Airbus Defence and Space to build JUICE spacecraft, ESA's next life-tracker inside the Solar System
Airbus Group - July 20, 2015 - The European Space Agency (ESA) has selected Airbus Defence and Space, the world's second largest space company, as the prime contractor to develop and build the JUICE (JUpiter ICy moons Explorer) spacecraft. JUICE is the first large mission of the ESA Cosmic Vision programme, with a launch date in 2022. JUICE is the first European mission to Jupiter; its overarching theme is the emergence of habitable worlds around gas giants. JUICE will investigate the Jupiter system, with a focus on its icy moons and the possibly ocean-bearing worlds of Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. The mission will study the moons addressing two key themes: what are the conditions for planet formation and the emergence of life. Airbus Defence and Space is prime contractor for the JUICE spacecraft, building-on the expertise developed on their sites in Toulouse (France), Friedrichshafen (Germany), Stevenage (UK) and Madrid (Spain).

Boeing's 10th GPS IIF to Modernize Worldwide GPS System
Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla., USA - July 15, 2015 - The 10th Boeing (NYSE: BA) GPS IIF satellite has reached orbit and sent its first signals after being launched earlier today. This satellite advances the U.S. Air Force's modernization program for GPS, improving accuracy and enhancing security for the navigation system used by millions of people around the world every day. The Boeing-built GPS IIFs are the newest generation of GPS satellites, delivering a longer design life, greater accuracy, increased signal power for civil applications, a more robust military M-code signal and variable power for better jamming resistance. The IIFs also are outfitted with the new civilian L-5 signal which, when fully operational, will be used for emergency applications.

BMW Group and TOTAL will take forward the development of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles
Munich, Germany - July 16, 2015 - It is now possible to drive by fuel cell-powered car all the way from southern Germany to Lake Garda in Italy. The opening of the hydrogen station in Munich's Detmoldstrasse completes the European HyFIVE project's South Cluster, which comprises Stuttgart, Munich, Innsbruck and Bolsano. Since fuel cell electric vehicles are particularly suited to longer-distance trips, they are the ideal complement to the BMW i models, and to the future plug-in hybrid production models from the BMW brand, which will be based on the already proven eDrive technology. The fuel cell converts the gaseous hydrogen in the vehicle's fuel tank into electricity and water. Since the high-voltage battery only serves as a power buffer, a much smaller and lighter battery can be used than on a battery-electric vehicle.

IBM Research Alliance Produces Industry's First 7nm Node Test Chips
Albany, N.Y., USA - July 09, 2015 - An alliance led by IBM Research (NYSE:IBM) today announced that it has produced the semiconductor industry's first 7nm (nanometer) node test chips with functioning transistors. The breakthrough, accomplished in partnership with GLOBALFOUNDRIES and Samsung at SUNY Polytechnic Institute's Colleges of Nanoscale Science and Engineering (SUNY Poly CNSE), could result in the ability to place more than 20 billion tiny switches - transistors - on the fingernail-sized chips that power everything from smartphones to spacecraft. To achieve the higher performance, lower power and scaling benefits promised by 7nm technology, researchers had to bypass conventional semiconductor manufacturing approaches. Among the novel processes and techniques pioneered by the IBM Research alliance were a number of industry-first innovations, most notably Silicon Germanium (SiGe) channel transistors and Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography integration at multiple levels.

Powerful Solar Charger and Power Bank for Laptop from Sandberg
Birkeroed, Denmark - June 26, 2015 - By now, the market is not short of back-up batteries, with a couple of solar panels on their back to boost power on the go. Previous models really were only to be seen as a supplement to the normal back-up battery usage. Sandberg has turned this on its head with the new Sandberg Solar Power Bank XL. It does not quite go into your pocket with ease, but on the other hand the US manufactured solar panel does provide an impressive 5W when placed directly in sunlight. This provides efficient battery charging and fantastic range expansion. It even has an in-built 5000 mAh buffer battery that can be charged by sunlight or via an USB charger. The Power Bank XL angle is adjustable, making it possible to always get the best position relative to the sunlight.
