AT&T just made a $1.25 billion bet on 5G Posted: 10 Apr 2017 05:30 PM PDT 5G connectivity is coming, which is good news for anyone who's ever wanted to stream multiple things in 4K while sitting in a treehouse. All the major mobile companies are currently jockeying for position as to who gets to post "First!" in the comments section, and AT&T just put the stakes up. AT&T spent $1.25 billion to acquire Straight Path Communications, a company that holds significant wireless spectrum that could be used for 5G. AT&T made the deal using all stock, meaning it hasn't had to deplete cash reserves, but don't let that fool you: this is a significant investment in wireless technology for the company.
The spectrum Straight Path holds is millimeter wave-band, which is widely viewed as being critical for delivering gigabit speeds for 5G. For the wireless carriers, 5G opens up the potential to replace cable companies as the major supplier of home internet. While digging up streets to install fiber lines is expensive, time-consuming, and lends itself to regional monopolies, using wireless connections to get internet to the home has major promise. Google has reportedly already begun testing wireless transmission in place of its Google Fiber home internet service, and it's definitely on everyone's mind. 5G would undoubtedly be a big upgrade over 4G for wireless devices, and that's where the initial focus will be. But if carriers can build out networks that are big and stable enough, it's a lot more than just wireless plans that will be on the line. |

Scientists are going to drill deeper into the Earth than ever before Posted: 10 Apr 2017 02:34 PM PDT It might come as a bit of a surprise, considering we walk around on it all day long, but science hasn't really ever seen fit to find out what's inside of our planet. Thanks to volcanic eruptions we know it's a molten mix of various elements, with the pressure of gravity having turned it into an extremely hot liquid stew, but what exactly it is made of has remained a mystery simply because nobody has ever had the right combination of funding and technology to actually drill deep enough to make a solid conclusion. By 2030, Japan wants to be the first to do it, by digging deeper into Earth than anyone ever has before.
The plan, cooked up by the Japanese Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology — JAMSTEC for short — is to send an extremely long drill rig down through the depths of the ocean and straight through the crust. The drill will splash through nearly 2.5 miles of water before hitting rock, at which point it'll still have nearly 4 miles to bore through before it reaches the mantle. The researchers will use the hole to examine the area between the mantle and the ocean floor to get a better sense of exactly how the crust of our planet formed. Scientists also hope to determine the maximum depth into the crust at which microbial life continues to exist, and to take samples of the mantle in order to figure out its composition. The expedition will be carried out by Japan's deep sea drilling rig called Chikyu, and JAMSTEC plans to start the extremely pricey project — it'll cost over half a billion dollars — by 2030 at the absolute latest. |
