“Space Invaders for the Nano Every using a 2.7” OLED Display There are a few Space Invader games available for Arduino. I got motivated to try and improve on the current ones. I wanted to use a larger screen …

NASA, ESA Reveal Tale of Death, Dust in Orion Constellation

“In a tale of cosmic proportions, the region is being transformed by the massive stars that live and die within it. A new image combining previously released data from three telescopes shows a region that includes the Orion Nebula, named …

NASA’s Europa Clipper Gets Its Wheels for Traveling in Deep Space

“The enormous spacecraft that will head to Jupiter’s moon Europa uses four large reaction wheels to help keep it oriented. Just as NASA’s Mars rovers rely on robust wheels to roam the Red Planet and conduct science, some …

New collaboration to probe physical reality’s quantum ‘glue’

“An ambitious new collaboration promises to expand our understanding of what some physicists have called the “glue” that holds the universe together — the strong nuclear force. “One of the fundamental forces of nature is the strong nuclear force,” said Igor …

New quantum tool developed in groundbreaking experimental achievement

“For the first time in experimental history, researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) have created a device that generates twisted neutrons with well-defined orbital angular momentum. Previously considered an impossibility, this groundbreaking scientific accomplishment provides a brand new …

Nexperia releases ultrafast 650 V Recovery Rectifiers for automotive and industrial applications

“Nexperia, the expert in essential semiconductors, today announced the expansion of its portfolio of Clip-bonded FlatPower (CFP) packaged diodes for industrial and automotive applications. The latest additions include four 650 V, 1 A parts available in CFP3 and CFP5 packages …

Nixie Display Module With SPI Interface

“Overview: So there are plenty of display modules available to work with an SPI bus, mostly based around LED or LCD technology. But I wanted to re-use some old Nixie teck. This Instructable is what I came up with. The …

Pushing the Boundaries of Fluid Equations

“The motion of fluids in nature, including the flow of water in our oceans, the formation of tornadoes in our atmosphere, and the flux of air surrounding airplanes, have long been described and simulated by what are known as the …

Quantum algorithms save time in the calculation of electron dynamics

“Quantum computers promise significantly shorter computing times for complex problems. But there are still only a few quantum computers worldwide with a limited number of so-called qubits. However, quantum computer algorithms can already run on conventional servers that simulate a …

Reflecting on a shift in “rainbow” sensors

“Nanostructured surfaces enable lab-on-a-chip lung cancer diagnosis. A miniaturized plasmonic spectrometer that creates a rainbow pattern that shifts in the presence of a chemical or biological sample has been developed. Crucially, these spectral shifts can be observed in a standard …
