“Moon is caused by collision with another planet earth” – A look at news

The earth turns in his early years frontally collided with the planet called Theia . The latter broke apart. Part of this planet was recorded by the collision with the earth, the other part was our moon. That put American scientist Edward Young and his colleagues at the American University UCLA in response to new research.

Young and studied his team again the composition of seven moonstones, brought back by the Apollo missions, and a meteorite from the moon. On the other hand they took six stones from the mantle of the earth under the microscope. And as it turned out, the stones contain oxygen atoms which are made exactly the same. The researchers conclude that the stones have the same origin.

“Moon was caused by frontal impact ‘- Watch

Written on January 30, 2016 by JPK

The moon arose because in the early days of our solar system a right to object popped the earth, says an international team of researchers.

The fact that the moon formed after a planet-like object named Theia was crashed into the earth, is something that most scientists can find themselves in it. But what kind of collision was that exactly? A frontal action, the American scientist Edward Young and his colleagues in response to new research.

seven moonstones

Earlier seemed a collision at an angle of 45 degrees or more likely. That conclusion you can directly draw from the fact that the relationships between the various oxygen isotopes in moon differed from those of the earth, as the German geologist Daniel Herwartz and his team noted in 2014.

Young and his team oxygen ratios which have now re-examined. On the one hand they studied the composition of seven moonstones, brought back by the Apollo missions, and a meteorite from the moon. On the other hand they took six stones from the mantle of the earth under the microscope.

Their conclusion:. there is, contrary to what Herwartz and his followers claimed, as well as no difference between the oxygen proportions in the moon, and in which the earth. And that does not rhyme with a collision at an angle; then the largest part of Theia ended up at the moon. Was the frontal collision, however, reports a press release from the University of California in LA, it would have ensured that the Theia material evenly between earth and moon was divided. The result is the same oxygen ratios that Young and his team have now measured

“Young earth crashed head-on into another planet ‘- NU.nl

The collision with the earth shattered the planet Theia. From the fragments originated the moon, but also the residues are sucked up by the earth

In other words., The earth still contains remains of the oerplaneet. This is the conclusion a group of American scientists in the authoritative scientific journal Science .

It was already known that there is a collision must have been between the Earth and Theia. That should have happened about 4.5 billion years ago when the Earth was 100 million years old. But it was not clear what was the impact of his work and what the consequences were.

Fingerprint

The researchers from the University of California looked at the chemical “fingerprint” of seven stones that astronauts have collected previously on the moon. They compared to six volcanic stones from the interior of the earth. The stones were in terms of chemical composition identical to each other, which means they must have the same origin.

These findings lead the researchers conclude that the collision must have been frontally between Earth and Theia. The rock of Theia is the bang probably mixed with those of the earth. That would explain why rocks on both bodies have no different “fingerprints”.

“The collision was so powerful and so rich in energy that the whole system was mixed in together,” principal investigator Edward Donald Young explains in news Popular Mechanics

Torn

Until now, the prevailing theory that Theia along the earth is shaved. In addition, the planet would be torn to pieces. The remains would have been in orbit around the Earth and eventually would have the moon formed.

But in that case, the stones on the moon should be different from the rocks on earth, because they have a different origin would have. According to lead researcher Young this theory can also be written off

Research fatal accident, “Zaanstad fell short in security … – A look at news

The OVV writes: All the Spare Parts met the requirements, but that was not sufficient for a safe system ‘

A 57-year-old woman last year made a fatal fall when the bridge opened. while she was still on. She had seen the traffic on the head and noticed only that the bridge was open when she heard the bell at the fall of the barriers. Presumably she thought as she stood before the first barrier and had not seen that she was inmidels between the barriers. So she was located on the moving bridge portion and at the highest point. When the bridge went all the way up, she fell down. She survived the fall of 15 meters and not died on the spot

The Council claims that it was difficult for pedestrians and cyclists to orientate themselves on the bridge. Also signs that the bridge was opened briefly, only with traffic. The movable bridge part where the woman was standing, was not clearly marked. The Council further states that the municipality should do more to ensure that the bridge operator could do his job properly and safely. According to the Council saw the municipality operating the bridge remotely just as a technical issue. “It was assumed that it was safe as long as the technology and cameras but of good quality.” According to the Council, the bridge operator did not see the bike star when he opened the bridge.

