Researchers have discovered a new particle that doesn’t consume a lot of energy, and thus doesn’t require an elaborate cooling system. It is called the Weyl fermion, a particle that only exists inside materials and “moves through materials practically without resistance,” according to Nanowerk.com. In contrast to today’s computer chips relying on “electrons which are always … [Read more...]
Study Shows LED Lighting Helps Grow Edible Plants for Space Missions
The University of Arizona Controlled Environment Agriculture Center (CEAC) and Phillips Lighting have conducted a recent study to find that placing LED lighting in a lunar greenhouse prototype increases the amount of high-quality, edible lettuce produced. The study was conducted in a nine week period, according to EETimes Europe, where they replaced water-cooled high-pressure … [Read more...]

More Energy Efficient Future Supercomputers Thanks to ATP Chemical Found in Humans
Recently, scientists from McGill University have discovered that ATP, “a chemical which provides energy to cells inside the human body, could also power an energy efficient biological supercomputer,” according to Valuewalk.com. Valuewalk said the researchers replaced electrons with Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) “when building chips, in order to reduce costs and cool the … [Read more...]
