Found coin alexander great at syria




More than 250 silver coin chips in time Alexander the great found at north Syria. that coin is valuable archaeology invention at era Hellenic.

Youssef kanjo, archaeological digging head at ancient city Aleppo says that coins found in two last week at north Syria when does one of the local man dig fondest at home the new.

Men then extradite coin that found in special box to in charge authority.

the date stated on coin refer to period Hellenic with distance between century up-four to first after king Macedonia also warrior Alexander the great distribute Greek culture easterly middle and exceed power area in conquered by him.

Kanjo add that box contain two coin groups, first 137 piece coins four or tetra dachma 115 piece coin chips one drachma.

One of [the] coin side tetra drachmas describe Alexander the great, temporary another side Zeus Greek nation god picture is sitting at throne with a eagle is perching at the arm.

Several also display King Alexander at Greek, temporary another says that Alexander use the father name that is King Philip.

After conquest Alexander great, many router kingdoms in the east middle adopted drachma as their official currency.

NASA announced the most dramatic pictures Pluto


U.S. space agency NASA announced a photo from the Hubble Space Telescope captured the early 2000s. The picture was called the most detailed images and dramatic about dwarf planet.

"Photo Hubble confirms that Pluto is a dynamic world and experiencing dramatic atmospheric changes are not just a ball of ice and rock," NASA said.

But the latest glamorous image that is not enough to re-enter Pluto as a planet.

The picture was taken when Pluto to a new phase of the 248-year orbit around the sun. NASA says Pluto is not like Earth, where the planet alone through the season.

Pluto is season because of asymmetric elliptical orbit. Spring transition to summer is very fast in the northern hemisphere, because Pluto moves along its orbit more quickly when closer to the sun.

Surface looks reddish, yellowish, and grayish in place, with a mysterious light that is confusing the scientists.

Some colors are revealed in the new photographs of Pluto is estimated to result from ultraviolet radiation from the sun interacts with methane in the atmosphere is weak dwarf planet.

Bright spot seen near the equator have been found in other observations because carbon monoxide is very rich.

Pluto loses status as a planet in our solar system in 2006 when a group of international scientists decided that Pluto is too small and too remote to be considered as a member of the solar system.

Charge phone with pants of jeans


The team from Stanford University developed a new way to recharge the phone battery, by electricity from the clothes you wear.

With this invention, when mobile users travel, they do not need the hassle to find outlets to recharge the phone battery. Simply connect the cable from a pair of jeans or a shirt that used to the phone, the phone battery was immediately filled with an electrical current. But instead, the night before traveling users must fill out the electricity supply to the clothing to the full.

Yi Cui and his team worked hard to change and polyester fabrics used to be conducting textile material serves as energy charger for charging the phone battery.

These findings represent a new type of material developments with a variety of new functionality such as flexibility, elasticity, and so forth. Materials can be used for various applications and designs previously not possible with traditional technologies," said Yi Cui, as quoted by TG Daily.
Clothes made from a special sports, portable energy storage, as well as health monitoring systems that are planted, are examples of new applications developed intensively," he added.

In these findings, Yi Cui use the 'ink' made from a single carbon nanotube. The ink is then applied to cotton and polyester fibers for clothing, thus turning it into a magic ingredient that can save electricity.

Yi Cui claims, fiber material has a flexibility and elasticity such as cotton and polyester materials used. This material was the same as clothing material generally can be washed and dried many times.

NASA will select Venus, asteroids or the moon


Institutions outside the United States Space NASA will select three projects space Venus, asteroids and the moon to travel to the next solar system. Decisions will be taken in mid 2011 and will be rolled at least December 30, 2018. This project will cost at least U.S. $ 650 million. This proposal will explore Venus surface to measure the atmosphere and the composition of mineral-forming elements in order to understand why Venus is different from the earth.

Spacecraft to Venus is called Geochemical Surface and Atmosphere Explorer or SAGE. While the proposal would send the asteroid spacecraft to the asteroid to measure and collect more than 2 ounces of material to help researchers better understand our solar system. Spacecraft that is used is called the Origins Spectral Interpretation regolith Security Identification Resource Explorer spacecraft, or abbreviated as Osiris-Rex.

Project month will send aircraft will land near the south pole of the moon. And will take 2 pounds of materials scientists is expected to provide a deeper history of the system correlation moon and the earth. One of the three proposals selected from the eight proposals that came in at the beginning, and will be the third mission of NASA’s series of new exploration. The first mission, New Horizons was launched in 2006 and will reach the Pluto system-Charon in 2015. The second mission, Juno was launched in August 2011 and will orbit Jupiter.

