The Mars rovers Spirit and Opportunity "will meet in January five years of uninterrupted work, after overcoming the vagaries of the planet and the term life of three months given to them by NASA scientists.

On 3 January 2004, scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) of NASA embraced elated with confirmation that the "Spirit" had descended on the surface of Mars. The scene was repeated 21 days later when the "Opportunity" landed on an opposite end of Mars. At that time, none of JPL scientists dared to predict that such vehicles are six independent wheels and the size of a washing machine would be working five years without major problems, except for a slight loss of computer memory and symptoms " arthritis "in its robotic arms.

"The U.S. taxpayer was informed that for each vehicle's mission was three months," said Ed Weiler, associate administrator of NASA in Washington. "But they have worked almost 20 times more. A gain in these moments of great budgetary constraints, "he said. Moreover, two months after his arrival, gave him the trophy would be expected from their mission on Mars: the proof that the planet had water in his violent past . also transmitted to Earth over 250 thousand pictures, toured more than 13 miles, climbed the mountain slopes, go down to the Martian crater and survived the harsh Martian storm that covered their solar panels and threatened to leave them without power. Although materials and equipment have begun to use fatigue and the effect of fluctuations hot 120 degrees Celsius, "the vehicles are in an operational capacity and ready to launch new campaigns," JPL said in a statement. "These vehicles are remarkably resilient considering the extreme environment that supports its materials every day," said John Callas, project manager at JPL.

vehicles and instruments found an unexpected ally for its operation on the Martian surface: violent dust storms .

"Aunque no es confiable, esa ha sido una ayuda no anticipada en la longevidad" de los dos vehículos exploradores, manifestó el laboratorio de la NASA.

Agregó que hace 18 meses que "Spirit" no recibe una "barrida" de las tormentas y sus paneles solares proporcionan apenas la energía que el vehículo necesita para sobrevivir a su tercer invierno en el hemisferio sur marciano."El último año fue extremadamente difícil.

But with the coming spring and summer, the scientists hope regarding the" Spirit "have increased and the experts and have set two points of exploration, to about 183 feet from where the car spent most of 2008.

For Opportunity, the heating problems in maintaining the permanent use of their instruments, the next destination is "Endeavour", a crater 22 kilometers in diameter and 20 times larger than the crater, "Victoria", which the rover over the past two years.

The target on Mars was much less sympathetic to the laboratory, "Phoenix" from NASA, which landed on Mars this year and three months of operations confirmed that there was water on the planet.

Mars explorers try to rescue a species extinct

Artist's mammoth

first sequenced the genome of an extinct animal, the mammoth

• The work opens the door to the possibility of rescuing the species from extinction
  
• They got the DNA from hair samples frozen for about 20,000 years
  

Not all tear scientific news of an occurrence or a great board full of indecipherable formulas. The story of the first obtaining the genome of an extinct animal began the discovery of a frozen mammoth somewhere in northernmost Siberia. And it ended today with the publication in the journal Nature sequencing of genetic material (nuclear DNA) of the "woolly mammoth, extinct animal that more than 3,500 years.

died a few days ago Michael Crichton, author of science fiction 'Jurassic Park' and it is inevitable that this research brings us to head to this writer. In the famous novel and the film adaptation directed Stephen Spielberg, the DNA came from blood contained a fossilized mosquito amber after biting a dinosaur. In the real case of the mammoth genome, the key has been in the remains of animal hair, a great source of genetic material.

research opens the door to the possibility of rescue from extinction woolly mammoths. However, it is still far for the current Science. Stephan C. Schuster, one of the principal authors of the research, said the potential developments which may bring the next revolution led by Craig Venter after creating first fully synthetic chromosome . "Someone like Venter can develop a quick way to transform the genome of the mammoth we have in the computer in whole chromosomes. "

That would be the first step. Then we also have to figure out how many chromosomes had the mammoth (even relatives, are not necessarily the same as the elephant, as evidenced by the fact that the chimpanzee, has a pair of chromosomes than humans) and housed in an egg I could carry it out. For now, this is just science fiction.

