Pond can lead to ‘disasters’ and have ‘catastrophic consequences’

A planning committee has heard that a controversial planning application for a pond that had already been created without permission could lead to a “disaster” and have “catastrophic consequences”. Its development and subsequent application have been opposed by thousands of people. Art dealer Barnes Thomas, who featured in Bear Grylls’ show The Island, has applied … Read more

Scientists prove ‘quantum theory’ that could lead to ultra-fast magnetic computing

A futuristic image of a computer chip

For the first time, scientists have magnetized a non-magnetic material at room temperature, creating a quantum property that they say could pave the way for ultra-fast computing. The ‘switchable’ magnetic field could one day be used to store and transmit information. This was something that was previously only possible at ultra-cold temperatures. The results pave … Read more
