POPSVertical Aeroponic Planting Vertical aeroponic planting means growing plants mid-air without soil, utilizing very rich nutrient solutions for moisture. It is very important to water conservation and space technology.

POPSDesign and the Elastic Mind Design and the Elastic Mind explores the reciprocal relationship between science and design in the contemporary world by bringing together design objects and concepts that marry the most advanced scientific research with attentive consideration of human limitations, habits, and aspirations. The exhibition highlights designers’ ability to grasp momentous changes in technology, science, and history—changes that demand or reflect major adjustments in human behavior—and translate them into objects that people can actually understand and use. This Web site presents over three hundred of these works, including fifty projects that are not featured in the gallery exhibition.

POPS China's 'Arsenal' Spurs Warnings The U.S. military is vulnerable to China's advanced war-fighting systems, including space weapons and computer attacks that would be used in a future conflict over Taiwan, according to a congressional commission's report released yesterday. The full report presents a harsh assessment of China's military buildup and plans for a war against the U.S. if Beijing decided to use force against the island nation of Taiwan.

POPSSpace and Advanced Technology - A Future Space Suit Imagine that you are aboard a space station, spun to simulate Earth's normal gravity. After instruction, you have been given a suit to try out: there it hangs on the wall, a gray, rubbery-looking thing with a transparent helmet. You take it down, heft its substantial weight, strip, and step in through the open seam on the front.

POPSCosmologist presents alternative to Big Bang Germani's alternative, unveiled at a cosmology conference at the University of Sussex, UK, last month, is based on a string-theory model in which the three visible dimensions of space are confined to the surface of a membrane, or brane, floating in a 10-dimensional space. The extra dimensions are wrapped up into a complex shape known as a Calabi-Yau space. The forces and particles in our 3D world are shadows of the motion of branes and strings in the Calabi-Yau space. The problem with the simplest versions of this model is that the Calabi-Yau space is unstable, constantly vibrating and changing size. Each wobble of the surface creates unwanted particles and extra forces in the universe - none of which have ever been observed. Attempts by string theorists to stabilise the space always warp it, forcing strange spikes and throats to pop out, Germani says. This warping, he believes, is the key to explaining the evolution of our universe.

POPSMust-know terms for the 21st Century intellectual One author's mostly optimistic prediction of the ideas that will come to define our collective future. Nicely done. Open Source : This is a term that most people are familiar with, but it’s worth re-stating. The open source revolution, where information is freely distributed and editable, is already reshaping a number of industries and upsetting traditional economic and intellectual property models. Wikipedia has very quickly become the world’s largest repository of encyclopedic information. Linux and other open source software continue to rival the big players. And looking further down the line, there’s the potential for open source science, culture, and the disturbing potential for open source warfare.

POPSOUTPOST EARTH
The Hubble space telescope has revealed images of our Universe that until recently would have been incomprehensible. The vastness of the universe with its billions of galaxies overwhelms the mind and humbles the human sprit. A new armada of advanced telescopes scans the Heavens for Planets. These new juggernauts have already discovered dozens of Planets circling their stars in a timeless dance millions of light years away. There is little doubt among astronomers that hundreds if not thousands of planets will be eventually documented. A number of new deep space telescopes are in the works and scheduled for deployment in the next few years. One already emerging theme is that Earth like planets are rare, while gaseous giants and solid rock planets are the norm. Even though this developing search is in its earliest stages, finding Earth like planets will be equivalent to finding Gold or Diamonds here on our own globe. Our planet would be seen as a great treasure to anyone looking back