Stress lye human ancestors


Ontario researchers investigate cortical specimens of ancient human hair in Peru. Researchers found that stress has been around since ancient times. As the science of psychology has not given a name until the year 1930, the University of Western Ontario researchers have stressed prove plagued mankind for hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years ago. 
The study was first published in the Journal of Archaeological Science, detecting stress hormones in human hair cortical Peru, who lived between the years 550-1532. When individuals are stressed, cortical is released in almost every part of the body including blood, saliva, urine and hair. Chairman of Study Web Emily says that this discovery is important because it gives us some clues to better understand how ancient communities and callous behavior during their life on earth and more important to know the facts about stress and its effects today.     
     
By studying are the Archaeological remains of human life such as the traditional survey, Excavation to find specimens of ancient human hair. So we get a picture of life at the moment and respond to human ancestors lived experiences such as illness and disaster, explained Webb. Cortical is the level of analysis of ancient human hair to give instructions to Investigators to assess the experience of stress in the lives of individuals in a given period. In this case researchers took samples of 10 individuals from five different Archaeological sites in Peru.

Space station crew down in Kazakhstan




The three astronauts landed safely in the vast grasslands of northern Kazakhstan frozen in after six months on the orbiting International Space Station. De Winne waved his hand as he helped out of the TMA-15 capsule, charred and takes more than three hours to descend from the space station orbiting about 400 miles above Earth.
"Soyuz commander has just reported that the crews are in good condition," said an official at the Observer Mission in Korolyov, outside Moscow, Russia. The air filled with ice means support team have to travel overland and not by helicopter to remote areas where medical personnel checked that all three crew members.
The crew will be flying back to the Russian space training center in Star City, outside Moscow. They do training on how to handle the force of gravity after six months in the space station, NASA said. American astronaut Jeff Williams and Russian Maxim Suraev will remain at the space station until the arrival of three new crew, Russian, Oleg Kotov astronaut Timothy Creamer of the U.S. space agency (Nasa) and Soichi Noguchi of Japan. They are expected to leave the Earth with the spacecraft Soyuz TMA-17 on December 21.

Found, fingers and teeth Galileo


Two fingers and teeth Galileo Galilei who was taken from the body in the basilica of Florence in the 18th century and missing have been found again, an Italian museum director said. Three fingers, a spine and teeth removed from the body by admirers’ astronomers in 1737, 95 years after his death. At that time the body was moved from the storage to the tomb, turned to Michelangelo in the Basilica of Santa Croce in Florence.

One of the fingers is now part of the collection of the History of Science Museum, in Florence. The spine has been stored at the University of Padua, where Galileo taught for many years. But the teeth and two fingers of his right hand a scientist - the thumb and middle finger - the one saved by an admirer of the Marquis left Italy for generations in the same family, said Paolo Galluzzi, director of the museum. "But as time passes, the more offspring do not know what is actually in the container," and the family sold it, Galluzzi said.

In 1905, all traces of relics have disappeared, and prominent scholars hypothesize that a single specimen is definitely missing, the museum said in a statement. Container where the finger are had recently appeared at auction and was bought by a private collector, who attracted by the content but not sure is the Relic of Galileo. Finally, the buyer contacted Galluzzi Florence and other cultural experts, who use a detailed historical documents, as well as documentation from families that have had it for so long, to conclude that the fingers and teeth are Galileo, said museum director. Relics are enclosed in a vase 18th century, and the top of a wooden statue of Galileo, the museum said.

Galileo, who died in 1642, condemned by the Vatican for saying the earth revolved around the sun. Church teaching at the time argued that the earth was the center of the universe. In the early 1990s, Pope John Paul II rehabilitates and declares the church was wrong.

The asteroid almost hit the earth


Not much attention, the earth was almost hit by an asteroid 6 November last. Astronomers know the arrival of an asteroid's speed at 8700 miles remaining time to live 15 hours.
Asteroid orbital trajectory that was 30 times closer than the moon, a distance of 250,000 miles.
Although the track asteroid 9000 miles away from earth, but its size is only 23 feet in diameter and will not make a dent in the ground.
Destruction in Tunguska, Siberia in 1908 that caused the meteorite impact, creating the effect was so strong that the explosion flattened 1200 square miles of forest.
Sized objects are similar to the Earth passes close to two times a year and crashed into the planet about once every five years.
Astronomers believe the object, called 2009 VA, burned down completely when entering the earth's atmosphere, and causing a fireball in the sky and caused great damage on the surface.
The new asteroid discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on November 6, 2009. Later is identified by the Minor Planet Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts as the object closest to the earth.
Near Earth Object Program NASA plot the trajectory of the object's orbit and are confident that will not hit, although flying very close to the earth.
It is the third closest object hit the earth and is not listed on the asteroid catalog. NASA NEO Program aims to detect and track at least 90 percent of the 1000 asteroids. A comet is approaching Earth with a diameter of 0.6 miles will happen in the year 2020.
NASA has been monitoring an asteroid 100 feet in diameter, the whirring 45,000 miles above the earth, is in early March this year. Similar-sized object that hit in Tunguska.

