WASHINGTON DC - NASA has awarded the Texas-based company ICON $57.2 million for its Project Olympus, which is working to develop technology that will allow humanity to build outposts on the moon and Mars using locally available dirt and rock. "To change the space exploration paradigm from 'there and back again' to 'there to stay,'
ORLANDO, Fla. - As a direct result of social media and the prevalence of cellphone cameras, we’re seeing more and more videos of supposed UFOs. Recently, a woman in the Orlando, Florida area captured photos and videos of a massive craft hovering in plain sight. However, no one else seemed to notice. If they noticed,
DETROIT - A team of scientists from Hudson Carbon, a research center in upstate New York that studies carbon storage, say cannabis could be the missing player in humanity’s fight against climate change. How? Hemp absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere more than twice as effectively as trees. Although the U.S. only accounts for about
NEW YORK - Renewables are on track to generate more power than coal in the United States this year. But the question is whether they can grow fast enough to meet the country’s climate goals.

SILVER PEAK, Nevada - Salty water gurgles quietly through a pipe across a dry lakebed and into a Caribbean-blue pond. It's carrying an element that is crucial to the electric car revolution and, suddenly, one of the world's hottest commodities: lithium. Silver Peak, halfway between Reno and Las Vegas, may not resemble most people's mental
BOSTON - A discovery by MIT researchers could finally unlock the door to the design of a new kind of rechargeable lithium battery that is more lightweight, compact, and safe than current versions, and that has been pursued by labs around the world for years. The key to this potential leap in battery technology is
Vehicle registration plates can be scanned in real-time using Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR). This is also known as License Plate Recognition (LPR), which employs sophisticated image processing and optical character recognition on video streams/images to provide vehicle location data. What is license plate recognition? So, what is licence plate recognition exactly? License plate recognition
Giants of the technology world are constantly fighting for the title of the best company. Undoubtedly, this is good for users, as manufacturers constantly delight us with innovative products. Today we will compare the main characteristics of LG TV and Samsung TV, both are smart TVs, and see who still deserves more attention. Users are
