Australian laser system to track space junk

An Australian company said it had developed a laser tracking system with very high precision so that it can predict whether there are going to be collisions with other objects or not. It can measure down to a little half-a-millimetre fleck of paint. As it travels at the speed of 30,000 Km/h, it can damage a satellite in the Earth’s orbit. The technology had been developed with 3.5 millions US dollars granted from Austrian government. It’s said that it would work best with a network of tracking stations placed at strategic points around the world.

Human curiosity simulate people to know many things even in the space, but they do not realize about problematic inside earth or closely problems. Same as in Thai, Thai adolescences know many things so for from them, but do not know about their own country. Most of Thai teenager would really like to copy many things from Korean's and American's fashoins, tredition, or even culters. They are not confident in Thai cultures.

The Xavier College boys from Australia stole ski clothing and souvenirs worth around $5,000 from at least seven distinct shops in Queenstown on the last day of their trip to New Zealand. It has become evident after a shop worker became suspicious and followed the boys to their bus. The bags were searched, items located and things started to unfold from there. Police let off the boys, aged between 14 and 17, with a warning, but their details have been passed on to immigration authorities. The boys split up in to smaller groups and it appears the thefts were premeditated. The school has suspended all of the students participated in the thefts.

This is an essential and international problem that need it to be figured out. There are so many Thai children become criminals because they lack of teaching from governments and their families. I think governments and families should pay more attention on them especially give them knowledge about severity of crime.

Katsidis maintained his WBO interim lightweight boxing world title with the win. His performance was so impressive as it performed both his patience and power. Mitchell, 25, started the fight working off a solid left jab. Katsidis, 29, caught the challenger's attention with a couple of flurries of power punches. He then caught Mitchell in the third round. Mitchell fought back but he couldn't stop a big impact from Katsidis that coming forward. Katsidis landed the decisive left hook that injured by stunned Mitchell. English referee Dave Parris intervened. It was the American-based Katsidis's second big win in Britain. Katsidis improved his professional record to 27-2 with 22 KOs. Mitchell, the longest winning streak in British professional boxing, suffered his first loss following 31 victories, 23 by KO.

Boxing are one of popular sports. Many people in every single community prefer to watch boxing because it is one of the Thai martial arts. There are many excellent boxer in Thailand, and some of them often have fights oversea such as Australia. Thai boxers can beat Australians many time even though Thais are smaller and shorter.

Scientist Discovered Bizarre Deep Sea Creatures

Credit click: Frillingshark, unknown

Australian scientists have discovered some deep sea creatures community below the Great Barrier Reef, the University of Queensland said on Wednesday. Ancient “ six-gilled” shark, giant oil fish, and many unidentified fish were found in the depths of ocean below 1,400 meters (4’593 feet) .

Justin Marshall and his team members appropriately used special light sensitive, remote controlled camera that sat on the ocean floor below the Osprey Reef to catch the deep sea creatures’ pictures, and they got a picture of relative of the octopus that they have lived for a millions of years. The cameras can now record the behavior and life in Australia’s largest biosphere deep sea, but they cannot specify what life is down there.

Learning these creatures’ primitive eyes and brain help neuroscientists understand human vision well. Moreover, analyzing and learning these creatures help researcher understands brain disorders.

In recent weeks, the United States debates the drilling for oil in increasingly deeper affects the wells in the Gulf of Mexico. Some marine biologists say that we should not be drilling for oil at such depths to protect the deep sea creatures.

In my opinion, I think Thailand should be interested in deep sea creatures issue as well especially in the southern part of Thailand where it is connected to the sea. Moreover, Thailand has so many principal resources that are deserved to be discovered and given precedence to these things like Mashall's speech " If you go down that deep, you are going to find new species".
