New laser technology could photograph galaxies 75,000 years away
We could soon be able to take photographs of stars 75,000 years away after new technology was configured to speed the up the process using lasers, according to ANU astrophysicist and cosmologist Dr Brad Tucker.
“The fact that we’ve never even seen anything else besides a few planets in our own solar system up close is the exciting thing,” he told Sky News.
“At the current technology right now, it takes 75,000 years to get to the nearest star system but now with this idea of using a huge array of lasers to shoot at a sail and then blast that sail off into space we think that we could reach the next star in a couple of decades.”
Dr Tucker said the technology was “not that far off being achievable” because it uses technology which have already been developed such as lasers and light sails.
“If you can get to the next star system, we can take up-close photos of the star and the planets around it in a way that we just never even considered being an option.”
US Senate passes bill to boost technology sector, countering China’s influence
The #UnitedStates Senate has passed a $250 billion plan to boost investment in research and #technology, as it tries to counter #China’s growing influence in the sector. The package seeks to shore up development of artificial intelligence and quantum computing, while earmarking more then $50 billion for production of semiconductor microchips. The bill will now be debated by the House of Representatives. China has already responded to the vote, calling the draft law a “paranoid delusion”. #Business

The Hyperloop May Disrupt More Than Just Travel
Elon Musk coined the term Hyperloop back in 2013 when he released his vision for a fifth mode of transport. Since then, engineers around the world have been working to make his idea a reality sooner than you might think. Virgin Hyperloop has successfully tested the technology with human passengers and in Europe, Hardt Hyperloop is working on the technology and international coalition building needed to create entire Hyperloop networks. On this episode of Accelerate, we’ll look at how one Hyperloop track could take passengers from San Francisco to Los Angeles in a half hour, and how Hyperloop networks could redefine the economies of entire continents.
