The world’s cheapest car has been unveiled. India’s Tata Motors presented the “Tata Nano” with a price tag of $2500 during the India’s main auto show. It is about 10 feet long, 5 feet wide. The 2-cylinder petrol engine delivers 33 horsepower and a top speed of just over 60 mph. It is a car with a sloping roof and a snub nose which can fit about five people if they squeezed in it. On the other hand, it has some downsides: first, there is no radio, no air bags, no passenger-side mirror and has only a single windshield wiper. The air-conditioner is only available in the deluxe version.  A lot of people tend to imply that it sacrificed its quality in order to sell it in a cheap price but the manufacturers are confident that it will meet the safety standards and will not contribute to pollution that much. As of now, it is only available in India but plans of exporting it have already been developed. Jamie Leather pointed out though that "The cheaper and cheaper vehicles become, the quicker those pollution levels will increase,”. To know more about it click here…

2007 was a great year indeed, a lot of good things happened. As the year was about to end, I came across a very interesting special of the National Geographic Channel. The title of the documentary was “Outsmarting Terror” and it was all about the different technologies that people have invented to possibly eliminate or lessen terrorism in different situations. I was really amazed because most of the technologies mentioned were really things that I have never heard of. Various technologies were mentioned such as scent detection devices, jetliners that repel heat-seeking missiles, to devices that can save people trapped inside a 50-story building, to robots that detect nuclear weapons, etc. If you haven’t watched the show, check the National Geographic Website to know when they will air the episode/special again…
