PHOTOS: Frogs Fall of Spacecraft

Frog seen hovering near the spaceship United States Space Agency (NASA) has just been launched to the Moon. Conditions that gave rise to the assumption that NASA will send frogs into space.The Christian Science Monitor launched, an unknown frog species was caught on camera shortly after NASA spacecraft named LADEE takeoff at Pad 0B at Wallops Island, Virginia, U.S.."We do not know from where the frogs," said a NASA official, responding to a growing issue that NASA is planning to send a frog to the Moon.NASA said that the frogs were likely in a pool of water around the foundation (launchpad) when the aircraft was launched. The pool was deliberately made to avoid damage to NASA Pad due to heat from the rocket blast.NASA confirmed, the frog in the photo was not a joke and it is true. Unfortunately, the space agency declined to comment on plans to send a frog in mission LADEE launch spacecraft to the moon, which cost U.S. $ 263 million, equivalent to Rp2, 9 trillion.In a statement, NASA confirmed that the frogs actually being in one of the picture frames in the camera remotely while documenting LADEE space shuttle launch."Currently we do not know the exact condition of the frog," NASA said in a statement.Occurrence of events in the frog spacecraft was not the first time that happened. Four years ago, a bat was burnt alive in the space shuttle Discovery.Based on identification, bat was sleeping in the aircraft's fuel tanks before takeoff.

Earth Life Originated from Comet Collision?

The team of researchers from the University of Kent, UK, found that comet collisions with planets and moons in the past produced mahadahsyat explosion, which creates the essential ingredients for the elements of life. Then, the material was spread throughout the solar system.According to Mark Price, space researcher at the University of Kent, the implication is the importance of the collision-producing precursor compounds that participate in the chemical reaction that produces another compound-which supports life and spread it somewhere."During this time, the comet is known to have organic compounds. And scientists have long said that the comet that helped bring the ingredients to form the beginning of life on Earth," said Price, reported by Fox News, Wednesday, September 18, 2013.This finding, Price continued, based on the results of detection of ammonia in Comet Halley compounds that contain amino acid precursor protein and basic components.Similar amino compounds has also been found in samples of comet 81P/Wild-2 collected by NASA's Stardust spacecraft."The impact of comet collisions in the entire solar system with many craters on the planet's surface. Comet collision was fast and produces very high temperatures. Was that cause chemical changes," said Price.Then, a team of researchers conducted a test firing steel projectiles that are mixed by existing materials dikomet with a speed of 16,000 miles per hour into a container containing a mixture of carbon dioxide, ammonia, and methanol, the temperature of minus 80 degrees Celsius."As a result, we created a new compound in the form of some types of amino acid and L-alanine, an important component of proteins that exist on Earth," said Price."Indeed, the results have not created life, but it was close. Thing we want to prove it is a process of creation of new molecules at the birth of the solar system a comet collision," added Price.

Buy Bump Google, Advanced File Sharing Applications

In the era of data needed file management make it easier for the user . Well , the world of technology giant Google is ready to provide service digital life easier , especially for mobile users .The reason , reported by the Wall Street Journal , today , Google re- acquired the company. This time the target is the enterprise smart phone applications Mountain View , Bump , known as file sharing applications sophisticated.If you are using an iPhone , this app may already be familiar . Bump app lets users transfer files antarponsel quite simply pressing the two phones simultaneously .Bump services became popular in the app store . And the idea of ​​transferring files antarponsel in close quarters has been the focus of the smartphone giants .Actually , Android also allows bulit -in transfer local files , but unfortunately Android requires a technology known as near - field communication ( NFC ) , short range communication between devices . Unfortunately, not all Android phones are equipped with this technology .This acquisition decisions in a strategic move to compete with Google's competitors in the mobile universe . Apple is rumored to soon release its own file sharing independently with AirDrop name . Apple 's version of the file sharing was mentioned more sophisticated than Bump .AirDrop can send files wirelessly without the need to physically touch or touch the phone . Requirement is the same with Android , the two devices using NFC platform for the exchange of the file.Other competitors , Samsung also released a similar app Bump known as S Beam , allowing file transfer antarponsel Samsung particular type.Unfortunately , both Google and Bump did not give details of the acquisition terms . Bump CEO David Lieb said still need to coordinate with Google. Not yet known how the value of the acquisition ." Bump team has demonstrated a strong ability to develop products that are preferred user . Bump And we thought would be a great fit at Google , " Google spokesman explained .In addition to file sharing application , Bump Flock also has applications , ie applications that automatically collects some group photos into a single form of photo albums . Mentioned two applications made ​​by Bump it will be bought by Google

Newspaper reports: Russian arms supplies to Syria delay




Moscow (AFP) - Russia put off some supply fighter jets and missile defense systems S-300 to Syria because Damascus failed to pay them, the newspaper Kommersant said on Saturday.  A total of 12 jets MiG-29M/M2 that Russia agreed to sell to Syria will not be awarded before the year 2016 to 2017, the daily said quoting unnamed sources in the company of Russia's state arms export monopoly Rosoboronexport.  According to RIA Novosti news agency, although the deal was approved in 2007, shipments delayed by technical reasons and then postponed because Syria has only paid to Moscow 30 percent of what is owed ​​to the jets, Kommersant said.  Earlier media reports said six of the 12 MiG expected to be delivered by the end of this year.  An agreement in 2010 to supply Damascus with missile defense systems S-300 was also stuck because because Syria has so far failed to provide a down payment, the report said.  "Supply S-300 out of the problem until we see real money," the newspaper said citing an unnamed official in the military-industrial complex of Russia's cooperation.  S-300 was initially expected to be delivered in July 2014, but delivery will be delayed until 2015 or 2016 unless the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad paid immediately, the report said.
