Daniel Valuch Chats About CERN’s High Caliber Hacking
For those of us who like to crawl over complex systems, spending hours or even days getting hardware and software to work in concert, working at places like NASA or …read more Continue reading Daniel Valuch Chats About CERN’s High Caliber Hacking
Bug hacks physics with “butt flickers” to launch pee at 40 G’s
We’re willing to bet you’ve never given much thought to how bugs urinate, but even if you did you probably wouldn’t imagine them using butt-based pinball paddles to flick drops of pee at 40 G’s, using physics never before seen in nature.Continue Readin… Continue reading Bug hacks physics with “butt flickers” to launch pee at 40 G’s
Bizarre new form of ice might be “true glassy state” of water
Ice and water might not seem very exciting to most of us, but they’re actually super strange from a scientific standpoint. Researchers have now discovered a brand new type of ice that’s described as being a true “snapshot” of water, and may be found on… Continue reading Bizarre new form of ice might be “true glassy state” of water

A Single-Resistor Radio Transmitter, Thanks to the Power of Noise
One of the great things about the Hackaday community is how quickly you find out what you don’t know. That’s not a bad thing, of course; after all, everyone is …read more Continue reading A Single-Resistor Radio Transmitter, Thanks to the Power of Noise
Scientists guide lightning bolts with laser beams for first time
Lightning rods have been used to guide lightning strikes for centuries, but now scientists have demonstrated something a bit more advanced than a humble metal stick. Beaming a high-powered laser into the sky was shown to deflect lightning bolts, which … Continue reading Scientists guide lightning bolts with laser beams for first time
A DIY Pulse Tube Cryocooler in the Quest For Home-Made Liquid Nitrogen
What if you have a need for liquid nitrogen, but you do not wish to simply order it from a local supplier? In that case you can build your very …read more Continue reading A DIY Pulse Tube Cryocooler in the Quest For Home-Made Liquid Nitrogen
How The Turntable Paradox Works
Leave most objects on top of a turntable, and set it spinning, and they’ll fly off in short order. Do the same with a ball, though, and it somehow manages …read more Continue reading How The Turntable Paradox Works
Europe’s Energy Squeeze Pushes Large Hadron Collider To Halt Operations
Energy prices have been in the news more often than not lately, as has war. The two typically go together, as conflicts tend to impact on the supply and trade …read more Continue reading Europe’s Energy Squeeze Pushes Large Hadron Collider To Halt Operations
