There are few places in the universe that invite as much curiosity—and terror—as the interior of a black hole. These extreme objects exert such a powerful gravitational pull that not even light can escape them, a feature that has left many properties of black holes unexplained.

Now, a team led by Enrico Rinaldi, a research scientist at the University of Michigan, have used quantum computing and deep learning to probe the bizarre innards of black holes under the framework of a mind-boggling idea called holographic duality. This idea posits that black holes, or even the universe itself, might be holograms.

We’ve seen many reports of a massive assortment of Tesla cars ready to leave Shanghai for global delivery. This doesn’t mean Tesla won’t also deliver in China.

Microsoft’s Azure and Research teams are working together on the ‘Singularity’ AI infrastructure service.

Ceres, the only inner solar system dwarf planet, has brines that could keep a liquid water ocean stable somewhere under its surface.

Computational performance has followed Moore’s Law since the dawn of the computer age. Not any more.

It will look back in time to its beginning, study the Universe’s expansion, galaxies, black holes, stars, planets and seek bio-signatures.

Scientists at Case Western Reserve University have developed an inexpensive way to transform an ordinary shirt into an electronic smart shirt—one able to monitor and adjust body temperature or even allow the wearer to apply heat to a sore shoulder or back.

All from a design printed on the fabric of the shirt or any other piece of clothing.

The key to their innovation: A highly conductive ink and simple screen-printing process. The new method results in a waterproof, breathable and highly flexible design that can function as a heating element when powered by a coin-sized battery.

This group appears to be doing its ‘bit’ for NEO identification and is always open to new members, check it out?

IAWN was established (2013) as a result of the UN-endorsed recommendations for an international response to a potential NEO impact threat, to create an international group of organizations involved in detecting, tracking, and characterizing NEOs. The IAWN is tasked with developing a strategy using well-defined communication plans and protocols to assist Governments in the analysis of asteroid impact consequences and in the planning of mitigation responses.
