Google announced that it plans on helping scientists to explore the universe



Google is one of the most powerful companies in the entire world, but it is still evolving to earn more power and popularity. It's clearly that the search giant wants to represent an important part of our lives, creating an impressive list of solutions meant to revolutionize the internet life: book search, patent search, docs & spreadsheets, university search and many, many other solutions.Another example that can sustain this statement is Google Earth, an application that allows us to observe earth maps captured directly from the satellite, a program that can help users analyze the elements of the earth.This time, Google announced that it plans on helping scientists to explore the universe by developing a high-tech telescope as a part of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope project."LSST will be the world's largest astronomical survey project, edging out the currently operating Sloan Digital Sky Survey for the title. Scheduled to come online in 2013, LSST will completely survey the night sky every three days from a mountaintop in northern Peru. The telescope's three billion-pixel imager-the largest digital camera ever built-will generate enormous quantities of data. Experts say about 30,000 gigabytes worth of images will be captured every night. At that rate, in less than a week LSST will collect as much data as the Sloan survey has gathered since 1999," National Geographic said.The telescope will analyze all the images immediately after they are captured and will be available for public, probably using another Google service. I guess Google is aiming to develop Google Earth to allow us to observe more than the Earth and, using the telescope, to analyze the universe. This is the first step made by Google in the astronomy area, excluding Google Earth or Maps, so we should expect for a new solution soon or maybe for the universe.google.com domain...

a new study. beta carotene

Carrots, rich in beta carotene, long have been thought to sharpen eyesight.A new study suggests that beta carotene pills are powerless against a common type of vision loss among older people. Age-related macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in people 65 and older. The condition blurs the center of the field of vision, making it difficult to read, drive, thread a needle and even recognize faces.Currently the best advice might be something you've heard before: Eat five or more servings of fruits and vegetables a day because it's the combination of nutrients that seems to be

meet Dante and his new face

The team from the University of Bologna, who remodelled this face, believe it was bent and crooked. Once a complete cast had been re-created the artists began applying the flesh. They used computer technology and new forensic techniques to simulate the muscles with plaster, plastic and other materials. Professor Gruppioni concedes that superficial details on the face, such as wrinkles and the expression around the eyes and mouth, are slightly speculative. But he is confident that the shape of the head, the proportion of the eyes, nose and mouth were as you see them. "It
