64 Years Later We all know that Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed in August 1945 after being hit by the first atomic bombs.

The matter that's not not not there Astronomers study the motion of stars in galaxies, as they twist and rotate under each other's gravitational attraction. The motion throws up a long-standing puzzle in astrophysics: The way the stars move indicates the presence of a certain amount of matter in the galaxies. But when you count up the matter in the visible stars, there isn't enough. This matter that's "not there" in the visible galaxy is called "dark matter". No one knows what it is. 10 reasons your Wi-Fi speed stinks (and what you can do about it) May 09, 2012, 4:44 PM — The first 801.11ac chipsets are coming soon, but 802.11n is likely to stick around for many years to come -- both in the business world and our homes.
