Addictive Remix Olympics Live on Austrian TV This Weekend
A mixture of all three! It took us days to figure out exactly what was required, to be able to do exactly what we need to be doing, as it’s quite an unusual task we’re undertaking, especially the audiovisual sampling of live streams that you’ve actually no idea what exactly they’ll be until they happen!

Plan to Bomb the Moon and Find Water
Astronomers hate the moon. It's so bright that it blinds telescopes like the sun in a driver's eyes. There's no atmosphere, and the geology is basically dead. Maybe that's why, decades after Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked there, we have clearer maps of Mars than of our nearest neighbor.
But now, NASA needs to know more. The agency plans to return astronauts to the lunar surface in 12 years as the first step in establishing a permanent outpost. The base could be an ideal location for manufacturing processes best suited for low gravity, or for helium-3 mining to fuel future fusion reactors. The agency also sees the moon as the perfect construction site and launchpad for eventual manned journeys to Mars.

Self -growing material promises chip, storage advances
In the ever-growing desire to product smaller, less costly yet more powerful and faster computers and storage devices, researchers today said they are looking at a way to use self-growing fabrics that will let manufacturers build nano-sized high resolution semiconductors and arrays that answer that craving.
Researchers at the Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC) at the University of Wisconsin - Madison have come up with a method that uses existing technology to combine the lithography techniques traditionally used to pattern microelectronics with novel self-assembling materials known as block copolymers, researchers said. When combined with a lithographically patterned surface, the block copolymers' long molecular chains spontaneously assemble into the designated arrangements, researchers said.

British Ministry Of Defense Plans To Start Using Bomb-Dropping UFOs Within The Year
Without any external blades and using a two stroke petrol engine, the unmanned aerial vehicle can enter a building either through a window or door and send back high-quality images on its video camera feed.
With efforts being made to make an electric engine that generates little noise, the Fenstar's inventors, hope it could be quiet enough to snoop into rooms and plant listening devices without being seen or heard. Similarly it could also plant explosive devices to kill the enemy.

27 Titel für nächste Show von Hugo Egon Balder
Für Hugo Egon Balders nächste, variantenreiche Show sicherte sich Sat.1 27 Titel von "Peng! Die Westernshow" bis "Bibber! Die Wintershow". "Vier Shows, als Erste "Peng! Die Westernshow", werden ab November auf jeden Fall produziert", bestätigt Sat.1-Sprecherin Kristina Faßler gegenüber dem Kölner "Sonntags-Express". Denn "wir glauben daran, dass die ganzen Sendungen sehr lustig werden können, haben deswegen alle 27 Titel schützen lassen."
"Peng! Die Westernshow"
"Schlotter! Die Gruselshow"
"Aloha! Die Südseeshow"
"Holldriöh! Die Alpenshow"
"Muh! Die Bauernshow"
"AAIIAAH! Die Urwaldshow"
