Winter coats are removed inside Tatura’s new multi-million dollar greenhouse. The temperature is 28 degrees Celsius and smells of 150,000 stems of tomato plants. Key points: Greenhouse tomato grower expands operations in Tatura A 6-hectare greenhouse will create 60 new jobs The company has been financially supported by the Victorian government The new six-hectare greenhouse will produce 4,000 tonnes of tomatoes per year and create 60 new jobs for the site. Flavorite chief executive Mike Nichol said, due to high demand for the product, the company will expand in four Victoria locations. “We have one here in Tatura, one in Katunga, Mansfield and our base in Warragul,” he said. “Warragul is the biggest at the moment, but in Katunga we have room for another 30 hectares. “We have space to house three other greenhouses in Tatura as well as a very large packing warehouse, which allows us to ship products directly from here.” The company grows tomatoes, cucu...

Deep in the Milky Way, roughly 22,000 light-years from Earth, a star unlike any other roars with a magnetic force that beats anything physicists have ever seen. With 1.6 billion Tesla, a pulsar called Swift J0243.6+6124 broke the previous record of around 1 billion Tesla, found in the vicinity of pulsars GRO J1008-57 and 1A 0535+262. For a little context, your average new fridge magnet comes in at around 0.001 Tesla. More powerful MRI machines manage to reach around 3 Tesla. A few years ago, engineers were credited with hitting the semi-respectable 1,200 Tesla, keeping it in a flash of just 100 microseconds. So it makes sense that 1.6 billion Tesla would demand some truly amazing physics. The kind that can only be achieved by massive objects crammed into impossible volumes and spinning at incredible speeds, fast enough to accelerate electrons to ridiculous speeds. Swift J0243.6+6124 is already considered a noteworthy star. A type of super-compact cosmic heavyweight known as a pulsar...

Summary: In children, traumatic brain injury can lead to reduced brain size and cognitive impairment that affects learning, researchers report. Source: Imperial College London Traumatic brain injury can lead to reduced brain size in some children and teens, which could be linked to cognitive problems, a new study suggests. People who are hit hard to the head can suffer brain injuries that result in long-term cognitive problems such as difficulty with memory, concentration, and problem solving. Researchers have been able to study this problem in adults, using brain scans to accurately measure the impact of each injury. However, this is more difficult for children and adolescents to do because their brains grow and change so quickly. In a new study, published in the journal Brain Researchers at Imperial College London and Great Ormond Street Hospital have collected detailed measurements of the brains of normally developing children and used them as a guide to help spot differences betwe...

A massive asteroid the size of BUS will make a very close approach to Earth today – and astronomers only detected it three DAYS ago The asteroid, called 2022 NF, is between 5.4 and 12 meters in diameter It will come within 54,843.9 miles of our planet at approximately 2:45 p.m. BST Experts only found the asteroid on July 4th using a telescope in Hawaii By Shivali Best For Mailonline Published: 05:38 EDT, 7 July 2022 | Updated: 05:39 EDT, 7 July 2022 An asteroid the size of the London bus will make a very close approach to Earth today, although it was only detected a few days ago. The asteroid, called 2022 NF, will be within 54,843.9 miles of our planet at approximately 2:45 p.m. BST, according to NASA. To put it in perspective, that’s just over a quarter of the distance from the Moon at its closest point to Earth, which is 225,623 miles away. Fortunately, NASA’s calculations suggest that the massive space r...
