SHRIMPS ARE GOING TO POWER UP THE WORLD

Researchers at Queen Mary university of London have successfully created electricity genereting solar cells by using shells of the shrimps. They have found chitin and chitosin materials that are extremely cheaper than the Ruthenium, Platinum or any other material that are using to make solar cells. 

These reserches used hydrothermal crabonization(hydrothermal carbonization) to create carbon quantum dots (QOD) from shrimp shells and they coat standard Zinc Oxide nanorods with the CQDs to make solar cells. 

One of these resercher said that onece they improved their efficiency these solar cells can be used anywhere. Particularly charge the kind of devices people carry with them everyday.

BENIFITS OF TERRIFYING GP CRASH

Overhead halo saves Leclerc's life

`At Belgian Grand Prix in 27 august 2018, cars of the Fernando Alonso's and Charls eclerc's have crashed terribly. The race was heading into turn one at Spa, Renault driver Nico Hulkenberg blew way past his breaking point, smashing into the back of Fernando Alonso's Mclaren. This caused

Mclaren to flew upon the Charls Leclers's Sauber. When the Mclaren flew over the Sauber parts of the Mclaren have hit the overhead halo of the Sauber. Video of the Sauber shows how hard it hits the halo. After this horrifying crash Charls Leclerc walked away with no scratches.

when this halo was introduced to the F1 cars there was some controversy, mostly about it's aesthetics. some drivers did not like to drive with this halo. But after this crash undoubtedly we can say that the debate about the halo is officially ended and the halo wins and gets the honor it deserve. Here the evidence to prove our suggestion.

                                                   Tire marks of the Leclerc's halo

after this crash the survivor Charls Leclerc said, "i have never been a fan of the halo but i have to say that i was very happy to have it over my head today".As well as F1 posted a photo of the Leclerc's car after the crash proving that the halo kept his head safe.as well as after this crash Alonso said, "the positive side is we are all three okay. I flew over his car and the halo was good thing to have today".

Most drivers don't like those safety gadgets because they are slightly interrupt to the race but we have to say that safety is the first measure above all.

BUGATTI CHIRON SPECIAL EDITION (LEGO Bugatti)

LEGO makes Bugatti Chiron with their small plastic pieces

 We all know about the Lego cars, toy cars that have made up using large number of small plastic pieces.as well as we exactly know about the Bugatti Chiron, but can you imagine a Lego Bugatti Chiron that have size of the actual one with two seats, yeah it is exist. this one was revealed to the world at the grand prix F1 event in Monza.

 To build this they have used 1 000 000 of Lego technic parts, in this 1 000 000 there are 339 types of parts over 2300 Lego power function motors and over 4000 technic gear wheels. this one weighs 1.7 tons and make 5.3 horse powers but much more impressive 68 lb-ft torque to play with.

 this masterpiece was born in LEGO's Kladno factory in the Czech republic as usual. They have spent over 13000 working hours that was over 19 months of hard work. LEGO says the list of firsts includes:

first fully functioned self propelled life size technic car
first non glued model of such complexity
first large model powered using an array of electric motors
first large scale moving model using technic blocks and elements
first use of new type of transparent blocks
first time to create load bearing parts using technic bricks and elements with 58 new types of elements custom made for this effort

 they have used a champion driver Andy Wallace who has won 24 hours of Daytona and 24 hours of Le Mans to test this masterpiece.He achieved a top speed of 12mph.Hardly a shadow of a shadow of the real thing. But this is a champion car considering LEGOs.

  LATEST SCIENCE INNOVATIONS

  02. ROBOT SKIN

 

  Group of researchers in University of Houston has discovered a material that has ability to sense strain , pressure and temperature, Actually the rubber electronics can act as an artificial skin when it stretched up to 50% of it's length. But this material has special ability to give flexible sensing capabilities to a range of electronic devices.
 
  One of the team member Cun Jieng Yu, an assistant professor of University of Houston said, "It is a piece of rubber, but it has the function of circuit and sensors". As well as he said that they are going to publish their study on September 8 in the Journal Science Advances.

  One of the most valuable property of this rubbery semi conductor is , it starts in a liquid form, then it can be poured in to molds and scaled up to large sizes or even used like a kind of rubber based ink and 3D printed into a variety of different objects.

  As human want to be able to work near robots and coexist with them, this relationship should be happen safely, for that the robot itself needs to be able to fully sense it's surroundings. Considering that factor the research team has tested this material to measure temperature and pressure, they got very good results.

  considering all these functions of this material the research team said that "THIS WILL CHANGE THE FIELD OF STRETCHABLE ELECTRONICS".
