Intel's Pentium /// solves mysteries of the planets !!! Tenchusatsu - listen up !!! Supercomputer solves astronomical riddle By Chappell Brown , EE Times Dec 18, 2001 (10:42 AM) URL: eetimes.com ITHACA, N.Y. — A cluster supercomputer at Cornell University's Theory Center has modeled the orbits of small moons circling the planet Jupiter over a billion-year period — a computation that took three months. Astronomers have recently found a cluster of 12 tiny moons that are only about sixty miles in diameter. One mystery they wished to explain was why these moons are moving in a highly eccentric orbit. The computation used a 256-processor cluster of 64 PowerEdge servers from Dell Computer Corp., each with four Intel Pentium III 500-MHz processors. The computation showed that the most likely explanation for the erratic orbits is that the moons are parts of a larger satellite that broke up after colliding with some other body, such as an asteroid or comet. In related news, a new muthaboard for an AthWiper MP system was announced by a SWEET !!! muthaboard manufacturer somewhere in a third world country.