With mammoth hair found in Siberia, has extracted DNA which has sequenced the genome of the animal. "A genetic sequence does not a living organism," says Jeremy Austin, director of the Center for Ancient DNA University of Adelaide (Australia), "we have a partial sequence of the genome of the mammoth and a considerable number of errors, it would be like trying to build a car with 80% of the parts and knowing that some are broken."

appreciation of Austin is very successful, since research has completely deciphered only between 70 and 80% of the genome of the mammoth. "We align the sequences that we had with the available genome of an African elephant (Loxodonta africana), that way we know where to place each piece of string", says Schuster. Due to the huge similarity between the genomes of different vertebrates, whose genetic makeup already known, including human beings, "the missing pieces have been deduced by comparison with other agencies.

The procedure now used by researchers, is somewhat different from that used in the Human Genome Project. Almost any biological sample, is somehow contaminated by bacteria, fungi or other microorganisms, but this has been frozen to 20 degrees below zero for about 20,000 years, as it was the main sample used for the job. But that was not a problem for scientists. The technique used allows to obtain an extract of all the DNA in the hair of the mammoth, break it into separate pieces and then through a computer process, the animal belonging to the Pleistocene, of that from other microscopic organisms.

Once separated, it's time to order the genetic material belonging to the mammoth. To do this, use the elephant genome as a template, allowing out, as noted above, that the sample contains between 70 and 80% of the entire genome. The rest is inferred by comparative complex procedures.

The discrepancy between the genetic makeup of the mammoth and elephant, is half that between chimpanzees and humans, which has shown the evolutionary distance that separates the living relative mammoth closer. According to the authors, both groups have been separated and evolve in different ways for more than 1.5 million years. Evolutionary distance that might make it impossible to reach the dream of reviving the "woolly mammoth" after millennia of extinction.

According to this Circular, shall be inserted a second call "positive leap" in the scale of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

This UTC clocks, which will signal the arrival of the new year should mark this unusual reading: 23h 59m 60s, instead of the traditional 23h 59m 59s. The "second" will be officially added in Mexico, and will take effect on the three "time zones", which are used in Mexico, according to the time difference that separates the universal time, so for example for the central area, the change is made to the 17h 59m 60s.

The reason I used "leap seconds", is currently measures time with stable atomic clocks (International Atomic Time, TAI or International Atomic Time), plus the Earth's rotation has been slowing gradually, so the day has become longer, at a rate of 1.7 milliseconds per century, mainly due to tidal forces caused by Luna.

the present period of rotation of the Earth was much shorter in the past, and will be longer in the future. It was then a rotation period of six hours, to the early Earth, and that of 4 billion years. Night and day were happening every three hours, more or less on the violent T ierra, devoid of Luna. More once formed the Moon in this gigantic collision severity, has been slowing down the Earth's rotation, until the 24 hours that we know today, and continues to do so, at which the clocks should be set such as will be the next December 31.

More about black holes

Astronomers observe how the black hole of the Milky Way crushed material around

Tuesday 11/18/2008 20:31 (CET ) ELMUNDO.ES
MADRID .- An international team involving the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) has observed what happens in the environment of Sagittarius A * (Sgr A *), the supermassive black hole with a mass of four million higher than the sun, still eating matter at the center of the galaxy.

Researchers with the VLT and APEX telescopes located in Chile, have detected intense flares, a product of the clouds of tear gas that spin at high speed around the hole before falling on it. Black holes are difficult to observe, but SgrA * is a particularly challenging goal because in the center of the Milky Way there are huge amounts of gas and dust that cause the radiation emitted by objects in the visible wavelength, the type light we see with our eyes on the road are extinguished. Therefore, the study of this region must be performed at frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum capable of penetrating this veil: the more the better, since it is the only way to get a complete picture of the phenomenon. Thus the researchers have used the VLT and APEX telescopes that capture infrared and submillimeter waves respectively. This is the first time you get simultaneous measurements of lightning with these instruments.

