What is Asbestos?
Asbestos refers to a set of six naturally occurring fibrous minerals. Asbestos has six primary sub-classifications: chrysotile, crocidolite, amosite, anthophyllite, tremolite, and actinolite. Among these, chrysotile and amosite asbestos are the most common.
Although asbestos fibers are microscopic in ... | <urn:uuid:464c582c-02c1-4d45-950a-3115b8dcfa65> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.mesothelioma.com/asbestos-cancer/what-is-asbestos.htm | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783394605.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154954-00082-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.933454 | 909 | 3.8125 | 4 |
Physicists have developed a new type of circuit that is little more than a puff of gas dancing in laser beams. By choreographing the atoms of this ultracold gas to flow as a current that can be controlled and switched on and off, the scientists have taken a step toward building the world’s first “atomtronic” device.

If there is life on Mars (or, more probable in my opinion, on Saturn's moon Titan) and it is carbon-based, then it most likely (almost positively) will be microbial.

From as long ago as the 1980s, the storage and playback media of choice for audiophiles have been the audio CD and - for die-hard hi-fi enthusiasts - an even older technology, the vinyl long-playing (LP) record.
