Connectedness is not a luxury—it’s a tool for survival because it stimulates response. Haitians and their loved ones see the direct benefits in efforts by Google to provide up-to-minute news on the whereabouts of individuals. And, more indirectly, the rapid giving model is accelerating philanthropy in ravaged lands.

According to estimates, about 10% of the propellant using
for positioning in orbit is wasted in the hollow cathode construction of the
Hall effect thrusters currently in use. A new project funded by DARPA will aim
to replace propellant with field-effect cathodes made from bundles of
multi-walled carbon nanotubes. This electric drive will use electrons to ionize
an inert gas to produce thrust.

Engineers in Germany,
attempting to improve the technology behind wireless radio transmission by way
of light waves, have invented a reproducible way to create dipole nanoantennas of
the necessary size: 350 nm at the maximum, which is half the wavelength of
light at the several hundred gigahertz range of radio communication.

Imagine watching your favorite TV show and talking about it with one friend on the phone, while at the same time trading messages with others on Twitter and email. Sound like an impossible juggling act? A team of faculty from the Georgia Institute of Technology has formed a historic partnership with the Korean government, industry, and universities to develop a single platform where these and even more multimedia functions can take place, even anticipating what show you might like to watch or what music you might want to listen to.
