Science continues to move forward. New discoveries are shocking and eye-opening to be a milestone in human civilization. The first thing that fantasy has become a reality, as well as discoveries are increasingly aware that there is One who is Great as a source of life.
Some things we know for example that should be exposed to 8 list below.
1. Ununseptium
Unuseptium which temporarily named Element 117 is a combination of isotopes of berkelium and calcium were created by scientists in Dubna, Russia. Physicists say that this element could show the "island of stability", where the heaviest element that can last for months.
The element with atomic number 117 is made by bombarding 249Bk with calcium ions in the JINR cyclotron U4000 for 150 days contained in Dubna.
The whole process takes no more than 320 days which is the half-life of the element Bk (150 days in the cyclotron + analysis + data reviewed by the research team) has finally managed to produce 6 atoms Ununseptium. Each of the six atom then decays by emitting alpha particles into atoms of element 115 and then 113 to essentially split into two atoms are more stable.
2. Genes Cause Aging
Humans have regenerative cells of the body, can continue to update the numbers. But the cause of the aging puzzle menjad attention of scientists. In genetics, it turns out there are elements of the cause we can not stay young forever.
And there are some people who look old faster. What is this? Geneticists have found that it was caused by the act of TERC gene. The gene determines the length of telomeres, which are a kind of cap on the end of chromosomes.
The person carrying the gene will tend to experience more rapid aging because telomeres will shorten faster. People who carry one copy of the gene, for example, would look similar to the old people 3-4 years older than him. Research on the TERC gene was published in the Journal of Genetics.
3. Extra Solar Planets
The researchers found that there are a lot of planets outside the solar system. One is the HIP 13044b planet discovered by astronomers from Indonesia, Johny Setiawan. The planet is actually an extra solar planet but get into the Milky Way. The discovery of extra solar planet is the existence of seven planets orbiting the star HD 10180.
Meanwhile, the discovery of other planets is Gliese 581g is also stunning, extra solar planet orbits its star at a distance said that was not too hot or cold, as the Earth orbits the sun. Pawned-pawn some of the planet so the purpose of man instead of the earth.
4. The discovery of Metamaterial
This discovery was made by Professor Martin McCall and Imperial College, London. Metamaterial can be made to say "stir" the flow of electromagnetic energy. light that passes through the metamaterial will be scattered unevenly, forming a gap between space and time. In connection with the metamaterial, can see in the article tools penyusut artificial objects-china
5. Muons
Scientists say that the amount of matter and anti-matter produced before the big bang should be different. Only difference is what allows the creation of the universe. Previously, the difference was only possible in theory.
Experiments at the Fermilab particle found that muons (sub atomic particles such as electrons) generated has the advantages of 1% anti-muons. Muons and anti-muons difference that it is not too much. However, scientists say that the amount was enough to spur the creation of the universe.
6 .Months More Than Wet Sahara

The mission of the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) successfully discovered the existence of water on the moon is surprising. The water contained in the moon's south pole are in the form of ice mixed with other materials. The researchers said, the ice can be processed into pure water. And there are more than water in the Sahara Desert.
7. The Pyramids of Teotihuacan in Mexico
The archaeologists who examined the Pyramids of Teotihuacan managed to find a 12 foot wide corridor complete with roof. With the invention of the corridor, the archaeologists hope to find out the way to the funeral of the rabbi or religious leader in the Mexico civilization.
8. The discovery of Australopithecus sediba
Scientists have found fossils of Australopithecus sediba, an early human species in the region of Malapa, South Africa. The fossil is thought to have come from the past 2 million years ago. The palaeontologist suspect, is related to the fossils of Homo erectus fossils that are evolutionarily evolved into Homo sapiens or modern humans.
