How A Light Bulb Works and Other Interesting Tidbits

In order to understand how a light bulb works you must first understand certain terms. Voltage, watt and amperage are all very important terms related to electricity and the light bulb. When you flip a switch, a current of electricity passes through a bulb producing light.

The Fertilization Process and Implications of Test Tube Babies

The results are babies known as test-tube babies which are technically conceived outside the womb.

Earthquake and Disaster Delays in Scientific Innovation

In our present period we are continually reminded that we live on the surface of the planet and with that great honor comes issues of Mother Nature we must deal with. It is a fair trade off, as you get sunshine, warmth and heat from the sun; water, fish and surfing opportunities from the ocean and the stars, moon and cosmos to propel thought, enlightenment and understanding of who we are and perhaps some insight into why we are here.

Using Mosquito MEMS to Collect DNA Samples

Soon scientists will have scaled down robotic insects. This is a good thing and most of this technology is being funded for Department of Defense uses as they will have a killer application there indeed.

Cord Blood and Its Uses

What is Cord Blood and why is it collected and stored for later use of treating various diseases and blood related illness?

Acoustic Transducers and Material Memory in Pipelines to Create Flow Up Hill

For the better part of human history mechanical pumps and suction techniques have been used to bring water uphill. By using dynamic pressure, downhill kinetic energy, pumps, suction and heating up the fluid mankind has been busy getting those fluids to market or desired areas. We deliver oil and natural gas in pipelines, water in canals and pipes and a variety of fluids in this fashion.

Building an Ice House on Mars

There is ice at the Martian Poles, one of the poles has water ice in abundance. Such an ice over region could easily be converted into a habitat for a Martian Colony of human explorers. Taking humans to Mars is not such an easy task, keeping them alive once there even harder, bringing them back not easy at all. The polar water ice cap may hold the key to building a successful colony on Mars.

How Did DNA Testing Children Begin?

The story behind the first maternity and paternity tests.

Can We Build a National Defense Net to Stop Swarms of MAVs?

Is it possible to build a defense shield to stop micro-air vehicles in swarms from flying into Blue Force positions or across our borders? Having a tracking system to protect against small UAVs, MAVs or even Nano Smart Dust or airborne vehicles would be a worthwhile pursuit wouldn’t it?
