One of the major problems with current cybersecurity measures is that while systems can detect the erratic behavior that heralds an incoming attack, there often isn’t a whole lot those systems can do once the attack is underway short of pulling the servers offline, resulting in lost revenues and credibility for Web sites and a loss of key services for users. A new MIT system aims to change that by keeping servers and applications running even as it contains an incoming cyberattack.
The system works by o…

Algae has helped create the atmosphere, played a role in populating the oceans and even produced biofuels so that we might pollute the atmosphere and the oceans a tiny bit less. Now, a team of researchers is coaxing therapeutic pharmaceuticals out of the hardy little organisms, in a process that could eventually produce biologic drugs that are a few orders of magnitude cheaper than existing drugs.
Many biologic drugs — drugs made of proteins — are manufactured in mammalian cell culture or by bacteria …

The landmark Hangar One needs a giant new Teflon skin to replace its toxic siding, but funding is an issue
Hangar One’s behemoth structure once housed airships such as the doomed U.S.S. Macon, and is so large that clouds can supposedly form and rain inside it. Now NASA and the U.S. Navy have promised to replace the hangar’s toxic siding with a new Teflon-covered fiberglass fabric skin, The Register reports.
But that can only happen if NASA can somehow scrape together $15 million to $40 million for the jo…

The future of community bike systems may not require much pedaling at all; Sanyo has just installed two “Solar Parking Lots” that serve as solar charging stations for 100 Eneloop electric hybrid bicycles in Setagaya, Tokyo.
The carbon-neutral bike shelter both charges the bikes and provides low-power LED lighting from solar energy collected by panels on the roof. Based on Sanyo’s own Smart Energy Systems technologies, the panels charge both the lithium ion batteries installed directly on the bicycles as…

Unfortunately for anyone looking to terraform Mars, a new study shows that powerful waves of solar wind periodically strip the Red Planet of its atmosphere. Scientists had known for years that Mars has atmosphere troubles, but only by analyzing new data from he Mars Express spacecraft were they able to identify the special double solar waves as the specific cause.
Double solar waves are a rare phenomenon that result when the Sun emits waves of differing speeds. If a fast wave follows a slow wave, the fa…

Now that it’s been saved by Spyker, Saab has announced that its North American sales and marketing operations will now be based out of Royal Oak, Michigan, a suburb north of Detroit. The move is a short one, from GM’s Renaissance Center offices about 15 miles up Woodward Avenue (Google Maps says taking the 19.2-mile route via I-75 is quicker).
The result, however, is that Saab gets some tax benefits from the city of Royal Oak, Oakland county (Detroit is in Wayne county), and the state of Mich…

Saab's decision to open its North American headquarters in Royal Oak is an important symbolic boost for an area spurned by other automakers — namely Volkswagen in 2007 — and decimated by the downsizing of General Motors Co. and Chrysler Group LLC, analysts say.
