Uniting the Light Spectrum on a Chip

Focused laser-like light that covers a wide range of frequencies is highly desirable for many scientific studies and for many applications, for instance quality control of manufacturing semiconductor electronic chips. But creating such broadband and coherent light has been difficult to achieve with anything but bulky energy-hungry tabletop devices. Now, a Caltech team led by Alireza Marandi, a professor of electrical engineering and applied physics at Caltech, has created a tiny device capable of producing an unusually wide range of laser-light […]

Voyager 1 Celebrates 48 Years in Space; Pasadena’s JPL Marks Historic Milestone

NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena is celebrating the 48th anniversary of Voyager 1’s launch, commemorating nearly five decades of pioneering interstellar exploration led from Southern California. Launched on Sept. 5, 1977, from Cape Canaveral, Florida, Voyager 1 was originally tasked with studying Jupiter and Saturn. Today, it remains the most distant human-made object in space, traveling about 15 billion miles (25 billion kilometers) from Earth — and it’s still revealing secrets from the space between the stars, according to […] http://dlvr.it/TMwtDc
