China Is Building A Huge Telescope Drone Footage Suggests

China is reaching the final stages of constructing the world’s biggest and most delicate radio telescope. The government-owned China Central Television has unrestricted drone footage presenting their development, as well as the vertigo-inducing magnitude of it.

The 500-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) is being constructed deep in the hazy mountains of Pingtang County, positioned in the Guizhou Province of southwest China. Assembly has been going on since 2011. When completed in 2016, the FAST will come to be the biggest radio telescope on the planet – at 500 meters (1,640 feet) in diameter, its dish will trump Puerto Rico's Arecibo Observatory, which is 300 meters (984 feet) wide.

Wu Xiangping, the director-general of the Chinese Astronomical Society, said to Xinhua News, "Having a more sensitive telescope, we can receive weaker and more distant radio messages. It will help us to search for intelligent life outside of the galaxy and explore the origins of the universe."

China will have to foot an similarly massive bill for this project, with assessments suggesting it will cost around 700 million yuan ($110,328,309).

To Keep Patient’s Hand Alive for a Month, Surgeons Grafted It to Patient’s Own Leg

In a story that echoes the happenings of 2013, another Chinese working person has had their hand amputated – and sewn back onto their leg to avoid wasting the unembodied extremity from dying. once feat the hand in situ for a month, the arm from that it had been removed had with success well enough to permit the doctors to reattach it.

After obtaining his mitt caught in a very spinning blade within the plant within which he was operating, the patient – solely known as Zhou – was rush to a neighborhood hospital in China’s Hunan province wherever he was ab initio told that he’d lose the hand. He was then transferred to Xiangya Hospital within the province's capital, that had much more expertise in “replantation” surgery, with an equivalent team additionally acting the known 2013 surgery.

Defined because the “reattachment of the amputated limb exploitation the neurovascular and contractile organ structures,” the primary flourishing replantation surgery occurred in Japan in 1965, involving reattachment of a personality's thumb once it had been cut off by a steel cutting machine. Since then, fingers, toes, arms, legs, ears and even penises have all been replanted back onto their various locations.

According to the yank Society for Surgery of the Hand, replantation ought to usually follow 3 steps. the primary is that the broken tissue ought to be rigorously removed, followed by shortening the ends of the bones, however solely within the cut off limb and not within the stump. this can be a security live just in case replantation isn’t flourishing and also the stump should be reconstructed. Finally, the tendons, arteries, nerves and veins ought to be repaired, if necessary exploitation grafts.
Because of the severe harm done to each the arm and hand, and also the time it'd view as them to recover, it had been set that the simplest possibility was to hook the hand up to a blood offer from another a part of the body. “In traditional temperatures, a cut off finger ought to resume blood offer at intervals ten hours. The time is even shorter for a separated limb,” Dr. Tang Juyu, head of hand surgical process at Xiangya Hospital, told People’s Daily. “If it falls wanting blood for long, the tissues die and it'd be not possible to urge it back.”
Since the hand has been reattached throughout AN epic 10-hour surgery, Zhou has shown slight movement in his fingers, tho' clearly he still desires for much longer rehabilitation to urge something close to full perform back within the hand.

Man Deliver Three Baby Sharks From Dead Mother

Beach-goers in Cape Town, Africa had an unexpected find when they stumbled across a dead shark lying washed close to shore. Upon close inspection, they noticed the shark's stomach moving, and decided to investigate. They cut open the shark's abdomen, and found three baby sharks inside.

Those concerned for the infants will be relieved to hear that baby sharks do not remain with their mother's after the birth, so her premature death should not cause them undue harm.

Army Cockroach

Following disasters such as earthquakes or tornadoes, it can be challenging to locate and rescue survivors from collapsed buildings. A group from North Carolina State University have designed “cockroach cyborgs” to aid in the search and rescue effort. The roaches’ antennae are connected to little electronic backpacks with microphones that draw them toward sound, like from the cries of a trapped individual. The team has published two papers describing this “biobot” technology, which utilizes Madagascar hissing cockroaches and a Kinect-based computer platform.

"In a collapsed building, sound is the best way to find survivors," Alper Bozkurt said in a press release. Bozkurt was the senior author on both papers.
 In order to accurately find the source of the sound, the team had to engineer two different kinds of biobots. The first type has one omnidirectional microphone that can pick up sound and transmit it back to first responders.
 The second type of cockroach backpack has three directional microphones. The computer chip analyzes the sound coming in from the microphone array, and will tell the biobot to move toward the source of the noise. Of course, the rubble of a collapsed building is going to have a cacophony of sounds, from the cries panicked survivors, to falling debris, to the sound of extraction tools.
 "The goal is to use the biobots with high-resolution microphones to differentiate between sounds that matter -- like people calling for help -- from sounds that don't matter -- like a leaking pipe," Bozkurt says. "Once we've identified sounds that matter, we can use the biobots equipped with microphone arrays to zero in on where those sounds are coming from."
The paper describing these acoustic sensors was presented on Wednesday at the IEEE Sensors 2014 conference in Valencia, Spain by lead author Eric Whitmire. The team has been able to successfully steer the biobots through sound in the lab, which you can see here:
The team presented a paper that detailed the invisible fence in August at the 36th Annual International IEEE EMBS Conference in Chicago. The fence can be seen in action here:

Once the biobots have successfully aided rescuers in locating survivors, nobody wants them to be able to run free and continue to chase down the next source of sound. The team has also designed an invisible fencing system that keeps the biobots in a specified zone. In addition to preventing the public panic that would ensue from a roaming band of rogue roach cyborgs, keeping the biobots in close proximity of one another allows their devices to connect and act as a mobile wireless network.
