture is an anesthetic, an analgesic, not a drug.
We do not want to conquer space, we only want to push the boundaries of the Earth to its very limits.
A politician should not be too smart. A very smart politician sees that most of the tasks before him are completely unsolvable.
Civilization is created by idiots, and the rest disentangle the mess.
Man is a creature that most willingly talks about what he knows least about.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Mini air conditioner Sony Reon Pocket 5 09.05.2024

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Foam alternative 23.02.2021

Thermoboxes for food, cooler bags for soft drinks, isothermal containers for transporting medicines - all these and similar containers are made of materials that do not allow the products placed in them to change their initial temperature. And most often, polymers such as polystyrene foam and expanded polystyrene (styrofoam) are used as insulation.

A lot speaks in their favor: they have good thermal insulation properties, weigh very little, are highly durable, and withstand heavy loads. But all these advantages are covered by a significant drawback: expanded polystyrene and polystyrene are not biodegradable, and their waste, which can decompose into thousands of small particles, greatly pollutes the environment. Scientists at the Institute for Natural Materials Processing Technology at the Technical University of Dresden have come up with an alternative to them by creating a biodegradable insulation material from ... waste paper.

Scientists subjected scrap paper to special drying. This process resulted in the formation of fibrous-based insulating elements. The task of the researchers was to regulate the process of preparatory processing of raw materials and develop special formulations of fibrous materials - so that, as a result, the fibrous mats that form the basis of the insulating material had a very low density with a fairly close distribution of pores in size.

In this way, an optimum quality level of the insulating material was achieved. In general, a lot speaks in favor of cellulose, on the basis of which paper is made. In particular, it is durable and has a very low thermal conductivity. This means that the environmentally friendly fiber mats developed by Dresden scientists are superior in their properties to many other insulating materials - including polymers such as polystyrene foam and expanded polystyrene.

The quality of the insulating material made from recycled materials is so high that the containers in which it is integrated can be used even for transporting food. In addition, according to the Dresden scientists, the packaging they have developed is a completely recyclable product. Yes, the new insulation material is not entirely recycled paper. It also has a layer of polyethylene film. However, since its share is negligible - it is only 7 percent - the packaging can be disposed of as waste paper after use.
