NASA Discovers Tatooine-Like Planet



(From StudioDaily.com -- By Beth Marchant)

NASA announced today that the KEPLER spacecraft, on an exploratory mission since 2009, had discovered the very first planet on record to orbit around two sun-like stars at once.

Sound familiar?

Said Kepler project scientist NICK GAUTIER during a press conference at Ames Research Center, "It’s the best example we have of a Tatooine-like world from STAR WARS. We don’t expect to find LUKE SKYWALKER or anything else living there, but you if you could visit there, you would see a sky with two suns, just like Luke did."

BBC Reporters About To Start Broadcasting Live Using Only An iPhone And 3G Service

(From BBC.com -- By Michael Grothaus)

Within the next month, the BBC is set to roll out an iOS app that will allow field reporters to broadcast live from their iPhone using nothing but the 3G service to carry the data transmission, an article from Journalism.co.uk states.

The app will also allow BBC field reporters to file still photos, video and audio directly into the BBC content management system from any iPhone or iPad.

As Journalism.co.uk points out, the ability to broadcast right from an iPhone would mean that reporters could no longer have to carry cumbersome satellite or codex equipment.

MARTIN TURNER, BBC's head of operations for newsgathering, told Journalism.co.uk, "Reporters have been using smartphones for a while now, but it was never good quality. You might do it when there was a really important story. Now it is beginning to be a realistic possibility to use iPhones and other devices for live reporting, and in the end, if you've got someone on the scene then you want to be able to use them. That capability is a really important one."
