For those who are not aware, Carrier IQ is a company based in Mountain View, California and provides mobile analytic services for smartphones to the wireless industry. So why is it the news suddenly? A few days ago, Android security researcher Trevor Eckhart discovered Carrier IQ software in one of the HTC devices he was using. He discovered... 

Noah's Ark replica Schagen Netherlands Reports about the traces of the legendary Noah’s Ark appear in the media on a regular basis. The majority of such messages say that there is a mysterious object resting on top of Ararat Mount. The object could be the ancient vessel, on which Noah rescued animals from the Great Flood. Here is what the Bible says about the events, which took place in 2500... 

There’s a state of unease within Nokia at the moment and unsurprisingly so. With the first Nokia-Microsoft lovechild now out in the market (the Lumia 800, you might have heard of it) and an aggressive marketing strategy in place to drum up interest in Windows Phone-laden Nokia’s coming fresh out of the factory, the Finnish company have been waiting with bated breath to see how consumers... 

Atlas 5 rocket carrying NASA's Mars Science Laboratory, Curiosity NASA has launched Atlas 5 rocket carrying the nuclear-powered rover, Curiosity, which is the world`s largest extraterrestrial explorer to Mars. The six-wheeled, one-armed robotic rover left Florida on Saturday at 15:02 GMT, the state-funded BBC reported. The one-ton rover is planned to search Martian soil and rocks for any signs... 

The automatic Fobos-Grunt interplanetary station in assemblage building's pad. Russian space experts are struggling to decode fresh telemetry signals received from the stricken Phobos-Grunt probe. Meanwhile, rumors are circulating that America’s ionosphere research site in Alaska caused the spacecraft’s failure. On Wednesday night, the European Space Agency’s station in Perth, Australia,... 

Russia’s Phobos-Ground interplanetary space station, the connection with which was lost soon after launch on November 9, showed a sign of life. A European station received a signal from the Russian spacecraft on Tuesday night, Gazeta.ru website reports. The ESA’s station in Perth, Australia, made contact with the probe with the link holding from 20:25 GMT to 21:11 GMT, Interfax reports. The... 

Phobos-Grunt probe is doomed to fall Chances of reviving an unresponsive Russian space probe headed for a moon of the Red Planet are now virtually zero. Hopelessly off-course, it is apparently doomed to fall back to Earth, though it is not clear when or where. Fixing the Phobos-Grunt and putting it back on track is now impossible. The probe will not be able to carry out its mission – to land on Phobos... 

The Oscillation Project with Emulsion-Racking Apparatus detector at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory, hosted a fiercely contested experiment that appears to show the accepted speed limit of the Universe can be broken. The speed of light appears to have been broken again after scientists carried out a new set of experiments to test measurements that could require the laws of physics to be rewritten. Scientists... 

New study shows that tumor cells use protein recycling to fuel their growth. A new research carried out on a variety of human tissues, suggests that recycling of protein in the body could be an important part of tumor formation. According to the report published in Science Translational Medicine, researchers found that protein recycling was accelerated in more than 30 types of cancerous cell. Scientists... 

Zeroed in: The weapon, which could look similar to this Falcon HTV-2, left, was fired from Hawaii, glided south westwards through the upper atmosphere over the Pacific at 'hypersonic speed' before hitting its target on the Kwajalein atoll in the Marshall Islands - some 2,500 miles away. A hypersonic flying missile that can strike a target anywhere in the world in just 30 minutes has been unveiled... 

Qualcomm is expanding its Snapdragon lineup – adding chipsets to both the entry-level S1 line and the Krait lineup. Krait is a brand new design that will scale to up to 2.5GHz with one, two or four cores. It promises better power efficiency than current architectures. The S4 badge will be carried only by the best of the best Snapdragon chipsets with Krait CPU architecture and next-gen Adreno... 

Scientists have uncovered evidence of small lakes existing 3km below the crust of Europa. Scientists have uncovered evidence of warmer water melting and fracturing the outer layers beneath the surface of Jupiter’s icy moon, Europa. The information comes from the unmanned Galileo spacecraft, which arrived at Jupiter and its moons in 1995. The results, published in the journal Nature, suggest that... 

New finding points to possible malaria vaccine Scientists say they can use their information about how malaria parasite invades human red blood cells to develop an anti-malaria vaccine. Researchers at the Sanger Institute in Cambridge (UK) pinpointed a single receptor for a protein that is critical for the parasite to gain entry into red blood cells before multiplying and spreading. Blocking the receptor... 

Jumpin' Jupiter: The solar system's largest planet may well have knocked another giant into deep space The consensus among astronomers is that the solar system has always had four giant planets – Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus. But now it’s claimed that it’s much more likely to have been home to a mystery fifth giant planet that got knocked out. Computer simulations by David Nesvorny... 

An ambitious three-year mission to bring back a soil sample from Mars' moon Phobos has been launched by Russian scientists. Spacecraft was to visit Martian moon of Phobos and bring back soil sample but looks like joining list of failed red planet missions. Russia’s probe to the Mars moon Phobos has gone missing soon after takeoff, failing to fire the rockets that would have boosted it out...
