Researchers using the Hubble telescope have spotted a literal shooting star. The adolescent star, which has been blasted out of its nebular nursery, is estimated to be traveling at 400,000 KM/h - which is fast enough to get you to the moon and back in about two hours. The young star could not be reached for comment, but it apparently left a note saying it had set out to ‘find itself.’

Here’s an intriguing video that’s been racking up views on YouTube - it documents the snapping of an electrodynamic satellite tether, which was caused by an electrical surge from the kinetic energy created by the tether! This isn’t even the strange part - as the astronauts track the escaped satellite dozens of strange objects appear and start swarming in all directions.
While NASA, and other “experts” have dismissed the objects as debris their apparently strange movements have not convinced UFO / Alien hunters from claiming a conspiracy! Now that you’ve seen it what do you think?
Its that special time of year where the trees start budding, the snow begins to melt and the birds start singing - and everyone who steps outside takes a big waft of fresh spring air, their brains buzzing with images of summer! To help make your Spring and Summer spectacular we proudly present a special selection we like to call The Gadgets Of Green… (click for more!)
Oh, the good ol’ days where photos weren’t digital and instantly uploaded to Facebook. Rummage through any basement and you’re sure to find boxes upon boxes of old negatives and slides.
It’s time to give them new life with the USB Negative Scanner from Veho Technologies. Simply with the touch of a button, turn those old negatives and slides into digital scans on your computer using a standard USB connection and the included software you can begin sharing those old memories with friends and family in just seconds.
Check out this great review from the Bosch family of Chicago:
“Dear NerdSeven.com, we just want to say a sincere thank you for introducing this product to us and getting it delivered so fast. I don’t want to sound *too* sappy, but we got this just ahead of a big family reunion but were able to scan hundreds of old slides and negatives, some of which hadn’t been seen by anyone for decades and some which had never even been developed. We put together a slide show with the projector and made DVDs for the entire family. With all of our great aunts and uncles, and grandparents (everyone really) there it was such an emotional trip down memory lane. Lots of wet eyes if you know what I mean!!! It was also a real treat to be able to see my parents look at these photos for the first time in such a long time, and all of the grandchildren got to see everyone from years and years ago. Again, thank you thank you thank you so much for just having this product and we will definitely be shopping with you again soon.”
You’re welcome Bosch family, we’re glad you loved the scanner and thanks for sharing!

NerdSeven announces the launch of its newest outpost on the planet Earth. NerdSeven has combed the Multiverse in search of the nerdiest collection of gadgets, gizmos, tech, toys and treats, bringing them to earthlings in one convenient Earthocentric location.
(PRWEB) May 20, 2009 — NerdSeven, the intergalactic retailer specializing in innovative gadgets and tech toys, has announced the launch of its newest outpost, located on the planet Earth in the Milky Way Galaxy. NerdSeven recently received approval from the Intergalactic Trade Federation to begin commercial operations on the little blue planet.
Doing business on Earth means selling to Earthlings - so what are hip and tech savvy humans spending their hard earned money on? Green gadgets. The growing popularity of eco-friendly products and green living on this fascinating planet has dramatically increased in recent years, especially for the young online demographic.
Two of the most popular NerdSeven products are the HYmini Wind Turbine Chargers and Voltaic System’s solar charging backpacks. The HYmini series captures wind and solar energy to charge digital devices such as iPods, mobile phones and digital cameras. With its bicycle mount accessory the HYmini wind chargers are perfect for gadget geeks on the go. The Voltaic Solar Charging bags are also designed for true techies on the trail - embedded with lightweight (but rigid) waterproof solar panels these bags can charge cell phones, cameras and iPods. The Voltaic “Generator” laptop-style bag can even fully charge a laptop in just a few hours.
In addition to these great products, NerdSeven has launched the NerdBucks Rewards Program. Customers earn bonus points with every purchase that can be applied to future orders - just like cash!
If green gadgets and other innovative tech toys are what you are after then beam yourself over to NerdSeven.com - you can also check them out on Facebook and Twitter for daily updates and other amazing out-of-this-world news.
As an added bonus, Facebook and Twitter fans receive 20% off all NerdSeven products for a limited time.
It’s been a nice spring. Warm and sunny, the perfect start to a busy season of camping, outdoor festivities and impromptu barbeques on the beach! But this year, stop lugging around that old, heavy, hand-me-down barbeque and pick up the Fire Bucket BBQ from NerdSeven.
Another hit from the Suck UK design team - a portable fire pit for roasting hot dogs on the beach, or fire it up while you’re catching a ride on a frozen, desolate Arctician asteroid.
Made from enameled steel and weighing just over three pounds this one-time fire bucket (now portable fire pit) is the kind of travel gadget that should become a permanent fixture in your ship’s trunk.
Suitable for cooking with charcoal bricks or chunks of drift wood you find on the beach, the Fire Bucket BBQ from SuckUK will have you cooking gourmet while on your journ’ay.
