50 best inventions in 2009

Every year, every month, there are countless inventive maniac busy. They may not be able to cure leukemia or send astronauts to Mars, but the impact of their works on reality is also profound. The US Time magazine has recently selected 50 best inventions in 2009. From the future rocket to the small bulb, it brings people no small surprises.

1. ares rockets

Metals do not have DNA and machines do not have genes, but this does not mean that they do not have their own lineages. The Ares 1 launch vehicle is the product of such a good family tree. As the most creative, smartest and coolest invention in the 2009, the Ares 1 launch vehicle made Americans return to the moon, and even the dream of the first Mars landing became possible. As a new generation of manned rocket developed specifically for space shuttle, the Ares rocket will bring a new wave of exploration to outer space.

2. tank tuna

At 8:47 in the morning of March 12th this year, the history of fish changes took place in Lincoln harbor, Australia. A large number of trout tuna began to lay eggs in large numbers. Scientists believe that the number of tuna laid eggs has dropped by 90% since 1950s. Some people are trying to breed and cultivate Pacific Tuna in sea cages. But when it comes to deliberately coaxing the southern tuna to lay eggs in the pond on the shore, clean seas may have finally touched some doorways and at least a glimmer of light.

3. "ten million" bulbs

Just flip the switch, and Philip Electronics will probably bring down the number of electricity bills in the United States. In September this year, in the US energy department's l Grand Prix, the electronics giant from Holland became the first company to compete for the prize of up to 10 million dollars. If the final led energy-efficient light bulb is successfully available, the annual electricity consumption in the United States will be significantly reduced.

4. intelligent temperature controller

One day, Thompson fiddled out an energy center instrument board, which is a small device with a display screen. It also controls the switch of household appliances and regulates the indoor temperature, so that you can master the energy consumption of your home easily. The invention is still in the trial stage, and it is expected that consumers will be able to buy it in the market by 2010.

5. "body control" game

This year, Microsoft Corp showed their latest technology, Project Natal technology. This technology uses several special cameras, and a microphone and corresponding software to make people use their body and voice control game to become a reality. It is learnt that in the future, players can play games by running, jumping and kicking as long as they are placed on the top and bottom of the TV.

6. instant transfer

Earlier, scientists at the University of Maryland had made a revolutionary step in trans space transmission (instant transfer). It is reported that scientists successfully transmitted two separated atoms to 1 meters away. Since this experiment did not achieve instantaneous transfer of human body, it was only the transfer of two atoms. Therefore, this experiment can only be regarded as a prototype of transient transfer.

7. largest telescope in the world

In May this year, the European Space Agency successfully launched the world's largest far-infrared telescope, "Herschel". "Herschel" is a large infrared space telescope built by the European Space Agency. As the "cornerstone" project of space science, "Herschel" is the most complex spacecraft developed by the European Space Agency.