The situation in Zaanstad does not stand alone, because more and more bridges are remotely controlled. The Council considers it important that other bridge operators once properly scrutinize the safety of their bridges operated remotely.

Bridge Drama: “My mother clattered 16 meters down on the concrete ‘- Yahoo! News

A tough conclusion: Zaanstad could have done more to prevent the death of Wesley’s mother. “We probably get compensation, but that we do not get back our mother.”

It has been almost a year since the 57-year-old mother of Wesley tragically lost his life at the Den Uylbrug in Zaandam.

“My mother was on the bike route to the pool. To laps with my aunt, “says Wesley RTL Nieuws.

Terrible discovery
But Wesley’s mother never came to that. The aunt got worried and called Wesley’s father. “My parents live close to the bridge. From the window, my father saw that bridge for a while was open and that there are many ambulances driving around. He thought my mother was waiting there.”

When Wesley’s father went to the bridge, he made the terrible discovery: his wife was in the water. She was deceased.

Open
Wesley’s mother rode on the moving bridge portion when the bridge was opened. The woman fell down when the bridge was almost completely opened. “They had nowhere to go when the bridge went up. If a rat she was trapped. She is 16 meter fallen down and landed on the concrete. She was killed instantly.”

Hard conclusion
morning Wesley was visited by members of the Research Council. The council has the misfortune researched. The conclusion is hard: according to the council, it is difficult for pedestrians and cyclists to orientate themselves on the bridge. Also finds the Research Council that the municipality should have done more to ensure that the bridge operator was able to perform his job safely and correctly.

The bridge operator is suspected of manslaughter, know Wesley. “That does not look good or the bridge it was free before he opened it. Incidentally, not because there was to be a ship, but due to a maintenance job.”

Underline Wesley
is happy with the conclusion, even though you can hardly speak for joy. He was also extensive research and came to the conclusion that the difference between the movable and fixed part of the bridge is not clear. He himself made lines.

Soon the trial begins. Probably the relatives receive compensation. “You have to think of a few thousand euros. It’s money, but our mother we do not get back to them.”

plans
And that loss chopped it . “My father is still in bad shape. He works back a bit, but there are days when it can not.” Wesley continues: “My parents had so many plans My mother worked at the Praxis, she wanted to make so many beautiful trips with my father…”

Wesley continues to solidify the safety of bridges “It can not be that my mother is deceased and that it has been for nothing. In Zaanstad are 14 bridges which are operated by two men. There are weekly 500 incidents. Not as dramatic as my mother happened, but all sorts of little things . “

Google beats Facebook with AI – Telegraaf.nl

Just a few hours after Facebook announced that it is an artificial intelligence ( AI) was developed almost good enough to beat the best players of the game of go, Google announced that it had reached that goal. The internet giant has said that his go-program can beat the European champion

.

In the five matches against champion Fan Hui have been played, the Google program won all five times. AI called AlphaGo and was developed by AI include expert Demis Hassibis, whose company Deep Mind was acquired by Google in 2014.

AlphaGo uses two networks. One of them tries to predict the next moves of the opponent, while the other is trying to calculate the results of different moves. These are combined to calculate together and look forward to future continue.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg made a few hours before the announcement clearly that his company was also close to a successful go-AI. However, Google was still closer

In March AlphaGo playing against the world champion

DNA of seagrass can only come from agriculture – BNR

In Groningen was first mapped the DNA of seagrass. Seagrass is a strange plant. For example one of the very few species that the country has gone back to sea. And that makes it interesting for agriculture, which in the coming decades to many places in the world faced with increasingly salty water

First we just eliminate the greatest confusion out of the way:. Eelgrass is no grass. It grows in the sea – all under water. “From a quarter million species of plants with flowers, there are only sixty gone back to sea,” says Jeanine Olsen, of the University of Groningen

Seagrass is a plant with flowers -. That’s from the past, from the time that seagrass still lived on the land. This reflects how drastic it is for such a plant for the country to go to sea – because how it underwater with the birds and the bees, if there are no bees? “Nevertheless reproduction fully submerged position.”

