The DNA data storage

      It will make you reconsider the digital                                         future        If you have data to archive, there are many current options available: HDDs, SSDs, CDs and DVDs to name a few. In the future, though, data storage may look considerably different, and instead involve the careful use of encoded DNA. Though the idea to use DNA for data storage isn’t new, the technology is still in its infancy. A new study sheds light on what is currently possible, and details a couple of astounding breakthroughs, not the least of which is encoding a movie in DNA. The latest DNA data storage achievements were made in part with the gene-editing technology CRISPR — in this case, the researchers used CRISPR-Cas microbial immune system. According to the study, which was recently published in Nature, ‘When harnessed, [CRISPR-Cas] has the potential to write arbitrary information into the genome.’ This is done by adding nucleotides to a living cell over time. The study e

Asteroid will DEFINITELY hit Earth

     It could wipe out London, expert warns AN asteroid impact on Earth is “100 per cent” going to happen and experts are currently unsure they have the ability to protect us. As every day passes, the likelihood that an asteroid strikes Earth increases, according to experts. Professor Alan Fitzsimmons, from Queen’s University Belfast’s Astrophysics Research Centre, says one will “100 per cent” strike Earth again, and London could be completely wiped out. The last major incident occurred in 2013 when a 20 metre meteor exploded over Chelyabinsk, Russia, which smashed windows and caused injuries to more than 1,000 people. Prior to that, in 1908, a small asteroid up to 190 metres in size exploded over Siberia’s Tunguska which ruined woodlands across 800 miles.         Amazing facts about Asteroids      The first asteroid was Ceres, discovered by  "Giuseppe Piazzi"  in 1801. There are currently over 600,000 known asteroids in our solar system. Most as

The FICTION converted into REALITY

     Object teleported from Earth to Orbit for                                 the first time The object is a photon, which travelled from Gobi desert to a satellite called ‘Micius’ orbiting 500 kilometres in total. Researchers from China have successfully teleported an object from Earth to the Orbit. The object  is a photon, which travelled from Gobi desert to a satellite called ‘Micius’ orbiting five hundred kilometres in total. This is believed to be an important step towards establishing a global-scale quantum internet.
