Scientists were able to do something incredible: they were able to cool the substance is lower than the temperature, which until now was considered as an absolute minimum. In most modern textbooks on physics absolute zero on the Kelvin or minus 273,15 degrees Celsius is the lowest possible temperature, as it is the lightest element, hydrogen - completely loses its mobility, that is, figuratively speaking, freezes.

Even if the interplanetary flights would be a reality, scientists often say that the human body from a purely biological point of view await increasing threats. One of the main dangers experts call hard cosmic radiation. On other planets, for example the same Mars, this radiation is such that it significantly accelerate the onset of Alzheimer's disease.

As from non-living chemical elements appeared living organisms is an old issue facing scientists. But in a study published in the journal Physical Biology, researchers from Santa Fe offers quite plausible and integral explanation.

Let's see what programs and space, and suborbital launches planned for 2013.

Ion engine NASA Evolutionary Xenon Thruster (NEXT) set a new world record, having worked there continuously for 43 thousand hours during tests conducted at the Laboratory of electric propulsion systems Research center NASA Glenn. This samicoasty the engine is intended to power the future spacecraft, designed for missions to deep space and in missions where the use of engines on chemical jet-powered unacceptable for many reasons.

Unprecedented progress of science and technology, especially in the field of electronics, which we are witnessing in the last 10-15 years, generates optimism about the conquest of other planets. But scientists report numerous threats to the health of astronauts.

To make predictions for the world of digital technologies - business simple. What direction or coming, the whole essence of future changes, with rare exception, can be expressed in two words: smaller and more powerful

2012 became a turning point for world space exploration. The company, Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX), owned by its founder PayPalЭлону Mask (Elon Musk), after a successful test startocaster the first ever commercial launch of private vehicle to the ISS. The launch vehicle Falcon 9s apparatus Dragonдоставила on-orbit complex of a total of about 400 kg of cargo, returning to Earth about 760 kg of waste equipment and research materials. Ahead of SpaceX eleven more runs Dragon 1.6-billion-dollar contract with NASA.

...No wonder the journal Science described the experiment in the field of neutrino oscillations one of the ten scientific achievements of the year.

Space Agency NASA and the U.S. national science Foundation December 25, on the South Pole of the planet with the help of a balloon with hot helium LDB (Long Duration Balloon) has launched an unusual telescope that will explore submillimeter electromagnetic wave range and to study star formation in our galaxy.

New telescopic camera is watching the stars and planets that are eight billion light years away - maybe in the end, we will find the living and find out that you are not alone in space.

The U.S. Agency NASA has finished testing the prototype of the suit Z-1, which looks very similar to the suits from cartoons.

According to John Gergana, humanity will solve ethical problems of cloning, and will use it legally. Humanity will agree with reliable methods of cloning when I will be talking about the return of parents tragically deceased child or about the treatment of serious pathologies.

Parents, for example, who lost children in a tragic accident, will be able to clone them after about 50 years, says Nobel laureate, sir John Gourdon, a British scientist whose work involve the cloning of frogs in the 1950's and 60's, which then led to the creation of Dolly the sheep scientists in Edinburgh in 1996.

Recently scientists of Japan have managed to grow the perfect crystals of solid helium that in terrestrial laboratories to make very difficult - they are easily deformed under the action of gravity. However, the researchers did a very original way - they grew helium crystals in microgravity conditions that were created on Board a jet plane.
