Human enhancement technologies (HET) are techniques that can be used not simply for treating illness and disability, but also for enhancing human characteristics and capacities ... Existing human enhancement technologies include reproductive technology, embryo selection by preimplantation genetic diagnosis, physically enhancing drugs, cognitive enhancers, and plastic surgery. Emerging technologies include human genetic engineering and neural implants, as well as speculative technologies such as mind uploading. 2, record 2, English, - human%20enhancement%20technology

SIMBOL-X est un télescope haute énergie de nouvelle génération, couvrant par une seule instrumentation continue une gamme s'étendant des rayons X «classiques» aux rayons X «durs» ou «gamma mous», soit de 0.5 à 70 keV environ. En utilisant dans toute cette gamme un dispositif de focalisation réservé jusqu'alors aux rayons X de moins de 10 keV, via la construction d'un télescope de très longue focale s'appuyant sur deux satellites volant en formation, SIMBOL-X permet un gain d'environ deux ordres de grandeur en sensibilité et en résolution angulaire par rapport aux instrumentations classiques en X-durs. Cette gamme d'énergie est celle où les émissions thermiques laissent la place aux émissions plus dures qui signent en particulier l'accélération de particules et la dynamique de l'accrétion de la matière sur un objet central massif. 1, record 3, French, - t%C3%A9lescope%20haute%20%C3%A9nergie

Au Texas, le télescope Hobby-Eberly (HET) - une coopération États-Unis et Allemagne-a vu sa première lumière à l'automne 1997. Son miroir de 11 m, semblable à ceux des télescopes Keck, est composé de 91 petits miroirs hexagonaux d'une taille de 1 mètre, orientés de sorte à lui donner une courbure sphérique. 2, record 4, French, - t%C3%A9lescope%20Hobby%2DEberly
