YOUR GUiDE T0 THE YEAR IN SCiENCE : 2010


   1. I chose an article about NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory Captures Star Torn Apart by Black Hole. This article talks about an observatory taking a look at a star that has been ripped apart  by an intermediate-mass black hole in space.This falls into the Space category.

   2. I don't really think that it is a big deal to know about this only that I though that it was fascinating to see that stars could actually be ripped apart by a black hole and still exist. Probably in the future the black hole that are formed maybe all of the stars may be ripped apart and then the stars are going to loose the uniqueness, shine and many more extravagant things about them.

   3. Probably nothing is going to occur this year of 2010 but possibly things might occur in the near future.

   4.  I am not quit sure of what were some of the obstacles during the process of while the star was being ripped. 


   1. The next article that i chose was about contact lenses that change color when your glucose levels get higher or drop. This would fall into the nanotechnology category.
   2. I think that this topic is very interesting because for the people who are diacbetic it would be very helpful becuase they would not have to worry about bringing their glucometer with them everywhere.
   3. Probably since this invention is new nothing might not happen to it but i am pretty sure that in the near future something might go wrong with it.
  4. I am not quite sure what were the obstacles and setbacks of this invention.
