ID24 is a new powerful laser capable of
imitating the earths core. It creates insane pressure and
temperature to mimic the earths core. It is capable of acting on
very small particles of matter to study what will happen to elements
like copper when put to the test. By May 2012, the beamline will be
sold around the world for approximately 150 million. This is a huge
breakthrough for science as a cheaper solution to beam technology as
well as possibilities for testing elements. For students, this is an
excellent article to show them the new technologies emerging. This
could be job stimulation as well as an interesting read. As for me,
I remember my driving force throughout highschool was the dream of
someday working for Nvidia making graphics cards. I have since
changed that dream but it was still fun to research and I got much
better grades then I would have if I hadn't intended on being a
computer scientist. Dreams drive students and we should look for
articles like this to give them direction, career aspirations, or
even just a critical thinking read.
