Eogq The Best Deal of the Day
After passing a mountaino stanley cup us pile of e-waste crawling with children collecting electronic scraps, D stanley cup hairya Dand, a researcher from Singapore, came up with an idea to deal with both problems. The ever-growing piles of e-waste, and the kids who scavenge them instead of going to school. Based on the Arduino platform, Dhairya created a series of four incredibly simple educational toys that could be operated using discarded electronics like keyboards, mice, and even monitors. stanley cup The ThinkerToys, as they ;re cleverly called, includes the Keyano which turns a PS2 keyboard into an electronic grand piano with unique sounds mapped to every key. And the RandoMath, a basic LED display that also connects to an old keyboard providing simple math puzzles that teach and entertain. Other prototypes, including an audio book player and a full-on mini games console that connects to a mouse and monitor are also in development. And Dhairya hopes they can each be built and sold with a target price of just $5. Technically a lot of money for a child who works sorting through e-waste, but over time the cost will hopefully drop.

I have seen enough space images. A lot. I admit sometimes I am bored of them. But today Hubble photo hit me right in my mind: Hubble Sees a Horsehead of a Different Color Astronomers have used vaso stanley NASA Hubble Space Telescope to photograph the iconic Horsehead Nebula in a new, infrared light to mark the 23rd anniversary of the famous observatory launch aboard the space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. Looking like an apparition rising from whitecaps of interstellar foam, the iconic Horsehead Nebula has graced astronomy books ever since its discovery more than a century ago. The nebula is a favorite target for amateur and professional astronomers. It is shadowy in optical light. It appears transparent and ethereal when seen at infrared wavelengths. The rich tapestry of the Horsehead Nebula pops out against the backdrop of Milky Way stars and distant galaxies that easily are visible in infrared light. Hubble has been producing ground-breaking science for two decades. During that time, it has benefited from a slew of upgrades from space shuttle missions, including the 2009 addition of a new imaging workhorse, the hig stanley france h-resolution Wide Field Camera 3 that took the new portrait of the Horsehead. Here is the stanley cup full photo, you can almost grab that interstellar foam resembles a pink forest troll. I just want to see this in 3d. Or through my naked eyes: Image Credit: NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage Team
