High School Students Successfully Change Smoke So Oxygen

Two high school students (SMA) Negeri 3 Semarang, Indonesia, creating converts smoke into oxygen which won the International Exhibition for Young Inventors (IEIY) 2012 in Bangkok, Thailand.

The tool is called T-Box Application to Reduce the Danger Impact of CO and CO2 in Smoking Room, Hermawan Maulana said, one of the students of SMA Negeri 3 Semarang, winner IEIY 2012.

He also said that now it has a lot of available space for smoking (smoking room). However, not much will be used as a smoke-filled room. The idea of ​​making a tool to filter out carbon dioxide (CO2) into oxygen was preceded anxiety to see that more and more smokers.

With these tools, he said, cigarette smoke containing CO 2 will be parsed into oxygen, and oxygen is passed back to the smoking room, so the facility can be fully utilized by the smoker.

At a minimum, smokers in the smoking room and did not smoke at random so as not to disturb others. We created it because it has not been able to reduce the number of smokers, said the teen birth Pekanbaru, May 24, 1996.

Related to the workings of the machine, turn Afdi which explains, that the tool was originally named "Carbofil Application" it works suck smoke into the already assembled machine components. Within these tools, cigarette smoke will be parsed into oxygen and then reflowed. In addition to oxygen, carbon filtration is also leaving. However, the solid form of carbon that can be used again.

Meanwhile, the Head of SMA Negeri 3 Semarang, Hari Waluyo, said they were proud with the achievements of students in the event that took place in Bangkok on 28 June to 1 July 2012 and is capable of defeating the participants from various countries.

Carnivorous plants that can chew and destroy the whole meat mice

Some scientists have found a carnivorous plant that can chew and destroy the whole meat mice.

This plant was discovered by Stewart McPherson, owner of British publishing house, Redfern Natural History Productions. He found it when an expedition to Mount Victoria in the Philippines, along with fellow botanist Alastair Robinson and Volker Heinrich.

Plants are still in a family with bags trap plants (pitcher) that grows to the height of more than 4 feet or 1.2 meters. Expedition team, said, "This plant is the largest carnivorous plant ever discovered in the 21st century."

Detailed information about the discovery of Nepenthes plants attenboroughii named this in honor of the British naturalist Sir David Attenborough, was also published in the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society.

These plants produce a 'pitcher' a large, hollow, and filled water with the leaf structure. Plants are then issued a nectar to attract insects and some rodents.

Judging from the structure of the leaf, bags, and flowers, the expedition team is confident that this new species are close relatives of Nepenthes Rajah from Borneo and possibly also related to the Nepenthes flora from Palawan and Borneo.

The remarkably well preserved frozen carcass was discovered in Siberia as part of a BBC/Discovery Channel-funded expedition and is believed to be at least 10,000 years old, if not older. If further study confirms the preliminary findings, it would be the first mammoth carcass revealing signs of human interaction in the region.

"This is the first relatively complete mammoth carcass -- that is, a body with soft tissues preserved -- to show evidence of human association," said Daniel Fisher, curator and director of the University of Michigan's Museum of Paleontology, as quoted from Live Science (04/04/2012).

Although carbon dating is still in the works, the researchers believe Yuka died at least 10,000 years ago, but may be much older. The animal was about 2.5 years old when it died.

Monster in the deep ocean | Tiny sea creatures look like they came from another planet

Looks like a monster, tiny sea creatures look like they came from another planet. Living far estranged from the beam, this scary-looking creature at the bottom of Earth's deepest ocean.

Stunning images of polychaetes or worm scale, showing how these creatures have evolved to withstand the intense pressure of more than a thousand feet below the water surface, where sunlight can not penetrate it. It is hoped the discovery of this region can provide a bright spot, the possibility of life on other planets.

Of these polychaetes images that can show their mouth and out, making it easier to swallow prey. This picture was revealed in a series of images just released by researchers in the sea.

Creatures whose length is more than two or three inches, is part of an ecosystem are not known until 40 years ago. But since the 1970s, technological developments have enabled a deeper exploration and the application allows the scientists to review their ideas about the deep ocean floor.

Instead of finding a barren desert, they actually found a diverse community of creatures living there and around hydrothermal vents. More popularly known as 'smokers', these hydrothermal vents are cracks in the seafloor that biasnaya found around the quake zone, volcanic and tectonic plate edges.

Biggest Solar Storm since 2005 will headed Earth

The National Weather Service United States (U.S.) predicts the biggest solar storm since 2005 occurred on this day. Effects experienced by the Earth is a powerful radiation.

According to NASA, the bursts of the solar corona (CME) will reach speeds of 2.253 km / sec. These solar storms will touch the earth's upper atmosphere on Tuesday (1/24), approximately at 09:00 U.S. time. These solar storms will last for approximately 7 hours.

NASA categorize this solar radiation storms reaching the S3 level or stronger. Similarly, as reported by gizmag.com, Tuesday (01/24/2012).

While the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) states, the weather will continue to rise in the earth from Tuesday to Wednesday (1/25) tomorrow.

Bursts of solar radiation has the potential to isolate the computer systems that exist on earth satellite, damaging connections lsitrik, and interfere with radio transmissions. In addition, this radiation will also affect humans who are in space and in altitude, such as on airplanes.

To deal with this radiation, a number of flights in the Arctic has been diverted. Then, too, launching a satellite into space also will be suspended, at least wait until the finished solar storms.

Meanwhile, the collision of charged particles with the energetic atoms in a layer of earth's thermosphere will produce Aurora around the Arctic circle.

"The storm this time the sun is the biggest since May 2005, while the rest only about 10 percent," said physicist from the SWPC, Doug Biesecker, as reported by the Los Angeles Times.

These solar storms will also interfere with GPS systems. While on Tuesday night, the sky will look a certain color and light which is the effect of these solar storms. At that time, a number of energetic particles will penetrate into Earth's atmosphere.

The photographs show some number of objects that resemble a "disk", "black flap", and "scorpion". Some object that resembles a living being detected in a number of photos taken lander or rover engine "probe".

According to Russian scientists, all objects that "appear, fluctuate, and disappear", by referring to the location they are moving like the appearance of the other photos and the traces on the ground. Morphological features of the object that will allow them to live.

Venus theory previously stated that there is no data evidence the existence of life on Venus, with soil temperatures reaching 464 degrees Celsius.
