Nanotechnology Nanotechnology is actually a fairly new idea. This may not seem like any big deal in terms of ethics‚ but just like any type of scientific advancement there are positives and negatives. Of course the ethical issues don’t stem out of just the fact that this is a new kind of science. It branches off of "what will this new scientific technology be used for?" For example‚ Embryonic Stem Cell research. It’s not the research that’s bad it’s how they get the cells. There are half

And all of these systems are accompanied with some problems that can be summarized in three points; highly required energy problems‚ environmental problems and high costs. By time and with the great revolution in modern technology and minimization processes‚ these problems disappear gradually with the appearance of new modern technologies and leading these technologies is nanotechnology and its applications on buildings

Is Space Exploration Worth It? Space‚ the final frontier. We are born with an elemental eagerness to make the unknown known‚ to discover the undiscovered. Since ancient times‚ we have ventured far and wide. That inexorable vigor has perhaps become humanity’s greatest virtue. And so then‚ the question is‚ are we done? We have explored the extremities of our planet‚ and space is mankind’s next giant leap. Therefore‚ we must wonder‚ is it worth it? Is exploring the infinite stretch of space worth our

harmful gases that vehicles are giving off. Forget ethanol or biodiesel. The next big thing in automotive fuel may very well be hydrogen. Automakers rapidly are closing in on making hydrogen fuel cell vehicles an everyday fact of life‚ with several test models set to debut over the next few years. Hydrogen fuel cells to power vehicles are desirable‚ experts say‚ because hydrogen is a renewable fuel that can be used to create electricity to run cars. A chemical reaction between oxygen and hydrogen produces

The Final Frontier: The benefits of space exploration to provide a better life on Earth. Man once dreamt of flying‚ of touching the night sky and trampling the dirt on the surface of the moon. And for a long time we kept thinking it was only a dream. But on the 4th October 1957‚ Russia launched Sputnik 1‚ the first satellite into the depth of space‚ officially starting off the space age for us. And then on the 20th of July 1963‚ Neil Armstrong steps off onto the moon’s surface with the now famous