SgrA * is visible only in infrared light for short periods of time, when shows strong flares. And as you can not predict when these events occur is not easy to observe with two telescopes that are not in the same place, because a single cloud could cover the region Sky interest. In addition, "we must be very patient," explains Rainer Schödel, Institute of Astrophysics of Andalucia (CSIC Granada). After several nights of waiting, responsible for the VLT astronomers discovered that SgrA * was activated, and its brightness increased every minute. Alerted their colleagues in the APEX and during the next six hours, found violent variations in the brightness of Sgr A *, plus four major flares.

As expected astronomers first recorded flares at infrared wavelengths, and an hour and a half later, submillimeter wave. This is due to the expansion of the gas clouds that eventually fall the hole: the speed with which revolve in the last orbits around Sgr A * is stretched, increasing its size and becoming more transparent. "At the moment we can only perceive the issue of SgrA * as a point of light. However, as in astronomical terms is close to the Earth, which is relatively large, in five or ten years, we hope to be able to directly observe the gas swirling around them, "concludes Schödel.

THE BLACK HOLES

Black holes can not swallow it all. There electromagnetic radiation at wavelengths as large that no light can enter, said Sergio Ramos Mendoza researcher at the Institute of Astronomy, UNAM.

The scholar said that if someone measuring 1.80 meters high attempt to pass through a door of a meter, "essentially bounces. Thus, a shorter wavelength than the size of the hole can be absorbed, otherwise , is rejected and no way to make her come. "

also explained that the holes are not as black as they say, they emit electromagnetic radiation, are the simplest macroscopic objects of the universe and are described by their mass, charge and level of rotation.

In making the conference "Holes do not swallow black light "at the Institute of Astronomy, UNAM physicist with graduate studies at Churchill College, Cambridge University, said that there are different types of holes.

black holes in he said, the light is attracted by gravitational force, is a phenomenon not observed in the earth, for here is not strong enough to pull it out. "Black holes may be a few solar masses, but there are also super, as those formed in the center of galaxies like ours, "Mendoza said Ramos.

holes also exist intermediate masses, and others that occurred in the first moments of the creation of the universe, because there were certain irregularities in the cosmic material that induced strong gravitational collapses that could arise.

There is no way to see black holes because they are dark, is used to detect gravitational accretion of gas or to them, because when it gets too hot undergoes thermal instability and emits electromagnetic radiation.

This is because gravity is the best way to convert mass into energy, he said.

Yemeni girl of 10 years, obtained a divorce

Tuesday 11 November, 6:39 a.m. NEW YORK (AFP) -

A Yemeni girl was honored on Monday among the "Women of the Year" by Glamour magazine in the U.S., to achieve with his lawyer to break a marriage at age 10.
American monthly magazine specialized in fashion and celebrities announced that it awarded the girl Nujood Ali because "her husband faced in court, and this year won a landmark divorce" with her lawyer Shada Nasser.
According to tribal tradition of Yemen, a 9 year old girl can marry and although the law does not allow marriage to 15, often imposed on the ancient practice law.

The award sponsored by L'Oreal the largest manufacturer of cosmetics in the world, includes a ceremony on Monday at Carnegie Hall in New York, in the presence of stars and celebrities.
Sen. Hillary Clinton, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and actress Nicole Kidman are among the other women honored by Glamour. The magazine said in a statement that rewarded "unprecedented contributions to the entertainment world, business, sports, fashion, science and politics." Were also awarded the television hostess Tyra Banks, Chanel President Maureen Chiquet, anthropologist Jane Goodall, an association of women who received the Nobel Prize, beach volleyball champions Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh, as well as the artist Kara Walker.

CLASSICAL REVIEW OF THEORY

Tan simple as convincing.

