What is most worried scientists soon
1. "Iron Brother: faster, higher, stronger»
In June, in Harbin (China) will host Olympics of humanoid robots. "Humanoid" means that they should have two arms and two legs in appropriate places. Interestingly, the location of the head organizers are not interested, and robots on wheels to the competition will not be allowed. "Piece of iron" will compete in 16 kinds of the program: athletics (running, jumping, and so on. D.), Wrestling, soccer and dancing. There will be another nomination for "best domestic servants." Brothers, our railways will compete in who will make the best cleaning in the apartment and have a health care person.
Olympics holds Harbin Institute of Technology. Announcing the participation of teams from 100 universities in 20 countries. Unfortunately, the Russian universities is their desire to measure their intellectual power not announced.
2. Brothers on reason or competitors
This year will be finalized multi-year program of the Neanderthal genome. These representatives deadlock branch of evolution of man broke away from the common tree of about 200 thousand years ago. And some scholars believe that they were even more "advanced beings than our ancestors at that time." But we still wiser. And the Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology (Germany) completed a research program Neanderthal DNA extracted from bones discovered by archaeologists of our ancient relative. And considering that the human genome modern and Neanderthal man is similar to the 99, 5 percent, it is quite easily possible to clone these extinct "nedolyudey." That's just whether we need competitors on the planet?

3. Shuttle: last flight
In late September, the US space "shuttle" will make its final journey into orbit. And the United States will no longer be possible to launch manned spacecraft. At least until 2015, for which NASA is announcing the appearance of a new generation of spacecraft 'Orion', the planet will be only two powers that could send a man into space: Russia and China.
It was built five shuttles, which began to rise into space since 1981. Later, "Columbia" and "Challenger" burned in flight. The three remaining continue to service the International Space Station.
In September last climb into the sky had the honor of the ship "Discovery". In total it will be 134th family trip shuttles into orbit.

4. Fuel aircraft no longer need?
36-hour flight on an airplane without a gram of fuel is going to make in the summer of this year, the Swiss Bernard Piccard. For the first time in human history, a solar-powered device will be able to fly at night. It's enough energy that accumulates in onboard batteries per day. Wingspan single aircraft almost like a "Boeing 777" - 61 meters, and on top of it is completely covered with solar panels.
And very soon, in February, the water will be launched the world's first catamaran also runs on the energy of our sun. In a double car solar panels cover an area of almost 500 meters. The creators believe that such a ship will be able to make a circumnavigation. If only the sun is not extinguished

5. Hit the table
Even last year, the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna near Moscow started work on the synthesis of element 117 of the periodic table. But there turned out to be a successful experiment, it will become clear only in 2010.
116th element and 118 minutes (until the last in the table. - AM) were obtained for a long time. But their neighbor scientist can not give. In its pure form, it does not occur in the world and can be obtained only in the laboratory. According to scientists, it should have a completely unique and unexpected chemical properties.
Specialists believe that in time they will be able to expand to 150 the Periodic Table of elements.

6. LHC returns
In February, the full capacity should make a favorite toy of physicists in recent years - the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). This particle accelerator located on the border of France and Switzerland - the largest physical device on the planet, the length of its underground circular tunnel nearly 27 kilometers. Scientists plan to break up and colliding protons and heavy ions to previously unimaginable speeds. This will be allocated a huge amount of energy, and it is believed that the experimental data can help prove some still only theoretical conclusions of quantum physics. In practice, it will enable, for example, to understand the mysteries of gravity, or find a hitherto elusive Higgs boson. True, not the fact that the LHC will work. He was supposed to be running a half years ago, but all the time there are some strange damage.
By the way, there are skeptics who say that if the physics of his achieve, at the moment of collision of particles formed by the black hole and our planet will die. We are waiting for the end of the world?

7. Is there life on asteroids
In summer, the capsule will land with the Japanese space probe "Hayabusa" ("Falcon"). Back in 2003 he went to study the asteroid Itokawa. The goal: to help the robot to get the descent soil samples from this space object. The expedition was a very complex: a few crashes when trying to land on an asteroid could result in total loss of the machine. But the problem has been overcome, and the ground will soon be delivered to the Earth. Such in the history of astronautics was not yet.
In the summer, we know exactly what it consists of the Solar System asteroids. It is possible that mankind ever have to produce them minerals.
The scientists also tested the hypothesis that the "controversy of life" in space from planet to planet transferred just for comets and asteroids.
