Synthetic Life Could Aid Space Exploration Moffett Field CA (SPX) Sep 24, 2010 When packing for a manned mission to Mars or the Moon, the best thing to bring may not be food or fuel, but specially designed organisms that can create those things for you. Scientists are researching the possibility of engineering synthetic organisms that could use the resources available in the solar system to create the supplies astronauts would need to survive on another planet. "Personally I'm interested in space settlement," said John Cumbers, a graduate student at NASA's Ames Researc ... read more |

Optical Chip Enables New Approach To Quantum Computing Bristol, UK (SPX) Sep 23, 2010 An international research group led by scientists from the University of Bristol has developed a new approach to quantum computing that could soon be used to perform complex calculations that cannot be done by today's computers. Scientists from Bristol's Centre for Quantum Photonics have developed a silicon chip that could be used to perform complex calculations and simulations using quantum particles in the near future. The researchers believe that their device represents a new route to a q ... read more |
