Last night's (May 24) finale of The Flash season 3 threw up a lot of mixed emotions. It started in a happy note as we learn Iris didn't really die, but the funny H.R. with the help of the shape-shifting tech he built earlier in the season swapped places with her and paid the ultimate price.
I will surely miss the Earth 19's H.R. Wells as he supplied comic relief throughout the season, but Iris had to live as that seem to be the point of the entire season. Most of the Flash season 3 centered around how to save...
When one of the most respected business moguls, Donald Trump was making his bid for the white house, he baffled many by stating that he believed climate change was a hoax. Very few could understand how he had come to that conclusion, especially because the effects of negative human interaction with the environment are so obvious.
In places like China, the smoke that is emitted by vehicles and industries is so heavy that the smog creates traffic snarl-ups, it is snowing in the Sahara, the North Pole seems to be thawing over, and the list is endless. Well, it is...
There was some bit of bad news for internet accessibility in Africa Yesterday (Thursday, September 1, 2016) as the rocket that was supposed to launch a Facebook Internet Satellite that was targeted at delivering affordable high speed internet to users in Africa and other regions exploded at the NASA launch site in Florida taking the payload with it.
The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was billed to launch the Facebook Internet Satellite to space on Saturday, September 3, 2016, but went up in flames during a routine test at its Cape Canaveral launch pad on Thursday morning.
The CEO of SpaceX Elon...
A large Asteroid called 2013 TV135 with an estimated size of about 400 metres and force equivalent to 2500 nuclear bombs could hit the earth on August 2032 according to Ukrainian astronomers at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in the Ukraine. However, NASA has issued a reality check saying that the probability of an impact is only 1 in 63000.
This means that the probability of the Asteroid not impacting the earth is 99.998%, which is quite huge. However, this discovery is significant because of the 10,332 near-Earth objects being tracked by scientists as of October 14, the 2013 TV135 is...
What makes incredible engineering projects? Is it their scale, their use of cutting-edge technology, or their imagination in taking on what seemed to be almost impossible engineering feats?
Project Management Training for 5,000 Naira
Some of the most impressive modern examples of engineering have ranged from the development of super particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider through to Dubai’s artificial islands, and the tallest building in the world (at least for the present anyway). While some of these projects are still experiencing some problems, their achievements deserve closer inspection:

Nokia has unveiled an innovative bicycle powered mobile phone battery charger. The Nokia bicycle charger kit charges your mobile phone battery while you ride. A bicycle powered charger will be hot in regions where bicycle riding is popular and electricity is in short supply. It is also eco-friendly, hence will be popular to environment conscious consumers. Of course it will appeal to some because it is simply cool. Nokia also announced some new cheap CSeries phones consisting of Nokia's first dual-SIM phones: Nokia C1-00 and Nokia C2-00; and Nokia's cheapest mobile phones with microSD data card support Nokia C1-01...
Nanotechnology deals with creating and manipulating materials, devices, and systems at the Nano scale (that is one billionth of a metre 10-9m). Nanotechnology also deals with building up by self-assembling atoms and molecules into useful structures. Nanotechnology is usually used to describe technology involved in the development and use of materials of size 100nanometre or smaller.
Nanotechnology has generated lots of interest because of its immense potential. At Nano scale, materials exhibit different properties compared to bulk materials. For example, Nano particles of Platinum become more catalytically at Nano scale. Even some materials that are normally non-catalytically as bulk materials...
