A family of Swiss satellites will clean the debris

|

Geneva, 15 feb (EFE).-A family of satellites “cleaners” Swiss will be responsible for removing pieces of space junk orbiting Earth and pose a threat to satellites and spacecraft, which can collide. La school Polytechnique Fédérale of Lausanne (Switzerland) announced today the launch of the first satellites desorbitadores, the CleanSpaceOne, which aims to launch a set of specially designed for this purpose satellites into space in the next three years. At least 16,000 objects of more than ten centimeters in diameter and hundreds of millions of small particles orbiting at speeds of Vertigo around the Earth in many cases filing in the history of artificial satellites or space ships and threatening physical integrity. These Galactic debris are mostly large remnants of rockets, old satellites already in disuse or components of space assets, such as speckles of dust or pieces of painting. The collision of a spacecraft or a satellite with this waste can be a serious and expensive to repair damage, as well as the generation of more fragments that accrue around the Earth in the form of debris. Astronaut and Professor of the school Polytechnic Federal of Lausanne Claude Nicollier claimed the need to “be careful” to space debris by the risks involved and their proliferation. The process through which these space sweepers desorbitarán garbage starts with the launch of satellites to between 630 and 750 kilometers of height...

The UCO power local solutions to climate challenges in Latin America

|

Córdoba, 15 feb (EFEAGRO)-A project led by the University of Córdoba (UCO) aims to provide local solutions to environmental and climatic challenges in Latin America, combining scientific knowledge and local communities of Colombia, Mexico and Argentina. The Director of the Secretariat for the training of researchers of the UCO, Mary of the sea Delgado, today unveiled at press conference in Cordoba the project, called “Comet – the”, an initiative in network with a budget of EUR 2 million and involving also seven – four European and three American – research institutions, three NGOs Colombia, Mexico and Argentina, and the Spanish Committee of IUCN. According to Delgado explained, the research will last three years and aims to analyse social and human climate change from a local scale, that so far have not been as thorough study. How society can address these issues and how can manage will be some of the most relevant questions to try and resolve the researchers, he has detailed. The Colombia project will address the problem of water management and biodiversity in this country, deepening in the capacity of access to natural resources or the overexploitation of these. Furthermore, the initiative of Mexico will take place in a State in the South of the country and delve deeply into sustainable management of forests and land use models.

Agreement between the EU and the us on trade in organic products

|

Brussels (Reuters) – an agreement announced on Wednesday to allow articles produced organically and that they have been certified in Europe or United States are sold as organic in both regions to boost transatlantic trade in the sector of food expected, authorities said. The agreement of mutual recognition by the two world’s largest producers of organic products comes into force in June and aims to increase the market access of farmers and organic exporters in both regions reducing cost and bureaucracy. “We hope that a growth there is in trade as a result of this agreement,” Kathleen Merrigan, Deputy of United States agriculture, told Reuters in a telephone interview Wednesday. “We believe that this is extremely positive for the organic market, consumers and farmers alike”. According to the agreement, products such as meat, cereals and wine who receive organic certification in a region can be labelled and sold automatically as organic in the other. The agreement covers all agricultural products, as well as fish and seafood, but excludes any article using antibiotics during its production, which means that some beef produced in the EU and apples and pears American will not met requirements. Dacian Ciolos, European Commissioner for agriculture, “Try to prove that not we will block your negotiations of this great deal only for specific things,” told Reuters. The global market of organic products was valued at 45...

The lack of drinking water increases the maternal and infant mortality, says a study

|

Toronto (Canada), 14 feb (EFE).-the lack of drinking water and sanitation services multiplies the maternal and child mortality, according to the first study that quantifies the difference between living in a country with adequate systems and the most needy. The report by Canadian researchers and which appears in the latest edition of the journal Environmental Health, 193 countries divided into four groups. Data from the study State that the countries in the less secure group in terms of drinking water have 4.7 more deaths for every 1,000 children that all countries with better water treatment systems. Similarly, the differences in terms of sanitation services are significant. Countries located in the lowest group are 6.6 times more deaths for every 1,000 children when compared with countries in the first group. And in terms of maternal mortality, those deaths that occur in the period of one year after the birth of a baby, Canadian scientists discovered that the odds of mortality are 42 per cent higher in countries with worse quality of drinking water. When health services is examined, the odds of mortality increase 48% in those countries with worst systems. According to data from the UN, more than 800 million people do not have access to safe drinking water and some 2.7 billion people are without access to sanitation in the world. In addition, the World Health Organization (who) estimates...

They discover a low microbial oasis the Atacama desert

|

low (www.neomundo.com.ar/_SINC) the driest desert on Earth bulle life. A hispano-chileno team of scientists has discovered bacteria and Archaea (primitive organisms) living at 2 meters deep in the Atacama desert, in Chile, hypersaline substrates according to published in the journal Astrobiology. “What we have called ’microbial oasis’ because we are micro-organisms in a Habitat rich in halite (salt) and other compounds (anhydrite and perchlorate) highly hygroscopic, i.e., trapping water”, explains Victor Parro, researcher at the Center for Astrobiology (INTA-CSIC) and coordinator of the study. In addition, substrates where they live microbes also favor phenomena of nerfs, implying that they can attract the little moisture in the air and to focus around the salt crystals. Thus form a tiny films of liquid water with a thickness of a few microns. Water and food in the desert Grow underground microbes with everything they need to live in this environment: water and food. Species are not very different from other similar hypersaline environments, but the peculiar is having discovered to between 2 and 3 meters depth, in the absence of oxygen and sunlight. To do research scientists have used an instrument called SOLID (Signs of LIfe Detector), a detector of signs of life developed by the team with the aim of being able to use in future missions to Mars. The DETECTOR is SOLID The heart of SOLID is a biochip –...
