Astronomers pinpoint launch of 'bullets' in a black hole's jet
Astronomers have identified the moment when a black hole in our galaxy launched super-fast knots of gas into space. Racing outward at about one-quarter the speed of light, these "bullets" of ionized gas are thought to arise from a region located just outside the black hole's event horizon, the point beyond which nothing can escape.

AT&T, Nokia and HTC Announce First LTE Windows Phones
After a significant expansion of its 4G network last week, AT&T and partners Microsoft, Nokia and HTC rolled out the first phones that will surf its long-term evolution data network using Windows Phone 7.The carrier took advantage of the hype at his week's International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, which runs through Friday, to introduce the Lumia 900, running the updated Mango operating system and sporting a 4.3-inch, 480x800 ClearBlack AMOLED display. Inside, the 900 packs a 1.4 gigahertz Snapdragon APQ8055 processor with 512 megabytes of RAM and its 8-megapixel camera is capable of 720p HD video recording.

"Nokia needs a smartphone device winner in 2012 in order for other carriers to offer [their] future devices and build momentum," said wireless analyst Kirk Parsons of J.D. Power and Associates. "Whether it's the 900 model or another one is too soon to predict, but given Android's and iPhone's large lead in the [smartphone] segment, it will be an uphill climb."
What kind of volume does Nokia need to qualify as a success? "If you use Apple as a guide, they sold approximately 3 million iPhone 4s in the first week," Parsons said. "The [Windows] platform has gotten good reviews and it is different from other SP devices, so it...
