Xiaomi Star Trang Telescope compact telescope

11.04.2019

Xiaomi introduced the Star Trang Telescope. The telescope is amateurish and has an affordable price, traditional for the products of a Chinese manufacturer. The novelty belongs to the usual refractor (lens) models and is priced at 599 yuan ($89).

The Xiaomi Star Trang telescope is equipped with custom-made eyepieces with a diameter of 23mm and 10mm (both with a 60-degree field of view), providing a magnification of 21,7x and 50x, respectively. The telescope objective is a lens with a multilayer coating that improves the optical performance of the system.

The advantages of the novelty, the developers also include portability and a unique design that provides flexible individual adjustment for anyone (geek, teenager or child). The manufacturer promises that the device will allow everyone to conveniently observe the reservoir, mountains and the starry sky.

The telescope is also equipped with a stainless steel tripod and special accessory protection discs to prevent damage to eyepieces and accessories. The Star Trang Telescope comes with a carry bag.

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 ... >>

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 ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Micron 9300 Solid State Drives 28.04.2019

Micron Technology has unveiled its flagship series of NVMe-enabled SSDs for cloud and enterprise servers. The drives use Micron's 64-layer 3D TLC NAND flash memory.

The Micron 9300 series includes three 9300 PRO models and three 9300 MAX models. The former are designed for read-intensive workloads and withstand one full overwrite per day for a five-year warranty period, while the latter are designed for mixed workloads and withstand three rewrites per day. The 9300 PRO drives are available in 3,84TB, 7,68TB and 15,36TB, while the 9300 MAX drives are available in 3,2TB, 6,4TB and 12,8TB. Both versions are available only in the U.2 form factor (2,5 inches, 15 mm thick). They are equipped with a PCIe Gen3 x4 interface.

The maximum sequential read speed is 3,5 GB/s. The write speed in the case of the smallest SSD is 3,1 GB / s, in all other cases - 3,5 GB / s. Performance on random access reads reaches 835 IOPS and 000 IOPS, respectively. As for performance on write operations, it differs for almost all models and ranges from 850 to 000 IOPS.