And that means that seaweed has developed a very different form pollen – which is carried in long strings through the water. “It looks like spaghetti. Not exactly beautiful to see.”

Olsen published Thursday in the science journal Nature an article about her DNA analysis to seagrass. And that tells a lot about how the plant has adapted, because all plants are descended from the algae and come from the sea. Who subsequently became land plants, but that whole weird seagrass retreated. “Most other plants can not handle that transition.”

Because the pick plants actually breathe underwater? The plants remain -so they pull CO2 from the air and make it under the influence of sunlight on oxygen. But under water is no air to get out of CO2. “What happens,” says Olsen, “is that carbon dioxide water takes on a whole complex composition, but the plant has a biological mechanism to take it anyway.”

And where land plants eg small opening gently into the leaves have, so that they can allow air through to the inside – seagrass has all the genes that they have been before, be lost. “They are now forever in the sea.”

As Olsen said, seagrass which has jumped from the land into the sea to know, but otherwise manage virtually any plant it. Whereas it would be useful if we food crops that could move a little way, because sea levels are rising, and in many places the water changes from fresh to brackish. “The question then becomes: can we rice, and tomatoes also grow in salty water?”

Google Chrome for iOS thanks WKWebView much faster, less crash – iculture

>

At Google today was probably from the flag. The crash problems of Safari decided a lot of people (temporarily) to switch to the Chrome brwoser. Meanwhile, the problems have been solved with Safari, but it still pays to try Chrome. Namely the mobile browser has implemented a technical improvement, making it has become just as fast as Safari.

Google Chrome for iOS is now using WKWebView, The latest browser engine that Apple iOS since 8 makes available. Therefore, the browser is not only faster, but also crashes less often: the number of crashes decreased by 70 percent. Furthermore, the execution of JavaScript code faster, which improves the overall performance of the mobile web browser.

In a blog post Google puts out what else is changed. There are also some redesigned icons.

The use of WKWebView, Google Chrome is speed equal terms with the iOS version of Safari. Previously, developers had to use UIWebView, slower engine.

But that’s not the only thing Google has updated Google Chrome. Chrome now has Spotlight integration, so you can search from the search screen of iOS to your Chrome bookmarks. So open simplifies finding your favorite web pages you’ve stored there. Finally, the icons on the New Tab updated

Samsung is working on telephone subscription with the latest smartphone annually – GSM Helpdesk Netherlands

Apple introduced last September in the United States, its so-called “iPhone Upgrade Program. Through the iPhone Upgrade Program allows Apple fans in the United States to conclude a kind of device subscription “, which she always with the latest iPhone can run around. Once a newer model comes out, users can return their old iPhone and exchange it for the new one. Users are never themselves physically own the iPhone, but pay for using a sort of “lease”.

Hiring instead of selling

Samsung is working according to Korean sources in a similar program, which Samsung wants to go its latest Galaxy S smartphones ‘rent’. Samsung users can also use the program through the latest Galaxy S smartphones and annually features the successor. Again, users have to pay a monthly ‘phone subscription.

Profitable

For manufacturers is offering a subscription on the latest handsets very lucrative. Customers who use the program to pay in one year, an important part of the standalone purchase price of the device as ‘rent’. After a year, at the appearance of a new model, customers can return the device partially paid off in exchange for the latest model. The old unit is overhauled in many cases (refurbished) and re-marketed.

Because the unit rental is offered directly by the manufacturer and therefore no distributors or retail channels to benefit from the margin, this new way of “selling” smartphones very profitable for manufacturers.

Available from March

It seems that Samsung ‘her’ Galaxy Upgrade Program from March wants to offer. This is a logical moment because in March the Samsung Galaxy S7 is also expected in stores. Samsung does this device present reportedly end of February at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

Announcement simultaneously with introduction Galaxy S7

For the time being it seems that the handset upgrade program from Samsung in principle only in Samsung’s home country South Korea and the United States will become available. Or Samsung’s program elsewhere would like to make in the world is not yet known at this time, but will possibly already become clear during the presentation of the Samsung Galaxy S7. The introduction of the Samsung Galaxy S7 is expected on Sunday evening February 21 in Barcelona.