The experiment that a scientist at the University of Chicago named Stanley Miller played over and over again in the laboratory more than half a century continues today explaining the possible origins of life on Earth.
A historical and study published in 'Science' in 1953, showed how the components from the initial atmosphere, the amino acids could emerge as the key to the formation of life.
had not known and accessible ingredients for that "primordial soup" as described by Darwin: methane, hydrogen, ammonia, water and electricity.
Miller's experiment, now common in chemistry classes of the institutes, was to bring together all these ingredients and discharge electricity, thus simulating the ocean, atmosphere and the rays of 4,500 million years ago.
The result was a soup of amino acids. A simple experiment was successful in creating 13 of the 21 amino acids necessary for life. The famous astrophysicist Carl Sagan considered "the most significant step to convince scientists that life may be abundant in the cosmos."
Fifty-five years later, the same journal 'Science' published a review of the experiment. Jeffrey Bada of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California at San Diego, and colleagues have reinterpreted the analysis of Miller to conclude that the major components of life could come from volcanic eruptions.

More amino
During these decades, several evidences have questioned the validity of the atmosphere recreated by Miller (there are doubts that it would be so reductive, ie oxygen-poor). However, the new experiment carried out by Bada suggests that "even if the overall atmosphere was not reducing, could have been a localized prebiotic synthesis" in volcanic systems, the study said.
Earth is believed that, originally, was a turbulent world, shaken by volcanic activity. The current study suggests that lightning and gases emissions resulting from volcanic eruptions could produce the chemicals necessary for life. Returning to the experiment with contemporary techniques, researchers have created a total of ... 22 amino acids!
After testing, the authors of the study released today, reported that "the steam [ejected by volcanoes], injecting a spark [power], may have generated hydroxy radicals or react with the precursors of amino acids or amino acids themselves. "

CLASSICAL REVIEW OF THEORY

Tan simple as convincing.

The experiment that a scientist at the University of Chicago named Stanley Miller played over and over again in the laboratory more than half a century continues today explaining the possible origins of life on Earth.
A historical and study published in 'Science' in 1953, showed how the components from the initial atmosphere, the amino acids could emerge as the key to the formation of life.
had not known and accessible ingredients for that "primordial soup" as described by Darwin: methane, hydrogen, ammonia, water and electricity.
Miller's experiment, now common in chemistry classes of the institutes, was to bring together all these ingredients and discharge electricity, thus simulating the ocean, atmosphere and the rays of 4,500 million years ago.
The result was a soup of amino acids. A simple experiment was successful in creating 13 of the 21 amino acids necessary for life. The famous astrophysicist Carl Sagan considered "the most significant step to convince scientists that life may be abundant in the cosmos."
Fifty-five years later, the same journal 'Science' published a review of the experiment. Jeffrey Bada of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California at San Diego, and colleagues have reinterpreted the analysis of Miller to conclude that the major components of life could come from volcanic eruptions.

More amino
During these decades, several evidences have questioned the validity of the atmosphere recreated by Miller (there are doubts that it would be so reductive, ie oxygen-poor). However, the new experiment carried out by Bada suggests that "even if the overall atmosphere was not reducing, could have been a localized prebiotic synthesis" in volcanic systems, the study said.
Earth is believed that, originally, was a turbulent world, shaken by volcanic activity. The current study suggests that lightning and gases emissions resulting from volcanic eruptions could produce the chemicals necessary for life. Returning to the experiment with contemporary techniques, researchers have created a total of ... 22 amino acids!
After testing, the authors of the study released today, reported that "the steam [ejected by volcanoes], injecting a spark [power], may have generated hydroxy radicals or react with the precursors of amino acids or amino acids themselves. "
After Miller's death in 2007, Bada, and veteran, and his colleagues rescued the original chemical samples that "primordial soup." "We were sure that there were still things to discover in Miller's original experiment, "Bada said study co-author."

