The smart bus made by RoboBusLine was initially limited to an experimental vehicle until it was finally approved by the government and in action carried the passengers. As quoted from Carscoops.com (June 17, 2017), noted that the EasyMile EZ10 (the name of the smart vehicle) is now officially on the streets with a speed of 11 km/hour. But now, the vehicle is also operated by human operator in it just in case if at any time there are some technical constraints on the bus.

In addition to Helsinki, the test will also be conducted in the city of Espoo and Tampere in Finland, until finally later the autonomous bus is back in operation after the test is completed. Uniquely, when the smart bus is operating, no bus drivers protest because their position are replaced by the vehicle, the Finns actually combine the two transport facilities with the function to reduce the number of congestion traffic in the country.
With this autonomous bus technology, Finland hopes to more effectively reduce road congestion as well as accidents caused by reckless drivers on the streets. Let's guess, about which country will follow in Finland's footsteps to apply this technology! *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | EASYMILE | CARSCOOPS]

Turned out the Moon was 4.51 billion years old

According to scientists, it turns out the moon was older than previously thought, which is 4.51 billion years old. Thus the latest estimates, thanks to the rocks and soil samples collected by the astronauts of Apollo 14 on the moon.
The study has put the age of the Moon at at least 4.51 billion years — up to 140 million years older than previously thought, according to a new study of minerals called zircons brought back from the lunar body to the Earth by the Apollo 14 mission in 1971. (Picture from: http://adf.ly/1iDSow)
A team of researchers reported on Wednesday, January 11, 2017 that the moon formed within 60 million years of the birth of the solar system. The estimates range from 100 million the previous year, then to 200 million years after the creation of the solar system, instead of the 4.6 billion years ago.

Scientists are calculating the age of the moon by using the uranium-lead zircon metal fragments were extracted from samples of moon taken from the Apollo 14 missions. The pieces of zircon was very small, no bigger than a grain of sand.

"Size does not matter, because the fragments record an incredible information!" said the study's lead author Melanie Barboni from the University of California, Los Angeles. She added that the moon has "so many wonders key to understanding how our beautiful Earth formed and evolved."

Some of the eight samples of zircon has been used in a previous study, also conducted at UCLA. Barboni said that she was learning more zircon samples from the Apollo 14, but she expects it will not change the estimated age of the moon is around 4.51 billion year, at most only be 4.52 billion years old.

As we lall knew, the Apollo 14 astronauts, Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell collected approximately 41.73 kilograms and uses tubes to dig the ground while exploring the Fra Mauro highlands in February 1971. They walk twice on the moon, as a whole for nine hours on the lunar surface.

And this is the second major study of the moon on this week. Earlier, on Monday, Israeli scientists concluded that the moon may have formed from many mini moons. The moon, according to them, are not formed from the massive giant power hit and release the body parts of the Earth, but from a series of smaller collision may have created many moons eventually merge into one.

This giant force theory says that the result of the blow energy forming the moon lava ocean later becomes solid. This solidification age which is now confirmed by the Barboni and her team.

Barboni said like any process of formation of the moon, the result is the compaction of the moon as it is known today. "We finally determine the minimum age of the formation of the moon, however the process," she said. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | SCIENCEDAILY]
