  Scientists Make Quantum System Last 10,000 X's Longer  Source:  University of Chicago Team of Scientists  Big Impact for Quantum Computing & Unhackable Networks A new discovery by scientists at the University of Chicago has the potential of massive technological impact.  Quantum technology promises fabulous possibilities.  But scientists first need to keep quantum systems stay harnessed for more than a few millionths of a second.  The University of Chicago team has done it.  They've invented a means to make quantum systems remain operational 10,000 times longer than before. Future Quantum Internet What they've done could revolutionize quantum computing, quantum communications and quantum sensing.  Their breakthrough to greatly extend quantum system operations could lead to extremely powerful quantum computers and virtually unhackable networks in the future quantum internet.  Immediately, it is enabling new research opportunities pr...

Archaeology Find: Humans in N.A 17K Yrs Before Believed Source:  Mexico Cave Archaeologists Excavated  Big Archaeology Find An incredibly fascinating archaeology discovery.  In a cave in Mexico, archaeologists have found human made stone tools dating back at least 30,000 years.  The scientists found the tools in the massive Chiquihuite Cave in northwestern Mexico.  Two, separate, new archaeological studies date humans living on the North American continent at least 30,000 years ago.  The lead researcher and director of the excavation in the Chiquihuite Cave is Ciprian Ardelean, an archaeologist at the Autonomous University of Zacatecas.   Last Glacial Maximum The discovery means humans were here before the Last Glacial Maximum when ice covered most of the northern US and Canada.  The findings prove that humans were in North America much earlier than previously thought.  In fact, at least 17,000 years earlier than believed. ...
