+ Geoffrey Burbidge, Later career: 1925 births :: 2010 deaths :: English astronomers :: Astrophysicists :: English physicists :: English science writers :: Alumni of University College London
* Later in his career Burbidge refused to accept the Big Bang theory which describes the start of the universe. Quasars are very bright objects with a very high redshift. The Big Bank theorists say that they come from places extremely far away in the universe. But Burbidge thought that quasars come from nearby galaxies, travelling near the speed of light, which explains their redshift. He thought they produced new matter as old matter was destroyed by reactions. | {

+ Blue-baby syndrome: Syndromes
* Blue Baby Syndrome' is an illness. It is also called 'methemoglobinemia'. It begins when a baby drinks water that has a lot of nitrates in it. The baby's digestive system changes the nitrates into nitrites. Nitrites are similar to nitrates. This reaction creates metheglobin, which cannot carry oxygen. This is a problem, because every part of the body needs oxygen to be healthy and to stay alive. If enough metheglobin is formed in the blood, body tissues may not get enough oxygen. This causes the infant's mucous membranes to become blue in color. The baby may have problems with his digestive system, which is in charge of digesting food and getting nutrition out of the food.

Logic gate
* Most logic gates have two inputs and one output.
* A 'logic gate' is an electronic component that can be used to conduct electricity based on a rule. These sources may be two wires or the output of other logic gates. Logic gates are digital components. They normally work at only two levels of voltage, a positive level and a zero level. In the On state, voltage is present. In the Off state, the voltage is at zero. The On state usually uses a voltage in the range of 3.5 to 5 volts. This range can be lower for some uses.
* In the Off state, the voltage is at zero. The On state usually uses a voltage in the range of 3.5 to 5 volts. This range can be lower for some uses. A logic gate is 'on' or active when its rules are correctly met. At this time, electricity is flowing through the gate and the voltage at its output is at the level of its On state. Logic gates are electronic versions of Boolean logic. Truth tables will tell you what the output will be, depending on the inputs.

+ Clock, Keeping time:
* Clocks use different ways to measure time. Clocks need some sort of steady beat or motion to track the change in time. Ancient water clocks worked by the steady movement of water from a container with a hole in the bottom to another container without a hole. Other clocks use pendulums, springs and gears to track the change in time correctly.
