NASA wants to have a base on the moon

In many science fiction movies can be viewed human bases built on other planets. Obviously, they are movies, but one of NASA's plans to have a base outside the Earth could become a reality. The space agency has known his own plans for moon base.
Obviously this is not the first time someone has these plans. The space agencies of Russia and Japan have had similar ideas in the past, but never carried out.
NASA plans do not involve actually building a base in the natural satellite of our planet, but it really is planned is to put some kind of spacecraft in lunar orbit. Within this kind of vehicle / station astronauts will live and some will be the launching point for future space missions to Mars.
The position of the ship would be adapted so that the gravitational effect is minimal and would save a lot of fuel. NASA hopes to launch in 2017 or so.

Since Google acquired YouTube for many years it is believed that most of the big decisions are made ​​by Google portal, which is not always the case. What is certain is that when a YouTube video causes great controversy, the first defendant is always the Internet giant.

BlackBerry 10, also known as RIM El Salvador, is the operating system that the company plans to launch in a few months. Not much is known about it, because RIM has preferred to remain silent, but recently we have found out some other details.
Al seems, using BlackBerry devices 10 will have an app native Facebook as revealed in yesterday. Obviously this application is similar to that can be found in iOS and Android devices so as to maintain uniformity. It is 100% integrated with the operating system and uses the new interface Flow.
In addition to the application for Facebook, there will be native applications for LinkedIn, Twitter and Foursquare.
Moreover, it seems that the team that made the presentation RIM did not look very excited, which is understandable given the state where the company is today.
We hope to have more news soon.

A look at the architecture of Apple A6: unique design, 3 GPUs and manufactured by Samsung

t's no secret that Apple and Samsung are being very badly. The first was that the second one will have to pay $ 1 billion dollars, but the second seems not to care and instead launches videos like this mocking iPhone fans to step 5 and propaganda makes the Galaxy S3. And yet, despite the mutual contempt that have both companies, we will find the technology of Samsung in the iPhone 5.
If you're somebody who really are interested in knowing the components of your phone and not content simply to determine the frequency and amount of processor cores, then you probably know that the A5 processor found in the iPhone 4S was created by Samsung as well as the chip A5X incorporating the new iPad / iPad 3. Things are clear: it is only good business, as would Lord Cutler Beckett. If not so, Samsung would not bother again be Apple supplier, and this time with A6 chips for the new iPhone 5.
If your eye had an appreciation of a microscope, what you see in the picture is what you'd find in the A6 processor. This is a measuring matrix bit long and 9mm wide. If you are not an expert on processors, like I do, then do not worry, because the interesting parts are marked in yellow, which clearly shows the portion of the dual-core ARM and the three GPUs.
As you will notice at first glance, the design of the dual-core and GPU is quite different, when normally look a bit. This is because the portion of the core has been worked by hand, which is extremely rare today, but this way Apple has achieved a great power for its new smartphone without draining the battery quickly.
Why design this by hand? It certainly takes longer and is a more expensive process, but it is clear that the benefit is to improve the performance. Another possible theory is that Apple ran into problems when he was developing the iPhone 5 and not to delay the departure date had to opt for manual labor. In any case, this resulted in an estimated processor is twice as fast as its predecessor.

No doubt Apple has realized this and that is why you are looking to hire ex-developers of Google Maps to help you improve your app maps.

Al looks like one of these people is being offered a salary of $ 85,000 and will pay all expenses that have to do with your move. It seems that the Cupertino company is quite desperate.
