Hubble sees Pandora's Cluster
2011-06-23
A team of scientists studying the galaxy cluster Abell 2744, nicknamed Pandora's Cluster, have pieced together the cluster's complex and violent history using telescopes in space and on the ground, including the Hubble Space Telescope, the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, the Japanese Subaru telescope, and NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory.
The giant galaxy cluster appears to be the result of a simultaneous pile-up of at least four separate, smaller galaxy clusters. The crash took place over a span of 350 million years.
The galaxies in the cluster ...
NASA sees heavy rainfall on southern side of Tropical Depression Haima as it nears Hong Kong
2011-06-23
Tropical Depression Haima, formerly known as 06W continues moving toward Hong Kong and NASA infrared satellite imagery shows strong rain-making thunderstorms in the southern quadrant of the storm. Rainfall is something that a rain-weary China doesn't need, so preparations are being made now.
Heavy rainfall is expected as Haima approaches in southern Taiwan, and also in southern areas of China's Fujian and Guangdong provinces, and Hainan Island. That heavy rainfall was spotted on an infrared image captured by NASA's Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument on June ...

2011-06-23
The AIRS instrument on NASA's Aqua satellite captured an infrared image of the western North Pacific's seventh tropical depression become massive Tropical Storm Meari overnight. Meari is so large that it takes up almost the entire Philippine Sea and it's on track toward southeastern Taiwan.
Tropical Storm Meari's large area of cold thunderstorm cloud tops were captured on an infrared image from NASA's Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument on June 21 at 17:11 UTC (1:11 p.m. EDT). The strongest thunderstorms covered an area of hundreds of miles around what oddly ...
Tooth Pain a Sign of Allergy Season, Reports FocusedCareDental.com
2011-06-23
Everybody and his brother are reaching for tissues, eye drops and antihistamines to ward off the effects of pollen, mold and other seasonal allergy triggers. Some of America's 40 million sinusitis sufferers even have to resort to pain medicines to dull sinus-related headaches and tooth pain, says public health advocate Allan Melnick, a prominent clinical dentist in Encino, Calif.
"I have patients presenting with tooth pain, who don't realize it's linked to their sinus infection. They think they have a cavity, but the pain is actually a sinus 'plumbing' problem," ...
Toxic compounds in groundwater
2011-06-23
MADISON, WI, JUNE 22, 2011 -- Vinyl chloride is a cancer-causing compound formed from solvents in groundwater systems under anaerobic conditions. These solvents are used in many industrial applications around the world and often belong to the most encountered groundwater pollutants in industrialized countries. Groundwater is a major drinking water resource, and it is vital to determine if vinyl chloride can be further degraded into harmless compounds.
A group of scientists at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausannne (EPFL) and the University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland, ...
Competition between brain cells spurs memory circuit development
2011-06-23
ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Scientists at the University of Michigan Health System have for the first time demonstrated how memory circuits in the brain refine themselves in a living organism through two distinct types of competition between cells.
Their results, published today in Neuron, mark a step forward in the search for the causes of neurological disorders associated with abnormal brain circuits, such as Alzheimer's disease, autism and schizophrenia.
"Much of our understanding of the brain's wiring has come from studying our sensory and motor systems, but far less is ...
Birds 'flap run' instead if flying over obstacles to save energy
2011-06-23
Why don't you ever see baby pigeons? For the same reason you don't see many chicks: they can't fly. It can take months for their partially developed wings and flight muscles to become airworthy, and by then the youngsters are almost fullygrown. However, long before their maiden flight, pigeon chicks probably put their developing wings to use, flapping as they run up steep branches. Brandon Jackson from the University of Montana, USA, explains that Ken Dial and his son first noticed this strange behaviour when filming chuckar chicks negotiating obstacles: instead of flying ...
