Germans clock the perfect time
German engineering has set the bar higher once more. Physicists in Germany have developed the most precise timepiece ever in the world. It's being called an optical single-ion clock - a new atomic clock that records time on the basis of movements of ytterbium ions. The superaccurate clock works by measuring the vibrational frequency of the ytterbium ions as they oscillate a staggering trillions times per second between two different energy levels.
Grass is the answer to ultra thin condoms
Coastal grass can help make thinner condoms. A group of researchers at the University of Queensland have made this unique discovery in their efforts to make the rubber thinner by the micron. They have found out that a component of spinifex, a coastal grass common in Australia and the Middle East can help in reducing the thickness of condoms. How? By adding nanocellulose that's produced by spinifex to rubber. Condoms manufactured thus will be able to withstand up to 20 percent more pressure and can expand about 40 percent more than regular condoms.
EU issues deadline to Athens in attempts to stem migration
Athens has been given a one month deadline by European Union authorities to scale up living conditions for asylum seekers. This move is seen as aimed to send more refugees back to Greece, part of EU's efforts to handle one of the biggest refugee crisis since the second world war. A set of instructions have been issued to Athens that include making improvements in living conditions and restructuring judicial procedures to ensure refugees also have a right to appeal if they wish. Greece prime minister, Alexis Tsipras, however has warned against such a massive influx of refugees saying his country, which is reeling under high unemployment rates & austerity measures, may not be able to handle it.
