Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

supercomputer on the moon 16.10.2012

Uliang Chang, a graduate of the University of Southern California, believes that placing a supercomputer on the moon can solve many of the problems of space exploration.

Chang announced his idea at a conference in Pasadena, California dedicated to space exploration. The plan is to install a powerful supercomputer in one of the deep, dark craters on the far side of the moon. The advantage of such placement is that the supercomputer would be shielded from humanity's electromagnetic noise by the Moon. A powerful computer powered by an atomic or solar power source could be used to process data for space flights and provide deep space communications. This has become increasingly important in recent decades as more and more information is collected by robotic probes, and manned missions are already aimed beyond the Earth's orbit: to Mars and into the Asteroid Belt.

For example, the deep space network of 13 giant antennas located in the US, Australia and Spain is already overloaded. It is necessary either to build new huge transceivers, the operation of which is hampered by the rotation of the Earth, or, according to Chang, to shift data processing to a lunar supercomputer.

Chang believes that the supercomputer should be placed in cold regions near one of the moon's poles. The low ambient temperature will facilitate the cooling of high-performance microcircuits and, most importantly, will allow the use of super-efficient superconducting materials for power transmission. Interestingly, Chang suggests using water to cool the supercomputer. There are hints of the presence of water on the Moon, but no large deposits of ice have yet been found.

There is no doubt about the usefulness of a lunar supercomputer; NASA has repeatedly made statements that in the near future data transmission networks in near-Earth space will be overcrowded. If we add to this the future exploration of deep space, then it is required today to look for solutions to this problem. True, a lunar computer is very expensive: according to various estimates, from 10 to 20 billion dollars. On the other hand, it can become part of an international inhabited lunar base, which will simplify the implementation of an ambitious project.