The machine of 'Big Bang' is out of play until the spring of 2009. Those responsible the newly opened Large Hadron Collider (LHC) today announced that the damage suffered by the force Friday keep it paralyzed at least six months.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) began its operation last September 10 which has been considered the most expensive scientific project and ambitious to date. Less than two weeks after he ripped it emerged that he had suffered a helium leak so should stand at least two months.
Now, the project leaders have announced that they will be just 60 days to be arrested, but his work will not resume until spring of next year, as reported by the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN). Early research
on the fault indicate that the collapse was probably due to mechanical failure in the electrical connection between two of the accelerator's magnets, and this problem will take about eight weeks to repair. Subsequently, as every winter, CERN will stop the operation of all facilities to perform tasks Manen, so the LHC will not start again until spring of next year.
"This is undoubtedly a psychological blow," acknowledged yesterday Robert Aymar, the director of the European Centre for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva. "However, I am convinced that we will overcome this setback with the same rigor with which we have built and up this great accelerator, "Aymar said.
Last Friday, two of the magnets that make up the interior of the LHC underground tunnel melted, causing a leak of a ton of liquid helium in the gas. The incident set off any alarms in the control room, in what many consider the most ambitious scientific experiment in history, and forced to call the fire department to verify that there was no risk of fire.

Study of the Pyrenees

Updated Saturday 20/09/2008 20:09 (CET ) OSHIMA TANA MADRID .-

A Franco-English team draws the first geological map of the mountain.

The mapping includes the first map of recent climate events in the area.

Undress the mountains and outline the silhouette of the rocks that form, it is not easy. And much less reconstruct climatic conditions around the mountains during the Quaternary, the immediate past, although geologic immediately began 2.5 million years ago. Therefore, French and English geologists have thought it of interest to provide the first map of the Pyrenees to include this data.

bare mountains, and a glance.

The first comprehensive geological map of the Pyrenees, just delivered from the hand of French and English geologists, who have managed to compile existing data to draw for the first time a comprehensive topographical view of the mountain. The cartography, drawn up by the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain (IGME) and the Centre for Geological and Mining Research of France (BRGM), was presented Saturday at the University of Pau (France).

"We want to be useful also for the fans, because The items displayed are easily identifiable, "he told elmundo.es Cecilio Quesada, chief of staff's technical support unit to the general direction of IGME and secretary of the National Committee of Geology. To make it easier for users unless experts, the map is plotted on a shaded digital elevation model, taken by a NASA satellite. Through the shadows is possible to identify the physical geography, topography. "Until now the problem was to make a single map," he added Quesada. "There was no topographic support for it. There was one from France, one from Spain, but there was no common element. "

actually are two maps.

The first radiograph the mountains, outlining the silhouette of the rocks that form them and describing their nature and their age. Some are young and old, from which date back to the end of the Precambrian, about 600 million years ago (the Earth is about 4,500 million years), long before they formed their own mountain range (in the Tertiary, about 60 million years), to the most recent being the moraines (deposits associated with glaciers), about 15,000 years ago. And there are all types: granites and shales at the top, limestone, sandstone, clays and conglomerates in marginal areas.

the Pyrenees during the Quaternary
The second play how were the Pyrenees during the Quaternary (specifically, until about 250,000 or 300,000 years), the mountain was covered of glaciers, which moved mostly during the Pleistocene to go back later in warmer periods, and re-expansion during the Little Ice Age, between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

weather episodes of the immediate past (just a flicker on a geological scale) are accompanied by some cultures of both our ancestors and the most characteristic fauna of that period. For example, the arrival of Homo sapiens 50,000 years ago coincides with the largest expansion of ice in the Pyrenees. The mapping information also reflects other paleontological data, as the presence of mammoth in the mountainous region to 13,000 years ago. The glaciers in the recent past was the one who set the current form of the Franco-chain, as glaciers, which expand and recede depending on weather conditions, act as river erosion and help to sculpt the mountains at times of thaw. Now, with warming Overall, the large majority of these glaciers has disappeared or is disappearing. Hence the interest to know how were the Pyrenees in the past, says Quesada. "The dimensions of the Pyrenean glaciers during the Pleistocene were similar to those of the largest glaciers in the present can be found in the Alps, ie several tens of kilometers. The modeling of the Pyrenees and responds to higher erosive work carried out by glaciers during the Pleistocene last glacial maximum, "explains Juan José González Trueba, Department of Geography, University of Cantabria and English glaciologist.

The map scale 1:400.000, has been carried out under the International Year of Planet Earth 2008 , dedicated to the Earth Sciences.
