Learn New Skills From Home Learning a new skill from the comfort of your own home (home study, distance learning), attracts 100,000’s of learners each year and is rapidly growing periodically worldwide. Home learning’s growth has become a real competitor against traditional mainstream (college, night school, learning etc) study methods. Home studies success is mainly ecdl advanced due to its better flexibility and cost effectiveness when compared to mainstream learning

Home Computers Around the World Unite to Map the Milky Way Enthusiastic and inquisitive volunteers from Africa to Australia are donating the computing power of everything from decade-old desktops to sleek new netbooks to help computer scientists and astronomers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute map the shape of our Milky Way galaxy. Now, just this month, the collected computing power of these humble home computers has surpassed one petaflop, a computing speed that surpasses the world’s second fastest supercomputer.The project, MilkyWay@Home, uses the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC) platform, which is widely known for the SETI@home project used to search for signs of extraterrestrial life

If Google Wave Is The Future, Google Buzz Is The Present Google has a problem. Despite having their hands in just about everything online, they’ve never been able to tackle what is a key part of the fabric of the web: social

At the remote Mars Desert Research Station in Utah, astronauts wearing artificial-intelligence enhanced spacesuits with digital eyes that can see in the infrared what human eyes are unable to see developed by Patrick McGuire (a University of Chicago geoscientist who’s developed algorithms that can recognize signs of life in a barren landscape) are testing future planetary rover missions that will travel long distances from their safe landing site to the exploration targets. The central nervous system of McGuire’s platform is a Hopfield neural network, a type of artificial intelligence that compares incoming data against patterns it’s seen before, filtering out those details that qualify as new or unusual

A monster black hole 100 million times the mass of the Sun is  feeding off gas, dust and  a ring of stars at the centre of Galaxy NGC-1097 50 million light-years away. The star-ringed black hole forms the eye of the galaxy which was photographed by the US space agency’s Spitzer Space Telescope in California. The odd spiral galaxy extends long arms of red stars into space. But Nasa said the black hole at the centre of the galaxy in which Earth is situated is tame by comparison to NGC-1097, with the mass of just a few million suns.

Chinese scientists have shifted its focus from mapping the moon to completing the world's first land cover map of the Antarctica at the end of this year. The result will be the most accurate map of the continent ever published. Using the application of high resolution remote sensing technology, the map will be the first ever to show the distribution of key features on the continent, including sea ice, snow, blue ice, rocks, soil marshes, lakes and ice crevasse.

It came suddenly from the distant reaches of the Constellation Sagittarius, some 50,000 light years away. For a brief instant, a couple of tenths of a second, on December 27, 2004 an invisible burst of energy the equivalent of half a million years of sunlight shone on Earth

Icefish well adapted to life in cold water with anti-freeze, but no red blood cells in their blood (image below) thrive in the seas of Antarctica’s continental shelf along with sea pigs, giant sea spiders, octopus, rare rays and basket stars are revealed in a series of new photographs released this week.

The last unmapped white space of the map of the planet is Antarctica’s Gamburtsev mountains, a subglacial mountain range discovered by the 3rd Soviet Antarctic Expedition in 1958 and is named for Soviet geophysicist Grigoriy A.
