NASA discovered Saturn’s mysterious atmosphere boasts diamonds raining down on the planet, it was revealed during a new documentary. Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-largest in the Solar System, only behind Jupiter.   It is a gas giant with an average radius about nine times that of Earth and it’s most famous feature is its prominent ring system made up of ice and dust. However, while many scientists have spent years trying to understand how and when these features emerged, they have stumbled across an even more bizarre discovery inside its atmosphere.   Like Jupiter, Saturn is a massive ball made mostly of hydrogen and helium, but it contains much more sulphur than its fellow sister planet.   Brian Cox revealed during his new BBC series “The Planets” how NASA’s Cassini probe made a shock discovery when taking a closer look at its weather in 2013.   He said last month: “By studying the cloud tops of Saturn and its great ...

The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) this week confirmed that its Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) was hacked last year . An audit document from the U.S. Office of the Inspector General was published by NASA this week. It reveals that an unauthorized Raspberry Pi computer connected to the JPL servers was targeted by hackers, who then moved laterally further into the NASA network  with the attacker able to steal 500 MB of data related to the space agency’s missions using a cheap Raspberry Pi computer . The Raspberry Pi, priced at about $36 for the basic board, is one of the most versatile and understated computing platforms available in the market. The credit card-sized computer is perfect for projects such as a retro gaming station or a smart home gadgets base station, but a hacker has apparently found a twisted use for it. The account was compromised by a hacker who used a Raspberry Pi to gain unauthorized access to the JPL network. The attacker th...

FACTS The assignment is to move containers from the DFDS logistics centre in Gothenburg to an APM terminals container terminal according to needed capacity. The autonomous system is monitored by an operator in a control tower who is also responsible for the transport. The solution is suited for repetitive flows with a maximum speed of 40 km/h. Infrastructure adaptations are part of the scope in the implementation of the total transport system, including automated gates at the terminals.  Volvo Trucks and DFDS are main partners but several actors are involved in implementing Vera’s first assignment. Volvo VERA - The Autonomus Vehicle QUESTIONS  answered By  Mikael Karlsson, Vice President Autonomous Solutions, Volvo Trucks Q1. What does Vera offer customers? Ans.  For Volvo Trucks it is important to offer a premium experience, giving our customers peace of mind and trouble-free transport solutions. We believe that Vera can take ...
