There’s a new browser in town, and it combines something familiar with something new. It’s called Helium.
The post Helium May Just Be the Browser You’ve Been Looking For appeared first on Thurrott.com.

Helium is inert, which makes it useful in a lot of different industries. But helium’s colorless and odorless non-reactivity also means traditional gas sensing methods don’t work. Specialized detectors exist, …read more Continue reading Detecting Helium Leaks with Sound in a Physics-Based Sensor
Why is it always a helium leak? It seems whenever there’s a scrubbed launch or a narrowly averted disaster, space exploration just can’t get past the problems of helium plumbing. …read more Continue reading Hackaday Links: September 1, 2024
As anyone who’s ever seen a science fiction movie knows, whipping up a black hole in a laboratory doesn’t seem like such a good idea.

When cleaning out basements, garages, or storage units we often come across things long forgotten. Old clothes, toys, maybe a piece of exercise equipment, or even an old piece of …read more Continue reading Rebuilding a $700k Refrigerator
Google co-founder Sergey Brin quietly founded LTA Research in 2015, and its massive Pathfinder 1 rigid airship prototype is preparing for its first outdoor flights, with a view to speeding up disaster response and starting zero-infrastructure cargo fli… Continue reading Sergey Brin’s 400-foot airship reportedly cleared for takeoff
Scientists from Caltech and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) have found evidence that Earth’s core is leaking. High levels of a particular isotope of helium were found in lava flows in Canada, which the team proposes originated in the planet… Continue reading Lava studies suggest Earth’s core is leaking
Zero-emissions long-distance aviation is absolutely possible… Provided you’re not in a hurry. Solar Airship One will take 20 days to fly all the way around the equator, some 40,000 km (~25,000 miles), in a single zero-emissions hop.Continue ReadingCa… Continue reading Solar-powered airship will circle the world non-stop without fuel
Most of us probably have a vision of how “The Robots” will eventually rise up and deal humanity out of the game. We’ve all seen that movie, of course, and …read more Continue reading Hackaday Links: September 10, 2023
Astronomers have discovered a new type of star, and it appears to be a major clue in solving a long-standing cosmic mystery. This massive helium star has an ultra-strong magnetic field, meaning it could be the preliminary stage of a magnetar – a dense … Continue reading Astronomers discover new type of star that could unlock cosmic mystery
