The integrated circuit (IC) has a rich history that started over 64 years ago with the creation of the first transistor. Although crude by today’s standards, the first point-contact transistor was almost elegant in its mixing of triangular and circular geometric shapes. What followed were rapid incremental innovations, such as the first junction transistor, the actual IC, planar IC, MOSFET, operational amplifier, memory of various types, and then the earliest microprocessors. A few of these innovations were considered technical achievements but market failures. For example, the first 16-bit...

NATO Op Sea Guardian underway in central Mediterranean NATO has started its second focused maritime patrol of 2021 in the Mediterranean. As part of Operation Sea Guardian (OSG), vessels and aircraft from Greece, Croatia, Italy and Turkey will patrol the central Mediterranean to enhance maritime situational awareness, deter terrorism and build the capacity of navies from the region. Specifically, this NATO’s maritime security operation gathers the flagship Hellenic Navy frigate Salamis and the Croatian Navy missile boat Dubrovnik, supported by aircrafts and submarines from Greece, Italy an...

Photo: Boeing The U.S. Space Force said on Feb. 17 that its Space and Missile Systems Center’s (SMC) Wideband Global Satcom (WGS) Mitigation and Anti-Jam Enhancement (MAJE) program has demonstrated the geo-location of jamming signals. SMC said that it conducted three system tests — virtually, due to COVID-19 restriction — in the final quarter of last year. The tests verified MAJE system design and the system’s ability “to provide telemetry and successfully locate signals interfering with WGS satellites” for the 10 Boeing WGS satellites, per SMC. “With the support of MAJE prime...

Space Force says new anti-jamming upgrade coming in 2022 An artist's rendering of a Wideband Global SATCOM satellite. (U.S. Air Force) WASHINGTON — The Space and Missile Systems Center completed three virtual tests of a new anti-jamming capability for satellite communications in the final months of 2020, the center announced Feb. 17. The mitigation and anti-jam enhancement program will provide advanced anti-jamming support for Wideband Global SATCOM, which provides satellite communications to American war fighters around the world. Once operational, the capability will allow the WGS cons...

Let's talk about the recovery for vice-president dick cheney, what are his chances of a normal life. >> and let's talk about the tactful fact tactffact, this mas made of steel, i've got to tell you, first of all, and aside getting away from the political problems and everyone making fun of him for shooting people he's had bypass, angioplasty, a ventricular assist device. he's had a pacemaker, defibrillator, an aneurysm in his leg and he moves on. >> and here is the-- >> well, we have some video. he was on sean hannity's show talking about that electronic device that you're referring to and to ...
