Solar storms can cause major disturbance to human civilisation by affecting satellite operations and communications, large electrical power grids and global positioning systems (GPS). The GRAPES-3 muon telescope located at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research’s Cosmic Ray Laboratory in Ooty in Tamil Nadu recorded a burst of galactic cosmic rays of about 20 GeV around midnight of 22 June 2015, which lasted for two hours. The magnetic field bent these particles about 180 degree, where they were detected as a burst by the GRAPES-3 muon telescope last year....

Astrophysicist, Dr. Luke Davies, from the University of Western Australia node of ICRAR said: “Our nearest major galactic neighbor, Andromeda, is hurtling on a collision course with the Milky Way at about 400,000 kilometer per hour.” However, it would take at least another four billions for both of these to collide, hence there is no need to panic. Until now, astronomers believed that whenever two galaxies collide with each other it results into formation of new stars which occurs at a much faster rate, than if they remained separate....

During their study, researchers found that animals are dying almost 114 times faster than their normal rate between mass extinctions, this is known as the background rate. Researchers believe this occurs due to adverse climatic changes triggered by loss of habitat and extreme pollution. Scientists have further mentioned that their analysis is “extremely conservative”. They believe that if the species continue to disappear at the current rate, then the possibility of preventing the mass extinction or mass species disaster will be next to impossible....

If you aren’t familiar with containerism, then we’ll give you the quick and simple version. See, the use of virtual machines is the current trend, because virtual machines allow for the optimal utilization of the power of a computer system. Prior to the use of virtual machines, systems were limited to running a single process for fear that running two processes simultaneously would lead to a metaphorical tug-of-war for resources between the two processes....

According to the researchers they made it fly similar to a bee, but to ensure it could swim in water as well, they took inspiration from the Puffin. Puffin uses its wings to both fly and propel itself through the water when diving for fish. The researchers limited the robot’s wing speed from 120 flaps per second and adjusted the stroke angle of its wings so it could move through the water....

Jatupat Boonpattararaksa was arrested in north-eastern Thailand and charged under the country’s lese-majeste law with royal insult under Article 112 of Thailand’s criminal code in the city of Khon Kaen.