Internet reformer wins nobel physical

A man in China-born Briton who graduated from Woolwich Polytechnic in east London, and became director of research at a phone company in Essex has won the Nobel Prize for physics in this category.
Charles Kuen Kao won half of the prestigious award for research that allows the information sent in a beam of light along glass fibers with a distance of more than 100 km. revolutionized the study of modern communications.

Kao share prize with two Americans, George Smith and Willard Boyle at Bell Labs, New Jersey who developed a charged-coupled device (CCD), or what is known as a kind of miniature digital cameras in devices such as mobile phones and spaceships.

Award was announced at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Nobel Prize awarded to Kao for the "innovative achievement on the transmission of light in fiber optic cable for communication". While Smith and Boyle's "for the discovery of a series of semiconductor imaging - CCD sensor.

Boyle spoke over the phone at a press conference at the Karolinska Institute. Nobel jury said that the study "helps form the basics of the current public networks. They have created a lot of practical innovation to everyday life and provide new tools for scientific exploration".

Optical fiber forms the circulatory system of community-based communications. Glass fiber allows us to communicate globally, including broadband Internet. The light flows in a thin thread of glass with almost all telephone and data traffic. Like text, music, pictures and video. All that can be transferred around the world in seconds.

Moon of Jupiter disappeared

Unusual incident happened on the night of 2 September. Fourth largest moon of Jupiter planets suddenly disappeared.

The position of Jupiter is the brightest shining star in the making it very easy for anyone to see.

Anyone who is directs a small telescope to see Jupiter's fourth moon, also known as Satellite Galiean. Usually at least two or three, often four looks like a small star-like light.

Very rarely is only one month and more rarely seen if not visible at all. Note the first observation of Jupiter without satellites condition it was in 1681.

On this, in the year 1844 in a book entitled "A Cycle of Celestial Objects", William Henry Smyth commented that conjunctions took more than 3000 million years to happen again.

Smyth estimate is excessive. Although the incident "without months of" very rare, but in fact every century there are a dozen more events like this.

Gian Vecenzo "Enzo" Mora of Sequals Italy was the first to make detailed calculations without the moon of Jupiter in 1909. Study of Mora is very thorough and no doubt require a lot of time and all that without the help of modern computers.

Modern research using computer technology, has demonstrated that the count is very accurate mathematical Mora. That are although he was wrong because in 1859, 1898 and 1962 without a moon of Jupiter, too.

Strange rays in space

Beautiful impressions appeared in the sky on Wednesday (9 / 9) last night and looks like a mysterious event. But the sparkling light in the sky turned out to be urine water.

Some people who see the beautiful phenomenon in astronauts during space shuttle Discovery remove "dirt" in the sky.

Disposal is scheduled by the pilot Kevin Ford who took urine and liquid waste as one form of preparation for landing on Thursday. But because of the weather, the landing failed and the astronauts planned to land in Florida on Friday at 17:48 local time, in rainy weather conditions that accompanied the wind.
Wednesday the light show made up of about 68kg of water was thrown at the same time, said NASA spokeswoman Kylie Clem. Discovery has left the international space station a few days before and during the 10 days there can not dispose of waste.
"That is a huge amount because it does not do waste water disposal when docked to the station," Clem said via email. "It is a new rule applied in the last two flights to prevent contamination of the Kibo module."

Kibo module is a new research lab in Japan built space station that includes the external platform to expose science to the space environment. Disposal of water from a docked aircraft could potentially interfere with experiments.
In general, Clem said seeing the water in outer space has become public. Waste water usually freezes during the disposal and into the clouds into small ice pellets. Then when exposed to sunlight, the ice is crushed into water vapor and spread in space.

A number of people in North America seem to see Wednesday's disposal, and some are sending pictures to SpaceWeather.com.
One of them was Abe Megahed is a picture at 21:40 hours and taken from Madisson Wisconsin. "I just watched the space shuttle and the station flew past and was surprised to see the plane make a big arch that prides. Is it? Something is from the vents? OMS who burning? Rocket RCS? A record is for the largest discharge of urine?" He wrote.
