unexpectedtech: I’m Zac Manchester, a graduate student in Aerospace Engineering at Cornell University. Over the last several years a few collaborators and I have designed, built, and tested a very tiny and inexpensive spacecraft called Sprite that can be built and launched into low Earth orbit for just a few hundred dollars each! My goal is to bring down the huge cost of spaceflight, allowing...

10 billion bits of data per second →
smarterplanet: Developed by Jelena Vuckovic, associate professor of electrical engineering at Stanford University, and Gary Shambat, a doctoral candidate in electrical engineering, the nanoscale light-emitting diode (LED) can send data at 10 billion bits per second. Vuckovic had earlier this year produced a nanoscale laser that was similarly efficient and fast, but that device operated only at...
