This massive 110-inch Mini LED TV from Hisense is now available for $20,000

Technology tamfitronics Serving tech enthusiasts for over 25 years. TechSpot means tech analysis and advice you can trust.TL;DR: Hisense is known for offering some of the most innovative devices on the market, though many of them never make it outside of China, the company's home turf. Fortunately, the 110-inch ULED X Mini LED TV is an exception. Priced at $20,000 through platforms like Best Buy, this colossal TV can now be yours, too. The ULED X Mini boasts a 4K Ultra HD LED display with a 120Hz refresh rate (or 144Hz with VRR enabled). The screen utilizes quantum dot technology for enhanced color reproduction, along with Hisense's Full Array Local Dimming Pro system, which divides the backlight into 40,960 dimming zones. This allows for an impressive 10,000 nit peak brightness while still delivering deep, inky blacks.The TV...

Massive SpaceX Starship Capacity Makes Radiation Shielding Easy

NASA Space Technology The radiation dose for the 2.5 year round trip between Earth and Mars should give approximately a 1% lifetime increase of a fatal cancer. SpaceX Starship will totally change the situation on payload and travel times. The Starship will be refueled in Earth Orbit. All NASA missions to Mars have launched with multiple stages get to orbit and then to go to Mars. This means the final stage that goes to Mars has to go smaller and slower. They are about 20 times smaller than the launch rocket and they go about 2-3 times slower than a fully fueled in orbit Starship.Starship could travel to Mars one-way in 70-90 days without extra exceptional effort beyond refueling in orbit. This is better than the 180-270 days of other vehicles. Reduced travel time would...

Massive Solar Storm Removed Earth’s ‘Tail’ and Gave It Wings Instead

NASA Space Technology An overwhelming solar burst from the Sun hit the Earth hard enough to change its entire magnetic field, researchers have found.Astrophysicists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center detected an explosion originating from April 2023 that disturbed its natural magnetosphere for two hours.Similar to a supersonic jet being pelted by intense high-speed winds, Earth is perpetually bombarded by a stream of charged particles from the Sun, known as solar wind.A view of Earth from the Space Shuttle Discovery shows late afternoon sun on the Andes Mountains. NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission (MMS) observed the Earth to better understand how solar winds reshaped its electromagnetic field...Getty Images Usually, the Earth moves throughout the solar system with a magnetic field shaped like a tail at its nightside during interactions with solar wind. Experts often compare...
