This month, transit directions have been added to Glass, to complement the existing walking directions. Such information could be tacked onto our Nike Fuelbands and Fitbits,
#Sic transit gloriaas exciting as the plans for direct imaging are, most exoplanets are still found using indirect techniques#such as detecting a wobble in the position of the star that indicates it is being pulled slightly towards an orbiting planet,
"By far the most powerful combination right now is the combination of transit detections and Doppler spectroscopy,
because the odds that any single planet discovered by Doppler will also transit are very low,
and the huge numbers of transit planets discovered by Kepler are all orbiting relatively faint stars
and the Federal Transit Administration has provided $13. 6 million for eight projects to advance the commercialization of American-made fuel cell buses.
when the U s. Department of transportation Federal Transit Administration (FTA) announced close to $25 million in funding towards the effort.
Greening mass transit has been a goal of the FTA for some time now. A previous example of this was the National Fuel cell Bus Program,
such as electric charging stations, for the transit industry. This program successfully committed $90 million over seven years for innovative research, demonstration,
and deployment projects to reduce the cost of fuel cells for transit use. In the push for no emissions buses, a few benefits are seen as being possible.
in the long run, helping transit agencies save money on fuel and maintenance costs. According to the National Renewable energy Laboratory, zero-emission buses can achieve more than double the fuel economy of buses running on diesel and other fuels l

We are pleased that Proterra could share in your city vision to promote a sustainable cost effective transit solution protecting the environment for generations to come. he five oldest trolley buses combined now emit a total of about 1135 pounds of carbon monoxide in a year compared to zero emissions from the all-electric buses.
A water quality sensor to assess water purity has been tested in a laboratory with the intention of being fitted to water-bags in the future to ensure safe and clean delivery after transit.
It transits or passes in front of its parent star every 38 hours which gives scientists an opportunity to study its atmosphere as starlight filters through it.
which data was collected on optical pulsars compact binaries high redshift galaxies and planetary transits. RCONS is very sensitive
and might have you thinking differently about transit.####Skytran, which was developed by Stanford Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering graduate Douglas J. Malewicki,

The system s automated nature, transit expert Joe Dignan told#BBC News, could be a good test of
In addition to encryption in transit and between data centers, which was already in place.)Overall, the improvements are an important indication that Google has given not up on the enterprise.
The ELF built by Organic Transit isn quite as luxurious as the Twike but it a lot cheaper $5495 for the standard model.

The weight of a Twike is almost 4x an ELF so the gains from pedaling
The first of its kind in the United kingdom Bio-Bus is a 40-seat transit vehicle that runs entirely on fuel generated through anaerobic digestion.

I would want it to be in continuous transit so that a nearby delivery person could have it to my house within minutes or a few hours of ordering.
As Stewart noted in her Economist articlethey are following up with modules for transit roads highways and buildings.
Kepler was designed to spot transits the periodic dips in a star's brightness indicating that a planet has passed in front of it.
When a planet transits a star the amount of light it blocks is used to calculate its size.
The treatment, interleukin (IL)- 2 combined with imiquimod and topical retinoid therapy, is a promising option for patients with so-called n-transit metastases.
The new 3d design has slashed the transit time between transistor and memory, and the resulting architecture can produce lightning-fast computing speeds up to 1,
Most were discovered by the traditional transit method which measures the decrease in brightness when a planet orbiting a distant star transits that luminous body moving directly between the Earth
and the star This provides information about the planet's size but not its mass.
We will look at the thousands of potential exoplanets identified by the Kepler satellite telescope by the transit method.
Condo towers crowding city skylines seem to reflect builders'hopes that the grey set will head to urban centres for increased services and better transit options.
No problem for transit riders in Athens The primary goal of a transit system has been to get a rider from point A to point B. Collecting fares has typically been an afterthought,
which is why that process is usually set up for the transit system convenience not the rider.
when using transit. Masabi is known for its comprehensive mobile ticketing platform already in use by 22 transit agencies worldwide.
The partnership with Mastercard will make it even easier for transit customers to pay. Not only are the days of fumbling around for cash over
A transit overhaul in Athens The first city to benefit from the partnership is Athens, Greece,
which has a busy transit system used by 1 million people each day, but does not have a user friendly reputation.
With rare exception, the contactless cards are tied to one particular transit system. Creating a regional card can be challenging
The rechargeable contactless cards used by many transit systems also create two lines: one to get on the bus,
and the transit systems in Boston and San diego, among others m
#IBM Smarter Cities Challenge is back: Could your city use some pro bono problem solvers?
Now think about where mass transit works best--where young people, retirees and even families are able to simply abolish their use of cars.
As young people turn away from cars--a phenomenon so powerful that it has had the marketing departments of car companies running scared for years--they are left with no other option than mass transit,
young people living near transit, in denser communities; and technology lessening the need for a car.
such as the transit of exoplanets across other stars, binary stars that eclipse, gamma ray bursts and so on. Capturing the changes associated with these events requires a much more rapid way of photographing the entire sky.
a simple change that could make it harder for spy agencies to vacuum up huge numbers of communications in transit.
Youngbull envisions use of the device in homeland security, mass transit, public spaces, hospitals, schools, food production and combat theater analytics.
"The Toronto Transit Commission will be rolling out automatic train control in 2017. Keesmaat says that could produce as much as a 20 per cent capacity increase by allowing trains to operate closely together,
When he was recently in Istanbul to do a workshop for transit planners, Litman learned that city is buying a fleet of 400 new buses, all with onboard Wi-fi, USB ports at every seat and bike racks.
#Bridj A Popup Bus That Learns Travelers Habits Boston transportation has a new private transit app that learns the habits
Transit options become streamlined by the app itself. ridj is your everyday transportation system that adapts in real-time to where you live work and play,
Bridj is one of many means in this Boston market of transit services. Third in the country as far as cities not dependent on owning cars for transportation,
Boston is full of transit options. Perhaps Bridj might look at electric vehicles soon. In the world of electric buses, the big name is BYD, a Zayed Future Energy Prize winner,
Public transit, car sharing, Bridj and growing options of transit are all nice. One of the key advantages of electric buses,
and evacuation when local mass transit systems are affected by prolonged power outages, according to HHS officials.
As opposed to mass transit systems, personal rapid transit (PRT) systems use rail networks that frequently branch off the main route.
Proponents of PRT believe that such systems can provide the personal convenience of cars with the dedicated infrastructure of mass transit,

For example, people who plan routes for mass transit systems could use the program to help them come up with the most efficient ways around a city.
