Flash technology has gone a long way from simple vector animations. Today it has support for video and audio, 3d rendering and interaction, all kinds of advanced data visualization libraries, great components of all shapes, sizes and purposes. What caught my eye lately is that there is a lot of 2D and 3D Physics engines being added to the list.

Physicists discover 'doubly strange' particle Physics and Numbers Physicists of the DZero experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have discovered a new particle made of three quarks, the Omega-sub-b (?b). The particle contains two strange quarks and a bottom quark (s-s-b).

Forget "pretend" black holes in optical cables: astronomers at MIT have taken the highest-ever resolution imagery of the region of space near the giant black hole at the center of our galaxy, as shown in this image.

Air Speed Velocity of Various Objects According to Monty Python Conspicuously absent is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow (African and European both missing). Fortunately, that can be found here.

From Google Maps to Gold Medal Kristin Armstrong, who won gold in the Women’s Individual Time Trial in Road Cycling, got a GPS track when she rode the Beijing Olympic course in December of 2007 After returning home to Boise, Idaho, I exported the GPS data to several different formats, one of which I was able to launch with Google Earth.
